Does anyone have a good recommendation for an Accor hotel in Paris with regards to good service for plats/diamond or just general good everything? I doubt I will be renewing as a diamond again seeing how limited the benefits are above plat, so I just want to maximise it while I have it this year.
I have stayed at Mercure Eiffel and Pullman Eiffel as a plat. Neither had lounge facility and neither made any real fuss with regards to the status - Pullman made me join the loung queue for check-in and gave me the evil eye when I asked if there is a priority queue for plats... That really left a bad taste. I don't ask for much but if they advertise priority check-in for high levels, then it is clearly the most useful when the queue is long. And yet the evil eye.
A cursory search on the ALL website suggests basically no hotel in Europe has a plat/diamond lounge, it would seem.... but I know not all lounges are listed on the ALL website.
So then I was just wondering if anyone has stayed at anything Accor in Paris, or Bordeaux or Naples that's worth mentioning in terms of good service and/or good facilities? Anyone stayed at SO Paris? Or one of the Sofitels?
Personally I am a huge fan of Sofitel Darling Harbour for plats and use it as a benchmark. But I think that might be setting the bar too high for European Accor hotels........ the whole status thing seems to be a very Asian thing... Asian airlines, Asian hotels, etc...
