    Clean rooms, friendly staff, great recommendations. Our family enjoyed our stay here. Next to Accor stadium and across street from Gare de Lyon. Fantastic bakeries nearby and close to the Seine so you can walk to many things in the other side of the river if you need to. We had a family room that had a sofa that turned into a comfortable bed. The bathrooms were roomy. The tub was elevated which is something I had never seen before. Great to bathe kids but tricky for adults if you are elderly. Restaurant on site which we didn't get to try. But it looked really nice and had a big bar. On Sundays they have a big brunch that looked appetizing based on the flyer in the elevator. We stayed on the 10th floor and the view was wonderful.

    Great hotel + great location when visiting Paris + wanting to see the sights! Right off the GARE DE LYON train station which gives you access to every major sight and very easy to use! Rooms are great and clean. That's a plus. Area is filled with restaurants for late night eats and typical breakfast cafes for the A.M. The hotel staff is very nice, HOWEVER, there needs to be a better way to do check ins. We have arrive after a long overnight flight from the US (Los Angeles) we checked in way before check in time. We were told our room wasn't available but to try back around 12. No big deal. However we come back at 12 only to see tons and tons of people waiting to check in! The hotel needs a pre check in list or some sort of list of people waiting to check in.. so we can see when people got here versus their check in time. Of course status's and different room type matter but the front desk was not on the same page. We sat and watched. Some people were able to swipe their credit cards and get the check in process started while others were simply told to come Back.. they need a better way to alert you when the room is available! Luggage room: needs better security we were able to put our bags in but when we returned it was full and we were simply just allowed to walk in and grab our bags which is alarming bc we really could have grabbed anyones bag.. Once we got in around 330pn we were excited and rest of the stay was easy.. just check in needed to be better

    Beautiful hotel with wonderful staff. Buffet is fantastic! Views from room are jaw dropping. Metro is steps from hotel and fantastic restaurants near by. We really enjoyed staying here and grateful it was available however I feel an obligation to tell my fellow spoiled elite reward members to be prepared for no extras like room upgrades or breakfast being included.

    I was unsure whether to give this hotel 4 or 3 stars...if 3.5 was an option I would have chosen that. Luckily I was able to stay using points. The positives: The front staff is polite and they do speak English so that was a plus. You are entitled to a complimentary drink on the day of arrival and the staff made me a nice "mocktail" with juices. It is also very secure with security in the front and an elevator system which requires scanning your room key to go up. I also arrived early and they let me check in early into a different type of room than I had originally booked (but at the same price point). Now for the negative: whilst public transportation is nearby, it is extremely difficult to get an Uber or taxi from this location. I am not sure as to what the cause is of that but it was extremely frustrating and wasted a lot of time on both days I was there. While the room may look clean, it's not. There was a lot of hair (that wasn't mine) all over the carpet, crumbs, etc. One of my mugs (for coffee/tea) was noticeably dirty (from a prior stay)--when I asked for it to be replaced, they simply half heartedly rinsed it in the bathroom sink and put it back. Yuck. I didn't feel like using any of the cups/mugs after that. Housekeeping was also overly assertive knocking on my door at 10 am on a weekend. Not sure if I would go back to this hotel but considering it was nearly free, I shouldn't complain too much about it.

    I had a great 3 night stay here! All of the Marriott properties in Paris have a ridiculous points redemption rate of 50k+ per night and the Courtyard is the only one with a reasonable redemption rate of 35k/ night. We arrived on a Wednesday afternoon and my check-in process was a breeze. The front desk attendant spoke perfect English and we were checked in within 10 minutes. This property is located near the metro station which makes it perfect for traveling around Paris, you're only a 10 minute walk away from the metro station which will get you to Versailles. We were on the 14th floor and had a gorgeous view of Paris, our room got a ton of light. If you have elite status breakfast is not included as a complimentary which wasn't a big deal since there are a bunch of patisseries nearby (and even a Starbucks right next door). If I come back to Paris I'll likely stay here again just due to the reasonable points redemption rate!

    Gare De lyon transit station

    I really liked this hotel. It was a breath of fresh air being close to the city and close to one of the largest transit stations in the city (Gare de Lyon). It is a 2 minute walk from Gare de Lyon. I wish I could explain to you how to exit Gare de Lyon to get to the hotel, but pretty much any door you exit out of upstairs, you can get to the hotel. I will say, I was a little disappointed that our room was not immediately ready since I received a text to check in the day prior. However, it took only about 5 minutes for them to get us a room. I'm not sure if they switched us or not. The hotel is very clean and the staff was top notch. Very friendly. The bar/restaurant downstairs was very nice and had a romantic touch. However, the drinks were very overpriced. We were given an upgraded room, 1212, which had a view of the city. That view was gorgeous! Unfortunately our room was not facing Eiffel Tower but we were able to see other sights such as the transit station and the Sacré-Cœur Basilica. Beautiful at night and just as beautiful in the daytime. The room was spacious and the pictures are accurate. The bathroom was very modern. So modern there was no shower curtain on the shower nor a shower door so be mindful of that. There was a large tv in the room but unfortunately, the connect my device feature wasn't working and that really dampened our mood. That is why I took off one star. They also have free coffee in the lobby until 3pm, which I did not become aware of until later in my stay so that was unfortunate. We actually witnessed a protest/riot between the transit strike workers and the police and we felt very safe in the hotel even with it being quite dangerous outside. After we checked out, my partner realized he left his souvenirs. We contacted the hotel and they immediately let us know that they had found them and would ship them to us. Great service. Don't hesitate to stay here. Plenty of food options in the area too. Again, you're close to transit and can get anywhere relatively quickly.

    Place Vendôme, 2ème

    This review is long overdue, but very much deserved. We booked five nights at the Park Hyatt…read moreParis-Vendôme as part of the European leg of our honeymoon in October 2025, arriving from London via Eurostar into Gare du Nord. From there, we took the metro to the Opéra station in the 1st Arrondissement and walked to the hotel. After a long day of travel, we were tired and a bit flustered, and handed our bags to the bellhops without properly identifying ourselves. This led to a brief mix-up locating our luggage, though it was ultimately our own fault as we had given my wife's name rather than mine, which is what the reservation was under. Everything was safely stored in the back, and it was sorted out without issue. At check-in, our Guest of Honor booking was immediately recognized and we were upgraded to a room with a balcony overlooking Place Vendôme. The front desk apologized for the lack of suite availability but assured us we would love the room, and they were right. We were welcomed with a bottle of champagne and a chocolate cake in celebration of our honeymoon, a genuinely lovely touch. The lavender pillows from the pillow menu and our requested mattress firmness, both submitted weeks in advance, were honored to perfection. The hard product was of very high quality. While I understand the critique some make about the décor feeling dated at this price point, I personally appreciated the classic Parisian character of the space, with its warm wood tones and gold accents. The shower setup was one of the most unique we've encountered. And being on a high floor with a direct view of Place Vendôme? That's the stuff of dreams. The soft product matched every bit of it; the service throughout our stay was warm, attentive, and consistently made us feel like the trip was being taken care of. We left the champagne and chocolates to explore the neighborhood and quickly discovered that nearly everything we wanted to see was either within walking distance or a short metro ride away. That first night, we got wonderfully lost wandering into the 8th Arrondissement before settling in for a late dinner at the bar of La Petite Vendôme, sandwiches and fries included. If you know, you know. Seats are hard to come by, so reserve well in advance. Breakfast each morning at Café Jeanne was a genuine highlight. Between the super fruit bowl, made-to-order eggs, eggs Benedict, premium coffee, and the shakshuka that I personally could not get enough of, it was a wonderful way to fuel up for the day. As Globalist members with the Guest of Honor benefit, breakfast was fully included, along with a glass of very nice champagne. Refills were offered, and while it certainly wasn't bottomless, two glasses of quality champagne to start the morning was a very welcome touch. Communication with the concierge in the months leading up to our stay, and on the day itself, was seamless. Museum and restaurant reservations were handled in advance, and the team was able to secure tables at some genuinely difficult spots. If you're staying here, lean into that perk early and often. All in all, we couldn't have asked for a more magical first stay in Paris. In our view, the Park Hyatt Paris-Vendôme lived up to its Palace status at the time of our visit, and we hope it earns that designation back in the future. Our stay was nothing short of superb. Effortless luxury, start to finish. We would love to return in the future!

    My mother is a diligent Hyatt Globalist, and last year, she used just about all her points to do…read morethe ultimate Hyatt booking: four rooms at the Park Hyatt Paris-Vendome, for 45,000 points per room per night, for a big C. family vacation. That rate has since climbed to 75,000 points, and I don't think any of us are likely to go back for all that. This was a free stay for me and my crew, so let me start by saying the hotel was generally very nice. The location was excellent, central and close to transit, and the common areas were opulent and attractive. Everyone I interacted with on staff was polite and helpful, and housekeeping did good work. I also appreciated the complimentary wine and chocolates left in our room, and the breakfast and dinner at the lobby restaurant. My brothers and I had rooms on the 4th floor, while my parents were in a suite on the 6th. My room had a king bed and room for a rollaway, which my kids took turns sleeping in when they weren't just piling onto our bed. The rooms were comfortable and upscale, if more in line with 45,000 points than 75,000. No wow factor, and some things felt weird and old. The outlet situation wasn't great. There were no adaptors, and there were a couple USB ports, but they were for smartphone cables from like five years ago. The lighting was also nuts. We wanted to turn off most of the lights when our kids went to bed, but keep one on so we could hang out in the room. There was legit no way to do this, and we sat in the dark rather than have spotlights keeping our kids awake. These are minor complaints, which I might have ignored if not for my big complaint: the planned power outage on the last night of our stay. We were not notified of this outage in advance of our trip, and only learned about it through a printed letter left in our room. The power outage was scheduled for between midnight and 4:30 in the morning, an we found out about it when we returned to the hotel after midnight and learned the elevators weren't running. We walked up the stairs and spent the night in an overheated room with no electricity in the middle of July. It was really unpleasant. When we woke up, we learned the electricity was still partially out, and neither of our phones had charged. My husband's phone was dead, and he went downstairs to get it charged and complain to the front desk. He told them that the hotel shouldn't have been open for business, and they offered to refund my mom 45,000 points, the cost of our room for that night. This was a good start, but only accounted for one of our four rooms. When we compared notes with my mom, we also learned that a hotel employee had opened the door to our room that night while she was in there watching our sleeping children. He didn't announce himself until she asked who he was and chased him out, and when she inquired with management about what happened, they told her we'd requested help with a safe. This wasn't true, but they acted like it was, and were generally dismissive and unapologetic. My mom ended up emailing management about all of the above, and they were, overall, dismissive and unapologetic. At some point, they did quietly give her the 45,000 points promised to my husband, but there was no other acknowledgment that she had been inconvenienced. As my husband pointed out, the hotel wasn't fit to be occupied that night, and there must have been a meeting to discuss whether or not to close for business. Management must have decided that would be too expensive, and that the letter would be sufficient. Look, I'm not a difficult customer, and I certainly don't go around complaining about fancy hotels. But our Park Hyatt experience was a solid B. I wouldn't recommend it, especially not at the new rate.

    After a lot of researching and back and forth I selected Hotel Diana for my 4 night stay in Paris…read more I booked directly through their website which was super easy. I selected the queen size bed room - my close friend selected the full size bed room. We arrived in the early evening and check in was quick. Fortunately the lift /elevator was working as we had a lot of luggage it all fit as well as myself . The room was small and basic, which I expected being in downtown Paris. The bathroom was simple with a bathtub shower combo. The bed was comfortable and there was a working a/c however it didn't really get the room super cold but kept it comfortable for summer. Fortunately the heat wave was over by the time we arrived. Tne bathroom did get very warm if you were styling your hair or doing your makeup. I would suggest bringing a small portable fan with you if coming in tne summer . The location is the selling point of this hotel. Walking distance to so many cute restaurants and cafes. 5 minute walk to Notre Dame and the Sienne River. Felt perfectly safe walking around day or night even solo. Usually there were young men working the front desk. They were always polite however I wish they were able to provide a little more suggestions where to go or how to get around for a first time visitor. Great budget hotel in the 5th.

    When reading this review, you must consider the typical budget Parisian hotel: small, cramped…read morebathroom, lack of AC, etc. This hotel more than adequately addresses them all. The room that we had was relatively spacious, with a double bed and some room to move around. The mattress was very comfortable and linens were perfectly clean (no gross bed covering that you typically find in hotels). There was also a relatively spacious bathroom with a nice bath tub (a good find in Paris). The room had quiet, perfectly-working AC and the Wifi was free. There was also a safe in the room. We were basically on a roll. The room also had double windows, which eliminated the noise from the adjacent street (this was amazing). The location is also quite nice. It's in the Latin quarter, walking distance from Notre Dame, Luxembourg Gardens, and the Sorbonne. Metro access is easy as well, in fact it is on a direct RER B line from CDG airport (station St.Michele) Plus, I haven't even gotten to the best part, which was the breakfast. It was 8 euros, and there was a plentiful selection of breads, jams, cheeses, yogurts, fruits, and cereals. All was super tasty. Plus the coffee and hot chocolate were delicious, brought out in small cute pitchers so you could have a nice servicing. We went all around France during our trip and I still remember the drinks there. Yummy. Overall, the price was right, the location was good, and the rooms were great. I would recommend it to anyone.
