Eiffel Trocadéro Mini-hotel

We’ve booked at this hotel mainly because of the excellent location. At arrival the staff was very welcoming and friendly, unfortunately I can’t say the same about the staff of the evening shift. We checked in at 5.30pm and the room was clean. At 7pm we left for dinner and when we came back at 9pm we noticed that our stuff in de room was moved, the bed was made up (again) and there was chocolate on our bed. We called the front office to ask who was in the room so late in the evening since I never experienced housekeeping 2x in only a couple hours and it felt sketchy like someone had been keeping an eye on when we left. The guy at the front office said he didn’t know and when I told him I didn’t feel safe not knowing who entered the room, he basically laughed at me. He said it’s normal that housekeeping entering whenever and reorganizing the room (including my personal belongings). Which is an invasion of privacy. He said he would report it to his boss and the next day his boss would contact me. The following day no one reached out to clarify. Which makes me believe he didn’t even call his boss. Something weird was going on and luckily we locked our valuable things in our suitcases and lockers.

Summarizing, the location is a solid 10. The service overall is good, only the incident with the sketchy guy at the front desk ruined our stay.

The hotel is very cute. Room we had-not so much. Location and viewing places from the hotel to Eiffel towel was very good! Staff was not very helpful and didn’t care about any concerns we had. From asking advice to the fact that we were covered in some sort of bites from something in the room. Even charged us extra for a crappy cup of coffee that they made it seem we could take.
