Call me easy to please, but, my husband and I have just returned from a one week stay at the Paris Marriott and we loved it. We arrived at the hotel at around 11 a.m. and by a little after noon we were in our room. An hour later a knock at the door brought a bottle of champagne, fresh fruit, pastries, and a large bottle of Evian. Every day after sightseeing and shopping we were greeted with a similar gift...minus champagne. We did not attend the manager's reception but it looked nice.

I thought the lobby was very pretty. The room, while not decorated elegantly, was large, comfortable and as nice as any Marriott hotel of the same rating. Marriott is not the Ritz or a romantic boutique hotel. Marble bathroom, large tub with hand held shower attachment, separate glassed in shower, three phones, balcony, very friendly staff...I just could not find anything to complain about ... especially since I did not pay a dime for a weeks stay in Paris.
