And Paris is really not a view city for hotels. There are a small number of properties with notable views, most of which I would not stay in for other reasons.

Ok. So I am planning on visiting Paris with Mrs Brandinho1 and I will be using HHonors points. Wanted to know which Hilton in Paris provides a room with a view of the Eiffel Tower from the actual room or particular side of the property. Look forward to hearing your input.
Mercure though has ony 1-room with a reallygreat view
You can see the upper portion from road/entry to the Mercure

Actually, I think the Astor has a suite (or maybe suites) on the top floor that should have really good views - at least according to the photos I've seen on their website...
Also, I've stayed a few times at Hilton CDG and rom the 8th floor rooms you actually can see the Eiffel tower and the Sacré Coeur cathedral! It is about 25km away, so you need to know what you're looking for, but once you figure it out, it is quite clear (especially at night when it sparkles)....
Probably not what the OP is looking for though....

Melia La Défense has some reasonable views over the Avenue de la Grande Armée and is very comfortable and reasonably priced at weekends. But it's not a Hilton.

This is a photo from my stay back in '06. Pretty good view and the free bottle of wine as a Diamond welcome was much appreciated.

Hyatt Regency Paris Étoile has one of the best views in all of Paris. It is a very tall hotel and is not blocked by other buildings so they have a lot of rooms with a full tower view. HOWEVER, the hotel is a pit ... the rooms are in horrible condition and they are supposed to be starting a full room renovation soon.

There are also decent views from some rooms at the Le Metropolitan (formerly a radisson, now spg)

I booked 2 free weekend nights at the Hilton Paris Opera and was offered an estandby upgrade to a deluxe room from a standard award room for free. If I take this, will this preclude a better upgrade upon checkin? I'm a gold, but may be a diamond by the time I arrive in April.
