From the moment we walked in the door -- jet lagged from an 8-hour flight and 4 hours early for check in -- this facility and its services were excellent. Richard seated us in the lounge area and brought us a tray of hot tea and pastries, a little "welcome to Paris" treat. For the entire week that followed, all turned out to be one of the best travel adventures that my partner and I (world travelers in our 80s!) had ever experienced. We were extremely pleased with the hotel's staff, especially the charming Richard and Arnaud. They arranged transport for us, suggested stops along the way that we'd not considered, even suggested the liquor store down the street rather than an expensive restaurant cocktail, when my partner was "tried of wine" and wanted a Scotch! Our room was typically French (small but tolerable), and our view of the top 1/3 of the Eiffel Tower was splendid. Regardless of when we left our room, upon our return all was immaculate with more towels than I've ever seen in even the best of hotels around the world. Breakfast was sumptuous, with pastries, juice, coffee, sausage, fruit, so much so that we usually skipped lunch and opted instead for early dinner at nearby cafes-- in addition to museums and historical sites close at hand, we were never far away from good food at reasonable prices. So, I'd not been in Paris for nearly a decade, but staying at Hotel de Londres Eiffel made me long to return, to this beautiful city and all the marvelous French people who were so welcoming to us Americans.. Thank you to Rick Steves for the tip-- you're the best!
