Moxy Paris Bastille Le Marais

France, Hotel Reviews, Moxy hotel, Paris, Paris, solo traveling, Travel

My 2 week stay at the Moxy hotel was overall lovely.❤

Pros:

Centrally located hotel in the 11arr.

Chic hotel stylish and clean

Friendly and helpful accommodating staff!

New technology big screen TV USB outlets by bed and TV to charge phone

Nice fun events for guest from mixology classes to running events for active guest!

Spacious room options and unique storage options for baggage

Beautiful balcony in rooms and open terrace on top floor

Great lounge/ working space area for guest, I met some Amazing people in the resturant area. Great spot for solo/business travellers to be social.

Dog friendly (*but for a unfriendly price)

Without sounding like a full lush the drink selection and bartenders were the best!!

Cons:

Wish there was more diversity in their advertising and partnerships

Bed was hard on the back but to be fair not many hotels in Europe have good beds. It was at least a Real bed. I’ve stayed in a lot this was among the better of the hard beds. Do yoga

Limited menu but everything I tried was good

Despite the bed I wanted to stay longer 2 weeks was not enough!

All my bags and a fabulous first meal from The Moxy Resturant

Sunday brunch at the Impérial Place La Brasserie!

Travel

Impérial Palace, Allée de l’Impérial, 74000 Annecy

Sunday brunch at the Impérial Place Brasserie is by reservation only but since I was single, I was able to get a table for one last minute after Church!!! I had the brunch buffet with the Champagne. The website says it’s 60€ but I was charged 69€. The staff was very nice, and professional. It made the difference for sure. Because of the staff I truly enjoyed myself! But as soon as I had the last drop of my very small glass of Champagne and got up to fill up my plate, when I returned to my table the Champagne glass was gone never to return. I thought for that price I would get a whole bottle of Champagne or maybe just some bottomless mimosas!!! I was shooketh!

The food was really good however. I tried to stay longer to see if I could get hungry again and get another round in but I couldn’t get there in time to feel hungry enough for gluttony to set in to validate the price!! I will be back soon I just have to save up!

Here’s some pictures I took and below some information off of the Impérial  Palace website. Rooms at the Impérial Palace hotel start at 200€ to 248€. A big Chunck of my rent for the month 😆

Inside Annecy France Sephora

Annecy, France, France

There’s a bodyguard in Sephora and I’ve never seen anyone that tall in the whole town. I took a quick picture of him and the store as well but it was difficult because I felt he was following me at one point. For the first time in my life I didn’t buy anything this time but I will be back for a makeup spree soon!! They had a variety of foundation shades and brands!

Annecy, France, Apparthôtel Privilodges - Le Royal, France, Hotel Reviews, solo traveling, Travel

Apparthôtel Privilodges – Le Royal

Rue Royale, Annecy

Check out the video of my room, link is below. I stayed at the Apparthôtel for 30 days. I loved the hotel staff. They were very helpful to me in many ways, sometimes just for a laugh or a good morning was awesome traveling solo can sometimes be lonely. But I always had someone to help me at this hotel either for asking where to go for dinner or a where to buy a flat iron. Here are my pros and cons for Apparthôtel. The cons were very few!

PROS:

Centrally locate hotel next to entertainment, train station, shopping, restaurants, cinéma, malls and parks

Dog friendly hotel!

So much space in the studio room for lugguage and the Murphy bed that can be stored for lots of extra room.

Helpful, friendly staff

Clean rooms, and nice cleaning staff

Onsite wash machine and dryer

Optional breakfast

After hours number if you get locked out of your room

Cable tv, international networks

Cons:

The Bed is at least a real bed, but it was hard on my back.

There’s no events for guest to mingle, I met some great guest there it would’ve been fun to have some évents.

More diversity among guest if possible, Annecy it’s is not very diverse per se. Staff was diverse but needs improvement

Here’s a short video of my actual room and space:
