7.9(1495)2/10 Shocking Discrimination at Breakfast – Avoid if You’re Asian
Shocking Discrimination at Breakfast – Avoid if You’re Asian
I am appalled by the blatant discrimination based on my skin color at Crowne Plaza Paris during breakfast on February 12, 2025, at 8:30 AM. As an IHG Diamond Elite member, I expected fair treatment, but instead, I witnessed a problematic and racist seating system that placed Asian guests in a separate, inferior section while white guests enjoyed a better dining area.
What Happened?
Upon arrival, I provided my room number (338). The staff checked a list that included membership status, then deliberately escorted me and my friend (a white Finnish woman) to an area where only Asian guests were seated.
When I requested the table in the nicer area (the same table that we sat at for the past two days), I was told, “That table is reserved. Someone came to reserve it yesterday.” (A lie). I then asked, "Isn't breakfast buffet style? How can someone reserve a table?" The waitress then said, "Yeah, I'm sorry but this has been reserved. If you want this table, you have to come here and tell us in advance." (Another blatant lie).
However, when my white friend returned with her food, a staff member immediately stopped her and said, “I can give you an even nicer table”—the same table I was just denied. Clearly, they did not believe she was with me, and she was offered better treatment simply because of her race.
Management’s response was even Worse.
After breakfast, I escalated the issue to the restaurant manager, who:
• Refused to acknowledge the problem.
• Ignored me (who is the one raising the concern). And 80% of the time spoke at my white friend.
• Justified the discrimination by saying, “We usually seat Chinese groups separately because they are loud and may disturb other guests.”, and "My staff may have just assumed you come with a big group of Chinese"
• Dismissed my complaint by claiming, “Our employees are people of color, so discrimination is impossible.”
This is not an isolated incident. I see a denial of what had happened to me and an attempt to gaslight me by bringing up irrelevant things, like "oh they proabbly just thought you are part of the big group". The problem:
• White guests were freely seated in the premium section—no reservation needed.
• Asian guests (even Diamond Elite members) were placed in a separate, crowded section.
• Management openly exhibited stereotyping of Chinese guests.
• My complaint was only taken seriously when my white friend spoke up.
This was one of the most humiliating experiences I’ve ever had at a hotel. If you are Asian, think twice before staying at Crowne Plaza Paris—I refuse to support a hotel that practices discrimination based on how people look. I will be escalating this complaint to IHG Corporate, French anti-discrimination authorities, and international media.
Discrimination thrives in silence. But I will speak up.

10/10 Excellent Stay
We were greeted with a warm smile by Erika at check in. We were able to get into our room early, which was much appreciated after a long, overnight flight. We booked the hotel for four nights using points and were given an upgrade based on my husband's status from the IHG credit card. We were checked into an executive King room, which as spacious. We had requested a quiet room and faced the lovely courtyard.
The hotel staff was excellent. We interacted with staff at the front desk and bar area. The room was very clean. The mattress is very hard, which my husband loved. I found it a bit difficult to sleep on.
There was one protest at the Republique during our stay. We could not hear it from our room. It seemed very peaceful and well-organized. We only knew about it because we headed out to dinner one evening. By the time we returned several hours later, the protest had ended.
The location is perfect. We are right next to the Metro. We each purchased a Nagivo card and ten rides, and used it to travel to all of our destinations. Behind hotel, the Canal St. Martin is a few blocks behind the hotel. There are a number of restaurants and stores near the hotel, but do get out and explore the neighborhoods.
We would highly recommend this hotel for an excellent stay in Paris.

10/10 An effortless stay in an ideal hotel in Paris.
We stayed at the Crown Plaza, Place de la Republique, Paris for 7 days. We were given the choice of a quiet room or a noisy one. We chose the latter. It was great to sit people watching, the window wide open on to the square, a drink in hand. The breakfasts were fabulous, the staff very attentive and helpful and any problems addressed promptly. It was an excellent experience and thanks are necessary to the management team and hotel for making our stay special. The hotel is very central and ideal for getting about. We hope to return and would recommend this hotel to everyone who wants an effortless stay in Paris. Thankyou.

8/10 A great stay in Paris
We recently stayed here for several days as a part of our time in Paris. The hotel is not in the center of the city near the big monuments, but for us, this is a plus as it's a little less crazy. That being said, it is literally right next to a metro station, and there are tons of restaurants and bakeries right around the hotel. Additionally, there is a restaurant in hotel and a nice breakfast buffet (not included in room price). The room was spacious for a European room and was modern. Housekeeping did a great job each day. The staff all spoke English and were helpful. We really enjoyed staying here.

Excellent breakfast, good location, clean, comfortable beds, friendly and smily staff, specially very helpfull concierge with my need to name M. Olivier with his help in providing information and more than that being personally involved in smootly assisting from distance for solution in a trouble (not related to the hotel) that we had faced.

Fantastic hotel - we needed twin beds as I was travelling with my daughter and had nice double bed each and a really good sized room for a central Paris hotel. Breakfast was busy but efficient and tasty. Great location for exploring Paris from.

This hotel was great and did exactly what it said on the tin! It’s in great area of the city with loads of bars and restaurants around the local area. Travel is simple as the metro is literally outside the door. Staff were lovely, room was comfortable and we had no issues.

Everything was great. Especially welcoming and reserved table for breakfast. However more bottle of waters would be in the room cause we were 4. (2x50cl is not enough)
