Mercure Paris Tour Eiffel Grenelle

“Good hotel and location”

Had a short, two night stay at this hotel. We usually stay at the Citadines down the street but this time it was full.

Had a short, two night stay at this hotel. We usually stay at the Citadines down the street but this time it was full. The location for us is perfect as we move a lot around the 15th arrondissement, and just across the Metro, which was perfect and could get to any place in Paris in half an hour or less. We initially had a room that was at the same level of a courtyard, we immediately asked to be moved to a higher room and the staff made a great effort to find us another room. The rooms are not very large, which is normal in Paris. The decor was very modern and the rooms seemed to be very refreshed. The corridors, on the other hand, were old and dated. It was a big contrast between the nicely decorated lobby and the corridors on each floor. We did not try the breakfast as it was overpriced, but there were plenty of options around the hotel, including several great boulangeries. We definitely recommend this hotel if looking for a good price/location/quality.

“Does what it says on the tin!”

Just a 5-minute walk to the iconic Eiffel Tower—whether you’re admiring the view from your room or strolling through the city, the magic of Paris is right at your doorstep.

Just a 5-minute walk to the iconic Eiffel Tower—whether you’re admiring the view from your room or strolling through the city, the magic of Paris is right at your doorstep. Conveniently located with the metro right at the hotel’s doorstep, making it easy to explore all that Paris has to offer. The rooms are cosy and perfect for a relaxing stay, though some areas of the hotel feel a bit tired, and the bathroom lacks privacy. Still, it’s an ideal spot for a weekend getaway! And don’t forget to choose a room with an Eiffel Tower view for that extra touch of Parisian magic.

“Basic and overpriced”

This is a basic hotel. Basic hotels should not be charging ~1000 euros for 4 nights. It’s a shame, we really wanted to like this hotel but it was a big let down. The place feels quite run down. The room was tiny. You could not swing a cat in it. The beds are hard, the pillows are flat. Breakfast is… more

This is a basic hotel. Basic hotels should not be charging ~1000 euros for 4 nights. It’s a shame, we really wanted to like this hotel but it was a big let down. The place feels quite run down. The room was tiny. You could not swing a cat in it. The beds are hard, the pillows are flat. Breakfast is overpriced. This hotel doesn’t live up to the standard of other Mercure hotels around the world. There is only one elevator which takes forever and the hotel staff, cleaners etc. will hold it up regularly because there is no service lift. We waited for over 10 minutes one time because the cleaners were keeping it open on one floor. There is a small lounge/library area in the lobby which we thought was for the benefit of guests. My partner sat down there just to get some time away from the tiny, cramped room only for the hotel reception to ask if he had a room there, like he was some random that had just drifted in off the street. The only redeeming feature is the location. It is a short walk to the Eiffel Tower and there is a metro station across the road. In summary, I would not recommend this hotel. There are other nicer hotels around the area that offer better value for money.
