I am staying at the Hotel Raphael in Sept. There are very few reviews for this Hotel although it is a 4-5 Star Property. Does anyoe have any experience with this property- good or bad?
Thank you

All I know is that they have a rooftop bar/restaurant that is supposed to be divine!
Looks very nice from the outside!

Hello,
Went to it in June, although not on the caliber of the Ritz/Crillon hotels, it still is one of the best hotels that I have been to. It has a very cozy feeling, not one of pomposity, and all the staff seem to be happy at what they are doing, and the concierges do a great job calling for restaurant reservations as soon as they can, trying everything they can do to make you have the best stay possible. The rooftop bar, is spectacular in the day (views of eiffel tower, arc d%26#39;triomphe, and Sacre-Coeur), but it really is worth seeing at night (turns into a restaurant, not worth eating) but go up to see the view that really brings meaning to %26quot;the city of light%26quot;.
The hotel is just off the Arc d%26#39;Triomphe in a very expensive residential area frequented by rich little ladies with their poodles and men in their suits who live just steps away from their financial companies. Compared to the rest of Paris which can become boisterous at night, this area is very residential and quiet which helps for a nice stroll at night.
