Hôtel Madeleine Plaza

The hotel is absolutely fantastic. Perfect location within walking distance to all sights. The rooms are pure Parisian chic with great views. A true Parisian gem. Highly recommendable. Had an unforgettable stay and will be bank for sure.

The location is great. It’s 25-30 min walk to most attractions and there is a metro station right around the corner. The room and bathroom were on the older side and are quite small which made it difficult to have 2 people moving in there at once. We only stayed 2 night and were not in the room much so it wasn’t a big issues. Breakfast had scrambled eggs, bacon and bit of fruit along with a bread basket. It was just ok. The staff was very helpful and pleasant.

Have stayed there three times over the past nine years and very much enjoyed it each time. Just returned from my most recent nine day stay and it was very pleasant. Room was very small but that was all they had due to a very late reservation so I was just very pleased just to get it. Bed was exceptionally comfortable and I slept like a baby. The hotel is central to all the sights you would want to see and there is a major subway station within about 100 meters. If you are fortunate to stay on one of the upper floors facing south, you end up with a wonderful view of the Church of the Madeleine with the Eifel Tower in the distance. Plenty of good restaurants and shops nearby. Staff are very nice and accommodating. Just a great place to stay.

Pros: great location and helpful staff (which is not always the case in Paris), higher rooms facing Madeleine have a view of the top of the Eiffel Tower Neutral: smallish rooms but typical of Paris; breakfast is sufficient but unchanging everyday Cons: dated interior, especially with bathroom and toilet at separate ends of the room; low ceilings on upper floors

The one thing this hotel has going for it is its location, which is very central with good transport connections and within walking distance of most important places in "tourist" Paris. In other respects it disappointed. The rooms were comfortable and clean, but very small (like most hotel rooms in Paris). There is no public space to speak of (there is a very small area on the ground floor but that doubles up as breakfast space in the mornings). The breakfast itself was adequate. Little touches, like complementary bottled water in the room every day, were lacking, not what one would expect from a 4 star hotel. It goes without saying that there is an abundance of similar hotels in Paris, and they need to try a bit harder here if they want to capture the clientele.
