Hotel Stella Etoile in central Paris

Hotel Stella Etoile Paris is a 4-star hotel in the 17th arrondissement in central Paris. We stayed here for one night during our road trip in France.

The hotel is located just off the Arc De Triumph and Champs Elyse. The area was quite lovely, with small restaurants and bakeries, and it was close to the main street, with shopping.

The room and facilities

The room was small, with a queen-size bed. It was clean and had a fantastic view of the Arc de Triomphe. The decor on the walls was cool shots of Paris, and I had this super cool old-style black phone on the bedside table.

Our room was on the fifth floor, but the hotel had an elevator. No worries about dragging your luggage up the stairs. Don’t forget to open the doors of your French balcony and enjoy the view of the Arch 😍

The bathroom was small but decent and had small bottles of soap, shampoo, and body lotion.

The hotel offered breakfast for an extra charge, but there was a bakery just a few meters down the street where you could get much more value for money.

The personnel were friendly and spoke English.

As this was a busy season, the prices were too high – we paid 250 euros for one night. We were a bit late with our bookings and were looking for a hotel with a view since we were only staying in Paris for one night. 

All in all perfect stay for one or two nights in Paris, in a central location and nice and cozy neighborhood.

We got a discount on our stay in exchange for an honest and personal review.
