My wife has never been to Europe so I wanted to utilize our choice points for their best value and have a nice room with breakfast in an area close to walking to various historics sites. We enjoy little cafes, antique stores, siteseeing, and just discovering the unexpected.
Unlike in the USA, most Choice hotels in Europe do not include breakfast -- although some do. The Andre Latin does not. Frankly, I don't consider that a deal breaker because I enjoy going to the local bakeries in Paris for breakfast. Obviously, if one of the properties offered a nice free breakfast spread, though, that could sway your decision.
