Hotel Duminy-Vendome - Paris, France 

"Nice funky little hotel"
Posted: Mon, Nov 23 2009
We stayed at the Duminy Vendome in 2003. I just discovered this website, so I am trying to put reviews of past hotel stays since I think that this site is great. This is a nice little funky hotel – it seems a bit more like a Parisian apartment building than a hotel per se, which is actually a cool feeling. Breakfast was pretty nice – though funky – eating in basement/cellar and may not be so sunlite but cozy with fellow travelers. We had a room on the top floor and it was a cool little loft-like feel - - with angled ceiling. There was plenty of light. Yes, it was small - - like I said felt like Parisian apartment – but it was cool, cozy, and seemed more interesting stay than at a sterile hotel room that does not change country to country. Location is also very central and very well-located for travelers (including a Metro station very near).

We stayed in room 104.The noisiest room in the whole world.We could hear people on the street,guests coming from the elevator and guests having showers and using the loo.The plumbing was soo noisy.Went down for our prepaid breakfast at 0930,(It ends at 1000am.)and were told that all the hot food was gone and no more left.Coffee was a grey colour and staff incompetent.In formed staff at reception who just frowned at our complaints!Asked for a room change an we were told none better available.Disgraceful.Location was great but will never stay in this hotel again.Didn't get one wink of sleep in our 3 night stay.

When we arrived the room was cold because of a problem with the heating system. We called the reception and they immediately moved us in the main suite. The staff was friendly and customer oriented! In the end we had a 5 star holiday.
