Book the Comtesse Eiffel Tower Room or higher if you want the straight-on view — lower category Baronne and Marquise rooms face the side of the tower

Why It Matters

One of a very small number of Paris hotels where literally every room has an Eiffel Tower view — front or side. The building's V-shape is the whole trick. The ground-floor La Comtesse Café is open to the public and serves what the hotel claims is one of Paris's best hot chocolates, served in a pot, as it was in the 18th century.

Hotel La Comtesse is a 40-room, 4-star boutique hotel in Paris's 7th arrondissement, occupying the corner wedge of a classic Haussmannian building. The whole concept revolves around one thing: every single room has a view of the Eiffel Tower. Formerly the Hotel Splendid, it reopened in summer 2016 after a €4 million renovation that turned the interiors into a love letter to 18th-century literary salons — think Louis XVI-style antiques, ceiling murals, charcoal gray walls, and splashes of red and gold. The V-shaped building means every guest looks toward the tower, though some views require a neck stretch from the side-facing rooms.

Where You'll Stay

7 room types available

Classic Baronne Room
Standard Double

Classic Baronne Room

The entry-level category at La Comtesse. Decorated in pistachio green or sky blue tones, these compact rooms are bright and quiet with Eiffel Tower side views. At 14–16 sqm they're on the smaller side — honest Paris boutique-hotel scale. Some rooms can request a balcony for a supplement. Baronne rooms can be connected to an adjacent Marquise room for extra space. Shower only (no bathtub).

Comtesse Eiffel Tower Room
Deluxe Double

Comtesse Eiffel Tower Room

The first category with a direct front-on view of the Eiffel Tower. At 21–22 sqm, these mandarin-toned rooms are bright and well-proportioned. The signature feature: you can admire the iron lady while lying in bed without sitting up. Coffee machine, bathrobes, and slippers are standard. No balcony at this level — that moves up to the Comtesse with Balcony.

Deluxe Double with Balcony

Comtesse Room with Balcony

Same front-facing Eiffel Tower view as the Comtesse Eiffel Tower Room, but with the added bonus of a private balcony. Step outside with a coffee and watch the tower from your own outdoor perch. A TripAdvisor reviewer specifically singled out sipping coffee on this balcony during golden hour as a highlight of their stay.

These rooms come with bathrobes, slippers, and a coffee machine — touches absent in the lower categories. Some rooms have balconies. A third person can be accommodated in select rooms on request for a supplement.
