Hôtel Bourg Tibourg Review

Scented candles and subdued lighting announce designer-du-jour Jacques Garcia's mix of harem-like romance and Gothic contemplation. Royal-blue paint and red velvet line the claustrophobic halls, and Byzantine alcoves hold mosaic-tile tubs. Rooms are barely bigger than the beds, and every inch has been upholstered, tasseled, and draped in a cacophony of stripes, florals, and medieval motifs. A pocket garden has room for three tables, leafy plants, and a swath of stars above. Free Wi-Fi, iPad and DVD loan service, and B&O flat screen TV add to creature comforts.

    Beautiful hotel, beautiful location

    Love this place. The rooms are small but that is common. Gio was extremely friendly and helpful. Can't wait to come back.

    Perfect, under certain circumstances

    We just spent a night at the Hotel Bourg-Tibourg and loved it. It is, however, not for every traveler. On the plus side: the neighborhood is charming and central but not noisy, the bed was large and comfortable (and NOT one of those wretched 2 twins pushed together to be a pseudo-king!), the bathroom was plush and well-appointed, the breakfast was superb, the room and hotel in general were lovely, and the service was friendly. On the negative side: the rooms are too small for anyone with more than one small suitcase, our tub was tucked into a nook so the shower was hand-held, and the rooms are not designed for a traveler who needs a desk -- basically, there's a bed and a TV and that's it. I believe that the previous reviewer with a lighting problem may not have realized that the non-mood light is on a complicated, European dimmer -- took me a while to figure out, but when I did, I had the opportunity to make the room dazzlingly bright -- no problem. In any event, the hotel was perfect for our needs -- pleasure travelers with only a small suitcase.
