    It's expensive

    The hotel is very nice, staff is nice. The room at the top had a comfortable large bed. The breakfast had a great variety of cheese and fruit 🌞

    As above; in an ideal world Paris hotels would have larger rooms.....for the €150-180 budget I have.

    The staff were charming but what really impressed me was the decoration and cleanliness. Unless you pay a lot of money, most Paris hotel rooms are quite small. My room was indeed small but so well appointed, everything you get in a larger room and an outstanding en-suite bathroom.

    Room was small for 3 people. Shower temperature is like roulette; there is no thermostatic valve so you have to be patient to get a reasonable temperature and hope no one else close by uses water (children need to be careful not to burn themselves). The coffee at breakfast was terrible (sorry).

    The location is excellent. Staff are excellent. Room is clean. Decor is nice. Good choice of fruit in the breakfast buffet. Close to train station. Lots of restaurants close by.

    Some rooms are tiny, however we paid a little more so we knew what we were going to get. The building is old so the lift was also a little scary at times.

    The location of this hotel was perfect. Saint Germain shopping district was a short walk away with nice cafes and restaurants nearby. Also very close to the metro which is handy! We had a super cute room with a balcony that overlooked the street. Staff were incredibly friendly and accomodating.

    3 stars, not 4

    • Standard Double Room
    • Stayed 4 nights

    In my double room with a double bed, for some reason there was an extra single bed, which took up a lot of space, so the room was very cramped, a very small desk that was impossible to work at, a very small and cramped bathroom. The room has poor sound insulation - you can hear the sounds of neighbors and noise from the street. There was a large gap under the main door, from where the breeze from the corridor came in and all the smells from the corridor entered the room. When the maids used air fresheners in the corridor, it was all in the room. Conclusion - if you want peace in this hotel, then I will disappoint you.

    Great location, friendly and helpful staff, delicious breakfast.

    The first room we got was not acceptable because it required using stairs to get to the elevators. But we were assigned another room and it was fine.

    Breakfast was excellent. A lot of choice.

    Out of the 3 hotels we stayed in Paris for this trip, 3-5 days each, your hotel was the best!

    The breakfast could be a bit more fresh but the basic American carafe sized coffee for a family of 3 was very much appreciated but the sliced fruit salad was a bit old/tired/tasted sour when it was summer and had an abundance of fruits on the street/market. The OJ could have been tastier. But over all, a nice venue/selections!

    The hotel was so cute, met our expectation of a French ambiance, old, renovated and well maintained! Staff was friendly and welcoming.

    The telephone in the room did not display the number to dial to reach reception - to ask them to stop painting my bedroom door and the outer door when I was sick in bed recovering from food poisoning (not the hotel food!) - but that was an unpredictable event and they were very apologetic afterwards.

    Very friendly staff on the front desk, beautiful rooms, great breakfast selection, good location for the Sorbonne University and the Seine/Notre Dame vicinity.
