What a gem of a hotel in Paris! My mom and I booked a girls' trip to Paris and wanted a hotel that was very "French." A friend recommended a few arrondissements where she likes to stay, and Hotel Saint-Beuve came up in my search--we are so glad we chose to stay here! The staff was incredibly helpful from the start: they offered to book a car service from CDG (and were very patient when our flights changed twice due to airport strikes!), turned a room around very quickly when we arrived hours before check-in, gave great local recommendations, brought coffee up to our room in the morning--the list goes on! The room was lovely and just what we were looking for, and the balcony overlooking the city was the cherry on top. We especially loved coming back each evening and enjoying a glass of champagne (or two!) in the lobby on the couch while reminiscing about our day in the city. The service was that of a luxury chain, with the charm of a boutique hotel--we will definitely be returning any time we come back to Paris! p.s.--The lobby was scented with a beautiful fragrance, and when we asked we learned that they sell the scent as a room spray. We bought one for each of our homes and a couple as gifts for the rest of our family. I'm excited to be reminded of our wonderful trip to Paris whenever I spray it!
