Holiday Inn Gare de l'Est, Paris
What is your Priority Club status?
Platinum
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?
Standard, upgraded to a suite
How are the rooms?
Very nice. Mine seemed to have been recently upgraded. Clean, comfortable and well appointed with no signs of wear.
How is the exec. lounge?
Did not visit
What was good and what was bad?
Good: room was enormous, clean and comfortable. Location is fantastic with easy connections to everything and walkable to many points of interest.
Bad: We only got one coffee capsule for the coffee machine, so my partner and I had to duel over who got the one cup of coffee. (This is really, really minor.) Internet was a little glitchy at times, not solid enough for wifi calling.
Value for $ or Priority Club Points?
OMG yes! I can't believe they're letting rooms here go so cheap. The room was definitely upscale for the brand, based on my experiences with them elsewhere in Europe.
Would you return?
In a hot minute!
