Special Update: Hotel Relais Bosquet


Bonjour,

Our hotel in Paris is great and we wanted to post a special update regarding our stay here. We have really enjoyed our hotel and were pleasantly impressed with the location, quietness, and the staff here speak much better English than I with French.

We're staying at the Hotel Relais Bosquet location is on the Rue de Cler in the Invaldes quarter. We have access to great bakeries and cafes and enjoy the quietness of the area. There is also a local market nearby where we can buy red wine for less than 2 euros!

We our on the 5th floor of the hotel so we have a view of la Tour Eiffel! It's great to be able to see it at night especially because of the strobe lighting that goes off every hour. The fog has been a bit thick, but we still have an awesome view.

The room is great and very cute. It has a queen bed and a TV that has only two English language channels (CNN and BBC). The bathroom has a vent rather than a fan and the shower is located along the wall of the bathtub, rather than at the end. The room is finished with burnt yellow wall paper with crown molding and a blue and white tiled bathroom.

Fun Facts:
  1. The elevator is the size of a small closet with a full length mirror at the end that Dave keeps running into
  2. The air freshener in the bathroom is menthol flavored
  3. We have an electric roller curtain over the window
  4. The lights will only work if the hotel key is in the slot by the door
