Hôtel Bourg Tibourg Review

Scented candles and subdued lighting announce designer-du-jour Jacques Garcia's mix of haremlike romance and Gothic contemplation. Royal-blue paint and red velvet line the claustrophobic halls, and Byzantine alcoves hold mosaic-tile tubs. Rooms are barely bigger than the beds, and every inch has been upholstered, tasseled, and draped in a cacophony of stripes, florals, and medieval motifs. A pocket garden has room for three tables, leafy plants, and a swath of stars above.

    Love this place. The rooms are small but that is common. Gio was extremely friendly and helpful. Can't wait to come back.

    We just spent a night at the Hotel Bourg-Tibourg and loved it. It is, however, not for every traveler. On the plus side: the neighborhood is charming and central but not noisy, the bed was large and comfortable (and NOT one of those wretched 2 twins pushed together to be a pseudo-king!), the bathroom was plush and well-appointed, the breakfast was superb, the room and hotel in general were lovely, and the service was friendly. On the negative side: the rooms are too small for anyone with more than one small suitcase, our tub was tucked into a nook so the shower was hand-held, and the rooms are not designed for a traveler who needs a desk -- basically, there's a bed and a TV and that's it. I believe that the previous reviewer with a lighting problem may not have realized that the non-mood light is on a complicated, European dimmer -- took me a while to figure out, but when I did, I had the opportunity to make the room dazzlingly bright -- no problem. In any event, the hotel was perfect for our needs -- pleasure travelers with only a small suitcase.
