Hotel Chambiges Elysées

This is a top notch hotel at a reasonable price. It's located just a few blocks from numerous underground stations and the Champs Elysee yet is on a quiet, calm street that feels hidden away. There are tons of walkable local bars, restaurants, shopping. The rooms are gorgeous! A nice size, beautifully decorated in a classic style, and feature a very comfortable bed. There's a nice sized desk for working. And the large window where we were looked into a cute courtyard. There is a fridge (though it's not terribly cold) to store wine and cheese, and it is stocked as a minibar with reasonable wine prices if you're in late night crisis. The bathroom was huge, and we had requested what they said was the only one with a standing shower instead of bath and handle-shower. I just wish the shower area was enclosed as the bathroom gets soaked (very European for some reason!) The breakfast downstairs is buffet and has a bit of everything including amazing local pastries and made on site eggs that were delicious! It's a decent price for what is included. Last but not least - the staff are fantastic!! Friendly, but professional. Willing to avoid my terrible French and speak English. They greeted us by name and took care of any requests we had. This was a lovely, old school hotel that I would happily stay at again and again!
