Paris'te keyifli tercih
Pros:

Kahvaltı iyiydi, bahçede oluşu ayrı keyifliydi. Temiz, Konumu iyi, Personel iyi, ilgili, güler yüzlü. En güçlü tarafı Concierge Maeve, Fransa'nın en iyi concierge'i. Maeve çok yardımcı oldu, hep ilgilendi, bütün sorunları çözdü, kendisine çok teşekkür ediyoruz.

Cons:

Girişte Booking.com üzerinden çift rezervasyon görünüyordu. Sistemsel veya Otel kaynaklı bir problemdi, ısrarla benim yanlış rezervasyon yaptığımı iddia ettiler, ilk geceyi çift ödeme almak istediler. Bende bunun benden kaynaklı bir problem olmadığını, benden kaynaklı bile olsa, burada olduğumu, Paris'te konaklama tercihimi onlardan yana yaptığımı, misafirperverlik gereği böyle bir talepte bulunulmaması gerektiğini belirttim. (Sorun kendilerinden veya Booking sisteminden kaynaklanıyordu). 1 saat bu konudan dolayı odamıza giriş yapamadık ve inatlaşma sürdü. Çok kötü bir girişti açıkçası. Oldukça da olumsuz başladık, birkaç saat sonra Booking ile görüşerek durumu düzelttiler. Baştan çözülmeliydi.

A memorable and exceptional hotel.
Pros:

A very warm welcome, exceptional staff and personalised service. The location is excellent and the beautiful courtyard is a tranquil space in the middle of Paris.

Cons:

Perhaps additional waiting staff at busy times such as breakfast and dinner would reduce waiting times.
