Hôtel Duquesne Eiffel

Excellent hotel — staff was amazing and so willing to help with everything including hoe to use the Metro, where to eat, etc — room was clean, staff was non-​introduce

Our family stopover in Paris for five nights was made even better by this fantastic hotel.
The rooms were great and the people even better from our early checkin to easy departure and everything in between.
Beyond just the stay, I recommend the breakfast in the wonderful «cellar» room with a variety of standard breakfast fare (eggs, meat, breads) along with a great selection of unique pastries that make it an easy and great way to start the day.
Once you are a ready to get on your way the hotel’s location makes everything accessible either by foot to see the local attractions or the Metro for those places a bit further away with two stops within a very short walk.
This was the perfect spot for our family of four (adjoining rooms, perfect!) but with a great selection of rooms it would be equally nice for couples or business travelers.
Great job Hotel Duquesne Eiffel! I can’t wait to come back.

This hotel was perfect for honeymoon (June 2013) — while our room was tiny, it was clean and comfortable (with a view of the Eiffel no less!), the front desk was always friendly and helpful, and the location was even better.
Priorities. The Duquesne Eiffel is located a block away from the Ecole Militaire metro stop (a five minute walk along a safe street to the busy corner) in the 7^th arondissment. This corner has a bunch of dining options as well as a Carrefour grocery store (think WINE/​booze, packable picnic foods, and cheap snacks/​chocolates to gift). The best perk? It is only a ten minute walk to the Rue Cler from this hotel — a famous market street with restaurants and variety of shops (cheese, chocolate, seafood, delis, flowers, etcetera).
The room. Nicely appointed with clean linens and a really comfortable bed. There wasn’t much room to walk around the large bed, much less set up our luggage. We had to push the desk into the corner to create a bit more space. The window that let in tons of natural light offered a view of the Eiffel and made up for the lack of size. The snacks (not free) weren’t great, but with Carrefour five minutes away, this didn’t matter. The bathroom didn’t have enough sink space, but had enough room and good water pressure.
The hotel. On the smaller side with a small elevator and free wifi. Quaint lobby, boutique-​ish. Excellent service at the front desk — my husband enjoyed practicing his French while we received advice on the localities. We would definitely stay here again, but would also like to experience other arondissments. Recommended for its price as well.

Visited on September 11 to 13^th, 2014.
Great hotel with several rooms with views of the Eiffel Tower. My room had an excellent view from the balcony. I tried for one with a direct view from the bedroom but they book up early. The room was on the small side as with most Paris hotels it was clean and with a nice full bath. The staff was friendly and helpful. The lady who checked us in turned out to be American and from the mid-​west. She gave us a great restaurant suggestion. Parking is a little far and not cheap; about 2 long blocks in the direction of the Eiffel Tower. I would return again; especially for a special occasion. My son and his girlfriend got engaged here on our balcony.

We are really enjoying the hospitality. Breakfast is very good. Convenient location to many attractions. Easy connections via public transit. Lots of great places to walk. Very clean and tidy? We would stay here again.

I was really surprised when we arrived by just how awesome this place is. My mom booked the reservations based on a recommendation from a friend for the view of the Eiffel Tower and its proximity to the metro. From the moment we arrived, the service was tip top. They are so friendly here. Most speak english rather well and the others speak enough that we can communicate. The rooms are small but that is normal for Paris and well, most of Europe. We are really only in our rooms 2 – 3 hours awake each day so it wasn’t an issue. On our first night, we found a Market, right by the Metro station Ecole’ de Militaire and picked up some salami, fromage, wine and fruit. At a bakery a ½ mile from the hotel, we picked up fresh baguettes and pastries. We had toured the Eiffel Tower after arriving from the airport and since we were in room 55 with an amazing view of the Tower, we sat on the floor with the doors wide open, and had a picnic dinner, enjoying the tower as it was lit up for the night.
The bath size took some getting used to. I stand 5’4″ (64 in.) and I couldn’t straighten my legs. My mom and I had a good laugh about it. So no luxurious baths but you’ll be clean.
The hotel is surrounded by restaurants, there are lots of great choices. In addition, you’re ½ mile from a metro station, 1 ½ miles from the Eiffel Tower and 2 miles from the Batobus on the Seine River. We averaged about 13 miles each day by foot while getting to/​from monuments and in touring them, as we chose to use the local transportation over taxis or renting a car. The hotel concierge was very helpful in telling us where to get carnet for the metro and the fastest way to get to the Tower (as we got lost the first night).
We never did have the breakfast. I have food allergies and just didn’t want to bother with it. We also didn’t like the price. We never went down to look so I’m not sure if the price makes sense in relation to what you are served. The bar downstairs though is awesome, whether for drinks or espresso.
Overall, the Hotel felt like home. The view was a 5, the service a 5 and we slept like Old Man Time so the rooms were a 5.

This adorable little hotel is in a convenient location in Paris. It’s a 5 minute walk to the nearest metro stop and about a 10 minute walk to the gorgeous Eiffel Tower! It’s not a central location, but if you love to explore cities on foot, it’s wonderful. We would set out walking from the hotel and then take the metro back. The staff is friendly and they speak great English (and politely suffered through my attempts at speaking French). They’ll store your bags at the front desk if you have a later flight and want to sightsee that day. The hotel has a boutique feel and is cute and quaint. The neighborhood was fairly quiet and there are little shops and businesses around the corner, even a grocery store.
The rooms are small as are most in Europe. Our room was in need of some TLC (cracked shower tiles, a mis-​matched shower curtain: see photos) but it was clean and charming. The bed was comfortable and had nice linens. Rooms are equipped with free wi-​fi and (of course) wine glasses and a bottle opener.
This is a nice little hotel in Paris!

I’ll sum it up in a few bullet points:
–Small lobby area, with an even smaller elevator to go up to rooms.
–Room was clean, but VERY small. Smaller than other European hotels I’ve stayed in.
— About a 10 min. walk to Eiffel Tower, but a little farther to The Louvre and Notre Dame Cathedral.
–Small, but comfortable bed.
–Shower was soooo small, but gets the job done!
— Free Wi-​Fi :)
