Rough Guide
Star
"An elegant hotel, dating back to the late nineteenth century, with faux marble columns in the reception area and airy, high-ceilinged rooms."
Fodor's
"A few of Paris' most prestigious palace hotels face the Tuileries... while the Brighton sits on the same prime real estate... it offers visitors a privileged stay for a fraction of the price." Full review
Insight Guides
"Recently restored, this hotel has several rooms that overlook the Jardin des Tuileries, and a reception area awash with gilt, marble and glass chandeliers."
DK Eyewitness
"A real insiders’ location, the Brighton provides a much-sought after Rivoli address without the sky-high prices."
Time Out
"With several rooms overlooking the Tuileries gardens, the Brighton is great value, so book well ahead for a room with a view." Full review
Star Service
"Its biggest appeal, aside from location, is its relatively low prices in a neighborhood of heavy-lifters such as its next-door neighbor, the ultraluxe Meurice." Full review

"Did someone say “view”? How about a panorama of the Louvre and the Tuileries gardens from your bed?" Full review

Star
"This legendary luxury hotel, which opened in 1928, is decked out in 18C-style elegance and splendour."

"In an unbeatable location near the Champs-Élysées, this majestic 1928 white-stone hotel redefined elegance when it reopened its doors as a Four Seasons in 1997." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"This legendary hotel, dotted with salons, old furniture, and art, lost a little of its charm when it was renovated. But it gained a stunning restaurant, Le Cinq."
Time Out
"Chandeliers, marble and tapestries; glorious flower arrangements; divine bathrooms; and ludicrously comfortable beds in some of the largest rooms in all of Paris." Full review
Star Service
"With all of the changes happening around town, this place should be well-prepared to hold its own against competitors Ritz and Crillon." Full review
Gayot
"The 244 rooms and suites come with full marble bathrooms and large work desks, and some of them benefit from private terraces overlooking the city."
BlackBook
"The V is today a temple of modern luxury: marble elevators, rare tapestries, enviable antiques, famous florals...and service that's discreet enough for Michael Jackson stays."
