Best Western Saint Louis

I would have like to give this hotel a better rating but there were too many things that I found disappointing for a 4* hotel: 1. there was a persistent bad smell in the bathroom (like sewer or something). It got a bit better after a day but never disappeared 2. at times, the water pressure dropped to zero when I was showering. I don't know why, maybe it happens when too many people draw water at the same time. It's unpleasant when you are all soaped up. Luckily it did not last too long. 3. the breakfast was really underwhelming. It's in a dark room in the basement and the choice is very limited. There is very little service too, which is not what one expects in a 4* hotel. The hotel is small and I understand that they can't offer a large buffet but at least please try to make it up with a great service. The one staff who's there literally stands still 95% of the time. She'll ask for your room number and, I guess, will clear the table. What about serving drinks and preparing made-to-order eggs for example? Now I have to admit the breakfast is not "expensive" at 13€. That said, the hotel has a very good location and is generally speaking very clean. The room was big enough and the bed comfortable. The decor was a tiny bit pompous but why not, in Vincennes. The one odd thing I did not quite understand was the Lord of the Ring memorabilia in the room. It felt a bit out-of-place. The other thing I liked was the very quick check-in. No annoying form to fill out, no credit card, just a name and a key in return. That was really appreciated. less

Charming, quaint, clean and comfortable. The location is very convenient. There are lots of shops and restaurants around. Walking distance to Metro station. The staff were super friendly and helpful. Will come back! less

I've stayed here several times now and it's never let me down. Rooms are small and the decor a matter of taste - mock-baronial style in homage to the Chateau de Vincennes opposite - but everything works. Breakfast is OK too - mainly continental but with scrambled egg and bacon for the international visitor. less

Is ok hotel but rooms are very small breakfast not much at all for smokers get room number 3-4 and 5 you can Smok just out side the door clean rooms but very cold out side the hotel ther is a lot of restaurant and shops less

Although a chain, Best Western Saint Louis has all the charm of a family-run business. Lovely and warm during a freezing spell,, my room was spotless, not huge but not cramped, while the bathroom was a generous size with a separate WC. The bed was so deliciously comfortable I wanted to take it home. The 6€ cold buffet breakfast offered a very impressive choice of fresh fruits, cheese and meats. Top marks to the whole staff for friendly efficiency and helpfulness. I will stay here again. less
