WORST hotel I ever stayed at in my life. I give it a MINUS ONE-STAR!!!!
We paid $2,800 a year in advance for 5 nights for the Olympics 2024 , 2 single beds. My friend who did the booking and did not realize there were no AC's, given the price we were charged. Smallest space possible for bathroom/toilet with no shower door. Metal closet door was broken. We had several bruises on our bodies from bumping into things in the hotel room due to tight spaces, and we are slim 5'4 people.
Worst basic breakfast ever. Croissants/baguettes were worse than what you get from a US Target grocery store, and coffee worse than American coffe :-(
Location is excellent and central, particularly there was a Franprix (7-11 type store) next door to buy water and every little thing we needed. The store was a life saver!!!! Hotel staff were friendly and smiley and chit-chatty but useless, had no info of anything and not at all flexible in terms of any small service.
In the hotel bathroom, there were 2 small, worn out towels per person, no face towels. The bathroom was not visibly dirty but smelled funny. No shampoo/conditioner, cheapest hand soap ever found. One roll of toilet tissue provided on the toilet roll, no spares. No facial tissues.
Purple carpet in room was thin and worn out, with holes in places.
I fell sick after 2 nights due to exhaustion and inability to sleep at night because of noise/heat, and possibly invisible bacteria in the room. I had to abandon the room (though my friend stayed) and I moved to Le Lapin Blanc (3-stars with AC) and paid 350 Euros per night there and I thought I went to heaven in comparison to the hell I put up with at Flor-Rivoli. The Flor-Rivoli was worse than even hotels in the third world countries where I paid less than $100 per night.
It was a total rip-off by Flor Rivoli during the Olympics and my friend learnt an expensive lesson not to judge a hotel by the high price it charges, and to always check for AC availability in European Hotels. I will not stay in this hotel again even if the hotel PAYS ME $1000 a night!!!!! Not worth my health. read more
