Modern and efficient hotel

Great location - a three minute walk to the Metro, five minute walk to the village Neuilly which has some great local restaurants, pubs and shops. Also close to the La Defense business and commercial area that has a large shopping mall, Starbucks and other conveniences. The hotel staff is polite, efficient and English speaking. The rooms are super quiet, comfortable, modern and immaculate. Also there's free ultra fast WiFi!

Close to Business District

Pros: Free Internet, Quiet
Cons: restaurant at hotel not that great
For North Americian travellers the mattress is hard to get use to because there are no boxsprings and the mattress is not wide. Also they don't use a top sheet, just a comforter. The room was clean and bigger then most european hotel rooms. Front desk was helpful for directions and spoke english.
