Horrible

We got here and it was more of a hostel experience rather than hotel which is expressed on the site. Once we got into our room our towels were dirty and full of makeup. We opened our curtains to watch the river, left to go to dinner and our curtains were moved. Both front and curtain, have 15 min of talking to front desk about this and being gas lit. Would not recommend.

Unexpected Surprise

First time at this location. Everything is very typical, thoughtful Citizen M. The modernization, the great furniture, the good breakfast, etc. BUT the swan song of this hotel is the gym. Best hotel gym I've been to in a long time, and it was an unexpected surprise.

I enjoyed the atmosphere and decor. The breakfast was lovely and the staff matched perfectly. The room was small but comfy. I appreciated being in 10-15 min walking distance from attractions and shopping 🛍️. Great experience!
