Very convenient (by foot) to Eiffel Tower, river cruise, Champs Elysees, Invalides, Christmas Markets. Specially important to us as one of our group was in a wheelchair. The value in this hotel is its location.
Local food available (restaurants, bakeries and supermarkets).
Reception staff very good - kudos to Jonathan for booking a multi-seat minivan (not usual service) and finding some lost items left in a the minivan and getting them back to the hotel.
ps. Not a hotel issue at all, but watch the taxis - they are crooks. One driver obscured his meter while driving and changed the rate or some other setting enroute and the <15 euro fare from Gare du Nord to the hotel clocked up to 35 euro. A return journey to Gare du Nord 10 minutes later was under 12 euro.
