On a work trip in Paris I stayed in the Pullman Paris Montparnasse, which was a 13 story hotel. I was given room 805 without any issues. The room was quite small, but it was nice and clean. The only problem was the small fridge. I was the last person to arrive on my trip so they took me out to dinner. The dinner was a short walk away so I had no problem getting back to the hotel. The only issue came when I found out the elevators didn't go to the top floor. Turns out everything past floor 12 is basically a staff space. I had to go up to floor 12 and find a set of stairs to go up to my floor.<br><br>Inside I saw a nice, albeit small hotel room. The room had a nice bed as well as a desk and a TV.<br><br>The fridges at Pullman hotels only get to around 50°F. It was also a pretty small fridge. It was nice, but the fridge quality was a let down.<br><br>The bathroom was quite small. It didn't have a separate tub or shower like most Pullman hotels, and the sink was quite small.<br><br>The standout part of the room was the view. Out the window I had an excellent view of the Eiffel Tower. It was ever so slightly obstructed, but it was still an amazing view.<br><br>This was a nice hotel and I was happy staying here, but the fridge and the bathroom were a let down. Also, there was only one entrance to the hotel, which was through a small corridor. On the other side of the hotel there was a locked door that was only accessible with a key, which I did not have. Overall I enjoyed my stay, but I was a little letdown.<br><br>Edit: I only stayed in this hotel room for 1 night. After that, I had to switch rooms. I was given room 1202 (a corner room) and it was a massive improvement. The room was larger, the fridge was bigger and colder, and the bathroom was also larger. The view still wasn't as good though.<br><br>Edit 2: I'm back in Paris and staying at this hotel again. This time I am in room 1202 again, and the room is just as nice as before. I am now in room 805 again and it's exactly as before. Not too much to say.<br><br>Edit 3: I am back in Paris, and I am staying at hotel Pullman Paris tour Eiffel. Once I get time I will do a post comparing the two hotels.<br><br>​
