The only positive of this hotel is the location. Once arriving at the hotel we found out it is heavily under construction and the elevator was not in service (we were not aware of this ahead of time). We were staying on the fifth floor, luckily they had someone to carry the luggage but he really seemed to struggle despite this being his job. After our second night we woke up to lots of ants in the bathroom, which was very disgusting. The ants seemed to be coming out of a hole in the wall in the bathroom floor. We spoke to the manager and he luckily moved us to another room but was very rude. When asked about some sort of reimbursement he all but laughed in my face saying I should’ve told him the previous day but there were not any ants the previous day. The new room also had ants and bugs in the bathroom. Luckily there was a door separating the bathroom hall to the bedroom so we tolerated it for our final night but we were not happy and would never stay here again. In addition, the stairs every morning have garbage bags on every floor and due to the construction the rooms are very dusty. I would recommend not staying here.

Dear Madame,We thank you for taking the time to share your experience at the Hôtel Derby Eiffel. We are deeply sorry to learn that your stay did not live up to your expectations and we would like to offer you our most sincere apologies for the inconveniences encountered.We understand your frustration regarding the ongoing renovation work and the out-of-service elevator. We have nevertheless clearly indicated on our Expedia group page that we are in the process of renovating the rooms and the elevator. We do everything we can to minimize the impact of renovations on our customers and continually improve our services.The situation with ants in your bathroom is unacceptable and we sincerely regret that this disrupted your stay. We have taken immediate action to resolve this issue and strengthen our cleaning and maintenance protocols to prevent this from happening again. Our service checked your room and they found a single ant in the bathroom.You continued your stay in another room on the fifth floor, in turn it was checked before and nothing in it.The trash bags on the stairs are there during room cleaning during the day, and in the afternoon before check-in we take them down to the basement in the large trash bin. Once again, we offer our most sincere apologies.

We stayed 8 nights at this hotel. The room was recently renovated with a comfortable bed and pillows. The bathroom was big enough to shower and the hotel provided shampoo and soap. We got a beautiful view! The Eiffel Tower was just outside our window to enjoy every night. The eight nights we spent here were great!

When we checked in the hotel was an obvious construction zone as under renovation but person checking us in said elevator is under construction and no mention of everything else which included hammering until 9pm last night and work that started at 8 am this morning. Our room was very tired looking with paint peeling off the walls. Hallway was noisy as with no working elevator people had to haul luggage up and down the stairs which were right outside our door. The location is good. The staff were polite. Based on my experience here and the condition of the hotel I would not stay here again and definitely feel the hotel needs to advise people of this Reno when they book.

The property was under construction so lot of dust and no elevator.. this may be just our timing but I would have expected to be informed of the construction. Also I booked the hotel basically for AC and the AC was not working. I did not sleep well for my entire stay.. the location is definitely good and everything is walkable.

The property was very clean. The staff was very friendly. The cleaning people was very good always ready for extra water or toilet paper. breakfast in the morning was great downstairs everybody was always with a smile and very friendly. Special thanks to the young kid who helped out with my bags always ready to help and to answer any of my questions. I have to mention there is no working elevator so if you stay in the upper floors be ready to walk up.

This property is under construction and we didn’t get notified. People are working and painting while you are at your room. Rooms smells like paint and what they advised is to open the window. The elevator is not working either. I would recommend if you work do it by floor and notify the guests that is being remodeled. Other than that is a 15 min walk to the tower and a metro station is close

Booked this on the basis of good reviews but was disappointed. The room was shabby and needed redecorating. The bath was old and had no plug. The shower head was blocked. The sound of hot water in the pipes in the morning woke us up. The receptionists were obliging but indifferent. They did give us a bath plug. The room was cramped and basic. Disappointing for the price but at least the location was convenient for the Eiffel Tower.

Stag was friendly, location was excellent with metro practically in the corner and the Eiffel Tower just there (can see it from the hotel door), and a short walk away. Many dinning options. Facilities would need better maintenance, staff does what it can with a medium kept building (considering that it was built in the 1750’s or there about) location and staff make up for age, I will gladly stay there again.

This is a hidden gem of a place to stay while in Paris. It is a short walk from the Eiffel Tower and to numerous bakeries and restaurants. The metro is close by as well making it easy to get around the city. We had a pleasant stay and would recommend this hotel to anyone that is wanting to tour the city and be out and about.
