Imagine waking up to the majestic Eiffel Tower right outside your window. This isn’t a dream, it’s a reality at the Pullman Paris Eiffel Tower Hotel, where the Penthouse Eiffel Suite (formerly known as the Eiffel Suite) offers an unforgettable Parisian experience. This review will delve into the luxurious amenities and breathtaking views that make this suite truly exceptional.
This suite is far from your average hotel room. It boasts a spacious layout, larger than the reviewer’s entire apartment! This is the only suite of its kind in the hotel, so if you desire this Parisian sanctuary, you’ll need to book early, especially for popular dates. Let’s explore what this suite offers for its hefty price tag.
A Symphony of Space and Luxury
Stepping into the suite is like entering a world of opulence. You’ll be greeted by a well-stocked bar area on your right. While the mini-fridge comes fully loaded with tempting beverages like prosecco, wine, and beer, only water and soft drinks are complimentary. However, the cost of the other drinks is in line with what you’d expect to pay in a hotel. You’ll also find tea and coffee (Nespresso machine) along with a selection of glasses and mugs for your enjoyment.
Relax and unwind in the dedicated seating area. This space features a cozy corner sofa, a stylish table, and a 46-inch flat-screen TV complete with a Bose speaker system. The floor-to-ceiling windows and doors allow natural light to flood the suite, showcasing the awe-inspiring views of the Eiffel Tower.
A magnificent marble dining table takes center stage. This elegant table seats four comfortably, inviting you to savor room service delicacies (details below). For those seeking a Parisian al fresco experience, a balcony provides an outdoor dining option, weather permitting. A conveniently located bathroom is just before you enter the bedroom.
Parisian Retreat: Bedroom and Bathroom
The bedroom is a sanctuary of comfort. You can enjoy complete privacy with sliding doors that separate it from the main suite. A king-size bed, adorned with the comfiest pillows, awaits you for a restful slumber. This spacious bedroom features everything you’d expect in a luxury hotel, including a chaise longue and another 46-inch flat-screen TV. Double doors lead directly to the balcony, offering an escape to the fresh air and breathtaking views.
The bathroom is a luxurious escape. A double bath with a luxurious selection of C. O. Bigelow toiletries beckons you for a relaxing soak.

The Pinnacle of Parisian Views
The most captivating feature of this suite is its unparalleled view of the Eiffel Tower. The reviewer meticulously researched for the best Eiffel Tower view from a hotel room and this suite reigns supreme.

A continuous balcony extends the length of the suite. The balcony offers a stunning vantage point, complete with a table and chairs for enjoying the panoramic views.
