Hotel Joyce Parijs

Pros: Daily free snacks & beverages in the foyer are a real bonus.

Pros: The hotel exceeded the expectations set by the previous positive reviews and the attractive pictures. although everything was wonderful, what was particularly impressive was the level of service. i believe it was equivalent to what one would expect on the club level of a 4 or 5 star hotel. particularly outstanding at the front desk were ahmed and elise. all of the rest of the staff, including leo and pascal, were excellent too. just a few examples of this level of attention-- ahmed helped arrange several reservations for one evening, even getting a spot in one of the most difficult to book restaurants. he then printed out maps for each location explained how to arrive there and made additional recommendations regarding whether to take metro or taxi. all of this was done with a great attitude and tremendous patience. elise too made a special effort to arrange everything. on our first evening when i mentioned i was not sure about the location of our room because of possible noise, elise offered right away to change it the following day if i was not happy (they were fully booked that evening). she was right and noise was not an issue, but i appreciated that immediate response to resolve the situation. throughout my stay, she provided helpful information. for wake up calls, not only would there be an automated call, but also a personal follow up call to make sure that i was awake. everyone knew my name at the hotel, even though i only stayed three nights. the front desk staff was always smiling and ready help.
breakfast was good and it was great to have the free snacks and drinks available throughout the day. the decor is really thoughtful and unique. it is a lovely boutique hotel. the rooms and bathroom were impeccably clean upon arrival and each day.

Pros: Staff were wonderful, really helpful. liked my room a lot. great stay. liked the continuous tea and coffee available.
Cons: My bedroom door was hard to open. taxis took a long time! would have liked tea and coffee facilities in my room.

Pros: The room and bathroom were immaculately clean
