Hotel Brighton, Paris

Anybody on here wanna save money booking hotels?? If so make sure u check out this hotel at SweetHotelDeals. Net They have some awesome deals on there!

I've been staying at the Brighton for the last 10 years. At the time of my first stay I had booked a room around the corner on the Rue St Honore. It sounded charming in the guide book but when I arrived it was not what I had envisioned. It was more like a hostel. I walked around the city streets looking for another hotel and found the Brighton. I went in to check rates and was amazed at the bargain rate. What luck! I've been staying there ever since. In the winter when the trees in the Tuileries are bare the view is unobstructed from the Louvre in one direction to the Arch de Triumph in the other. Most of the staff has been there for many many years and can be relied on to help out in a jam. When there was a transit strike and I absolutely couldn't get a cab and the metro was shut down for the day the manager borrowed a car from a bellman and drove me to catch my train to the South of France, he carried my suitcase too. The bellmen Gerald and Jean Luke have been there for years,love Americans and are charming and professional. I can't wait to go back .I love it there.I won't stay anywhere else.

-great location for getting to the west end (Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, etc.) and the east end (Notre Dame, Latin Quarter, etc.) of the tourist areas of Paris -reasonable room rates, especially considering the quality of the rooms and the rates of neighboring hotels -very clean, well-kept rooms; appeared to have been renovated within the last 10 years, so the facilities are all modern (no concerns for North Americans) -not as many options for dining in the area (as you would get in, say, the Latin Quarter), but there are some nice ones (Pinxo, around the corner, is good) -internet access available via the lounge computer -no problems with the service

Located in a perfect spot...Het the Suite if you can room 413 was awesome and facing the Tulier, Louvre, Arc de Triumph, and Eifel Tower all visible from your balcony. I will go back.

Location is everything. Just returned from a week in France with two wonderful nights in Paris. The Hotel Brighton was great. The negative reports I've read on this site all seem to be rather old, probably before the renovation. Our rooms...we had two, one at the beginning of our vacation and one at the end, were both great, although I loved the last one it was a junior suite.(None were available our first night) Splurge a little and book a Junior Suite if they are available. The view is superb. Eiffel tower at night, the Lourve is literaly across the street. With the price of cabs alone you will end up ahead. The Seine river boats are about a block away and a much better way to see the city. Both rooms had been renovated and the bathrooms were very nice and spacious. So I have no complaints. Would definately stay there again. Staff was helpfull and nice. Spoke perfect English. Recommended a Brasserie around the corner that was no less than fantastic. "Chez Flottes" 3 blocks up and turn right. All in all Hotel Brighton helped make my first time to Paris a memorable experience.

We had an awesome time in Paris-(July '06) and a lot of it was because of this beautiful hotel, its location, and very nice, polite, attentive employees. The lobby is pretty with marble columns, and there are 2 elevators. My kids had a triple which was quite large, and had a large marble bath. I had requested a room with a view of the park but they didn't get the message from my web agent. Our room though was very nice, pretty and much more spacious than I expected for Europe. They let us know they were working hard to get us our view, and the second day, they moved us. Wow, it was heaven. The Eiffel tower, the park with a huge lit ferris wheel, and the Louve, as well as other pretty buildings from our balcony which ran the length of the room. Though it was not very deep, it was perfectly useful, and my whole family ended up out there. The room itself was spacious, lovely, and had a large bathroom with a separate shower, bath, and another room with a toilet and another sink- all marble. ALSO, a huge added bonus- (total dumb luck) we got to watch the Tour de France from our room!! Now, I was the hero mom for the day. There was a very spirited parade in tbe street below us, then the riders circled the street 7 or 8 times. For some of these passes, we ran down to the street for a closeup view, then ran up to our balcony to look down for an awesome long view of the race...completely unforgettable... The people on the street were jealous, and one man said I must have paid a fortune. He was from Luxembourg, and said some members of the royal house were also above on the baclonies...I'll tell you WE felt like royalty. We totally were into it, and bought an American flag to wave alongside all the other flags. My husband,(a cyclist)kids & I will never forget it. The carnival across the street was a blast, and very pretty to look at. The ferris wheel ride was amazing- we could look for miles across the city...tres romantic. From this location, we walked easily to the Louve, the Seine, and lots of great shops (Chanel, Dolce & Gabanna etc..)& restaurants. The Arch d'Triumph is also not far. We took the Metro to other places, and the stop is close to the hotel. I read above that breakfast was 8 euros- well maybe for the continental, but the (almost)full breakfast is 20, with hot items (eggs) an extra 4 or 5 euros. I would without hesitation stay here again, and recommend this hotel. Thanks for reading all of this, and yeah, I have photos too.... Gina

This hotel was a great value, with a filling petit dejeuner for very little money. We stayed on the top floor, and had a microscopic balcony overlooking Paris and the Jardin des Tuilleries. This hotel is across the street from the Louvre and within walking distance to many great sights and shopping (Rue St. Honore is a block or two away). It's certainly not a 5-star hotel, but it shares the same location as many that are (the Ritz is right around the corner). We loved it!

great... location service palace breakfast costs 8 euro incredibly cheap, one of the best location in Paris. lively, close to le tuilleries and louvre, retsaurants, walking distance from place de la concorde
