Mercure Paris Cusset Opera Hotel

This hotel is east of the Paris Opera, and west of the Bourse. It's on a small side street, with in inobtrusive entry. The rooms are tiny, as might be expected in a French hotel. It's amazing that the bathrooms are renovated, and look so spankingly new that they shine. They're clearly memorable. A differentiator from other hotels -- even from others in the Mercure chain nearby -- is that breakfast was included in our rate. Baguettes, ham, sausage, yogurt, fruit salad, and some fresh fruit. On an evening when I didn't feel... more

Arrived extremely late (11.30 pm!), no reservation, intended hotel a disgrace! Welcomed with courtesy. Room spacious and quiet. Spotless bathroom with good shower. Bed large, linen crisp and clean. Air con adequate. Breakfast excellent and plentiful. Staff genuinely pleasant and helpful. Some carpets a bit grubby?! Excellent location. Go to The Cardinal cafe at the corner. Would def return again.

I was in Paris from the 06 to 13 of may. I must say that prior to departure I was quite worried about the reviews on this site about this hotel. When I got there at 11h00am my room was ready. We were located on the 4th floor and our windows were facing an inside court, so no noise there. The room itself was of a good size, clean, and comfortable. We really felt at home the first night. The front desk was always helpfull and willing to make our stay the most enjoyable, I would say that the best about this hotel is the location. You... more

The Mercure Cusset Opéra is ideally located in the center of the ‘shopping district’, close to the Rue de Rivoli & Boulevard Haussmann, and 50 meters to the Richelieu-Drouot subway station. We had booked 2 double-rooms via the Mercure website and got the (so-called) promotional price of 120 euros per room per night, excluding the breakfast, we had also mentioned that we would appreciate to be accommodated on the upper floors if possible. When we arrived around 11.00 in the morning, our rooms were not ready yet. We were... more

I got this hotel on Priceline as a 3-star hotel. Other Paris 3-stars I've gotten through Priceline were totally disgusting; with this one, I was very pleasantly surprised. I got there at 11 a.m. and my room was ready for me. It was clean, and while not large, there was room for me and my luggage. I got a queen-size bed (not two twins pushed together). The bathroom was huge, with a full bathtub/shower. The staff was very nice. The only reason I don't give it five dots ('excellent') is because one night I had problems sleeping and wanted to... more

I had a single room that was rather small but had all the comforts that I required. Bathroom was nice but small as well. This is an old hotel but with sufficient class to make it worthwhile to stay there again. The buffet breakfast was very good. Staff was very helpful. Within a one minute walk is the metro station which allows you to travel throughout the city. Also on the corner by the metro is a very nice restaurant called the Cardinal.

A friend and I stayed at this hotel in mid May, 2005. Our room was very large by European standards, but very bland and a bit dingy. The bathroom could have stood a good cleaning. Our biggest complaint was that there is no AC until after June 1. The first night it was very hot and with the countless misquitoes outside, we left the windows closed. The second night we decided to risk the bug bites and luckily a cool front came in. Our windows opened into an interior roof area so the noise was not bad. Breakfast was good, but the coffee... more

Great location, friendly staff, 100 yards from the Hard Rock Cafe, 10 minute walk to the Louvre. Fantastic city, friendly people. Clean but room was small about 12 x 12 feet. Bathroom old & a little grotty, rusty metal work in places, grotty grouting at floor level. Bed was a 4'6" double. Outside noise well suppressed by double glazing. Complementary breakfast was great. The real problem was the heater, you can turn off the electric by a wall mounted thermostat but the water still ran through it and made a... more

We stayed here in June of 2004. Friendly staff & the most comfortable bed we ever slept in made this hotel experience a great one for us. The breakfast was outrageously priced, but there was a stand about two blocks away that offered a delicious breakfast for a piddling 2 euro (it included a croissant, pain au chocolat, and cafe) so we coped just fine. Our room was a good size but our friends' room just next door was laughably small; there appears to be quite a bit of variance in room size at this hotel. That aside, a Metro stop is only... more

My husband and I spent two weeks at this hotel awaiting an apartment for a six month work assignment that I had in Paris. It was clean and comfortable and very conveniently located. The room has standard amenities, including a hair dryer, and all have been recently renovated. The bathroom is larger than average, which is a very nice bonus for those accustomed to small European hotel rooms. The nearest Metro Stops are either Le Bourse or Druout-Richelieu, depending on which line you are using. L'Opera, Palais Royale, and Le Louvre are within... more
