Don't waste your money, employees rude, lie, area is dark and seedy. The hotel does not deserve guests, if you are American for get it! more

We stayed at this hotel in the "Low Season" during Fashion Week. The hotel did meet my expectations but did not exceed them. I thought the location was perfect for the price, best bang for your buck. Just a very short walk to the Champs Elysee, and traveled around from there. It was our first time in Paris, so everything... more

This hotel has very welcoming staff all with excellent english. The rooms were very clean an well kept but do not resemble any of the pictures on the hotels own website. The decor of our room was much older than the ones in the photos. The location was fantastic. We read a review that talked about noise and strip clubs!... more

Hotel California has a great location just off the Champs Elysee but the hotel is grotty and the service is a real let-down. One more thing, while the location is convenient the actual street that the hotel is on is a bit seedy with stripclubs, casinos, and nightclubs that stay open until 6am. more

stayed here totally by mistake! Rooms are very grim with next to no internet access at all. Very limited room service. uncomfortable beds. useless staff. Just very poor all round. one redeeming factor is the slight hint of charm in the peculiar selection of art on the walls and the zebra on the 7th floor..... more

My husband booked our trip as a wedding anniversary present but when I read some of the reviews I was full of trepidation; however I needn't have worried. The staff on reception, especially Coralie, were cheerful, pleasant and helpful. In fact all the staff we encountered, the doormen, barkeeper and chambermaids were very welcoming. Our room was clean and comfortable... more

Our stay at the Hotel California in Paris in the summer of 2008 was good. The hotel has an excellent location just off the Champs Elysees (with its high quality shopping and good food) and very close (a couple of blocks) to the arc de triomphe. From the hotel, if you are willing to walk 20-30 minutes, you can walk... more

Having read the reviews about overbooking, I took some precautions (emailed and called the hotel twice). Well, at our arrival - 10AM - the room was ready. The desk staff was very well educated and also very kind and attentive, saying that the foam pillows I have asked for were at the room waiting for me. The bellman, very nice,... more

My husband and I stayed here for two nights while we were in Paris. We arrived about five hours prior to check in. Our room wasn't available yet, so they took our luggage, gave us a few suggestions on where to eat and asked us to come back in a few hours. When we returned, our room was ready and... more
