Stayed here using points in August. The redemption value was not great but this hotel definitely went over the top to make me feel special as a Platinum guest. Our stay did not start very well with no suites available so we couldn't use our SNA's. However, our very early check in request was accommodated and we were given a coupon for breakfast for the day of our check in! (we did not ask nor expected this) The room was small but we wanted to see Paris and not stay much in the room so we did not care. The hotel is right next to the train station and you can almost get to any tourist destination (except Eiffel tower I think) without changing trains. The staff is great and the breakfast has a decent spread.
