The hotel is located on a street corner in a six-story Haussmannian building with white shutters and a decorative iron balcony rail. Inside, the light-filled lobby features velvety chairs and curtains framing large windows. It’s not uncommon to find free snacks like pastries and pretzels in the lobby. The glass elevator at the hotel offers outside views, and the breakfast buffet is served in a classic dining hall with wooden tables and wood-paneled walls, but no windows except for a skylight. 

Hotel Aida Opera is located in a busy area with lots of shops, cafes, and restaurants nearby. It’s a trafficked area by both pedestrians and drivers. The hotel is near the famous cabaret, Folies Bergères, but many of the top sights will require a commute. There are several metro stations nearby that are within a six-minute walk and give easy access to many attractions such as the Louvre Museum (20 minutes away), Sacré Coeur Basilica (30 minutes), and the Eiffel Tower (35 minutes).

The rooms at Hotel Aida Opera are fairly spacious compared to those at other hotels in the area. Rooms come in a variety of sizes, including singles, doubles, triples, and quadruples, which makes this hotel a popular choice with families. Bathrooms are small and have either shower/tub combinations or walk-in showers, some with rainfall showerheads. All rooms have flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, coffee/tea facilities, and free Wi-Fi. 

The hotel offers a breakfast buffet (for an additional fee, or included in some room rates) that includes kosher items, but no hot food. There’s a small fitness room with a treadmill, stationary bike, elliptical machine, and resistance machines, and a business center is available with two computers. The hotel also has two meeting rooms. Reception is open 24/7 and Wi-Fi is free throughout.
