2 Qs: 1) Would you recommend Hotel Walt? 2) Smoking rooms...

We%26#39;re contemplating at Hotel Walt when we visit Paris this summer. Unfortunately, I believe the only non-smoking rooms available are on the lower floor.

I was wondering whether people recommend Hotel Walt and more generally, if smoking rooms are generally okay for non-smokers in Europe. We are not overly sensitive, but stale smoke is not an appealling room scent.

Thanks!

HOtel le walt is an excellent hotel in the 7th. It%26#39;s very well decorated, clean, good service, etc.

As far as the smoking situation, that is a crap shoot. If the smoking rooms are being used and used and used as smoking rooms, especially before you arrive, then you might have to deal w/ the smoke smell. If fewer people are smoking there, you won%26#39;t. IT%26#39;s not really something that can be predicted.

Good hotel, though.

Take some febreze fabric refresher and the febreze air effects air freshener.

We arrived at the Le Walt this morning. We are on the 5th floor (of only 6) and there is no smell of smoke at all. Plus, all three large windows open if you are in need of fresh air. Hope this helps.

Thank you everyone! It sounds like a great option and taking febreze is a good tip I never would have thought of.

How is the area? I have heard it is quite residential, would it be a good bet for someone new to Paris?

Also, Stace3 I would love to hear how your experience is.

Thanks again.
