The front of staff chap (Eric) was the best part of our stay at this hotel. Such a nice welcome and very helpfully explained the area and gave great restaurant recommendations (Le Petit Vatel is fabulous). The hotel location is really hard to beat and is well soundproofed from any street noise. However, the internal doors bang so loud you can hear every single one from the room we were in and, although you can’t help guests being thoughtless when the come in in the middle of the night, there should be something to deaden the noise. I also hated the smell of cooking we got every morning from about 6am from the kitchens. The hotel awnings give the hotel a bit of a shabby look but the exterior belies the nicely decorated interior. It’s a very old building so you expect tiny rooms and the location makes up for that. It’s our second stay here but we just felt it didn’t live up to the first time (our room was higher up before and you didn’t hear all the noise through the floors).
