You can sit right by the window or on a couch with views through the large windows.

I can't remember if it was you or someone else that disputed what I reported, but I stand by what I said that there are more options for food and drinks at the restaurant than at the lounge.

It's true the view from the lounge is unbeatable, but I've had breakfast and the evening food spread at the lounge so I already know what the experience is like. For breakfast, I’ll continue to head down to the restaurant.

I'm offering a different perspective to the OP. Everyone has different preferences. If there are more options at the restaurant I didn't notice it, but I don't doubt your report. However, the lounge had all the options I personally like to eat, and the quality was excellent. My wife and I found the restaurant very busy and crowded and much less pleasant, for our preferences. If you value the additional options, whatever they were, of course that's your prerogative.

I don’t suppose anyone has found a way to make standard rooms appear? 21k club rooms are running amok but no combination of dates will make a standard redemption budge in May 2024.

I booked the Ambassador suite once at this hotel for $100/night, and got upgraded to the Presidential Suite for free for 4 days, as a Discoverist. In a summer, before Covid. It was wild. I just flew to Paris because of this deal, lol...

I’ve never seen a standard room here. Period. Not sure why they get away with it.

I've seen them available last minute, but by then it's too late as I locked in the cash rate.

I think breakfast at the lounge ends 30 minutes earlier than at the restaurant.

How last minute would you say?

Like 24-48 hours before. I think they rather settle for the points than potentially have an unsold room. My advice would be to book at the lowest cash price that you can afford and hope that an award is available before you can't cancel anymore.

I will be staying at the HR with my wife and kids next year to celebrate my wife's 40th. We pre-booked a Regency Suite King since there will be four of us. She is a huge fan of good food and good wine (who isn't?), which obviously is plentiful in Paris. Does anyone have any good recommendations for that around the hotel, or is it pretty much "You can't go wrong"?

Thanks!

Connecting rooms?

Bit of a random question. Currently have two standard twin rooks booked, one with points and one with cash.

I was told there are no connecting rooms other than the family rooms. Has anyone had success converting two rooms into a family room?

Additionally, as an Explorist, is a club lounge upgrade in the realm of passibility?

I do see Club lounge rooms available for an additional 6k per night, but I don’t think I’ll be using the lounge very day.
