Hilton Paris La Defense welcome gift
I wanted to visit the city during this one night stay in Paris so I decided to just leave my things after checking in and take the metro to Arc De Triomphe which is just one stop away by RER A from the hotel. When I came back to the hotel in the evening, I was surprised to receive a welcome gift which consisted of a bottle of Chateau Frontenac Bordeaux, 2 bottles of Evian, a bowl of salad and some desserts. Fantastic! I still haven't used my drink voucher by that time but since I already got more than I expected, I didn't go to the Tangerine Bar anymore.

CONCLUSION
Needing a place to stay in Paris for one night a few weeks ago, I decided to book a room at the Hilton Paris La Defense. The hotel is located a bit outside of the city center although I did not have any problem with that since the nearest subway station is just a few minutes walk away. I was helped by Marie with the check in process which went very well. I told her it was my first stay as a Diamond member and was really excited about staying in their hotel. I initially asked for a room with a view of the Grande Arche but since there was none available, I was given a room facing the Christmas market which was a nice view as well. The surprise amenity gift I got when I came back to the hotel was really appreciated. I also enjoyed the food on the breakfast buffet which offered an extensive choice and tasted great. I don't travel to Paris that often but when I get the chance again, this will definitely be one of my choices. To all the staff of Hilton Paris La Defense who made my one night stay in Paris so memorable, Merci Beaucoup!
