Flyertalk hilton paris opera2/20/2023 ![]() Does the IC Lounge in Paris have spirits? I complained about no spirits in the EL on my TripAdvisor review and they responded that the liquor laws allow no free spirits and they can only give out beer and wine. ![]() I won't be holding my breath for those 500 points. But it was the type of thing you had to fill out with a pen and of course the bartender had no idea what it was. At check in they gave me a coupon for 500 points if I spent more than €25 at the bar. ![]() The new Astor Saint Honoré Curio property is the only Hilton I would consider in central Paris. And you can check in/out in the Club at Le Grand. Le Grand has great food, full drinks with Champagne and two floors with plenty of space. And the EL is very tiny and thus no place to sit if you arrive 10 minutes after happy hour begins. But everyone was drinking the Fischer so it kept running out. No spirits, no Champagne, only cheap wine, Heineken (I think), and Fischer beer which is OK. The Hilton EL is more like a club in the US. The HI doesn't have a club, but if I try to compare the Hilton EL with the club at the IC Le Grand it isn't even close. The HI had a slightly smaller, but overall a better quality Executive room. The floor of this room was flimsy leading to an overall feeling of poor quality. Cobwebs in the room, poor job of cleaning on the second day, used beer glasses left out, garbage cans stacked together in the bathroom, etc. Yet it costs more!?!?! I had to add a third night in Paris and instead booked the cheapest Holiday Inn for €67 and it turned out to be better than the €300 Hilton.īoth the Hilton and HI gave me, a top status holder, an Executive room. They are in the same area and on the surface the same class of hotel, but it turns out the Hilton isn't even in the same league. I usually stay at the nearby IC Le Grand and I had thought I would compare this hotel with Le Grand. ![]() ![]() I did a two night award stay as Diamond and boy was I disappointed. ![]()
