Hôtel Saint Augustin Elysées - Paris

hotel abbastanza carino e ben ubicato e collegato!.....due sole pecche: 1- le dimensioni delle stanze, veramente piccole; 2- la prima colazione non inclusa nel prezzo (tra l'altro piuttosto buona per un 3 stelle)

Due to a mistake on the web server the price was approx. by 1/3 lower than ordinary. This was clearly expressed by the receptionist with not the best attitude as first information handed to us. It did not work as the best first impression.

Reason : Sightseeing Paris. Nice quater/arrondissement. God connections. The staff is friendly and well informed.

We arrived and the lifts were not working all weekend, and we were on the 4th floor. The hair dryer was also not working, and they could not find a replacement hairdryer because there was only one in the entire hotel. They then found a room which had a hairdryer that works. Instead of sending up the key, they made us go down to fetch the key to the other room. We also could not order a cab ahead of time, we were told that we had to go downstairs 10 minutes before wanting the cab, and then they would order it. Overall, the service was lousy.

room was cancceled by arriving, stuff not kindly and not helpfull, many problems, not able to reserve taxis or clean the room. In the time we was there - they had much problems with other guests.

I had searched online for a boutique hotel in Paris and so was somewhat disappointed to find that this hotel is part of the Best Western Chain. Given the cost of the hotel, the rooms were quite small and the hotel staff seemed 'put upon' to answer questions or assist w/things like a recommendation for a nearby restaurant. One morning we went in the hotel restaurant for breakfast and finally left after we waited 15 minutes for service while the wait staff were talking in the food prep area. The hotel did have nice decor but not what I expected overall. It had the indifferent attitude you might expect from a big chain without any of the ammenities and the boutique part was really only the decor.

Muy bonita la habitacion, comoda y grande, hotel ubicado en una calle tranquila con poco movimiento.

The room was very comfortable, but tiny as you would expect in Paris. I was disappointed that there wasn't a fridge in the room for water/bar. I thought the staff did a nice job trying to coordinate our shuttle to the airport for us, since we didn't speak any French. They were very patient and kind. The location was great, right next to a big church and a subway station, which took you all over the city. The area was quiet and relatively clean. Also, it was nice to know that they had a lock on the door and a staff member was able to unlock it for you at all hours of the night. We felt safe! The cost of the continental breakfast was expensive and wasn't that great of a selection. It's good for location if you just want somewhere to put your head down for the night.

Although the hotel is located in a more quiet area (perfect for sleep deprived people who need some quiet surroundings at night), the hotel was extremely well accessible via metro. It is also a 10 min walk away from Lafayette and 10 min away from the Opera and the nice area of La Madeleine. The room was small but nothing unusual from any other European/Parisian hotel. It was very clean and nice. The service was absolutely excellent. This was my 7th time in Paris and I was a little getting used to their "attitude". But I was so surprised with the wonderful welcome I received. The staff speaks many languages and are very accomodating. I would definitely go back to this hotel.

Nice little hotel, if you visit Paris for a few days stay and you want to be close to the centre. It offers the basic services, the staff is friendly and helpfull.

This was our first stay at Hotel Saint Augustin-Paris 8eme and we stayed in a standard double room. The staff was very nice and helpful. The rooms are very small and the way the bathrooms are located in these rooms is too imposing on the orher huest. Wish the bathroom would have been located in the hall of the room instead of in the actual room. But it was very clean and quiet and what the website says complice with how the reality is. I will try to stay at this hotel the next time I go to Paris, which is once every two months. And also, I'd recommend this hotel, to book a room via internet, to my friends and family! Thank You!

Tres jolie hotel, nice decoration, good position, good quality price -except breakfast. The room had a balcony with very nice views. Size or room above average in Paris. Wi-fi ridicously expensive.

NO BATHROOM CURTAIN,NO TRASH CAN,NO TV CONSOLE,AIRCONDITION OUT OF ORDER,LOCATION IS GOOD.

I needed to be in the vicinity of Salle GAVEAU on rue BOETIE for less than 80 €. The hotel was under heavy refurbishing with lots of cement, dust, fresh paint, workmen, noise... The only commercial effort that was made was on a poor breakfast that I took one morning for lack of another solution. I think, considering the inconvienience, they should have made a significant commercial gesture (50€ instead of 80)

HOTEL OVER RESTORATION :IT WILL BE READY ON JULY 2006 GOOD POSITION

the hotel was undergoing renovation whilst we were there but sure it'll be really good when finished

Currently under-going renovation. Fumes very strong. Would avoid this hotel for the next 6-12 months. The room was very small; breakfast was average, service was a little below average. Reasonably priced for the location (once the noxious paint smells are gone).

Perhaps this will be a nice hotel in 2007. The are beginning renovations and should probably be closed or lower their rates considerably at this time. The stairway was covered with paint cans and pieces of wood. The workmen began quite early; so we awoke every morning to pounding hammers and buzzing saws. The hotel was on a small sidestreet and difficult to find. If you go, ask a local where St. Augustin Church is; it is only a couple of blocks from there. (No one we asked knew where the hotel was.)

Una situcion grave fue que tuvi que hacer el pago en apartado de los desyunos de todos los dias de reserva, cuando en el site en la reserva dicia que el desayuno ya estava incluso en el precio. El hotel informó que jamás esta incluso el desayono cuando la reserva es hecha por el venere.com, pero solamente en el check out. Gracias Adel

Pasamos 3 noches en este hotel, muy agradable, en una bonita y tranquila zona de Paris, muy cerca del metro y de las Galerias Comerciales. La habitación era confortable y el servicio de recepción muy correcto. Establecimiento ideal para unas cortas vacaciones en Paris. El desayuno no estaba incluido en el precio, y optamos por desayunar en cualquiera de los encantadores cafés de la zona. Recomendable.

Hotel St. Augustine is in a very good location, within walking distance of the Champs Elysee (10 mins) and yet is extremely good value. The rooms are quite small, (smallest bath I ever saw) but very clean and very warm at night. The hotel is also located near the metro, a mobilis metro card costs 5 euro and allows you to travel through out the city for the whole day. At the time of my stay the hotel appeared to be undergoing some renovation, but this did not affect our stay or the service provided. Breakfast is extra and is typical continental style. The dining room is dated but the staff are extremely warm and welcoming . If you are on a budget, looking for a cheap, cosy weekend in Paris, and your not expecting the ritz I would highly recommend this hotel.

Very well located hotel. Ideal for a weekend in Paris. The rooms are really small but ok if you're just looking for a place to sleep.

the breakfast was not included!!!14 euro per person!! Venere should tell us if the breakfast is included in the price or not! The location in wonderful, very central, and the room with a good relationship price/quality.

Our bedroom was good,the only complaint is that during the night and the early morning we heard water of the bathrooms coming from the other bedrooms.

I read the reviews about this hotel only after I made my reservation and I was terrified. I got there and I found the opposite; the place is excellent, the area is superb and next time I go to Paris I will look for another hotel only if there are no free rooms at Saint Augustin.

I had stayed there before so knew what the hotel was like.

Spacious Room, and even has a balcony! Very enjoyable stay at a good price.

We enjoyed our week's stay at the hotel especially for the price.

Parking in public area was expensive, but it is Paris. Location was close to Metro, staff spoke a little English, and didn't seem to interested in giving assistance. Need a good map anytime you drive in Paris. No complaints, but nothing out of the ordinary.

the room is different from what is posted on the internet website, plus it very small room and quality of bed is average. the location of the hotel is very good and close from underground metro.
