" The Hotel Paris Rivoli was a good place to stay for three reasons; courtesy, accommodation and convenience. During my stay I never encountered the rudeness that Americans are forewarned to anticipate but was treated graciously and kind.
The elevator and sleeping quarters were typical for Europe, yet they managed to have an extra bed, a desk and free WIFI in my room, and the bathroom, larger than those in other countries, felt like a luxury.
The hotel's continental breakfast had melt in your mouth croissants and excellent coffee, but for something a little more substantial there are sidewalk cafes nearby. You can also walk to The Louvre, Notre Dame Cathedral, The Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe.
If you're going to Europe and expect a run of the mill American hotel where everything is the same old, same old, don't stay here. If you want to immerse yourself in Paris for what is considered inexpensive by French standards, this hotel is the one for you. "
