Oh, yes, that´s a really cheap hotel with a great sight on one of the most famous buildings in the world. It´s great, isn´t it? Ok, it´s a little bit cold in winter, and it´s a little bit too loud during the day, but except this, it´s just perfect! Thanks a lot to Google Maps for finding this
Google Maps bug: Hotel under the Eiffel Tower!
Everyone surfing online must have used at one moment or another Google Maps, in order to find out where you have to go! For a lot of us, Google Maps has become an essential and useful tool. You can see where you have to go, your itinerary, the time it will take you to get there. You can also find out what are the points of interest next to your holiday hotel, or simply walk through the streets using the cool street view feature.
For hotel chains, Google maps has also become an essential tool. If your hotel is incorrectly situated, you may loose a large number of visitors. Unfortunately for hotel managers, visitors tend to rely too much on Google Maps, and dont always check that the information provided by Google is valid.
Here is a brilliant example of the power of Google Maps. If you want a wonderful cheap hotel in Paris, why not stay under the eiffel tower! Yes, this is true, Google Maps does show a hotel under the eiffel tower! Just type “formule1 tour eiffel” under the french google maps and you will find the hotel! Actually if you go on the street view, it seems the hotel is actually the Eiffel Tower!

Wow, that’s kinda cool to stay in the Eiffel tower! 
I wonder if anyone has been there and knows if this hotel really exists (and where…). I’m using Google maps all the time and never had a bug, but I’m sure there’s a lot of weird stuff going on, it’s certainly not possible to show each and every place correctly. For this hotel it may be great marketing, though…
