Grand Hôtel Du Palais Royal  

Bona situació, preu excessiu per la qualitat de l'habtació només comprensible per estar situat a 300 metres del Louvre.

It's proximity to the Louvre and central Paris.

It is an expensive hotel for 3-Star, relying on its location to achieve that price. Its technological services - TV and more importantly wifi - are unsatisfactory and unreliable, so if connection to the internet is important for you, then this is not the place. The operating structure for this hotel is in 3 parts and only reception is located at the hotel. This means any real issues cannot be resolved at the hotel and must be attempted to be resolved by correspondence, only after payment of the account. Apparently rectification is sometimes offered in the form of complementary champagne or a complimentary day stay on your next visit, but not a refund or credit to your credit card.

Location is as close as you can get to the Lourve, metro and central Paris. The room was a little on the small size but very very comforable. We had a view of the Lourve and the Eiffle Tower from our window. It was very convienent to arrive on the metro and just walk the 100 meters to the hotel. It is so close to the Lourve and all the other places of interest are within walking distance.

No fridge in the room and the exorbitant charge for water. Also needs to provide safe in rooms

Location excellent, just meters from the Louvre. Good value for money. Breakfast was very good. Staff very friendly and helpful. Room small but well equipped.

Room was very hot, although the heating was turned off. It might be a one-room problem, though. Internet connection very slow, apparently because too many guests logged on at the same time, according to staff; this would point to insufficient bandwidth.

I liked that despite the fact the fruit Salad I ordered late at night being un available, the concierge brought up an apple and a pear so as to satisfy my craving for fruit. I didn't ask for this and was happy to go without, this was a really nice gesture. I was also not charged for the apple or the pear which I also thought was very nice. The apple was crisp and the pear was ripe and juicy. The service was excellent. Great attention to detail.

It was a shame that the fruit salad wasn't available. The menu said I could order anything up until 1:30am. I was still very pleased with the apple and pear though. Especially the pear.

Very small room for lot of money.

Great location. Friendly and helpful staff. Free computer in the lobby. Good breakfast. Would stay there again.

Bad acoustic isolation: you can hear everything that goes on in the corridor and the other rooms (bathroom included) - every flush, hairdryer, conversation, alarm clock, a/C... Also, no mini-bar, small closet. But still, a great hotel.

Walking distance to the Louvre. Hotel staff were helpful and spoke English. I was fortunate to have one of the updated sleeping rooms that included a sleeping area.

The only downside to my sleeping room was that it had a moldy smell.

The location was the best! Barely 3-minute walk to the Palais Royal Musée du Louvre metro station (lines 1 & 7 - line 1 is my favourite line with many stations to key attractions and connecting lines). It is also a short walk from the Louvre. The hotel is situated on a well-lit lane off a busy street so I always felt safe walking to and from the hotel - I'm a woman travelling alone so this is a key point for me. The hotel staff (English speaking) were always smiling, friendly and eager to assist. The room was clean, comfy and well-sized (I requested a good-sized room when I made my booking) - my brother tells me I'm too picky about these things so you can be assured it really was of good standard! The buffet breakfast was really good. Wide variety of tasty fare and guests are welcomed to bring some back to their room too so that was great for a snack to take along while sightseeing. Free wi-fi was also one of the crucial things for me. Altogether, it isn't cheap I must admit, but I would certainly stay there again because of the excellent & safe location, lovely staff and comfy room. It was good value for the money spent!

It would be great if there were tea/coffee making facilities in the room. Having said that, the hotel staff were happy for me to go to the kitchen and fill a teapot with hot water so that was nice. A safety deposit box would also be a good plus. Oh, I found the hairdryer somewhat cumbersome to use and it wasn't very hot either.

Location

There was no safe and no mini-bar in my room

Friendly staff. Lovely clean room. Great Location. Could not ask for more. Paris is beautiful and if we ever came back we would stay at the Grand Hotel Du Palais Royal without hesitation.

Superbly located, close to Louvre, Tulleiries, Place Vendôme, Opera, Palais Royal... In my particular case, I had to attend a business meeting in a building less than 100 metres away. There is a tube station (lines 1 and 7) 50 metres away from the hotel. In a nutshell, UNBEATABLE LOCATION.

The room was not very clean and the wifi internet connection, although it is fully free, is terribly slow and connects and disconnects every now and then. Don't expect a 'king-size' room. However the bed is pretty OK. In summary, reasonably recommendable especially if you don't have a lot of expectations.

It was close to the metro with easy connections to the rer at Chatelet (just 2 stops away)

Breakfast was nothing special. Rooms were small but adequate. No real atmosphere to the hotel, and not a great view.
