That benefit allowed us to take a break and recharge at various spots near places like the Arc de Triomphe and Sacred Heart Basilica before heading back out on our exploration of the great city.

We walked from the Arc de Triomphe to the hotel - it was a great way to explore.

We walked to the Arc de Triomphe which took about an hour that was an extremely pleasant trip.

The staff were able to provide ideas for visiting the sites and were also able to book tickets for Seine cruise, Arc de Triomphe and the Louvre.

It is easy to walk to and from the Arc de Triomphe, Notre Dame, Eiffel Tower and Montmartre etc as long as you are reasonably mobile (and have comfortable shoes!).

We walked to the Louvre, Musee d’Orsey, Notre Dame, Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, Musee Rodin.

turn right for the Champs Elysee and l’arc de triomphe .

You are close to the Louvre and the City Island where Notre Dame is - other sites (Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe) are a little far,

We were able to enjoy coffee and a clean restroom near Arc de Triomphe and Saint Honore.

The Hotel Location is perfect for Shopping and Sightseeing.

The location was near many points of interest.

Can’t beat the location close to the Louvre!

Hotel is very comfortable and clean in a good location.

but we decided to try the Hotel Malte based on its location and great reviews.

Very nice and central located hotel in the middle of Paris.

Malte Hotel Paris is superbly located for Louvre visits, offering excellent value.

The location was excellent, i will return to this hotel very soon!

Hotel in a nice location would definitely stay again

The location was excellent as it is central to all major sites (only a 5 minute walk to the Louvre).

Very friendly and supportive staff, very generous hotel, perfect location, very clean and comfy room.

Room cleaned/refreshed impeccably 
Location perfect for first time visitors.

Not to mention the breakfast, room, staffs, and the best location.

Location was strategic about 10 min from Louvre and surrounded by many restaurants.

It is situated a few blocks from the Louvre, and we walked daily to so many other Paris landmarks because of its central location.

The rooms are so quaint, beds are comfortable and the whole ambiance makes you feel like you're in Paris.

The room was amazing and we got an upgrade to our surprise!

but if you want a room with a large room, book a room with a higher grade.)

The staff was amazing, water and other refreshments were always waiting in my room.

Our room was very cool and included a loft room which my daughter loved.

The room furniture is a mixture of traditional and modern style, the mini bar is included in the price.

The staff was delightful, the rooms were exceptionally comfortable, and the amenities provided an extra touch of luxury.

Mentioned our anniversary when I booked and when we returned to the room on the big day we were met with a bottle of champagne on ice and some snacks with a card wishing us a Happy Anniversary.

Best location ever the staff was super kind, the room was very beautiful decorated.

Came for our 10th wedding anniversary hotel upgraded our room on arrival which was lovely.

They held our luggage until our room was ready.

The room was very clean and had a cozy feel to it.

The room was very small (compared to American-sized hotel rooms),

The room we had was small (to be expected in Paris)

While the room was small (it is Paris, so that is to be expected), it was very clean, well-organized, and fun.

My room was really small, I would have preferred to be in a smaller hotel

The rooms are very small (typical of Paris) -

We only gave 4 stars because the rooms a bit small.

I'm very familiar with Paris hotels and know rooms are small and expensive.

The front desk personnel (Princess and another young lady) were simply engaging and gave us directions to every place imaginable in the area.

The greeting, information, and hospitality were 5 star service!

Staff is absolutely first class with their hospitality!

All the staff of lobby desk and restaurant do their best.

On arrival we were warmly greeted by the staff at reception.

Finally, the staff was very extremely attentive and always helpful.

Staff is friendly and very accommodating.

The whole staff was very friendly and accommodating.

Each evening when we returned another cheerful greeting.

The staff were always ready to answer questions and help.

They were all very helpful and answering any questions we had.

Thanks to Stephanie Cohen and to the attentive and efficient staff of MALTE ASTOTEL

location

It helped massage sore muscles after a full day of sight seeing snd climbing the stairs if the Arc de Triomphe!

We were easily able to visit many attractions such as the Louvre, Centre Pompidou, Eiffel Tower and Arc de Triomphe.

Very near the metro which was faster than uber to Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, etc.

Less than 10 minutes away from Moulin Rogue by taxi, and Arc de Triomphe is a good 20 minute walk

We walked to the Louvre, the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, Napoleon's tomb, The Seine, the Arc de Triomphe and so many other places.

but close to a Metro station, however, we walked to all the major sites within a day (Notre Dame / Eiffel Tower / Arc de Triomphe etc) quite easily.

although there is construction across the street, that can be noticed at times.

Across the Place, there was construction of a new multi-story building, so noise was a problem between around 8am to 5pm approx.

There was construction going on, so the small square facing the hotel was quite noisy at times.

The bedroom overlooked the opera area which is sadly under construction on the lower level

One thing it was not good is the front of the hotel(^_^;)It was middle of construction

but had wished they warned us about the construction.

The nearest metro station (Richelieu Drouot) was closed for construction,

The issue that compromised our stay was the construction.

My only complaint was that there was some hideous construction going on nearby that woke everyone up at 8 am with earth shattering crashing,

It's a rare thing, so imagine how disappointing it was on our 2 night stay in Paris, one of the few times we might have actually been able to sleep past 6:30am, to be woken up at 8am sharp by loud construction.

There was some construction going on out in front of the hotel during our visit, which made for a less than spectacular building facade and entrance,

but the sidewalk is still cut up, so I suspect there may be follow-on construction at a later date.

Would have been very quiet if not for the noise of road construction -no fault of hotel!

It spoilt breakfast having a pneumatic drill about 2 foot away from you and the noise was deafening.

I loved that they kept the original ceiling wool construction and just painted to match the interior.

There was some construction noise in the morning from an adjacent building and they play music in the hallways almost 24 hours a day it seemed.

I had a super comfortable bed, a luxurious bath tub, impeccable & friendly service, tasty breakfast, beautiful interior decor throughout the hotel, with a fabulous location to explore Paris.

Fantastic little boutique French hotel with a great location, Louve museum 15 mins, ritz 18 mins and Eiffel Tower 45 mins all by foot plenty of restaurants around the hotel for food also

This is a truly charming and intimate little hotel located not far from the famous Paris Opera House.

The location was perfect for us and we could not have asked for better service.

Location is excellent and quiet yet just minutes walk from cool bars and restaurants.

The location is very good, and the hotel is tucked back in a relatively quiet part of it, which was nice.

Maison Favart is in fantastic location easily walkable to the Opera and Galeries Lafayettte and so many fantastic restaurants close by.

The amenities were wonderful and the location was great with several activities within walking distance.

Great location - peaceful and very central - opposite the Opera House.

Well located, clean, stylish, yet friendly and small.

Location was excellent within walking distance of many tourist spots

Friendly, location, bedroom, whole experience was  amazing here….

The hotel is centrally located and very peaceful.

Nice location, close to the city center and a very walkable area with many restaurants.

Great location, friendly staff and great  sized room and bathroom.

but a worthwhile experience and great location to help see the sights and sounds and tastes of this beautiful city.

The rooms and lobby of the hotel are very nicely decorated.

Very cozy, the employees were very nice with the customers and the rooms were top notch.

The rooms are beautiful, the breakfast fresh and plentiful, and the whole family enjoyed the pool and spa facilities, especially the water massage bed!

Room was clean and quiet with a great view of the opera.

The rooms were beautiful and quaint and the hotel had all the amenities you could desire.

✅ Incredibly clean, excellent for peace of mind as we were worried about bedbugs 
✅ Rooms not large

The fridge was well stocked and the coffee in the room was yummy.

We enjoyed staying here on our family trip to Paris (two kids, parents & grandma - we had three rooms in total).

When we arrived back later that evening our luggage was in our room which was wonderful.

Very comfortable beds and pretty breakfast room.

My room which was facing an atrium had no view

Upon arrival we’d already been upgraded to the Chantilly Suite, which has both a spacious living room and bedroom and was beautifully decorated.

Our room was spotless, and we had amazing water pressure in the shower!

Room décor was very very good and tastefully executed.

Our room was comfortable, with a view over a quiet square.

Cons were that two of our rooms were quite small, the lift could be slow to arrive, and there was some kind of strong perfume in the lobby most days.

although rooms are a little small, the facilities and team are amazing.

The room was small and the balcony view was the wall of another building, so we didn’t use it.

I will say the rooms are a bit small by American standards,

As the floor space in the room is compromised by the main stairwell, we did find the shower room particularly small so perhaps ask for another room if space is an issue.

The fitness room is very basic - no hand weights, the room was on the small side and the air con wasn't up to much, so we wouldn't recommend staying there in the height of summer.

Our room was very small and definitely did not have a King size bed as advertised for all rooms.

but I we picked a small room since we were moving around town.

That being said, the room was very small, barely holding a queen side bed.

Rooms are small (typical for Paris hotels in my experience)

Here are some practical realities 
- Rooms are small.

The staff were very friendly and catered for all our needs.

The hotel was a lovely find, the staff were so helpful.

It is a lovely hotel, staff were very accommodating.

Couldn’t say anything more about how awesome the staff was.

I would like to say a huge ‘THANK YOU’ to all of the staff, especially Freddy, who made my husband’s 60th birthday surprise so special.

Freddy the concierge was absolutely fantastic!

Thank you so much for all your help, and your wonderful staff at La Maison Favart.

They staff was willing to help at all times and hours of the day.

The staff wear a smart uniform and could not be more helpful.

Beautiful bouquet hotel in the centre of Paris, the staff are very friendly and helpful.

The staff was five stars plus - they were all so nice and helpful (front desk, bellman, housekeeping, breakfast staff).

The concierge took our luggage and offered us a latte.

Front of House staff couldn't be more helpful especially with directions and great restaurants !

Friendly and helpful concierge greeted us.

The entire staff was professional and welcoming.

La Maison Favart

construction

However jam dispensers constantly empty, pancakes and waffles cold and the breakfast room itself freezing!

Negatives
Main big problem in Paris heat- no refrigerated air conditioning, they only have evaporated air conditioning.

The air con could have done with being turned up a notch in the hot weather.

We were besieged with electrical issues due to a faulty iron…twice it blew all the power points on two separate days….ultimately fixed after a couple of requests.

As regards the rest of the hotel, the service at the reception desk was poor in respect that we had explained the air conditioning issue to one of the receptionists who was going to fix the matter whilst we were out.

The website, app, and every document related to this hotel reservation indicated A/C would be available.

The air conditioning wasn't working the room was sooo hot!couldn't open windows because of noise.

The air conditioner struggled to keep up with the warm summer days in Paris, so sleeping was a bit sticky,

Stuff tells me that "AC is the same in all rooms".

The night before we left they offered us to change rooms, providing not feedback on the AC.

On the first night we arrived the air conditioning wasn't working satisfactorily, we reported this to reception and the next day they said they had changed the filter and it was (very slightly) better,

After 3 nights of waking up drenched in my own sweat and having considered all options (virus, aircon, stress, etc) I finally checked the bed and realised Novotel, a 4 star hotel, uses plastified matrass covers right under the bed sheet.

No portable heater available even I requested for one.

This could be such a good hotel if it would only do something about it's heating system!

Even so, we had only one outlet that was working in the whole unit.

For a 4 star hotel, the a/c definitely wasn't up to scratch and the breakfast was a mess - they could arrange two areas especially during high season.

The only complaint I might have was the air conditioning was not too powerful

They came to check the a/c and they said that it would not get colder.

The free ice cream from 4-6pm was very fun and the room service was quick. The location of the hotel was decent (walking: 1h to Eiffel, 10m to pont neuf, and 1h to Arc de Triomphe)

We also took the train which is right near the hotel to Arc de Triomphe which is just a few stops away.

You could take subway to arc de triomphe, Champs Elysees etc.

We walked to Notre Dame in minutes, the Louvre, and even to the Arc de Triomphe.

We walked to The Louvre, Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, Notre-Dame, and Saint Michel Fountain.

We love walking and spent the time wandering around Place De La Concorde, up to the Arc De Triomphe and down to the Eiffel Tower - approx 12kms round trip.

The Eiffel Tower and the Arc De Triomphe are also walking distance

The hotel is about 10 minutes walking distance to Notre Dame cathedral and Louvre and another 5 minutes to Arc de Triomphe.

The location is wonderful, in the center and just next to a main metro station.

The metro station is opposite the main entrance and if you're arriving in Paris by Eurostar it's just one stop on an RER D or B train from Gare du Nord.

Metro stations were right outside the hotel, and tons of restaurants were nearby.

the location was perfect for us, with a metro station right outside the door and just a 10 min walk from Notre Dame.

Metro station is right in front, Le Louvre is a 10 minute walk, so is Notre Dam.

Friendly staff, awesome breakfast & perfectly located near a major metro station with great connectivity across and outside of Paris.

We were steps from the metro station at Châtelet-Les Halles.

Metro station just a few feet away, easily walkable to the Louvre.

On the plus side: 
Great location - Châtelet metro station is right outside the hotel and so using public transport is super easy.

The metro station is literally 50 metres away to get everywhere around Paris.

Metro station just outside, which I used for work.

but I would preferred to have a refrigerator, the hotel is well managed and clean the service was great, the hotel is close to all attractions, lots of restaurants and bars in the area, Metro station almost in the hotel, shopping center just behind the hotel and lots of other stores, overall very satisfied

The location is perfect right on Shatlet metro station, plenty of great restaurants and patisserie.

We stayed at Novotel Les Halles for 3 nights, excellent location, 1 minute walk from a very well-connected central train and metro station, Chatelete station.

Just outside the hotel there is the main station that most of metro lines interchange

The location is very central, close to a metro station, close to great shops, bakeries and restaurants.

Few steps from the huge train and metro station.

Besides that, the metro station Les Halles is one of the main one, so lots of lines stop at it, including the one to CDG.

10 steps from a major train and metro station so very quick to and from the airport.

The hotel is at a very convenient location just right beside the metro station.

But the worse was a fire drill that launched the alarms at 120db and where we were instructed by hotel personnel to stay in our room for several minutes.

Cons: 
in the middle of construction - loud construction noises/banging/drilling starting 10am everyday for the entire 6 days we stayed.

Negatives:
1) Currently, there are some road constructions going on, so hard to get Uber to come by.

There was some construction on the streets and some roads were closed so maybe that's the reason why the driver couldn't get any closer or maybe he didn't know the right way.

Hopefully all this construction work will be done soon and this will no longer be an issue.

Someone wrote about some metro construction, it´s all done now, and you can acces the metro-rer-station right on the front door of the hotel (exit Porte m. de Navarre).

NB, there is no place for taxi to come  near to the hotel due to the construction going on  (No problem for the noise).

The only disappointments were the slow check in and the noisy construction work outside,

The only inconvenience was getting to the hotel by taxi due to the construction work which is almost complete.

Some construction in front of the hotel associated with the Metro station,

We found out that the construction has been ongoing for about a year.

There is still construction out the front of the hotel

Only downside is that it's under construction, so taxi cannot take you to front.

The construction around the hotel, which was a bit of a bummer, will be done by September.
