 While the room was gorgeous the mattress was broken down On the first night after a long day of business meetings got back to the room and collapsed in bed only to wake up a couple of hours later with severe pain in the hip Eventually I found one part of the mattress that wasn t totally broken down and managed to sleep through the night In a similar vein visually the bathroom was beautiful but the shower was designed by someone with a wonderful design aesthetic but no concept of practical use 
 The hotel is beautiful A great deal of attention has gone into eye catching design Location is great close to the Seine a couple of blocks from the National Assembly and a few minutes walk to the wonderful Left Bank area
