HI Paris Gare de l'Est
What is your IHG Rewards Club status?
Spire
Were you (or for multi-stayers are you generally) happy with the hotel/stay?
Yes
Which room did you book and which upgrade did you receive?
Booked standard, given Executive. This was my first Spire stay. There was no mention of Spire at check in. They handed over the usual 500 point voucher. My last several Platinum stays I got a suite, but this time only an Exec room even with the hotel so empty that I got €67 rate booking just a day in advance.
Welcome gifts?
2 water bottles and an orange.
How are the rooms?
I like the rooms and suites here. They are all a bit different but have all been recently renovated. Also the lobby has been very recently renovated and looks sharp and bright. A lot better than it used to be, but functionally still the same.
What was good and what was bad?
Good:
Super cheap for Paris and I have come to like the location very much.
Bad:
Nothing other than I have come to expect a suite upgrade here.
Value for € or IHG Rewards Club Points? Would you return?
This was probably my 30th stay here so I think yes.
