1K Hotel was a great hotel in Paris, especially with all the amenities and modern decor. My only caveats with this hotel would be 1) the service from the attached restaurant 2) the maid service and 3) the television. When we went to the restaurant to ask what the vegan/vegetarian options were (as we booked this hotel specifically because there were noted options) the hostess was downright rude. I don't think she understood what we were asking, but rather than try to help or understand, she simply said "no" and walked away. We were shocked. Secondly, we put a Do Not Disturb sign on our door for the four night, five days we were here. On the fourth day, we were in our room and heard a banging at the door. It was the maid and she kept banging until we let her in and she started cleaning! Finally, we had issues with the movies on the TV that front desk couldn't help with and said was broken. Tons of free movies to watch and none could be played.

The reception was friendly and welcoming and answer all our questions, offered us maps when we did not ask for it (Thumbs up!) Lobby had a lovely snacks and drinks corner for guest like us who are tired or hungry after exploring the city to get some snacks before going back to our room. Biscuits and sweets are so TASTY! Housekeeping was great, room is always cleaned after we are back and toiletries and teas replenished! Most value and wonderful hotel stay, after staying for 5 nights we still can't bear to leave this hotel. Pillow ann bed is super comfortable Amazing prices + Big room + Great Service. Strongly recommend travelers to stay here. Thank you Best Western!

The hotel is located within walking distance of the louvre museum. There is also a supermarket, money changer and lots of cafes around the corner. The room is quite small which they say is typical of paris hotels but nicely decorated. There is even an espresso machine! Breakfast was the best! There is also a rooftop with lots of chairs wherein you can relax.😊 The only drawback is that one of the staff at the lobby was kind of a snob.

Via a booking site, I always state my needs, eg whether I'm arriving early, etc. In most cases, these requests seem to be ignored by the hotels, and so I have to mention them again upon arrival. For this hotel, they didn't ignore the request. We requested for early check-in, not expecting too much, as we arrived Paris a little past 8am, and just hoped for a bit earlier than normal check-in time. We already planned to just drop our bags first, have breakfast, a bit of sightseeing and go back to hotel for an earlier check-in. We were very delighted that upon arrival we were told that our room is ready so we can rest after our long trip ! The reception is also very warm, I always like staff who are smiling, and they helped us with our bags. And best of all, our room was upgraded ! Location wise, the hotel is very near the metro, and also just about 10 minutes walk to La Fayette Galeries, and Opera. It's about 20 minutes walk to Louvre. The surrounding of the hotel is quiet as it's near office buildings, but still easy to move around because of the metro. There's a very nice small restaurant at ground floor which prepares fresh pizza in less than 10 min, and many other restaurants around. The best thing about this hotel are the staff -- they're all very warm and very accommodating, and knows our needs.

20 years ago, my wife visited Paris for one day trip from London. She did not stay overnight. This year, we planned for our visit to this city for vacation & shopping. I was not interested in that but wanted to visit some iconic landmarks in Paris & spend some times in the Grand Mosquee of Paris. We also need to find halal food in Paris. So our itinerary coverage in Paris was large; from Belleville to Centre of Pompidou to Grand Mosquee to Champ Ellysee to Eiffle Tower, all within 4 days. Since we never experienced staying in Paris, our decision in choosing hotel is quite blur. After considering the coverage we need to do, we decided to stay as close to transport interchange station because we need to jump to Metro as fast as we can....and the hotel must be cheap but comfortable, sounds too good to be true. We came across Le Hotel de Normandie in Agoda, low price hotel, good location & the room looks good in the picture. So we booked. The moment we checked in, we knew that we made the right choice. The staff is friendly with english speaking, the Metro station is so closed that as if it's part of the hotel & the room is so carefully finished with good material (the sanitary fittings brand is Grohe) & the bed is so comfortable. What else can we say about this hotel....it's simply brilliant choice. I would highly recommended to all travelers. A few things though, you need to bring your own mug because the hotel does not provide, but they have kettle. Ask for room facing St Lazarre for some good view, but the window is not sound proof, so a bit noisy at night. Expect the room small but for moslem there are space for pray. No halal food around, you need to travel to Belleville to find one. All in all.....book this hotel while it's still cheap and have a nice day

Despite making a last minute reservation to stay at Madeleine Plaza Hotel, our booking via Agoda was immediately attended to by the hotel staff ( I had sent them a chaser e-mail immediately because it was last minute). Our check-in was seamless and they were kind enough to allow us to check-in early after our long flight. Also, we were pleasantly surprised to be upgraded. The room, although slightly small (you'll be hard pressed to find large hotel rooms in Paris), was neat and tidy and had a beautiful view facing the Madeleine Cathedral. Only criticism of the room would be that the TV lacked English channels, but then again who would want to watch TV in Paris?? Hotel staff were always friendly, polite and ever willing to help. Of course, to top it off, the location can't be beaten, a short walk away from Place De La Concorde, The Louvre and the Opera Garnier, with loads of eateries and shopping options within walking distance as well. Overall, a highly recommended hotel.

Location was excellent since it's literally right in front of Esplanade de La Defense metro station. The room (bed, pillows, bathroom) were great, though the air conditioning could have been a bit colder. However I do have one bad review - the receptionist was very curt. He didn't really do a good job of making me feel welcome, and he wasn't familiar with Agoda so I was asked to forward my agoda confirmation email thrice. It took 30mins to check in, after which he asked me to wait for his colleague to take my bags for storage. I waited 15-20mins, finally got impatient so I asked a different receptionist for bag storage and she immediately accommodated me. The rest of the staff were really extra polite and helpful, it's just that one man at the reception who was a bit unfriendly.

The overall stay was quite enjoyable. When we arrived I found out that we had only booked a double room and we were traveling with our four year old so the hotel upgraded our room to a suite with a pullout bed which was great because the room was much bigger. I had read some whining about the hotel in some reviews before I went there but I found it hard to see where the complaints were coming from. It is a very big hotel so of course you won't get the care and attention of a boutique hotel or B&B but the staff were very friendly and helpful. The wifi was said to only be for two hours but I went to the front desk to ask about this and you can actually just log back in after the two hours and keep going which was one of the complaints that I had read. Also make sure to bring your speedos if you plan to swim as it is apparently the law in France that you must wear them. I was able to go around the corner and buy a pair from the swimming pool for 11 Euros. Make sure to save time for breakfast as the buffet is quite nice, my daughter enjoyed this every morning. The train station is only a few minutes walk but I found that the bus, which was only 5 minutes away as well, was much much more convenient. Speak to the concierge for directions as they were very helpful, even tried to find me a place to rent or buy a stroller as my daughter was finding it hard to keep up with all the sightseeing.

- Best Hotel is right. But I think the hotel is not 5 star. - Room was very clean as 5 star! - Breakfast was good! - Location was good. Very closed from Liege station. But i visited used from rossisy bus and taxi. - Hotel bed was too soft. if you like soft bed. This hotel is a good choice. If i visit in france. I will use same hotel than hilton hotel. Thank you for everything.

Apart from the early slight inconvenience of the taxi not being able to find the hotel (we end up being dropped off nearby and having to walk to look for the hotel) and some noise from construction work outside the hotel in the early morning and late night revelers, I am pleased with my choice. Ref finding the hotel, it would have helped if on booking, there were instructions to us on how to locate the hotel. I had a apartment for 4 of us and it was adequate with a double bed and a fantastic sofa bed for 2. Room cleaning was not the best I have come across but adequate. More importantly, for non french speaking visitors like myself, the hotel staff well helpful, fully conversant in English and helped in giving directions to the metro and areas of interest. Its also walking distance to the Lourve museum. Little touches like readily available hot beverages in the lobby area are fantastic coming back into the hotel after a day out in the cold in December. Availability of food is not an issue as there are many restaurants to choose from nearby the hotel.

we had a fantastic four days at our hotel. the location was excellent. when we exit our hotel, we literally looked right onto the eiffel tower. what we enjoyed most was that its location was not near a noisy area, but yet close enough to the scenic areas. also very near the metro stations, to easily connect to champs elysees, the louvre, arc de triomphe and many other cultural museums and site seeing. we enjoyed the boat cruise on the seine river tremendously. mecure eiffel hotel gave a complimentary suprise cruise on our arrival. what an awesome experience!!! many thanks. mariam and maaliyah.

If you planned to stay for more than a couple of days (since there is a kitchen in the room, in case you want to cook something) and wish to enjoy the Eiffle Tower view in bedtime. This is a place, but you have to specify the room with Eiffle Tower view. Mr. Alexis is one of the great staffs I am impressed, all of them are great in assiting. Plus, the metro station is just right in front, with 3 metro lines (and a lift, which is rare for metro station in France). Walking distance to Eiffle Tower with fairy safe neighborhood at night. Will come back here again if there is any chance.

I was delighted we booked this hotel. The rooms were incredibly quiet, clean + beds were comfortable, perfect for my mum + sisters. Facilities in the hotel are very basic but that didn't make a difference to us. One touch I really liked was the provision of all kinds of water from a machine and hard sweets free of charge. The location is very good in the opera district bad beside the shops. Staff were helpful when needed. My mum and sister had breakfast there one morning. My mum was happy as it was simple and very basic as she wanted. My sister was less impressed and I was glad the two of had not wasted €15 each. We ate in a restaurant right beside the hotel recommended by the receptionist which was really lived and very casual. A few things they could improve on is their hotel booking system, in particular the very useless IM chat. Also I emailed for help beforehand and the response was unhelpful.The hotel is lacking a personal touch.

This hotel was perfect for me. It was one block from the Metro, had the best restaurants that were reasonable priced, great stores for gifts. Also, across the street from the hotel is a bakery that makes fresh baguettes every morning - they're still warm from the oven when you buy them. The hotel was exceptionally clean and very comfortable. I was so happy I selected that hotel and when I visit Paris again I only want to stay there.

This was our third trip to Paris and this is certainly the best hotel we have stayed at compared to the dives we have stayed in on previous visits. It costs a bit more than some hotels but staying in Paris is not cheap if you want good accomodation.The hotel is clean and offers all modern facilities. The staff were excellent and very friendly and helpful. The photos are an accurate reflection of the property and it will probably be better once they have completed all their renovations. The food prices in the restaurant were quite reasonable given the tourist location and some of the other hotels in the area. The location is superb with the Louvre and the Tuilleries across the road. It is als close to most of the other major tourist attractions.The metro is approximately 30 meters across the road and there are lots of little cafes very close by. I would thoroughly reccommend this hotel to anyone who wants value for money and a great location. The only thing I think they need to provide is coffee and tea making facilities in the rooms. This was also lacking in a 5 star hotel we stayed at in Epernay so it must be a common theme in French hotels. Overall I think it is excellent and I would happily stay there again.

i thoroughly enjoyed my stay at beauchamps hotel, paris. the front desk was helpful in arranging an early check-in for me after a 14 hour flight so that i can freshen up before my 12noon meeting & i was pleasantly surprised to discover the cup of caffe i had in the restaurant while waiting for the room was complimentary! also a delight to know that my luggage was sent up to the room even before i was informed that i could use it! it was also an extension of their good service for the concierge to walk me out of the hotel to ensure i got into the right cab they called for me. the room & decor was lovely & contemporary with good standard of hygiene & cleanliness (the towel rack was even heated so it was great to have a warm towel after shower especially in february!) & the bed was very comfortable! (if only there were more selections of english programmes on their cable tv - the only english shows were the news channels.) the proximity to both champs elysee (just 5-7 min walk) & to rue faubourg st honore (about 10 min walk) is great! lots of cafes & restaurants nearby too! only problem i faced was the noise from the clubbers across the street & irate motorists honking...not sure if the hotel could upgrade their windows to be more sound-proofed from external noise...then the rooms would be perfect for a 3-4 star hotel! beauchamps hotel is a definite choice for me if i should visit paris again! great price for the comfort, location & wonderful service!

We stayed at the largest suite. The suite was exclusive, clean and with AC. I loves the decor. A plus for the Nespresso and the Clarins products in the bathroom. We really enjoyed our stay. The staff was so friendly. We asked for a early check in and a late check out, and they did their best to manage our wishes. I’ve been to Paris a lot and always stayed in 4-5 stars hotels. This suite apartments is small but definately in class. I will definately come back again.

We were extremely happy to have found this cozy hotel in Paris city center and would love to recommend it to all our friends. First of all, the location is superb -- 1.5 blocks away from Champs Elysees (Franklin Roosevelt roundabout). Very easy access to metro station and convenient to reach literally all tourist places in the city. There are also many choices of eateries right next to the hotel including a 4.5-star Crepe restaurant. The hotel was remodeled in 2009 with artistic internal decoration. Though small, the room was equipped with modern-styled furniture and decent brand bathing supplies. Last but not the least, the hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. They spoke good English so there was no trouble in communication at all. They helped us print papers without charge; they provided umbrellas; they booked taxi; and they let us store some of our luggage for more than a week (we left Paris and returned there later). We will return to the same hotel next time we are in Paris for sure!

very happy when we arrived at this hotel. not only is it in the heart of paris but right off rue champs-elysses! our hotel room was lovely ~ we had a street facing room with a small double-door window which you could open. we could see the arc de triomphe. room :- was reasonably sized, has tasteful décor and furniture, a good bed which gave me the best sleeps after each and every tiring day exploring the city. a/c worked a treat and we had free wi-fi. bar fridge under the desk. bathroom was reasonably sized as well with a heating rail. shower over bath. wardrobe with a safe, extra blankets and pillows. some traffic noise can be heard but not an issue when the windows are closed. location :- just off the charles de gaule roundabout where the arc de triomphe is. metro station is about 150m away from hotel doorstep. the trains at this station take you down the main drag of champs-elysses and to the louvre museum. in the opposite direction is a wonderful bakery, a couple convenience stores and a good few bistros. service :- all the staff we encountered spoke english and were very welcoming. no issues with check-in or check-out. room was cleaned and tidied everyday. did not have breakfast at the hotel, so no comments about the food service. value for money :- all in all we had a good and pleasant stay at this hotel. by booking with agoda we got a very reasonable price for the room per night. very happy with the whole experience … will stay there again, will recommend to others and will continue booking with agoda.
