Globalist, staying on points, considering using suite upgrade if it’s worth it. Any recent stays or insight on either property? Any neighborhood gems we should know about around either property? Or, if you recommend another redemption, I’m all ears!
Madeleine is one of the few hotels that do not accept TSU so you cannot upgrade to a suite in advance. So I would go with Hotel du Louvre if choosing between these 2. HR Etoile is 10K cheaper and where I usually stay when I'm in Paris for 1 week. HR Etoile weekend rates in November should be low enough that I would pay rather than use points, random weekend shows 165 euros.

Madeleine and Hotel du Louvre are Cat 6 at 25K points, even more expensive.
