My wife and I stayed at the Splendid Etoile last week to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary. We chose it because of the excellent reviews on this website. We contacted the hotel direct and requested a superior room with a view of the Arc de Triomphe. The room was lovely and spacious by Parisian standards and WOW....what a view!! We had an uninterrupted view of the Arc and could also see the top half of the Eiffel Tower as it twinkled at night. Very romantic sitting on the balcony, sipping bubbly, looking at these wonderful landmarks.
Farooq gets a lot of good press on previous reviews, and rightly so. He makes you feel very welcome. However, without exception, all staff were very courteous, friendly and helpful.
The location is fantastic with easy transport access from the airport and a metro station right outside.
There's also a fabulous little boulangerie/pattiserie at the bottom of the street with cakes and pastries to die for!.
This hotel has everything you could want for a short break in Paris. Without a doubt, when we go back, we'll stay at the Splendid Etoile.
