The room was a bit on the small side but it did have a worktop desk which was nice. No room service, you can order food via their app but you need to pick it up yourself downstairs which some might find annoying. The cleaning service were very good and even provided extra coffee pods without prompting. The hotel restaurant and bar was very relaxing and provided good service. There was a very nice red haired female bartender in particular on the evening shift who was always very genial to me whenever I visited.
Most of the staff were friendly, professional and spoke top notch English which is the only reason why I'm still giving 2 stars. Unfortunately on the last night I met a really rude reception employee called Lea who yelled at me although I had done nothing to provoke her, and she tried to make me go through a completely different process to buy the hotel snacks than I had been advised to do for the previous 4 days. And it didn't stop there... when when she was logging my purchases into the system made another snarky remark about the amount I had purchased. I am a paying customer and don't need the judgmental attitude. Aren't customers who buy the goods the whole point of having a hotel shop??
I am honestly flabbergasted that this particular receptionist had the audacity to make a comment about the quantity of stuff I had purchased as it really wasn't her place to do so.
To make things even more bizarre, according to Lea's name tag she was still a receptionist-in-training. She certainly needs more training on how to be a polite communicator and customer service. Her behaviour soured my Marriott and Paris stay and left a bad taste in my mouth. I submitted official complaints although have yet to hear back.
Small plus details: filtered water on every floor, secure elevator, view of the Eiffel tower from our room
bien sûr rien ne le prévenait j’ai perdu le contrôle de mon véhicule…
après avoir prévenu l’hôtel pour éviter des blessés (une personne était tombé à pied devant moi ) j’ai demandé un dédommagement car mon air bag moto s’était déclenché ! cela fait 3 mois et toujours aucune réponse à mes mails cordiaux !
une honte
Jeanne at the front desk was during our stay!
I will definitely come back just because of her!

The bad: little things that this brand will give you for free in other parts of the world (room upgrades, late check outs, umbrella loans) you will need to for here - everything has a price (this is more a criticism of Europe rather than this hotel brand).
The bed in my room was a very cheap fold-up kind which I was stunned to see in a 4-star hotel. The bath/shower is raised up so the step out of the shower onto the flood is quite steep (see photo) so I would not recommend for the elderly of those with mobility issues.
