Hotel w/View of Eiffel Tower
 
Does anyone have a suggestion of a hotel with a view of the Eiffel Tower. We need 3 rooms in the $159-200 range. Would rather have a typical French hotel rather than a large US chain.

Hotel de la Bourdonnais.

just stayed there for ten nights. Ask for a floor on either the 2nd or 5th floor because those have a balcony(actually 3rd and 5th since the ground floor is zero). it costs about 130 Euros for a double. Nice clean room, big for European standards, and a very big and modern bathroom even for American hotel standards

I didn't get a view room because we got a last minute booking, but I recommend the Hotel du Rond Point de Longchamp. Someone on Tripadvisor.com posted a photo of their Eiffel Tower view room. Even if you don't get a view room the tower is visible in full once you walk out the hotel. It makes a great photo op.

We enjoyed the Hotel Brighton on Rue du Rivoli. Request a room on the front,(lots of traffic noise, but a great location)..Small balcony, but standing on it(or from the french doors inside) you can see to the right the Eiffel Tower, to the left the Louvre, and straight across the street is the Tuilleres Gardens.

The Duquesne Eiffel is supposed to have 'view' rooms...

Relais Bosquet Hotel is minutes from the Eiffel Tower, I am not sure though if they have a view. But you can look it up and see :)
The Hotel Slendid on ave Tourville in the 8th has a view , it is a 3* hotel, no idea of prices.

The Duquesne-Eiffel does indeed have rooms with views of the Eiffel Tower within your budget. Nice hotel. I've been staying there off and on for almost 20 years. It's a "typical French hotel."

mari5 named Hotel Brighton. They do offer Tuileries view rooms which include a view of the Eiffel Tower. I think you should try this hotel as these rooms do get high marks. You have to specify that you want to reserve a "Tuileries view" room though.

Have a look at Hotel Les Jardins d'eiffel, they have beautifukl rooms with a terrasse and view on Eiffel Tower....The hotel is a 3 star and must fit your budget...And it is what you called the typical French hotel!!!

We stayed at the Relais Bosquet in April and had a room with a view of the Eiffel Tower. I highly recommend this hotel. Service was about as good as it gets. My review is posted on tripadvisor.com.
