During my review trip to Bangkok, I had a couple of nights in Paris, where I wanted to check out new hotels. For the first night, I stayed at SAX Paris, Hilton LXR, which was not for me. The second night, I stayed at Hotel du Louvre Paris, Hyatt Unbound Collection. As a Category 7 World of Hyatt property, I booked this for 35,000 points, compared to a cash rate of around €600.
I had a pleasant stay at Hotel du Louvre, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it. The property has a good sense of place, and feels like what you’d expect from a historic Parisian hotel. That being said, it doesn’t really have a “wow” factor, and it definitely wouldn’t be my first choice in Paris. For that matter, with the Park Hyatt Paris Vendome being only marginally more expensive when redeeming points, I’d definitely prefer that.
While I’ll have a full review soon, in this post I’d like to share my initial thoughts.
In this post:
As a lifetime World of Hyatt Globalist member, I was upgraded to a Louvre Suite. The suite was very spacious, with a massive living room, though I have to be honest, it looked much nicer online. Take a look at the pictures here, and then take a look at the pictures below.
While the wall treatments were nice, I otherwise thought the design was sort of bland and a little shabby. It almost felt like they put totally cookie-cutter hotel furniture into a suite that otherwise has amazing bones.
That couch… is just not it.
