 External noise from bars and restaurants in street below Ok if you keep windows shut and use ac otherwise definitely a problem No parking on site despite it saying so on Booking com You have to use 3rd party parking at euro 35 40 for 24 hours Very small feel to the hotel almost as if you are entering an apartment block and not an hotel Very poor that restaurant was shut for dinner without prior notification and because the Telegraph had recommended it so highly It is tiny however and the food would have to be really good to make up for the lack of space Breakfast looked like a buffet a good b b would serve up Rather disappointing experience given rooms are average in terms of decor etc and nothing really exceeds your expectations and you hope for nothing going wrong 
 Booked this hotel on the strength of booking com reviews and for English customers more particularly on the strength of the overly gushing reviews in the Daily Telegraph travel article of the most romantic Paris hotels dated December 2016 DO not book here on the strength of that review as it is over sold First of all the hotel is in an excellent location just off the Champs Elysee It is in a narrow side street It has a nice frontage but very small foyer which can be a problem if several guests arrive at thew same time The feel is quite nice and the ambience relatively quirky particularly when you take the old lift Room were well appointed with good linens and furnishings Our room 43 had a very small balcony almost too small to actually use other than to step out on but added to the ambience of what was quite a small space Hard flooring did not lend itself to luxury Bathroom and separate toilet were ok but nothing special and the toilet would be too small for very large people The reception service and assistance was good as was the cocktail bar with extremely nice drinks Expensive though All in all a good stay in a hotel missing the mark as an altogether quirky boutique stay
