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