Easy location and great breakfast
Great location just off of Opera. Wonderful breakfast in the morning with an enthusiastic hostess. The main desk was always friendly, including Jean-Frederic, who went out of his way to make sure our stay was great.

The hotel was great for our stay. The only note we have is that the rooms are very small. When you have (2) suitcases, there is almost no room to maneuver around the room.

We stayed in the Hotel Gaillon in the 1980s when we lived in Europe. We also stayed in 2007 when I had a sabbatical. So we thought we would try it again--now in 2025! It was lovely--our reasonably priced room included a great shower and and an outdoor garden/statue. The best thing about it was the staff--we were able to get cabs for a very early trip to the airport--and to practice our French. Simple and homey and lovely breakfastese.

Perfect location in the Opera area near great bakeries, cafes, and brasseries. Staff was very nice and small lobby area has a lot of room for sitting and storing baggage before check in. Rooms and elevator were a big small but overall I enjoyed our experience there and would stay there again.
