The Good:
Stylish and thoughtfully designed, this hotel whispers Parisian chic without being loud and pretentious. Free passes to museums and a complimentary coffee at the lobby bistro are nice gestures.

The location is optimal if you use public transit like me. The Air France Les Cars shuttle service picks up/drops off right across the street and Metro line M1 is half a block away.

The Bad:
I was able to use the free pass to Palais de Toyko with no issue but the jazz club seemed non-too-pleased to welcome guests using free coffee passes -- seating us at less desirable tables even though there were plenty of window seats with better views.

Checkin/checkout wait time needs improving and the queue setup for SPG gold/platinum is confusing.

SPG members may be surprised to find the SPG floor is actually the 2nd floor. Noise and light pollution from the street can be overwhelming. If you are a light sleeper, ask to be assigned a higher floor or a room that faces the courtyard.

The Bottom Line:
I would stay here again.

The Fine Print:
Reviewed room type: Executive Room (on SPG floor/2nd floor)
