Hotel Garance is great if you are just looking for a no frills hotel. The room had been somewhat recently renovated/updated. There are no extra amenities such as soap in bathroom or complementary water in room. The room was looked clean however when hotel staff would come in and complete their routine cleaning throughout the stay they left behind an unpleasant smell which seemed to be a dirty vacuum smell. Overall, the hotel is a good value and provides a comfortable place to land after long days exploring Paris.

Este hotel está en mantenimiento, no entiendo como fue posible que me brinden algo así. La habitación daba la impresión de sucia, oscura, lúgubre, en fin, llegué y encontré una toalla usada y un pomo con líquido de limpieza en el piso. Muy desagradable la estancia allí, por eso no estuve la segunda noche. Nada recomendable este lugar. Por favor antes de comercializar algo así actualicense de las condiciones reales.

The hotel was located a little bit far away from things that I wanted to see, however, the room was comfortable. I was on the fourth floor and the elevator was broken so it was a lot of steps up to the fourth floor. My room was nice and the staff were extremely nice
The only thing that I could say about the room was that the wallpaper was peeling off at one area, and the shower appeared to have a bit of mold in it. The television and Internet was not up to par.
Otherwise, the room was very comfortable. The bed was clean and comfortable, and the staff was extremely nice.

First off, the hotel is on a noisy main street, the hotel itself is very small & basic. Cleaning is very surface, there're mold lines all around the bathroom ceiling and floor, most towels have stains on them, there's no shampoo or tissues. It's very disappointing for the amount they charge which was 30% more than a 4star hotel in the 9th arrondissement just a week prior.

The hotel shows its age and the rooms are much smaller than the pictures show the bed takes up majority of the space which leaves it difficult to access luggage comfortably. Overall it was okay and the staff were friendly. In our room the bedsheets were stained. You could tell they had been washed but there was a large old blood stain on the mattress protector that could be seen through the sheet. The hotel is very close to the metro which is convenient to get to the main tourist attractions but walking to those areas may take some time. We mainly took the metro to and from the hotel and spent the rest of our time walking.

My room was amazing and very comfortable. Access was easy and staff was friendly.

My owner concern is the elevator is very old and makes a lot of noises. It worked just fine, I had no issues. But for someone with elevator anxiety it would be quite hard to use. In which case of course you can take the stairs. I know these type of buildings in France didn’t have elevators so, maybe that’s why it’s not a great one. I still rated my experience 5 stars, but just letting others know in case it would be a concern for them :)

The staff were very helpful. They gave us milk for our son and access to clean our baby bottles. We accidentally put the no cleaning sign on our door but they gave us fresh towels and emptied bins on request. They stored our buggy downstairs too which was a great help and as space, like in most buildings in Paris it seems, is limited.

The beds, shower and toilet were all excellent for a 3 star hotel. We had breakfast at the hotel each morning too, which I can fully recommend.

The Expedia listing stated that the hotel offers room service and it doesn't. There is a small menu in the room with a short list of drinks but when we inquired, we were told that they don't have them. They had one iron for the entire hotel, and so it took over an hour for them to find it and get it to us. We didn't have hot water the first day of our stay, and had to request that they fix it. The WiFi is a really slow connection, you cannot stream anything on a computer with it. The bathroom was dirty upon arrival. This hotel is in a good location, but that is the only thing that can be recommended about it. Expedia should change their listing to reflect how the hotel really is.

Honestly not sure how this is rated as 4 star.

I was very disappointed with my stay. For starters, the listing advertises English speaking staff but not all speak English. This was one main reason I chose this hotel and it was a problem when I needed to locate a health clinic at night at the front desk staff didn’t speak English.

Second, only one elevator, very slow, and seems like it could break down at any moment.

Third, upon check in I was put in a room with a dirty, moldy bathroom and the shower was missing one entire side of the shower door. Meaning after a 5 minute shower the entire bathroom was soaking wet even though I covered the floor in towels. I slipped and fell getting out. Told front desk staff and they initially apologized but said they didn’t have any other rooms. Not sure how they could put a guest in a faulty shower room from the start? After having Expedia call the hotel for help, they found me another room. But the hotel was fully booked for the week so I assume some other unlucky guest got stuck in that awful room.

Fourth, listing advertises 24/7 lobby and front desk staff however I returned in the night from a health clinic to a pitch black lobby and locked front door to the building. Rang the bell and had to bang and bang to get someone to let me in.

The rooms are tiny, not that clean feeling and the hotel overall needs upgrades.

Can’t speak to the breakfast because I opted out.

Only positive is very kind staff.

Crazy hotel

Our room was on the ground floor behind the reception desk. The room had no a/c working and we couldn't open a window due to the space outside being used as an area for storing equipment and rubbish/cleaning supplies.
We were unable to get any rest in the room due to it being by reception and not soundproofed in any way! We could hear the receptionist blowing their nose through the door.
We also had ants coming in and getting into the bedding and our clothes. The hotel seemed to be building/repairing a room above and to the side of our room as every morning at 7am it was constant drilling/hammering/crashing around, so no rest!! If we booked again it would be towards the top of the building as we could open windows and have a peaceful sleep at night.

I stayed in an attic floor twin room on one of the hottest days in Paris. Air conditioning worked, so that alone made me happy. Other than that furnishings and bathroom are small but adequate. Some of the wall paper is showing wear, but I did not find the black, gray, red color scheme creepy or dated as some other reviewers have indicated. Nice breakfast, efficient staff and WiFi worked just fine even on the top floor. Had a quiet room in the back. Occasional squeak from the elevator, but still a good night's sleep. Mattresses are in need of replacement. They are permanently caved in at the centers. I am not a supersized person by any means, so this was not a case of a French mattress not being built for an American size body.

Clean, friendly, good location

Very nice location on the edge of Latin Quarter, nr to Rue Mouffetard with its small shops and restaurants. Some very scenic public squares nearby with good cafes for breakfast.

Generally a very nice area; less touristy than some other parts of Paris (although I always prefer the left bank to the right anyway). A good mix of Parisians and tourists; you don't feel like you do around e.g. Opera where 90% of the people are slow walking visitors with no idea what they're doing. As someone who vists Paris fairly regularly, this is welcome.

The hotel was clean. The room was small, indeed the bed took up the majority of floor space. On the plus side it had a nice double opening window, a TV, a very good air con system (that was quiet and effective) and the bathroom was very clean. One thing that I noticed was that even on the 4th floor (5th for you Americans) the water pressure was good, and my experience of Parisian hotels is that this often isn't the case.

The breakfast was also decent.

We promptly complained to the front desk and more food miraculously appeared. The next day we went down at 8.30am and the buffet was nicely stocked. Sylvie at the front desk was great. Could not ask for better service including Sylvie personally restocking the buffet. Unless breakfast is included in your room rate, I would recommend going to a bistro.

Five days stay in Paris.

The hotel is convenient to the Metro , a McDonalds, late night kabobs and pizza, nice sidewalk cafes, and good, moderately priced restaurants.

Henry and Sophia as reception managers were fantastic...going out of their way to help guests. Whatever their salaries, the Owner should double them.

A good breakfast though the Hostess is clearly not a morning person.

House cleaning was excellent and the overall facility is clean an pretty well kept.

The toilet in Room 53 was not working properly for my five day visit with little sense at to when it might be professionally repaired. I made it work by using a basement toilette but I doubt anyone else would tolerate such a long needed repair.

Also, the bathroom window leaked at every rain flooding the bathroom floor.
Again, no urgency in it's repair. Frankly, it was annoying in a several day Paris rain pattern.

My marginal scores reflect the problems cited, and all would certainly be higher with facilities repair.

Hotel at Garance Paris

The hotel room is very dark and small. It is not shown exactly what was put in the website.
The breakfast served simple bread and nothing fantastic.
The corridors are not always lid and is always dark and you will never want to stay there again.
The whole entire hotel only have one ironing board and if anyone forget to return then the person who need it is unable to use it.

Relaxed stay in effervescent Paris

We enjoyed our stay very much. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful. The nearby Rue Mouffetard has a large variety of restaurants. The hotel itself is nice (do not be put of by the at this time dilapidated look of the restaurant in front), the rooms spacious, the double glazed windows keep the sound of the city away while you enjoy a good night's rest in the comfortable beds.

Never stay here

Thought was a great deal, but we were wrong. Pros comfy bed, and nice hot water for showers. Cons: the room had ants both nights we were there mainly in bathroom, shower didn't seam sealed, got out seemed lots of water escaped. Baseboards meeting g floor in bathroom needs updating, dirt brown not nice. Peeling ceiling in bathroom as well. The dust in the room was so horrible. I am allergic to dust and had to ask my husband to clean up, the vent above bed the dust was so thick, in bathroom, the cord to hairdryer, the towel rack...also stating on the Expedia print out with confirmation stated the tax of 1.65 euros a person per night, as we checked out we were told 2 euros each a night...this should be corrected on the info from expedia. Also they offer breakfast, was included with our room, but if you need to buy it don't, great pastry place to left of hotel...very disappointed overall.

Hotel in a good location

Sorry to say I had to mark the room comfort as disappointing because the room was actually very comfortable, lovely bed, nicely decorated. The down side was the hotel does not have sound insulation and the occupants of the room above were two young girls who came in late each night and then stamped around until 3.30 am. Thankfully we only had two nights of that as they left on Friday, so we had one night when we got a good night's sleep at least.

Nice hotel in the Latin Quarter

The hotel was a decent price and quite comfortable for our purposes. They were very accommodating when we arrived early - offering to take our bags up to our room when it was ready, leaving us able to wander around and explore without worrying about our bags.

On the fence.

Service was great. Breakfast was good. Location was great close too train station and sites. The room was small, not a lot of storage or room for two peoples luggage or getting dressed in the morning. The shower head was broken told front desk, they knew but didn't fix it. Wifi was terrible. No sign out front identifying hotel. No room safes. Room had two twins instead of king but they slid them together and installed a filler after we complained. Shower was alittle mildew and no wash clothes for shower. No tub.

Great beds and location, bad service from staff

We were lucky enough to get a room on the top floor, which was incredibly cozy. Small but enough for the two of us. The bed and was amazing, slept like babies and didn't hear any noise from the street. Location is great, super close to the Metro station Les Gobelins and the cozy Latin Quarters.

The few complaint we have is first that the the shower had no hot water and the handle was broken, making it more of a hassle than something nice to shower. Also, the receptionist didn't inform us about anything (WiFi password, breakfast time, checkout time, any extras...) and the breakfast staff refused to speak any English..
