The 94-room mid-range Hotel Auteuil Tour Eiffel offers a decent value for travelers who don't mind being outside of Paris' lively core -- despite the name, the Eiffel Tower is a 25-minute walk from the hotel. Soft-hued, simple rooms are large and feature coffeemakers and flat-screen TVs. Rooms are air-conditioned, but guests
complain that's it's not great. Wi-Fi is free, and there is an
on-site restaurant and bar as well as breakfast, though it isn't free. Outdoor parking is available as
well with a daily fee. For far more stylish rooms and a livelier location with three-pearl amenities, travelers should consider Hotel Joyce in the 9th Arrondissement.

Scene
A straightforward hotel with generic personality
A square '80s building with
little charm houses the Hotel Auteuil Tour Eiffel. The hotel has a relaxed, quiet
atmosphere, but overall it lacks personality and color. White tile floors and neutral tones define the common areas,
with black leather waiting room-style chairs and generic dark wood furniture. The restaurant and breakfast room is cute but spartan, and feels more like a bright cafeteria than an intimate place for a meal, with light wood modern chairs and black-and-white Parisian photographs on the walls. The hotel attracts all types of guests, from couples and families to business travelers.
Location
In the residential 16th Arrondissement, a seven-minute walk to the metro
The Hotel Auteuil Tour
Eiffel is in a quiet residential neighborhood in the 16th
Arrondissement. There isn't much in the immediate area, though it is one of the city's most affluent neighborhoods. Despite the hotel's name, the Eiffel Tower is actually a 25-minute walk (or five-minute drive) from the hotel, as are many of the district's sights, like the Paris Museum of Modern Art and the Trocadero Gardens. The
metro and Radio France Concert Hall are a seven-minute walk, as is Pont
Mirabeau. The Champs-Elysees, Arc de Triomphe, and Musee
Marmottan Monet are around 10 minutes away by car. Tourist attractions including the
Louvre and Notre Dame Cathedral are a 15-minute drive while the Orly Airport is at least 30 minutes away by taxi and it will take up to an hour to reach Charles de Gaulle Airport depending on traffic.
Rooms
Slightly dated, bland rooms with en-suite bathrooms and flat-screen TVs
Like the common areas, the
spacious rooms have bland decor that's almost identical to that in the lobby -- semicircular black
leather chairs and dark wood tables -- plus wicker-panel headboards and desks in light shades that aren't exactly contemporary. Walls have a soft golden hue, wall art is an afterthought, and carpeting is red and of the office variety. That being said, these rooms are clean and large by Parisian standards, and all have air-conditioning, flat-screen
TVs, coffeemakers, and minibars. Some have courtyard views. Guests complain that the air-conditioning isn't up to par. White tile bathrooms have bright green or black quartz vanities with shower/tub combos and toiletries -- some also have bathrobes.
Features
On-site restaurant and bar plus free Wi-Fi; fees for parking, pets, and breakfast
Small plates as well as
wine, beer, and cocktails are available at the hotel's restaurant and bar while the breakfast -- offered for a fee -- includes eggs,
cereal, pastries, sausages, fruit, and cheeses. Room service is available. There is a computer and printer available in the lobby and Wi-Fi is free. Small pets are allowed
with a daily fee and there is on-site parking, which also has a daily fee. The hotel's front desk is staffed around the clock and can provide concierge services. Airport transfers can be arranged for a fee and laundry services are also available.
