Novotel Paris Centre Bercy
The room was small, but overall everything else was good. However, I had one concern during checkout: the front desk asked if two people from our room had eaten lunch at the hotel and were about to charge us for it, which we hadn’t. While they corrected the issue (didn't charge), they did not apologize ...
