Very expensive. If it wasn't for the friendliness of the staff, I would have given this hotel a 1.
Pros:

Very friendly staff. They were very helpful and welcoming.
The location was close to the metro and Louvre, but not a clean area.
The bed and pillows were very comfortable, and the room was very spacious.

Cons:

It's a very old hotel, and it looks really rundown. It needs a lot of renovation and it wasn't clean enough.
There were no dinner facilities at the hotel, and the breakfast was very limited. Same things for the 5 days spent there. It was disappointing that omelette and fried eggs were at an additional cost because we do not like scrambled eggs. I think that was not fair at all.
Finally, it is VERY important to add that if you don't like basements, make it clear to them when you book to avoid disappointment. Because, on the first day, we got a room in the basement( which, funny enough for for them, it's not a basement, but located below road level, and at -1 in elevator it is definitely a basement for me). I refused to stay there, and the next day, we were offered one in the attic, which was better, yet not great.

A large comfortable hotel close to attractions and a great area to stay.
Pros:

The hotel is very close to restaurants, shops and public transport and a short walk to the louvre, notre dame and other attractions. We had a comfortable stay with a large space for a family of 4. We chose the 2 bedroom family suite with jacuzzi. This meant we had 2 connecting rooms with 2 bathrooms and a garden terrace area. This was perfect for us. The staff were very lovely and helpful and the breakfast was delicious.

Cons:

The only suggestion I would have is to provide a small amount of cutlery, plates, glassware, corkscrew etc in the room. We could go down to reception for these things but it would have been nice to have them available in the room.
The garden area was not maintained, with weeds in all the flower pots instead of plants. A small amount of maintenance in these areas would make the hotel a lot more appealing.

Excelente!
Pros:

Localizador excelente. Quartos amplos e confortáveis. Roupas da cama e banho novas. Funcionários excepcionais. Não cansam de nos agradar e falam muitas línguas. Fomos muito bem atendidos pela Sônia da recepção e a Joana atendendo no café da manhã, que era delicioso. Voltaria com certeza!

This hotel was an EXCELLENT choice for our honeymoon.
Pros:

The staff was absolutely fantastic. Everyone was pleasant and helpful. We opted for the additional breakfast package, and were glad we did. The bar/lounge was very cozy as well.

Cons:

The shower. The tub wall is high and there was no shower curtain (just something different when compared to hotels in the U.S.).

Pros:

My stay at the L'Empire Paris hotel was excellent. The location is fantastic, making it easy to explore the city. The room was comfortable, well-maintained, and equipped with air conditioning, which was especially appreciated during the summer. The breakfast was good and offered a nice start to the day. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and would highly recommend this hotel.
