This was my second trip to Paris within a year.
Back in May I stayed at the Prince de Galles on George V in the 8th. Being I love the area, but couldn't afford the Prince for a full week I tried my luck at the Radisson SAS Champs Elysees, and soooo glad I did!
It feels more like a boutique hotel, the thing I loved most about it was that the room had hard wood floors, so no icky odor! Bed was extremely comfortable and clean. The bath was to die for! Full tub, separate shower and fantastic modern sink.
Of course, in European fashion, the room was small, but big deal, face it folks, MOST of the rooms outside the U.S. are smaller than we're used to (except Manhattan, where I live).
The staff was so incredibly friendly.
I ate at the restaurant one night, it was ok, I'm more of a brasserie girl when I'm in Paris, but the staff was so sweet I just wanted to "hang" with them one night in the hotel.
Had a glass of wine every night in the lobby "library" bar. And I must say, the croque monsier there was one of the best I've ever had in my life!
I will absolutely stay there again, without any hesitation. The price is (dare I say) cheap considering what you're getting. And yes, so close to everything....
