Best Marriott or Hyatt hotel in Paris? Taking mom for her first trip abroad so would like to be in a nicer area with a decent hotel (<$500/night cash or good points redemption for luxury). I’ve been before. Have Marriott Titanium, Hyatt Globalist, Amex FHR.

Thank you! I’ll try to use points too. It’s $$$$ on the cash rate 🙃

We stayed at Moxy Bastille and liked it. It’s walking distance from Breguet Sabin metro and also to Chemin Vert. Hotel had good breakfast and was comfortable. Rooms are smaller compared to US standards. However, the location of this hotel was fantastic. It’s a short ride to Eiffel Tower by metro (Ecole Militaire or Bir Hakim). You can also take an RER to Versailles from Bastille.

That or the Madeleine in my opinion. Charles de Gaulle Etoile is where I mostly stay these days as it’s the best “bang for your buck” and has an awesome sky lounge, but I recommend against it if you want location. I can do the metro in my sleep at this point so it’s only slightly out of the way for me, but there’s little touristy out there.

That makes sense. It’ll be her first time so I’ll go for location with her, but next time I do a solo/friend trip, will definitely consider the Etoile!

Renaissance Vendome was a fantastic location and a pretty nice room, if you bear the lackluster customer service from their team. Did a very similar trip to what you’re describing

I want to go for sanity reasons, but feel like it seems foolish too. What would y’all do? Just wait and see?
