Had a great 6 night stay to start the year there for my return. Used a TSU plus paid upgrade. Was first shown to the attic suites with the slanted roofs, and I asked about a lower floor with normal ceilings and got a lovely prestige suite. (To be honest, if the slanted roof didn't bother you, it was an amazing suite, larger than the prestige even though it was a category down).
The rest of the stay was amazing. A lovely, thoughtful, welcome gift, fabulous breakfast every day (usually in the suite, we went to the buffet once and pretty much anything on the buffet would fit in the room service globalist breakfast without extra charge, so did that for the rest of the time. Enjoyed Pur very much. I was a Hotel du Louvre refugee, and they treated me top notch.
It's too bad this treatment doesn't seem consistent to FTers.
The PHM has the same slanted roof/ceiling rooms and their reasonably comfortable depending on your height. The Vendome has continually decline over the years especially the rooms and more or less stale public area's. We stayed once during the remodel and was less than impressed. We have decided that we will "venture" out to other properties keeping the memories of the PHV.
