I rented this room for my mother who was visiting Paris for the first time. We frequently host our family, friends, and business associates at Jardin de Villiers. The hotel is clean and in a good location. However, she was given a room on the ground floor right next to the front entrance. She could hear every single door opening and closing. She could hear every conversation. She couldn't open the windows because of the people smoking cigarettes right outside the window. After suffering through 2 nights, we asked to be moved to a different room for her last night in Paris. The receptionist gave us several different excuses as to why we could not change rooms. None of their excuses made any sense. We asked the front desk to change our rooms early in the morning, before any new guests had checked in. We've hosted our friends, family, and business associates several times at Jardin de Villiers. We will not be returning. Other comparable hotels in the area include Hotel Duette (on Rue de Levis) and the Best Western Plus Opera Batignolles (on Rue de Rome).
