I have read all the reviews for this hotel and it is well liked by travelers. But I want to warn everyone of the room sizes. Yes I know rooms in Paris tend to be small however the room we were give was so tiny that we could not stay there. In order for both of us to enter the room with our luggage, one of us had to get on the bed. No closet, no in room safe, tiny bathroom. No dresser to unpack luggage. We went back to the front desk to request a bigger room and where told all rooms in Paris are this size. I have been to Paris many times and always stayed in a 3 star hotels and while small they were bigger then this tiny room.
We left our luggage in the room long enough to find another hotel. We moved as that room was far too small for a 6 day stay.

We are sorry to read such a comment. When you check in at our Hotel you were coming from The Ritz***** in London ( 5 stars / 550 euros per night …) and stay only 1 hour before moving to Hilton**** Paris ( 4 stars / 350 euros per night … )
Of course the size of the rooms are not similar, and the price also, ours are between 100 and 140 euros, is it a reason to blame the hotel with a “1” cotation on tripadvisor and discredit it ?
The disagreement with your travel agency is not a reason for such a nasty review.
We are a family run Hotel, rooms are regular size for a 3 stars Hotel in Paris. But usually our customers are very satisfy of the rooms, the warm atmosphere , the great breakfast, the location and the kindness of our staff.
We really regret you miss that.

3/5 found this review helpful

I booked the hotel after reading the reviews on Trip Advisor and I was not disappointed. I booked the hotel for my a trip for my boyfriend who was celebrating his birthday. The reception staff were all lovely and extremely helpful and our room was cleaned to a very high standard every day. I was impressed by the fact that our linen was changed daily as were our towels - I have stayed in 5* hotels where this has not been the case. As for the location, it is excellent, and as everyone says, within walking distance from the Eiffel Tower.

The area around the hotel also feels safe when walking around. After visiting districts like the Latin Quarter, I definitely feel that we made the right choice as we we not ripped off when dining near the hotel. It was a good sign that lots of French were also dining in local restaurants, and it only added to our holiday experience.

The room was bijoux, however it was not too small and my boyfriend is 6'5 but was not uncomfortable in the room at all. We did not have breakfast at the hotel, but that was only because we were up and out of the hotel early everyday seeing the sights. I would not have hesitated eating at the hotel based on the cleanliness of the room and the communal areas.

I cannot thank the reception staff enough -especially Simone who was wonderful - thank you again if you read this!

“Superb stay at a jewel of a hotel”

Eiffel - Kennedy Hotel

Mar 18, 2008
5/5 found this review helpful

Traveling with two teenagers and needing a triple room worried me when I booked, as it caused limited selection in hotels in my price range. My concern was unwarranted: we were thrilled with all aspects of our stay at the Eiffel-Kennedy. First, Bernard, Justine and Simone were so gracious, sensitive, responsive and helpful they put us at ease and gave us terrific tips and assistance, whether for directions, eating establishments, or anything at all. Secondly, the gourmet breakfasts, often emerging from family recipes for special cakes, and pastries, were gastronomic delights, as well as generous, and provided a great start to the days. The location was a short walk to metros, bus, taxi stand, and reasonably priced delicious local restaurants. We stayed 9 nights, and clean up was timely and thorough. The room was sound proof, as promised, and hot water never ran out! The location was safe, the beds, comfortable, the elevator very useful, especially with bags at the end of the trip. The hotel was great value for the cost, and the experience, in my mind, warranted five stars!! I'll be recommending it to everyone and we'll be back!!!!

“Fantastic find!”

We took our chances and booked our stay here through British Air when we bought the plane tickets. Yes the room was tiny, but the beds were comfortable and the bathroom big and clean. The staff could not have been nicer or more helpful. And the breakfast was completely amazing! Fabulous coffee (such a treat after a week of awful coffee in London), an incredible array of pastries, croissants, baguettes, cakes, tarts, fruit, yogurt, cereal... And all homemade and everything delicious. For extra cost you could order eggs or an omlette, but we were very pleased with everything that was included. The location is away from the main sites, but in a neighborhood with a very homey, friendly feel to it. Lots of people walking dogs, lots of people with kids, etc. When we had dinner nearby, we were the only Americans each time, and that was great, we felt we really got a taste of the local scene. Great shopping is nearby. There's a bank machine right across the street, as well as a great bakery and nice convenience store. Bus #72 is a few blocks and the 20 minute walk to the Eiffel Tower is on a pedestrian walkway in the middle of the Seine, it's fabulous! Can't recommend this hotel enough.
