Hotel Grandes Ecoles

We are going to Paris at the end of June and we are interested in getting info on the Hotel Grandes Ecoles. Any info from anyone?

a much-praised hotel here; if you do a search here on it you will find tons of past (and recent) comments

Hi. In February, I tried to get reservations at this hotel for my trip in June, and they were booked. Better hurry for your reservations, and have a 2nd and 3rd choice for hotels. Good Luck!

I'm not sure if it matters in June or not or if it makes a difference in your hotel choice, but the Hotel Grandes Ecoles is not air conditioned. At least it was not when we inquired about 2 months ago.

Magda,<BR><BR>I hate to tell you but you may be out of luck reserving a room. We are going to Paris in October and I enquired about availability at Grandes Ecoles. I was told that for October they cannot take reservations until 4 months before arrival, so for us that meant June. As you are thinking of going in June they've been accepting reservations since February. You can try but it is very popular so you should have several other hotels in mind. Good luck.
