Prepare to be wowed! This isn’t just any hotel room; it’s a suite with a view that will leave you speechless. I’m talking about the Pullman Eiffel Suite (now known as the Penthouse Eiffel Suite), nestled within the Pullman Paris Eiffel Tower Hotel. This isn’t just a place to stay, it’s a Parisian paradise, and I’m here to share my unforgettable experience.
The Eiffel Tower in Your Living Room
Let’s be honest, the Eiffel Tower is the ultimate symbol of Paris. And in the Pullman Eiffel Suite, you get to wake up to its iconic silhouette every morning. This suite boasts an unmatched view, arguably the best you can find in the entire city. I’ve researched countless options, even consulted my American Express Platinum concierge, and nothing compares to this breathtaking panorama.
Prepare for a Splurge
Now, let’s talk about the price tag. This exclusive suite doesn’t come cheap, but it’s truly an investment in an unforgettable experience. It’s the most I’ve ever paid for a single night in a hotel, but trust me, the luxurious amenities and unparalleled view make it worth every penny.
Inside the Pullman Eiffel Suite: A Symphony of Space and Luxury
Step into a world of spacious elegance. This suite is enormous, clocking in at 110 square meters, which is 50% larger than my entire flat in Scotland! Imagine, floor-to-ceiling windows framing the Eiffel Tower from every corner of the room, filling the space with natural light.
A World of Amenities
You’ll be greeted by a well-stocked bar area, complete with a mini-fridge featuring prosecco, wine, beer, water, and soft drinks. A Nespresso machine awaits for your coffee fix, and a selection of glasses and mugs ensures you’re well-equipped for any beverage.
Relax and Unwind
Sink into the plush corner sofa in the seating area, where a 46-inch flat-screen TV with a Bose sound system provides entertainment. The marble dining table is ideal for enjoying room service (more on that later), or dining al fresco on the balcony if the Parisian weather is agreeable.
A Bedroom Fit for Royalty
The luxurious bedroom can be closed off from the main suite with sliding doors, offering privacy and seclusion. Sleep soundly on the king-size bed, adorned with superb pillows, and enjoy the convenience of another 46-inch flat-screen TV and a chaise longue. Double doors lead directly to the balcony, allowing you to step out and admire the Eiffel Tower at your leisure.
Spa-Like Bathroom Indulgence
The bathroom is a haven of relaxation. A double bath sits gracefully in the corner, filled with C. O. Bigelow toiletries, and a rain shower with a hand shower provides a refreshing experience. Two sinks, two mirrors, and a second toilet complete this luxurious space.
Beyond the Basics: Extra Touches of Luxury
Whether you’re staying for a night or an extended stay, this suite offers an abundance of storage space, including a walk-in wardrobe. Enjoy music throughout the suite thanks to a Bose dock with an iPad.
A View That Will Steal Your Heart
This Pullman Eiffel Suite review wouldn’t be complete without gushing about the breathtaking view. It’s more than just a view, it’s an unforgettable experience. From the balcony, stretching the entire length of the suite, you can witness the Eiffel Tower sparkling for five minutes every hour from 6pm to 1am. This spectacle is perfect for capturing Insta-worthy photos.
The Pullman Paris Eiffel Tower Hotel: Your Parisian Home Base
The Pullman Paris Eiffel Tower Hotel offers a welcoming atmosphere and exceptional service. With 430 rooms, including nine different types and three suite options, there’s something for everyone. The FRAME brasserie and bar provide options for dining in, and the hotel is conveniently located within walking distance of the Eiffel Tower.
Getting There: A Breeze
The hotel is easily accessible from both Charles de Gaulle Airport and Paris Orly Airport. The Gare Champ de Mars Tour Eiffel station is a short walk away, and you can reach it from Charles de Gaulle Airport using a combination of RER B and RER C services in just under an hour. Alternatively, take the Le Bus Direct on line 2, which will take around 60-70 minutes. If you prefer to drive, paid parking is available at the hotel.
Culinary Delights: Room Service to the Rescue
With such a stunning view from our suite, we opted for room service rather than venturing down to the brasserie. Start your meal with a selection of appetizers, ranging from soup to a delectable chopped avocado salad with smoked salmon toast. Main courses include everything from linguine to a mouthwatering 300g seared strip steak, and desserts are equally tempting, with options like chocolate fondant, cheese, and fruit salad.
A Final Verdict: A Parisian Dream Come True
Would I recommend staying at the Pullman Eiffel Suite? Absolutely! It’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience that will leave you with memories to cherish forever. While the price might seem steep, the luxurious amenities, unparalleled view, and exceptional service make it a worthwhile investment in a truly unforgettable Parisian adventure.
