Hôtel Le Royal

When I was in Paris, I spent six nights at the Hotel Le Royal, and I don't have enough good things to say about it. I arrived at 7:30 am on Sunday morning after a long night of travel. Although I was expecting not to check in to my room until 3:00 pm, the room was ready at 7:35 am! And better yet, it was an upgrade! The hotel is located at 212, boulevard Raspail in the 14e arrondissement. That's just steps from the Luxembourg Gardens, Gare Montparnasse, and excellent restaurants. Rooms are spacious, clean, comfortable and air conditioned. Reservations are refundable. Rooms contain international plugs to charge your phones. There is free tea and coffee in the lobby all day whether you are part of the breakfast plan or not. Special thanks to Isabelle and to Fiona at the hotel for their help while I was there. You want late check-out? Just ask a day or two in advance. A family with young children wanted their room cleaned so the kids could take a nap. Their room was clean in 20 minutes. If hotel is full, you can reserve at their sister hotel, Jardin le Brea, which is five minutes away. My only suggestion or constructive criticism is for the hotel to provide large bottles of water for hot days. Otherwise, I give it douze points, just like in Eurovision. I stayed there before in 2019, and I have no doubt that I will stay there again.
