Hotéis em Champs-Élysées - Concorde, Paris

Prós: beautiful understated furnishings. Quiet, comfortable. Great location.

Contras: Service staff arrive unannouced and just open the door asking if you need service. If I want service, I'll ask for it. Otherwise, just come in the one time during the day to clean the room. Thought this was annoying, Made me constantly hang the do not disturb sign on the door, which I'm not accustomed to doing.

Prós: Loved the room. Beautifully decorated. Wonderful bathroom. Very quiet and comfortable. Fantastic location.

Contras: The lights were very confusing. The hotel made arrangements with a car service to go to the airport. I thought the woman told me it would be 61 Euros and could be paid in cash or credit. It was actually 74 Euros and could only be paid in cash. This was the third airport transfer while visiting Paris and by far the most expensive.

Prós: Great breakfast. Large, quiet rooms. Great central location. Close to public transport to Roland Garros and only 20 euro cab ride. Walking distance of Arc de Triomphe and Eiffel Tower.

Contras: None

Prós: This staff was very pleasant.

Contras: The elevator was very slow. My room was on the 6th floor but found taking the stairs was sometimes much quicker than waiting for the elevator.

Prós: Warm and welcoming staff for 10 straight days. Great food for complimentary breakfast as well as from the restaurant for sit down lunches, dinners, and room service. Beautiful hotel with well appointed, luxurious rooms. Great extra touches like chocolates left by housekeeping or bowl of fruit for no special reason. The location can not be overstated, it is ideal.

Contras: Honestly, I’m searching my mind for something they could improve upon but the whole presentation is pretty air tight. Even the communication prior to arriving was remarkably prompt and courteous. 10/10.

Prós: Seasonal decorations are amazing in the lobby. There is a grand Christmas tree that is very welcoming and adds a cozy atmosphere. Location is great as well. Being walking distance to the Arc de Triomphe and 20 mins walk to the Eiffel was great. Also, there is the FDR metro line 1 steps from the hotel. This is an added bonus as the metro line is a great way to navigate the city. Champs Elysees was beautiful during Christmas time. The entire avenue was lit up with Christmas lights. The staff was attentive for the most part. They provided outlet converters, and a lint brush for my wool jacket. The breakfast though expensive was delicious. Marriott has an american feel to their menu which is a plus.

Contras: The check in was surprising lacking. We waited 4 hours at the hotel to check in after flying 20+ hours. It was a dismal experience that I would like to forget. Upon entering the room I was further disappointed with the design, size and view for the money i spent - $500+ per night. The decor didn't feel parisian at all (Although a subjective statement, I have other hotels in paris to compare the marriott too) It isn't that the bed wasn't comfortable, or that the bathroom wasn't great -it was. It had a large tub and bath salts, but i could have received those benefits with their basic room. The skyline view was a joke! It was a view of the vents and smoke billowing off the roofs of the next door neighbor hotels and there was nothing worth noting from our vantage point. My recommendation is that either you go all out and book the champs elysees view (street view) or book the cheapest room they have. I regret booking my room and wish I could have spent the money elsewhere.
