This suite was the absolute best place I’ve ever stayed, hands down. It was bigger than my entire apartment, and had the most breathtaking view of the Eiffel Tower imaginable. I spent hours researching to find the perfect hotel room in Paris, and this suite was definitely worth every penny. If you’re looking for a room with an incredible view of the Eiffel Tower, look no further, because you won’t find anything better! This is my review of the Pullman Eiffel Suite (now called the Penthouse Eiffel Suite), located in the Pullman Paris Eiffel Tower Hotel.

A Pricey But Unforgettable Experience
A prime view of the Eiffel Tower doesn’t come cheap, and this suite was the most expensive hotel room I’ve ever stayed in. It would typically cost me a week’s worth of accommodation! This is the only suite of its kind in the entire hotel, so if you have your heart set on it, you’ll need to act fast, especially for popular dates. Let’s delve into what you get for your money in the Pullman Eiffel Suite.

A Luxurious Space Like No Other
The suite offers a whopping 110 square meters of space – that’s 50% larger than my entire apartment! This is truly incredible, especially considering the average UK hotel room is only about 32 square meters.
(This paragraph focuses on the suite’s generous space, contrasting it with the average hotel room size and emphasizing its sheer size.)
Indulge in Luxury and Comfort
As you step into the suite, you’ll be greeted by a well-stocked bar area on your right. It’s equipped with a mini-fridge filled with prosecco, wine, beer, water, and soft drinks. Only water and soft drinks are complimentary, but the other beverages are priced competitively. You’ll also find a Nespresso machine for your coffee fix, along with a variety of glasses and mugs to suit your beverage preferences.
Next up is a comfortable seating area, featuring a corner sofa, a table, and a 46-inch flat-screen TV with a Bose speaker system for enjoying music or TV. The entire suite boasts floor-to-ceiling glass windows and doors, allowing natural light to flood in and providing stunning views. After the seating area, you’ll find a large marble dining table with four comfy chairs, perfect for savoring delicious room service. Enjoy your meals outside on the balcony if the weather permits, or choose to dine indoors in the luxurious ambiance. Before reaching the bedroom, you’ll find a well-appointed bathroom.

It’s a generous space with everything you’d expect in a luxurious bedroom, plus a chaise longue and another 46-inch flat-screen TV. The bedroom also boasts double doors leading directly to the balcony, offering breathtaking views of the Eiffel Tower.

The Unforgettable Eiffel Tower View
This Pullman Eiffel Suite review wouldn’t be complete without showcasing the breathtaking view. As mentioned earlier, I meticulously researched to find the best Eiffel Tower view from a hotel room, and this suite was undoubtedly my top pick. Even the concierge service I use through my American Express Platinum card couldn’t find anything better. The Eiffel Tower view is the most impressive feature of this suite.

A Hotel with Convenient Access and Amenities
The hotel is situated on the left bank of Paris, directly beside the Eiffel Tower. It boasts a massive 430 rooms, including nine different room types and three suite types. You’ll also find the FRAME brasserie and a bar within the hotel. Check-in starts at 2pm, and we were able to request an early check-in, arriving around noon. The check-out time is 11am, but we requested a late check-out of noon, which was readily granted.
(This paragraph provides information about the hotel’s location, size, amenities, and check-in/check-out times, highlighting the hotel’s flexibility and accommodating staff.)
Getting to the Hotel: Various Transportation Options
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 from the hotel, and you can reach it from Charles de Gaulle airport using a combination of RER B and RER C services in under an hour. The cost of this journey is around €11 (£9/$12) one way. Alternatively, you can take Le Bus Direct on line 2, which takes roughly 60-70 minutes and costs €18 (£15/$20) one way without any transfers. You can also drive to the hotel as paid parking is available.
(This paragraph provides detailed instructions for reaching the hotel from both airports, offering multiple transportation options with cost estimations.)
Delicious Room Service Options
Given the suite’s magnificent view of the Eiffel Tower and the spacious marble dining table, we opted for room service instead of venturing down to the brasserie. Starters range from €11 (£9/$12) for soup to €19 (£16/$21) for a chopped avocado salad with smoked salmon toast, with a grain bowl option in between.
Main courses start at €14 (£12/$16) for linguine and go up to €37 (£32/$41) for a 300g seared strip steak. We both opted for the steak, which was delicious! The hotel staff brought the steak up on a hot plate and set the table for us, adding to the luxurious experience. Other main course options include a spiced chicken dish and the fish of the day.
Desserts average around €12 (£10/$13), with options including chocolate fondant, cheese, and fruit salad. Some dishes across the three courses are available 24 hours a day, and the menu features a dedicated healthy options section. There’s also a “TV Dinner” option offering a sharing platter with smoked salmon, roasted chicken, ham, cheese, salad, and tortillas for €29 (£25/$32).

A Stay I’ll Never Forget
Would I stay here again? Absolutely! The price of the suite might seem daunting to most, but for a special occasion, it was truly unforgettable. This suite is extraordinary, and how often do you get to say you stayed in a room with an amazing view of the Eiffel Tower? I only wish I had the funds to stay in such luxurious accommodations on all my travels!
(This paragraph concludes the review with a resounding affirmation of the writer’s positive experience, acknowledging the cost but emphasizing the exceptional value of the suite.)
