The Westin Paris - Vendôme: отзывы

We stayed at the Westin for a week in May-2024 for a trip. The location of the hotel is fantastic - within walking distance to so many Paris highlights. The preparation for the Olympics was in full swing so lots of the monuments were blocked off or had scaffolding around them. Location, Water pressure, comfortable bed, and the staff is where the ‘Pro’s’ stop and the ‘Con’s’ start. We have stayed in major European cities many times so we have some idea of what to expect. The hotel rooms remind me of dark and dreary dorm rooms. The rooms are small and there is limited room to put your luggage, minimal charging ports in the sleeping area, no outlet in the bathroom, no full length mirror and only one person can fit on the bathroom at a time. The view was of the interior courtyard roof, so no view, unless you like that. To get into the shower you have to step up about 1.5 feet(.5 meters) (water pressure was great!) so be careful if you have limited mobility. Every 1.5 minutes there is a rythmic thumping sound that goes on for 6 seconds (I literally counted because it was so annoying) and you can hear upstairs moving around and anyone walking in the hallway. There is no hotel store to get snacks or the like but the front desk is great with offering a bottle of water. The doormen are great to get you a taxi and the bar staff is excellent. In conclusion, I would stay here again if someone else is paying. If you are used to Westin properties elsewhere, this is not that, look elsewhere. Else, this hotel is simply OKAY.
