Hotel Ampère offers a quiet retreat in Paris with easy access to public transportation and friendly, helpful staff. Overall, it’s a comfortable stay, but a few things held it back from being great — the decor feels a bit dated, bar service was inconsistent in terms of availability, and basic amenities like a good coffee machine and ice weren’t readily available. We were also surprised by a city tax charge at checkout that hadn’t been clearly communicated. A solid option, but there’s room for improvement.
