Hotel Residence Foch

The hotel is clean, well presented, with friendly staff. It was a good base for us, being a short walk to Porte Maillot metro station. Metro yellow line C was having some engineering works done, but we managed to navigate alternative ways around quite easily. Top tip is to buy the Navigo pass, but take passport photos with you as you must stick you photo on your card before using it. Breakfast is good, with someone always on hand to help.

I did pay extra to ensure we had a double bed (it is Paris after all), but it was 2 single beds pushed together. I know that's a bit of a first world problem, but is literally the only issue we had. We would certainly go back.

The area of the hotel is quite and fancy, 2 minutes walk there is a mini market, 3 minutes walk u can find scooter and bike parking where u can rent it, 6 minutes walk the metro station, all these transportations could use to go to champs elyse road which is 12 minutes walk from the hotel. The hotel is so cozy and comfortable and clean. The room is clean and enough space for the 2 persons, u can open the window. The bathroom is good it had a hanger to dry up ur towel or wet clothes. We were staying in first floor which I used to go up by stairs but of course they have an elevator

Nothing

The staff were amazing! I wish I could say more but honestly so friendly, helpful and attentive! Location was great, 30 mins for Gard Du Nord by car, short walk to Metro station (EUR8 day travel pass) and even a nice walk to some key tourist attractions. When getting around by car use the Uber app. To those travelling via Eurostar we got a taxi to / from Gard Du Nord and it should cost no more than EUR30 one way. We unfortunately were caught in tourist trap on arrival offering a “bargain” fixed rate, you live and learn. When jumping in a cab, always request on the meter. It’s a lovely quaint hotel which does have lots of quirks (little lift/elevator large enough for two) which many have complained about but there are stairs …. Our room was nice and tidy with lovely Rituals toiletries in the bathroom. Bed was comfortable even though it was two singles pushed together. We both slept well although for light sleepers earplugs may help with some of the outside noise (although it was minimalistic).

I wouldn’t say we “didn’t like” anything. Few things worth noting: We booked a room with a balcony, it had a balcony but with a small table and one chair which slotted exactly in the space (was actually quite funny) but I appreciate some may be unamused The breakfast at EUR18 each was a little steep but there was plenty to offer pastry, yogurt and fruit wise.

Super friendly staff Great location - walkable to Champs Elysées, Bois de Boulogne, Fondation Vuitton, Jardin d'Acclimatation, lots of nice restaurants/brasseries/bars and metro just around the corner Very comfortable room Hotel had a boutique feel Excellent breakfast

Some of the equipment in the room could do with an update (kettle, shower, bedside lamp...) Room on the small side Our category of room only came with French TV channels The request for twin beds when making the reservation on Booking.com had not been communicated to the hotel (the hotel themselves suggested always to underline any such request in the comments/special request to avoid any disappointment)

The front desk receptionist was very welcoming when we arrived and had our room ready. We stayed for 10 nights and our stay was very comfortable all throughout. The rooms are very clean. The area is quiet and a 10 mins walk to Arc de Triumph, the metro is also close by and about 5 mins walk. It is also safe if you are walking back late at night. Everyone who worked there was always nice and responsive to questions. Thank you for making our trip to Paris smooth and for accommodating us. We will be booking here if we are back in your beautiful city 😊

The only issue was the shower door. It kept leaking water into the bathroom floor so we had to keep towels near the bathtub so that it doesnt flood the bathroom. Other than that, we had no issues.

Breakfast was perfect! We enjoyed every bite of freshly baked baguettes and croissants. The cheese of 3-4 different kinds were delicious! Fresh juice of 3 kinds, natural yogurt of 3-4 kinds, cereals and musli, dried fruit, fruit salad - everything was fresh and daily renewed. Special thanks for our cooked eggs. We could have scramble eggs, sunny up eggs, boiled eggs and omelettes. The stuff was very kind to us! Bader, Alexandra, Reduane were so helpful in ordering taxi, finding best deals with car rental, money exchange, etc. The location is top! Arc de Triumph and Champs Elysees just 10 minutes walk. 3 metro/RER stations nearby. It was very easy to get to Monmartre, Louvre, Notre Dame. Trocadero square with the best view on the Eiffel Tower is 20 minutes walk in a pleasant neibourhood of Victor Hugo square.

This is our second stay at this peaceful, small hotel close to the Arc de Triumph. The staff is wonderful and very helpful to English speaking guests who have minimal command of French. Our favorite room has a small terrace where you can enjoy a partial view of the Eiffel Tower. It is especially lovely at night when the Tower sparkles on the hour. The rooms have been refurbished since our last visit and, while small, are beautiful, completely up to date and very comfortable. Compared to other Paris hotels, Residence Foch prices are very reasonable. We are dedicated Metro users while in Paris and find the hotel is convenient to three Metro stops and multiple Metro and RER lines including the main Metro line that stops at most major central Paris hi-lights. We also enjoyed the daily breakfast offered guests. This visit we discovered a Michelin starred restaurant around the corner from the hotel so had a magnificent dinner on the last night of our stay literally steps from the hotel. I look forward to returning to Hotel Residence Foch.

Staff exceptionally helpful and friendly. Excellent air conditioning. Breakfast includes choice of eggs as well as fresh pastries. In 16th arr. so quieter than central Paris but easy Uber or bus or Metro to all sites in city. By 2024 will be short walk to new tram station. Nearby cafes filled with locals not tourists. Nearby pharmacy well stocked and helpful.

Elevator is small even by Paris standards - 1 person + 1 piece rolling luggage. Shower door does not prevent water from getting on the floor.

If you are planning a trip to Paris, stop what you are doing and have a look at Hotel Residence Foch. This property is an exceptional boutique hotel in the exclusive (and expensive) 16th, a 10 minute walk from the L'Arc de Triumph. The hotel is cozy, comfortable, well appointed and caters to those looking for Parisienne elegance at an affordable price. We cannot say enough about the welcome and service. We arrived late but hungry. The kitchen was closed, but the staff still prepared a cheese/cold cut platter for us along with some refreshing champagne. It was a really special experience. There are many wonderful restaurants in the area and the staff made knowledgeable recommendations. They also helped with arranging transportation around the city. The manager, Badr, and his staff Lisa, Elise and Eddine go out of their way to make you feel at home and appreciated as a customer. Even our few suggestions on some fixes required for the room (lightbulbs, faucets, etc.) were all fixed the next day when we returned to the room. If you are fan of large bathrooms, they were quite good size and spacious. It is our new favorite place to stay in Paris and we will surely be back soon.

Nothing to dislike about this property. As expected, the rooms were small but this is normal for Paris. If a larger room is preferable, the hotel has them. Despite the small size of our room, we were fine with all of our luggage and the bed was really comfortable.

Great central location. Clean and pleasant interiors. Comfortable bed and lovely soft sheets. The staff were very attentive and helpful.

There was an issue with the AC as the unit was still set for winter months so it wouldn't cool the time we were there. But with the windows open the room was cool so it wasn't really an issue.
