Le Ballon Captif d'Epernay

Great friendly staff and clean room

Had an excellent stay at the Louvre Montana and wouldn't hesitate to stay again. The room was great: clean, comfortable bed, roomy bathroom with generous sized shower and a separate tub, excellent linens. Closet for hanging clothes was small, The morning breakfast buffet was very serviceable as one would expect. Our room faced the street and the lack of overnight noise from the street was, well, surprisingly peaceful. The location was convenient to many Paris attractions, including some maybe lesser-publicized gems like the Jardin du Palais Royal and the Galerie Vivienne. Of course, unforgettable morning strolls in the Tuileries are 1/2 a block away. Rue Saint-Honere has lots of shopping. The Louvre Montana is a smaller scale hotel. No overly spacious lobby here, but I was still able to have the receptionist pour me a nightcap from their wine and liquor shelf.
