Time Out
"This isn't the type of place you’d come for lunch every day... but if you want to splash out, this one of the most beautiful hotels in Paris." Full review

Gayot

BlackBook

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
