Hotel Régence Etoile

Extremely, incredibly dirty. There were tiny flies everywhere, it was unbearable. They didn't have any other rooms to switch to, and we couldn't even cancel the second night.

The room was much more spacious than I expected and had excellent natural light. The mattress was just right—not too soft, not too hard—and very comfortable. What really impressed me was the soundproofing; I slept soundly all night. The bathroom had a great walk-in shower with strong water pressure and instant hot water, plus all the amenities you could need. It's also super convenient for shopping, just a 5-minute walk from the Champs-Élysées.

Facilities: Quite new and well-equipped. The breakfast was really good, especially the bread, and they even offered a packed breakfast to go if you left early. Hygiene: Reasonably clean, though there were some long hairs on the floor, which was acceptable. Environment: The room was a bit small, but the location was absolutely superb. The excellent location made up for any other minor issues. Service: Very warm and attentive.

Facilities: Average Cleanliness: Clean and tidy Environment: Decent, you can see the Arc de Triomphe from the window Service: Good Overall, I'm quite satisfied. It feels safe, as you need to swipe a card to enter and exit. The croissants for breakfast were delicious.

The hotel's location is super convenient. Just a 100-meter walk to the left from the entrance, and you're at the Arc de Triomphe. From there, it's a pleasant ten-minute stroll down the Champs-Élysées to the Jardin des Champs-Élysées. There are plenty of great food options around the hotel, both Western and Chinese, plus some delicious dessert shops. Even though I couldn't get a room with an Arc de Triomphe view from the balcony, the large terrace on the top floor room was still lovely. The hotel breakfast was good too, and the desserts were particularly tasty. The best part, though, was the complimentary laundry service and self-service water dispenser – a real bonus! The daily lobby snack bar: the cookies are delicious 😋
