Stayed there for one night on business. Located on the banlieu of Paris, on te rivver nice an quiet area,; location also good for my business. The executive rooms are brand new modenly renovated unexpected big size for Europe. Very clean, friendly stuff. I will come back anytime. Reccomend this hotel for business or pleasure with executive room booking.

This hotel is ideally located if you are on a coach trip! It's about 20mins outside the city but we travelled with Ledger and if you do all the trips you get picked up + dropped off :-) Rooms - really good, beds very comfy and when we needed more milk etc it came very quickly. My mother-in-laws flannel got taken though so she wasn't impressed! Food- breakfast was excellent! Everything for a continental breakfast plus bacon + sausages BUT we arrived late on the Friday + were asked if we wanted a 3 course meal on arrival for ¿¿¿25 we did BUT we're disappointed :-( ...just cold food, salads etc not really worth the price!! Our coach driver tried to get us some money back but no luck.All in all though a nice clean hotel, friendly staff but not ideally placed if you want to do Paris on foot!!

Stayed at the Holiday Inn Bougival, on the 19th to 22nd April, as part of Leger Coach Tour. This was my experience.Day One: As we arrived after a nine hour coach trip, we were told by the coach guide (Rob), that the Hotel was unable to offer a'la carte, due to the numbers arriving. All the Hotel could offer would be a buffet at 25 Euros per person. We asked the coach guides if there were any other restaurants in Bougival, and were wrongly told there were only two (a pizza take away and kebab shop). Thus we believed we had no alternative but to accept the buffet. Terrible mistake: When we arrived in the restaurant, it was in complete uproar with virtually everyone on our coach complaining in a very vocal way, about the appalling quality of the food, and demanding a refund. When we looked at what was causing the fuss, we saw what can only be described as pigs swill. In one container were lumps of indeterminate meat floating in ice cold marmite water, and in another were lumps of indeterminate fish floating in ice cold tomatoe coloured (but not flavoured ) water. The fish stank to high heaven, and I suspect was on the turn, so I would not eat it. The meat offering was a mixture of meat either cooked to destruction, or completely raw with blood floating into the surrounding marmite water. It was completely tasteless as the liquid had no onions or mushrooms, to flavour it, and the flavour of the meat had somehow disappeared. Vegetables accompanying the meal were semi roast potatoes, and mixed veg which had been boiled to destruction. The puddings were basically lumps of sponge cake covered in butter icing, with a bowl of oranges. Anyway after trying to chew an ice cold lump of meat for five minutes and finally forcing it down my throat, I did what everyone else did, which was to leave my meal and settle for a 5 Euro refund (in reality the entire cost should have been refunded - but we were all too tired to keep shouting). Within half an hour I started vomiting, and continued vomiting until 3.15 am. The next day, I attempted to eat half a bowl of cornflakes for breakfast, but immediately brough them up, as my stomach was still upset, and when we went into Paris, I also brought up my lunch.Day two: Breakfast OK, but TV in room stopped working, so no access to the world service. Was told that all the the TV's in the hotel had packed up, and that an engineer had been contacted (but they were still not working when we left of the 22nd April). In the evening, the restaurant closed and there was no food available at all. They said this was because most of the coach parties had gone into Paris. What sort of 4* Hotel closes it's restaurant, because guests are eating elsewhere? Don't they have any local customers who would want to eat there? There are at least a dozen restaurants in Bougival and when we went past, they all seemed packed to the gummels, so one wonders why the Holiday Inn couldn't attract local customers. The answer we suspect is because the french wouldn't tolerate such disgusting rubbish.Day three no hot water in the morning, so we had to heat a kettle and make do with a wash.This Hotel is definitely not 4*.The decor in the lounge is smart, but the corridors are dark, dingly desperately in need of refurbishment, and wreak of air freshener The room was clean and tidy, and on a par with Premier Inn, but had we stayed at a Premier Inn we would have at least had access to a restaurant. Glad to leave and wouldn't recommend to anyone.

It was my first trip to Paris and I didn't know French which had its own challenges. However, somehow I managed to reach the hotel from Gar De Nord. I was greeted by an English speaking gentleman behind the reception. He provided me guide maps of the city and how to reach Eiffel Tower as the trip to the hotel had taken almost 2-3 hrs. The room was comfortable however a long walk. The dinner was a treat including seafood. The morning breakfast buffet is a must as it will keep you full for most of day when you need to do the sightseeing. Overall a great weekend at the property.

I often stay here on business trips when available, need to book in advance if you want a basic room (not a suite).Rooms are all large and clean, with good beds and strong showers. The restaurant is expensive for what it is, I recommend getting the bus (the stop is directly across the road from the hotel) and head in to Saint Germain-en-Laye, which takes about 10mins.
