Hôtel Costes

Worst venue in Paris. I am a doctor from NYC and the staff as 100% Racist. They will not give you seating and entry if they choose. DO NOT GO HERE! I was visiting Paris and went to dine here, after spending 1000$ they said you have to leave, you cannot go bar as it is full. Even though is was pretty empty.

It's not the Costes I used to go to back in the 2010's, back then it was snobby enough but I never had a problem - Nov. 2024 It has become SCARY to even get into the property because of the rude and aggressive staff, don't really care about the expansion, whoever went there in the early 2000's was lucky (those were the days) - never again

An underwhelming entrance to an apparent 5 star hotel. To the left is a table of hotel merch that you can buy and to the right are tables with what look like a bunch of 20 year olds in kookai who are the reception. I had to approach the bar for service as the arrogant waitress,in yet another cheap Lycra outfit, kept flicking her hair with her tray in front of her. I asked if they had a signature Negroni, no but I have my own I make sure. The worst Negroni I’ve ever had, tasted like a bushfire, and to add insult to injury it was £40…yes £40 f’n euro for petrol. Horrible he hadn’t shaken it enough it wasn’t smooth and it was awful. The vermouth was cheap and awful. Don’t disappoint yourself entering this place. It’s awful. My friend who recommended here as she’d heard from a friend will be throat punched if she recommends another place, it was that bad.

I have traveled all over the worldI have been fortunate to stay at many beautiful hotels in Paris all five star. Hotel Costes missed on every level. Horrific service rude and unprofessional, snobby but without a right to be. Restaurant and bar pretentious and very overrated filled with wannabe people, sorry trying too hard to be hip... embarrassing and sad. With so many fabulous chic hotels in the same arrondisement this one is a hard no! Take it off your list.

I don’t even know where to start with this place. I felt like I was on another planet. The staff were incredibly rude. If you’re not into pretentiousness this is the not the place for you. After spending €150 on a bottle they wouldn’t even serve us table water. The staff seemed uninterested and very rude. Wouldn’t recommend this to anyone!

I was refused access to the bar and restaurant at off peak time although I have been there previously - without any issue, including during fashion weeks. Hotel receptionist seemed to have her own profiling technique. She mentioned that the hotel is limited to hotel guests however when I called the restaurant for a booking they: 1- confirmed that the restaurant was open to anyone 2- they had tables available this evening. The venue was relatively empty and I have been there multiple times previously, with no issues getting a table. This experience was humiliating. Shame as I used to love this place. I suppose my long black coat or black hat may have been an issue… would there be some form of antisemitism?
