We stayed here for 4 nights in Feb-Mar 2013. Booked on a great Travelzoo rate (111 Euro). The hotel was especially busy for Paris Fashion Week. Small upgrade to an executive room, but it felt quite cramped.

In lieu of the 500-point plat amenity, we decided on the breakfast, which was the full buffet in the Latitudes restaurant (worth 29 Euro per person - a much better value, in my opinion). Guests are offered a special fruit smoothie at the entryway (part of the Jean-Georges Vongerichten experience/collaboration with Le Meridien - not featured as prominently as at the Khao Lak property in Thailand but still a nice touch). Full buffet spread of cheeses, fruits, yogurt, cereal, pastries, omelette station, sausages, bacon, hash browns ... as well as miso soup, congee, and noodles.

We took the "Les cars Air France" bus to and from CDG, which arrived and left from the stop literally across the street. Ground staff help with luggage at the airport and at all stops. It was 29 Euro return. Better to book online beforehand to get a discount.
