Prepare to be amazed! I recently stayed in a suite that blew me away. It wasn’t just any room; it was bigger than my entire flat and offered the most stunning views of the Eiffel Tower imaginable. I spent hours researching to find the perfect place, and this suite was the absolute winner. Trust me, you won’t find a better hotel room with such an incredible Eiffel Tower view in Paris.
Let me introduce you to the Pullman Eiffel Suite (now known as the Penthouse Eiffel Suite) at the Pullman Paris Eiffel Tower Hotel.
A Pricey But Worthwhile Experience
This suite comes with a hefty price tag—the most I’ve ever paid for a single night in a hotel. It’s worth considering this suite for a special occasion! This is the only suite of its kind in the entire hotel, so if you want to experience it, you’ll need to be quick, especially for popular dates.
Let’s take a closer look at what makes this suite so extraordinary.
Spacious Living with Eiffel Tower Views
Stepping into this suite is like entering a luxurious haven. It boasts 110 square meters of space, over 50% larger than my flat back in Scotland. This is truly extraordinary when you consider the average UK hotel room size is only around 32 square meters.
The first thing you’ll notice is the bar area, perfectly equipped with a mini-fridge stocked with prosecco, wine, beer, water, and soft drinks. While only water and soft drinks are complimentary, the other beverages are priced similarly to what you’d find in other hotels. There’s also a Nespresso machine for your coffee needs, alongside a selection of glasses and mugs to complement your drinks.
The suite seamlessly flows into a seating area, featuring a cozy corner sofa, a table, and a 46-inch flat-screen TV with Bose speakers. Floor-to-ceiling windows and doors flood the space with natural light and offer panoramic views. Just beyond the seating area, you’ll find a large marble dining table with four comfy chairs where you can enjoy room service options (more on that later). For those wanting to dine al fresco, a balcony is at your disposal, weather permitting. A bathroom is conveniently located before you reach the bedroom.
A Serene Bedroom with Eiffel Tower Views
Next up, you’ll discover the bedroom, which can be closed off from the rest of the suite using sliding doors. A king-size bed with comfy pillows promises a restful night’s sleep. The bedroom is well-appointed with all the usual amenities, including a chaise longue and another 46-inch flat-screen TV. Double doors lead directly to the balcony, so you can enjoy those breathtaking Eiffel Tower views from the comfort of your bed.
Luxurious Bathroom
On the other side of the bedroom, you’ll find the massive bathroom. It features a double bath with a luxurious selection of C. O. Bigelow toiletries, and a rainfall shower with a hand shower for added convenience. The bathroom also boasts two sinks with large mirrors and a second toilet.
For extended stays, the suite offers ample storage with a walk-in wardrobe room. There’s also a Bose dock with an iPad to play music throughout the suite.
The Highlight: Unforgettable Eiffel Tower Views
This Pullman Eiffel Suite review wouldn’t be complete without highlighting its most incredible feature – the view. I scoured the internet to find the best Eiffel Tower view from a hotel room, and this suite exceeded all my expectations. Even the concierge service I use through my American Express Platinum card couldn’t find anything better. The view from the room is simply the ultimate selling point of this suite.
The suite also features a continuous balcony running from one end to the other, complete with a table and chairs.
Insider Tip: Don’t miss the Eiffel Tower’s magical sparkling lights from 6pm to 1am, every hour on the hour. This is the perfect opportunity for some stunning Instagram photos.
Location, Amenities, and Dining
The hotel sits on the left bank of Paris, right next to the Eiffel Tower. It boasts 430 rooms in nine different types, along with three suite types. The hotel also houses the FRAME brasserie and a bar. Check-in starts at 2pm, and you might be able to request an early check-in as we did (around noon). Check-out is typically 11am, but we managed to secure a noon check-out without any problems.
Getting to the Hotel
The hotel is approximately 18 miles from Charles de Gaulle airport and 10 miles from Paris Orly airport. The Gare Champ de Mars Tour Eiffel station is a short five-minute walk away, and you can reach it from Charles de Gaulle airport using a combination of RER B and RER C services in under an hour. This will cost you around 11€ (£9 / $12) one way. Alternatively, you can take Le Bus Direct line 2, which takes around 60-70 minutes and costs 18€ (£15 / $20) one way. Of course, driving is always an option, and paid parking is available at the hotel.
Dining Options
With a stunning Eiffel Tower view from the room, a spacious marble dining table, and room service, we decided to skip the brasserie and indulge in some delicious room service. The starters range from 11€ (£9 / $12) for soup to 19€ (£16 / $21) for a chopped avocado salad with smoked salmon toast and a grain bowl in between.
The main courses start at 14€ (£12 / $16) for linguine and go up to 37€ (£32 / $41) for a 300g seared strip steak. We opted for the steak and were not disappointed! The hotel staff was kind enough to bring it up on a hot plate while setting the table for us. Other main course options include a spiced chicken dish and the fish of the day.
The desserts are around 12€ (£10 / $13) on average and offer choices such as chocolate fondant, cheese, and fruit salad. Some of the dishes across the three courses are available 24 hours a day, with healthy options clearly marked on the menu. There’s also a TV Dinner option consisting of a sharing platter with smoked salmon, roasted chicken, ham, cheese, salad, and tortillas for 29€ (£25 / $32).
Would I Stay Here Again? Absolutely!
I would wholeheartedly recommend this suite to anyone looking for a truly unforgettable experience. The price might seem steep for most, but for a special occasion, it’s worth every penny. Where else can you say you stayed in a room with an amazing view of the Eiffel Tower? If only I had the money to stay at places like this for all my trips!
