Michelin Guide "A true grand hotel typical of the 19C, the Intercontinental stands on the Place de l'Opera in the heart of Haussmann's Paris."
Travel + Leisure "Since its doors first opened in 1862, Le Grand has welcomed more than a few illustrious guests—queens, kings, and maharajahs among them." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Directly next to the Opéra Garnier, the hotel is a sumptuous example of good taste."
Time Out "The space under the vast verrière is one of the best oases in town, and the hotel's restaurant and coffeehouse, the Café de la Paix, poached its chef, Laurent Delarbre, from the Ritz." Full review

For a relaxing daytime break, head to the I-Spa for one of its seawater treatments.

"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
