Overall it was a pleasant stay, however a few things to note that I would not expect at a five star hotel; upon arrival no one was there to help us with our bags. After checking in we requested to be moved to a room that had a better view than the one we were in (court-side view) but the only available option would require us to pay almost triple the price we paid for our room. Also, our room was located near the service lift so it was extremely noise every single morning we were there. It is worth noting however that the welcome staff were very sweet and the check in/out process was very fast and convenient.

I stayed at the hotel for nine nights. The room was small but that was okay since I really just needed a place to sleep since I was going to do a lot of sightseeing.

I have always loved the Sofitel chain. My favorite is the Sofitel in Washington DC. So, when I booked this room in Paris I expected an exceptional experience.

Their breakfast buffet left very little to be desired. I ordered pancakes one morning they were cold, dry and rubbery. The next morning I ordered soft boiled eggs. The eggs were hard boiled. The cost of the breakfast is obscene at $39 euros per person. Definitely not worth it. While it is more convenient to just have breakfast at the hotel, after the first two, I decided to just explore and look for a cafe for the duration of my stay.

A few afternoons I had the do not disturb sign on my door because I wanted to take a little nap before I went back out. Every time I was in the room to nap, the housekeeping staff called the room to ask when they can come to clean. That was one of the most aggravating things. The first time this happened I did not answer the phone. Immediately after the housekeeping staff called again. They continued to call until I finally answered.

I stopped to ask the concierge about tickets to the opera garnier to tour. I was told they don’t do tours.

Very comfortable and well-designed rooms. Extreme attention to detail. Terrific use of accent lighting. Every surface considered! Very comfortable beds and linens.
However, this felt a bit more like a \"business hotel\" which was fine as I was not on a romantic trip - but if I were, I would choose a different hotel. The lobby decor was much less-considered than the design of the rooms with a random collection of decorations that did not feel elegant or thoughtful. That said, wonderful staff and overall great experience.

Perfect Stay

I had stayed in the Hotel Scribe several years ago and so was familiar with the hotel and its central location. The Scribe has had a significant refurbishment in the interim and is now a plush and sophisticated hotel. The location can hardly be bettered. It is possible to walk to all the major museums and galleries. First class shopping and restaurants are close by.
The welcome at reception was friendly and professional. I think I was upgraded and had a top floor room with views across the Paris rooftops towards the Place Vendome. The room was comfortable and quiet. If I had a quibble it was with the lighting. It was almost impossible to read anywhere in the room. Breakfast was perfect with a wide selection of hot and cold fare serves by an incredibly friendly crew.

Special mention needs to be made of the Concierge who helped me with several excellent restaurant recommendations and bookings.

The location and the rooms were beautiful. The bar was excellent. However, it was under construction and the amenities were closed, We were disappointed as the room had a paint and heavy glue smell. We asked for candles which never came. On our last night, the smell was unbearable and they were literally gluing and doing construction outside our window at 7 am. Staff did not seem bothered by this and when i told the manager he just shrugged his shoulders -so a bit disappointed.

The hotel is undergoing extensive and EXTREMELY NOISY renovations. At check-in I asked if the room would be noisy and the receptionist and guest services staff looked me in the eye and LIED. The room was terribly noisy, and I demanded to either cancel and change hotels or be given a new room. I was given a new room which was less noisy but still unacceptably so. For nearly 700 euros per night this is a huge rip-off. Furthermore the common areas are also noisy and a lot dirtier than they should be given the level of the hotel.
