Grand Hotel du Palais Royal

Short stay here in adjoining rooms. I'm not going to nitpick on our choice of rooms (first floor, fairly dark) or price since we booked pretty last minute. Decor felt a bit tired, lots of yellows, dark carpeted room, ceiling not very high for Paris. We could hear some other rooms/hall noise at night. Bathrooms were good and well-designed (no water spraying everywhere like you often get in Paris). Beds were comfortable and the HVAC system worked well to keep the room comfortable. Not enough charging ports. Location obviously excellent, quiet side street near a very busy area, a few meters to the entrance to the 1 metro at the Louvre. Breakfast on the lower end for 5* Paris hotels, not much fruit available, pastries weren't great, weirdly a la carte eggs were included in our included breakfast, but pancakes/crepes were not (had room credits anyway, but it was weird). Scrambled eggs and omelettes were not good at all, almost tasted like US-style egg mix (sacre bleu!) Overall, didn't feel like it was up to the same level of other 5* non-Palace hotels, there are better options even within the HIlton/SLH ecosystem especially if you don't need to be right in the center of Paris.

There is no shortage of fine hotels in Paris, so when you find one that does everything well, with quintessential Parisian charm, pluperfect service, and location, location, location, there is no need to shop around. The Grand Hotel du Palais is a gem, with a drop dead roof-top terrace. The service is par excellent, and a special Hat Tip to Ms. Lola Neciri in guest services, who delighted in making our son's stay delightful.

What an excellent service overall, lovely stay at great hotel and made all the more special by your wonderful staff specially the concierge team, Rafael as always was so helpful and kind, brilliant guy to deal with. As for Francine, she was brilliant, nothing too much for her, very helpful and polite with all my daughter's requests!! And Lovely Lola was also very charming and friendly. Of course, also the rest of the team in reception and the breakfast staff. As for the location, its perfect for strolling to a lot of nearby sights Area around the hotel is very quiet, just what we wanted. Well done and thank you all, we will definitely be back again here.

We stayed for 5 nights at the Grand Hotel Du Palais Royal in November. The location was perfect - 100 feet to a Metro station and one short block to the Louvre. The room was on the small side like almost all the rooms in Paris, but it was certainly big enough for a couple. There are larger room options but we used Hilton points for this stay, so that usually guarantees the smallest room when they are sold out (like they were during our stay). The service was outstanding throughout the stay. We received very good restaurant recommendations from the Concierge. The breakfast was very nice. We are Hilton Diamond members so the breakfast was included. I would definitely recommend this very nice, boutique hotel in this perfect location.

The hotel truly felt like a second home. We had terrific staff taking care of us, and we enjoyed every single day in our beautiful rooftop suite. The view was incredible, especially in the morning with breakfast served up there. I was even lucky enough to find an employee willing to fix my suitcase that was broken during our travels (Air France 🇫🇷 definitely didn’t). What a talented gentleman! The location is superb. You can easily walk to great cafés and bars, and the whole area feels charming and cozy to explore. The concierge service was genuinely 5 stars, super friendly, knowledgeable, and always on top of their game. The only part that didn’t fully impress us was the restaurant. The cuisine felt a bit ordinary, and breakfast could definitely use more flair. The coffee in particular could be hotter and more satisfying in taste. Otherwise, we absolutely loved our stay and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone. Safira at the front desk made us feel incredibly welcome, and the decor in our room was chic and elegant, like staying in an exclusive apartment. And last but definitely not least: OLGA, our housekeeper, was our favorite employee of the entire hotel. She left our room spotless every day, always with the warmest smile 😃. Her attention to detail made everything feel extra special and truly très chic.
