Hotel Francois 1er

Everything about this hotel is great. It's around the corner from the Four Seasons (Hotel George V) and is decorated in a similar manner, one-sixth the price, and has just as great of service. Luxurious marble bathrooms, spacious bedrooms, great amenities, free internet, and a great location. My room was clean and nicely decorated in an updated traditional style. The neighborhood is quiet enough to sleep tranquilly with the windows open, yet steps away from the Champs Elysees, Louis Vuitton, Hermes, Armani, etc. My only complaint was a vague smell of cigarettes in the hallways, which makes me think they need to separate the smoking & non-smoking floors. I'll be going back, if they're not sold out due to this review!

From the moment you approach, you know you're in for a lovely stay. y husband and I live in Europe and just stopped in Paris for a long weekend. The location is an ideal jumping-off point with the metro just a few blocks away. The hotel inside and out, is simply beautiful. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The standard room is small, with not much space beyond the full size bed, but that is typical for Europe. The decor is gorgeous and classic French luxury. The beds, pillows and sheets were very comfortable and the showers were also the nice rain showers. The brunch is okay - I might have done better just getting a roll and coffee at a nearby cafe - the brunch room is elegant. For a romantic weekend/getaway that feels luxurious, this is a great place to stay.

Location is central, yet on a quiet street. If you love walking you can explore many key points by walk. Rooms are small. So, get a "classic room" at the least. Room service was good, and so was the breakfast. I would certainly go back and stay at this hotel.

Hotel liegt 5 min. vom Triumphbogen entfernt. Auch den Eiffelturm schafft man zu Fuß

Nice hotel near the Champs Elysees with easy access to the metro. Hotel was quiet, clean and pleasant. We were upgraded to a larger room without our asking for it. Breakfast buffet downstairs was American style with plenty of choices. Had cocktails in the lounge and we were the only customers there, which was very relaxing.

Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Allowed us to both check in early and check out late. The concierge in particular was extremely nice and helpful, helping us make restaurant reservations, and other recommendations and suggestions during our stay. We stayed in the Classic room, which is the smallest, and were very happy and comfortable.
