The Villa Royale may not be acceptable to everyone. Probably because of the proximity of the Moulin Rouge the decor has lots of maroon walls, tissue covered, and some gold, and green. But the furniture is dated, lots os scratches. The room has a good size, the same for the bathroom, but bathtub. You can improvise a shower head but lots of water will spill in the floor. Continental breakfast served in the room; very acceptable. AC incipient, if it works at all. The elevator wall is in glass, and as you go up, or down, you will watch the back wall painted in Toulose Lautrec style. I enjoyed it. But at the same time some noises may make people a little apprehensive. On each floor, maroon velvet banners display the names of the room. All famous artistic people: Brigitte Bardot, Catherine Deneuve.. Convenient location at less than five minutes to the subway station on Place Pigalle. Lots of restaurants, particularly the Bouillon of Pigalle, one of the best deals in that expensive city. Again, I believe because the proximity to the Moulin Rouge, many sex shops along the beautiful Boulevard Clichy. Read, reflect, and decide..
