I loved the public areas of this hotel and most of the staff were quite friendly. The rooms were interesting – we had a duplex but it was quite small and the spiral staircase was just irritating after the novelty wore off (24 hours). The breakfast was expensive and shocking in quality and adequacy. This hotel is in a great location, is a beautiful restored building with wonderful public areas to read or have an expensive drink but the rooms are not worth the fairly high price. There is a very good restaurant if you come out of the hotel and turn left, cross the next road, carry on and it is about 50 metres along on the left. The excellent Berthillon ice cream is nearby too. The two/three restaurants opposite the hotel and generally poor quality and bad value.
Hotel du Jeu de Paume is situated in Ile Saint Louis, aris.
“Every year since 1989″
from Traverse city – 26 february 2006 (Tripadvisor)
This ideally located hotel was opened in 1988….my first of many stays there was in 1989 and each year when I traveled to Paris, I always tried to get a room at L’Hotel du Jeu de Paume, becoming over time a “habitue”…..we became friendly with the owner and her daughter, Madame Elyane Prache and Nathalie Hecker and with their, now deceased dog, Enzo. Once when we visited at Lent, a wonderful Gateau du Roi awaited us…so large, we had to share it with the entire staff of 15……The last time we were there , a slight problem with the sewage beneath the hotel caused some odor problems…in fact, one guest left in the middle of the night, creating for the staff a terrible embarrassment……but, like good friends everywhere, small inconviences are offset by the gentility of the people and we would not hesitate to return ………..
