Le déjeuner, bien que bon au goût, est très de base. Aucun fruit et le jus d’orange n’a pas été servi de manière constante.

Faire attention à la vue des chambre qui est dépeinte sur le site web, toutes les chambres n’ont pas une vue similaire!! Dans mon cas, j’avais une vue imprenable sur le bâtiment voisin!!

Les gens de l’hôtel ont été gentils et avenants.

Je recommande pour l’emplacement si vous désirez parcourir Paris à pieds, c’est parfait!

The owner, Messr Roland Heninger, and his staff were kind, charming, and did everything to make my stay enjoyable. The location is perfect: 5 minutes walk from train from airport, metro, Notre Dame, La Sorbonne. I do not know what prompted negative reviews in past, but the management is clearly trying its best for its guests. There is construction on back/north side of building, which was noisy 1st day of arrival, so request room facing the front.

We had a wonderful stay at this historic hotel. The staff were extremely helpful and courteous. Our room and shared shower were very clean. We stayed four nights and enjoyed the opportunity to wash a load of laundry while we rested before our dinner reservations nearby. The location was absolutely the best!

The property owner/manager who is a male comes on a little strong and seems rude but that just may be the way he talks and comes across. A female employee was trying to help me and he started talking to her what seemed very rude to her and she was just helping me. Then when he talked to me I thought he was being rude but I don’t think he has the customer service we are accustomed to in America or for example Japan who are so delicate when speaking and gracious when communicating. Everything was good about the hotel and the room. Only hard part is no elevator and climbing 3 floors tiny steps. I don’t know how older people do it because you could go rolling down. But location was excellent, room was clean, private bathroom was clean, quiet neighborhood, super close from the tootos hop on hop off bus stop, close to metro and so many bakeries and restaurants. I visited a very popular one called Isabelle and there was a huge line to buy croissants and pastries. The exterior of the hotel needs plants hanging from the windows like the hotel next door and more love poured into the dining room and kitchen.

El Hotel está muy bien ubicado muy cerca de lugares emblemáticos ( a unos 15 minutos andando del Museo de Louvre). Es mas bien un Hostal no un Hotel, entrada angosta, sin escaleras, propiedad familiar. Limpio pero ojo sin escaleras, las habitaciones tienen algunas baños privado y en los pasillos hay un baño compartido para las habitaciones que no tienen baño. Es una opción barata es una ciudad como Paris tan cara. El servicio es bueno. Hostal de paso para 1 o 2 días y con presupuesto ajustado.

The only thing to be aware of is that the hotel only has a set of steep stairs. If you get put on the top floor, like I did, you'll have to hike a bit to get to your room. But it's only an issue if you're affected by that kind of thing. Overall, really enjoyed my stay. I would come back.

Not a hotel, but price as hotel

Our room was on the 5th floor, just stairs and no lift. Also, no bathroom in the room!... I noticed it when I arrived, it was written in small letters in my booking so I didn't want to complain, it wasn't worth it... however when you book a HOTEL, you don't even expect a room with no bathroom... this should have been alerted somehow... it was super disappointing, I felt somehow deceived. Also, the breakfast was not good at all...
In general, we paid for a hotel, but it was not it, it was more close to a hostel or a residential.

The only good thing about it was the young managers, and some of the staff, really friendly and helpful, however... it was super disappointing

Excellent location in the Latin Quarter.

I was only there overnight, but I would definitely recommend it to travelers for overnight or longer. It is a small, family-owned hotel, ideally located, within walking distance of the Cluny Museum (de Moyen Age), Sorbonne, Notre Dame, Sainte Chapelle, Luxembourg gardens and near a couple of METRO stops that will take you anywhere in Paris.

I've been in that area before for longer stays, but this was a pleasant, charming change of pace. They still have rooms with shared baths, but a room with private bath is still very reasonable. The surprise was that guests may use their kitchen facilities (I did) and their laundry (I didn't, but saw someone who was). The staff was pleasant and attentive to my needs.

Convenient to metro and Notre Dame

We knew the hotel had no elevator when we booked it, but we were hoping for the best. We did not get it. If carrying your luggage up four or five flights of spiral stairs will be a problem for you look elsewhere. On our first night, there were obvious signs on construction in progress inside our room (wires sticking out of the wall, the heating unit leaned up against a wall, but not connected); the room was cold. By the second night, the heating unit had been installed but there was no instructions on how to adjust it, so the room was so hot that we had to open a window. The bathroom has been updated and had a nice shower and heat in the floor. The breakfast was generous and delicious.

Good budget hotel, great location in Latin Quarter

I recommend this hotel to any budget traveler with simple needs. The excellent location makes this a top choice, as it's worth a lot to be able to walk to major sites like Notre Dame, the Cluny, and the Seine. Within a few blocks there is a large tourist area with shops and restaurants, as well as busses, metro stops, and a local open air market. It was like a hybrid hotel & hostel: guests didn't really interact, but the staff were more helpful than typical hotel managers; rooms were tiny, and several floors had shared bathroom and shower; breakfast was included, & guests were allowed to do laundry for free. A bulletin board had advice for tourists: how to reach sites using public transportation; what days museums were closed, and when they were free; recommended restaurants. There was free wifi and one wired internet computer for guests. Note: a typical French breakfast is croissant, bread, and jam--expect this at Hotel Marignan and everywhere else in France!

We had problems with our wifi and suggested he try to reset the router. He insisted that there were no problems and that it was our device. We all had cell phones two of us had Kindles and I had a PC. NONE of us could connect. Then he contradicted himself by saying that there was a man there fixing the internet.

We stayed at this hotel in late sept mainly due to its location and we were quite happy with it. This is actually a classic bread and breakfast though the name is hotel. The location is unbeatable. its within 5 mins walk from St. Michel underground train station, 8 mins from Notre Dame church, 8 mins from Saine river bank.The hotel has no lift but thats not surprising given its a B&B. We stayed at the ground floor luckily. Breakfast was very basic - juice, croissant and bread with coffee/tea/choco. Staff could have been friendlier though. Extremely curt and terse. The sense of traditional welcoming hospitality was not felt - one could say these guys are no nonsense B&B owners. As a said at the beginning, the main thing is the location for this hotel.

Two desk clerks were native English speakers. Convenient to public transport, and can walk to dozens of restaurants. 10 minute walk to Notre Dame. It is a one star hotel, though. Given the length of our stay, we wished we had chosen a more stars hotel. Next time, we will stay here for half our stay, then upgrade for the last few nights.

Good Value

We enjoyed our stay at the Marignan. All needs that are important are met.

no real knowledge as they move us to another hotel

we arrived in Paris for our one and only day (don't ask why we planned so poorly) and when we got to this hotel, the man greeted us and started speaking very quickly before we could even tell him our name! He explained there had been a mistake and he was overbooked--but the good news was that he found us a different hotel about 3/4 miles away. The good news is that worked out and we stayed there--a pleasant quaint hotel called the Gay Lussac--not very fancy but it got the job done. We have NO idea what the rooms were like at the hotel Marignan because we only saw the entrance area. But we found the gentlemen was very abrupt and arrogant--he did help us but his personality was so off putting we were actually happy we got to stay somewhere else!

My rating of the rooms cleanliness is bogus because we never saw it--i just rated it so I could submit this form!

Great value

The hotel was perfectly located for what I wanted and it was a great value. I had a shared bathroom and shower but there was never any wait. Staff seemed welcoming and helpful.

Owner/operator had construction going on across the street as well as construction going on inside his establishment. We had wall panels and removed light fixtures in our room, panels removed fixtures stayed. We started the day with construction workers moving wall panels, etc. from the breakfast room. Rooms were cleaned satisfactorily but the carpet in the hotel was filthy. Telephones in the rooms won't allow you to call long distance, owner was extremely short-tempered, bordered on being rude. Location great but cannot recommend hotel

Great priced hotel

I read a few negative reviews on this hotel and went slightly nervous , however its a smashing little hotel great price ideal location and very helpful staff , I stayed in the single room and found for the price it was just the right size , the shared bathroom and toilets were always clean and my towels were changed on a daily basis. my friend stayed in the double room and was very impressed by the hotel as well , the breakfast is free and very basic but its a good start to the day , I would highly recommend this hotel.

Lovely neighborhood, friendly staff.

Really great location in the 5th arrondissement, easily walkable to three metro stops and serviced by a number of buses on St. Michel and St. Germain. I booked a single room, with a shared shower and WC, which was on the 5th floor. No elevator, but it was good exercise taking the stairs up every day! All very clean. Room itself was spacious, shower room was tiny. My room was right next to the shared bathroom, so I could often hear the whirring of the fan or water running. The staff were all very friendly. Not all of them speak English, though the manager speaks English and German as well as French. He recommended attractions and the best value transport tickets. I would highly recommend this place, but if you're in a single room, be prepared to climb the stairs!
