I'm not sure if you'd consider March recent, but we were there for five nights. Using what were then abbreviated SNAs and staying on points, we were upgraded to a Chambre Prestige; however, in the app before we arrived, it had shown we were upgraded to a Familale Prestige, which I would have preferred, because it didn't have the mid-room dividing curtain. When I asked about the discrepency between the room types, I was told by the desk we had been "double upgraded," but I think that means we were downgraded one room type from our confirmed upgrade. Really hard to tell what we would have received without the SNAs. But the room, with a King bed, was fine and relatively quiet, considering that it's just off a busy main road. The room had a Nespresso machine and a minifridge.
The big (good) surprise as a Lifetime Titanium Elite was the breakfast. AC Hotels don't have to provide a breakfast benefit, as I recall, but this one said they do so (or did so, in March) for Titanium Elites. It was a pretty good spread, with several hot dishes and a number of cold options, plus fresh Parisian bread, espresso and more. Nothing was made to order but there was enough variety to make it a very pleasant experience. I don't know what other levels of Elite might get this benefit at this hotel, as I didn't think to ask.
One thing to be aware of is, as of January 2024, a mandatory (apparently city) tax per night applies to all reservations, points or paid. This seems to have been put in place prior to the Olympics this year. It is not, the hotel insisted, a destination fee or hotel originated. Clearly they got a lot of questions about it.
The pocket neighborhood surrounding the hotel actually has a number of very good, affordable sit-down dinner options within a 5 minute walk, and it's 5-10 minutes from the Metro station. So a good value for exploring Paris if you don't need to be in the middle of all the tourist activity.
I didn't take any photos of the room itself, but here's one of the view from our room. Note the busy road on the right, under the field. The windows, which can be opened, did a great job of muffling noise.
