  I just booked the Kimpton for September if my trip still goes ahead. Thanks for the heads up

    I’ve booked for December – hopefully Christmas markets will be back on this year!

      Me too. Far enough away it might work but as you can cancel if you need to nothing to loose and I’m having withdrawal with no holiday planning. Are their Christmas markets good. Never been that time of year.

        I find Christmas markets bad in Paris.

        Anne Hidalgo too was not happy about them, finding them too much low quality regarding products sold.

        I believe she has obtained the right to stop them from the “parliament” of Paris.
        So I am not sure there will be there in the future.

        Of course there are other activities to do in Paris or shops o visit.

        I love Paris in Dec.! For one thing, there are half a dozen markets to choose from. The decorations around G. Lafayette are fabulous (as is the rooftop view, of course).
        We’ve stayed at the HIlton Opera the last couple of times – v. pleased. Beautiful building, nice lounge & location. Would def. like to try the Kimpton (and the IC, come to that!):

  Is it allowed to book IHG reward nights from my account for other people? Want to book a night in Paris for my parents if possible (I won’t be with them).

  • Genghis says:

    Yes. If you call them up they will put your parents’ names on the booking.

      Will they be entitled to any status benefits though (welcome drinks, room upgrades etc)?

  • Scott says:

    28 Jan28 January 09:57

    Yes they will as long as you let them know in advance. Done it a few times for my parents at various IHG properties without any issues.

  Kimpton booked for four nights late July. Might come to nothing, but I have some Eurostar vouchers to use, too and a window of opportunity.

  I’ve booked for the last weekend in August, which is just within the stay by date of one of my free nights that would have expired in July 2019. Agree it might come to nothing. But currently have no use for the two free nights, so might as well book something with it!

  Rob recommended a Hyatt hotel at Budapest a while back, that booking has been pushed back 3/4 times already!

  Also, have flights booked for Asia in May from the Virgin redemption sale last year. That is looking increasingly unlikely too.

    I don’t recommend Paris in August. Many restaurants closed and the place has a certain whiff in the air.

    • Reney says:

      When would you recommend it?

      • Genghis says:

        Spring or Autumn. Enjoy. Don’t miss the Mont Blanc from Angelina.

  “The chain has some excellent hotels, and I genuinely find Park Hyatt to be the best luxury chain which is run by one of the multi-brand groups.”

  But what about Raffles? 😉
