My wife and I spent 4 nights at the Intercontinental Le Grand on Nov 1-5, 2007. The location of teh hotel was great as you can walk to just about everything and if you prefer you can take the metro which is not even a block away. The standard room was nicely appointed with a nice bathroom. Everything about the hotel was classy from the front desk ot the concierge. Infact the concierge alone was probably worth the price of the room. We spoke no french and got along just fine. Wonderful restaurants in walking distance. we didn't dine at the hotel because it was very expensive. Can't say nice enough things about this place. I would definitely stay here again.

The rooms are minute, and lack basic luxuries such as a coffee pot. My "superior" room had peeling paint. The metro runs directly below the hotel, making the rooms vibrate every 10-15 minutes. Go to the Ritz or St. George and experience true luxury for the same price.

My wife and I just got back from a 5 night stay at the Intercontinental Le Grand. It was an overall wonderful experience.1.Location-There is a bus (roissybus) that leaves from Charles DeGaulle Airport and stops one block from the hotel. The pick up point for the bus is right outside of Terminal 1.2. We arrived at the hotel at 8:30 AM and were in our room by 8:45 AM3. There is a metro stop 1/2 block from the hotel.4. Everyone was very friendly from the check-in to the hotel maidsWould definitely stay here again

if you are arriving before 3 PM don't expect to get your room before then. the front desk staff is helpful and efficient but lacking in customer service. the hotel was recently refurbished so the rooms are beautiful and european classic but new and clean, the bathrooms are impecable and the beds are soo comfy! but unlike other classic parisian hotels like the Ritz, the reburbishments provide a sort of newer comfort. you don't feel like your staying in some drafty stuffy hotel. PS the cafe de la paix is appearantly the hottest meeting spot in town and offer uniquely parisian cuisine.

This hotel was very nuce but I was upset that there wasn't a swimming pool, and were my kids :(
