Vivaldi Hotel

The hotel is tiny and pretty typical, according to Paris standards. It is inexpensive and provides a breakfast buffet, which is decent but nothing to write home about. We rented a room for three people, but what we got is a room with a double bed, where they had added on a third, foldable bed, which was too short for an adult and had a bed lamp, which […] couldn't be moved, right where your head is supposed to be when you're sleeping, so it was a major inconvenience. We slept very uncomfortably with three people in the small room, so on the second night we had to rent another room. The hotel staff was polite enough to offer us a second room at half price, due to the inconvenience, but they ended up charging us for three people at the end (for a room used just by two), because we weren't paying attention at checkout. It is an adequate hotel for the price, as most Paris hotels are rather pricy, but I wouldn't recommend or visit this hotel again. It is far from the closest metro stop (15-minute walk), and overall not very convenient for a sightseeing type of trip. It is in the La Defense area of Paris, which is a very business-oriented area, so there isn't much to do around the hotel and the metro has to be used to go anywhere. Read more

The Hotel Vivaldi is quite a walk from the Metro or RER at La Défense, but if you take a 141 or 144 Bus (free with Paris Visite card) you'll be there in no time. The Hotel staff are friendly and very helpful, the included breakfast was great, too, and the room was just right for our needs. The only criticism was that the bathroom was very small, and […] showering in a cubicle only just big enough to stand up in was a challenge to say the least! RER to Arc de Triomphe was under 5 minutes, so it's a good base to explore any of the sights and restaurants, but we took the advice of the hotel and went to Le Bistrot de Boucher round the corner from the hotel and had a fantastic 3 course meal with wine for about 70 Euros. They are open on Sunday nights, and we were lucky to get a table as it soon filled up! All in all a nice base to rediscover Paris - we wished we could have stayed longer, but I'm glad not to be paying French prices for Beer at home! Read more

Nel complesso l'hotel è decente. Dai giudizi che avevo letto pensavo meglio. E' sconsigliato per un soggiorno breve e per persone sovrappeso. La metropolitana è a 800m + almeno 15min di metropolitana per andare in centro città. Non è tanto ma per muoversi velocemente un hotel in centro è decisamente meglio. La colazione è ottima, la camera è veramente […] piccola (il bagno è accessibile per persone non grasse). Il personale ci ha dato indicazioni sbagliate su chiusura musei e su come era meglio muoversi. Nel complesso non è comunque male dal punto di vista dell'igiene in quanto l'albergo è stato ristrutturato da poco e il quartiere dove si trova è moderno e pulito. Read more

L'Hotel è a 15 minuti a passo costante di marcia dalla stazione Esplanade de la Defence e è situato nel centro di Pouteaux. Intorno all'albergo negozi e più d'un discreto ristorante. Alla reception abbiamo ricevuto buoni consigli sia per gli spostamenti in città, sia per la selezione di ristoranti vicini all'albergo.
