Perfekt, wenn man 'mitten drin' sein möchte.
Pros:

Wir lieben dieses Hotel. Die Lage ist außergewöhnlich gut, nah dran an vielen wichtigen Attraktionen Paris. Die Anbindung an 'RER' und Metro könnte besser nicht sein. Hunderte von - teils guten - Restaurants fußläufig zu erreichen, Notre Dame und die Seine quasi 'vor der Haustür'. Aus der oberen Etage kann man jeden Abend den Eifelturm blitzen sehen. Das Zimmer hatte einen Safe und einen Kühlschrank, was mir sehr wichtig ist.

Cons:

Die Abflüsse der Waschbecken waren anfangs verstopft, der Mangel wurde aber schnell behoben. Ein Handtuch war nicht sauber, hatte noch Make-Up-Flecken. Anfangs kein Kaffee auf dem Zimmer, wurde aber nach ein paar Tagen nachgefüllt. Alles in Allem keine ernsthaften Mängel, nur Kleinigkeiten.

Great hotel at the best location
Pros:

Location was a 10!
Bed soft and comfy. Service was good, nothing to complain about.

Cons:

I asked for a room with balcony but maybe none were available and our room had a really dull view of the inner court yard. That was bit disapponting.

BEDBUG WARNING!

A very expensive two-hour stay

My husband and I booked this hotel very deliberately for a 6 day anniversary stay in Paris and had been looking forward to it for a long time. Instead, after roughly two hours in the room on our first evening, both of us had developed multiple fresh bites consistent with bedbug exposure and could not remain there. We reported the issue immediately to the friendly receptionist and in writing to Booking.com who never responded.

The hotel was quick to suggest another property, but it was in a different arrondissement and not comparable to the stay we had carefully planned. So later that evening we were left searching last-minute for a suitable nearby hotel by ourselves, dragging with our luggage across rainy crowded Paris.

What followed was the most disappointing part. We were later told that the hotel’s own internal check found no insects in the room, case closed. As bedbugs are notoriously difficult to detect, and no independent professional third-party report was ever shown to us, this did not resolve the issue for us. Good we’d made some photos of the bed bug damage ourselves. Eventually only some small hotel city tax was refunded; the room charge for our four unused nights was kept by the hotel, even though we had only been in the infested room for about two hours.
We later noticed an earlier public Booking review also mentioning bedbugs at this property, which made the experience even more concerning.
We are leaving this review to help fellow travellers — especially couples planning a romantic weekend in Paris — avoid seeing a long-awaited stay unravel in the same way. Where we expected hospitality, we received Henri IV management’s hostility.
