Room Mate Alain Champs Elysées

Good location!

The facilities are deterioring. The safe box in my room did not work. The bathroom door knob in my kid's room was falling apart. On the last day, their room door did not work, due to the electronic problem!

For the price and positioning the rooms were tiny ! Adequate for a single person but if you are with two then you will frequently trip over each other. (I stayed in the premium room and dread to think the size of the executive although in pictures the executive does look a bit more comfortable). The design of the hotel is commendable but not super fantastic however it must be said that the staff at the hotel is possible the best you will find even by international standards (in other more hospitality oriented countries and definitely over and above Paris standards). I would like to stay again but only for the staff hospitality. Most likely I will seek other similar hotels to see if I get a bit more value for money.

Mixed feelings. Not entirely negative ... read in the positive section for details.

I didn't like the fact that the the hotel was undergoing refurbishment & did not have a functioning bar, & the mini bar was very poor for a 4 star hotel - 1 beer & some soft drinks only. The bathroom had cracked porcelain & rusty fittings in the bath. I have experienced far better 3 star hotels in Paris. I also requested a roomat high level, but was placed on the ground floor so woken by delivery trucks at 5 am

Good location. The staff were also friendly and helpful.

The hotel was still under renovation and the air-conditioning in our room did not work. The hotel was also poorly lit. Very tiny lift which meant having to climb up four floors.

The room design and the quality of the electrical goods in the rooms. LCD TV screen, ipod speakers etc.

The breakfast was not good value for money. The coffee and tea were served cold. Service definitely needed improving here - or avoid and eat out.
