We stayed at ths hotel as part of a Western Front Tour. We were supposed stay in Paris, however due to some arrangement, this hotel was given as an equivalent. The Lafitte area is very picturesque but is a country mile from Paris (the original hotel was near the Opera House). Why was it a problem? It was the last night of a 16 day tour. Most of us were destined for Charles De Gaulle airport. We were quoted 80 Euros by taxi for a single person and you would be battling to fit 3 persons and their luggage in the taxi. The alternative was to go the the train station about 1 Km away. 11 Euros and 11/2 hours with a transit in Paris. On the plus side, the asian restaurant just up the hill served a fabulous meal for around 20 Euros. This hotel has no passenger lift despite 3 levels. Zambuc more
