My husband and I stayed here for 7 nights while in Paris. The staff is so friendly and helpful. We had actually booked and paid for our room and had to reschedule due to some circumstances and other hotels would have just taken our money but Madeleine was wonderful. We rescheduled w no problem. Our room was comfortable w a balcony looking over the Church Madeleine- we sat out there and drank wine and nibbled on cheeses and savored our time in Paris! The location is perfection !!! We walked all over Paris from the hotel. It's walkable to Louvre, musee d'orsay , champs elleysse, Effeil tower, opera house- there is also fantastic shopping in the area ranging from small boutiques to high end upscale prim temps ( sure that's spelled wrong lol). There are numerous restaurants and cafes- wander right out of the hotel then down the next side street to the right. The Chinese restaurant is excellent as well as cafe Pompeii- and le cafe Madeleine C-around the back of the hotel on a back street ! Back to the room- the room size was good by Paris standards. The bed very comfortable- there was a nespresso machine and small fridge w bottles of water etc for purchase. The toilet was in a separate room by itself which was nice so if one was showering the toilet could still be used in private. They have a lovely breakfast every morning included in the price of your room. Coffee, juices, water, pastries, scrambled eggs, sausages, fruit, cheeses and meats - eggs which there is a machine to boil to your liking. My husband made soft boiled eggs every day. We will stay here again!! It's not 5 star because it's not super fancy but it's a wonderful clean well situated hotel in Paris w friendly staff there to help you !! read more
