Long and short: The view is great, and is close to the Eiffel Towers, but save your money and DON'T stay at the Pullman. Concierge, are rude, requests are not handled in a timely manner, and cleaning is not sufficient.
Full review: The evening we checked in to the Pullman we came in on a high, having just spent an amazing week in London and now fulfilling a dream of coming to Paris. It was wildly busy but we were so happy to be there it wasn't a bother to wait.
Upon stepping to the counter, we were assisted by Chloe. She was friendly and was quick to assist, she mentioned our room, (AND THIS IS IMPORTANT) and it having a King-Sized bed and a sofa bed as my family was checking in. She expressed the need for a credit card for the city fees and proceeded to hand me our keys. Simple, we were a bit bummed to be on the third floor (Room 337) but with a 4 min walk to the Eiffel Tower, shoot we didn't care.
We walked into the room and it had TWO SINGLE BEDS, this was ABSOLUTLY not what I had paid for. I went back down stairs and Chloe was gone, and Jeff with a bothered attitude "assisted". He said that "you booked a room for only yourself and one other person". He said that the room would, "Just have to do." The SECOND I mentioned a refund, he got a manager, Faiza. She wasn't much nicer than Jeff, but I wasn't budging, she proceeded to say that the rooms I was talking about were not available but that the new room had a King-sized bed and they would provide, what we in the US call a roll away bed. It took them THREE HOURS to get that roll away bed to my room, and I had to ask twice.
The second room was on the 11th floor with an amazing view, but here's the thing it STILL wasn't what I paid for. At that point, Chloe, Jeff and borderline Faiza had made me feel incredibly unwelcome in France.
* With that being said, the ONLY reason this hotel is getting the rave reviews is the view's can be phenomenal, IF you have the right room. Other than that;
* Checked in Sunday night, Thursday was the first day they gave us more than two towels without having to ask, every day we had to ask and it usually took a couple hours to get them.
* The rooms were never cleaned properly, only the bed were made that's it.
* Our shower was broken and the water pooled horribly on the ground.
* Side note, it's not close to anything else you'd likely want to see in Paris.
I see that the Pullman staff responds to such reviews, but it would only add further insult to injury if they did, since there is literally nothing, they could do to save face.
Save your money, the Pullman isn't worth staying at.
