We enjoyed our stay! The location is very quiet and walking distance to many places and easy metro to everywhere else. The staff were very nice and helpful. Nice toiletries and extra large towels. We had the room that sleeps 4 for the three of us which was a very nice size The room itself was rather plain and could use some update and decorating.

Loved our hotel! The personnel was friendly and so helpful with our many enquiries about the metro, taxis, the area, restaurants etc…
The hotel is clean, the beds are comfortable. In the lobby we enjoyed tea, coffee, lemon water and candies. They gave us a small balcony as requested and the hotel has an elevator. There are many cafes and restaurants around. Hopefully when we go back the construction in front will be completed ( replacing water pipes)

The room and bathroom was much bigger than I expected and it was air conditioned!
Bed was very comfortable. The elevator was tiny and would only hold one suitcase and one person very tightly but that was not a surprise in Europe. We ere in a perfect location to walk to many sights and I felt safe walking around the streets late into the evening, because Paris never sleeps! It was not a luxurious hotel but staff was nice and it was clean and comfortable. I would stay there again, mainly for the location

We stayed at this hotel for 4 nights. Room was ready for us when we got there from the airport before check- in time . Staff was pleasant and welcoming. Room was good size and clean, bed very comfortable, coffee maker and kettle in place. Bathroom was adequate, the shower rather small, but we never ran out of hot water. The only thing that I did not like was the rosemary scent of hand soap, it lingered on my hands, not my favorite...
My husband and I were impressed with breakfast. We loved the choices of food, hot and cold, everything was fresh and delicious. Great coffee station near reception for those wanting to relax in the lobby.
The hotel is old, some upgrades were already made, but it retained its character. We chose it because it was close to Notre-Dame cathedral, Louvre museum and metro stations. Lots of great restaurants nearby.

Our four-person room was much bigger than I expected for a hotel room in Europe, and it was clean. We were pleasantly surprised that there was a mini fridge stocked with water, and the room was laid out well. My teenagers loved having a tiny balcony to sit near to watch the world go by. The front desk clerk was very welcoming and helpful, suggesting some great food nearby. The elevator is comically small, so we opted to carry our suitcases up and down to the fourth floor - exhausting, but only needed when checking in and out, so it was tolerable. The neighborhood was nice, with lots of options for food and markets.

The bathroom was the one spot that could use some improvement; the half wall for the shower lead to water on the floor no matter how we positioned the showerhead. We really enjoyed our stay here and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to others.

The hotel has boutique feel to it. It is old but renovated to an extent. The area is what I imagined Paris to look like with cute cafes and restaurants. It is close to the Parthenon and the Eiffel Tower is a 12 minute drive. There is an elevator but it is very small and can only accommodate 2 people or 2 pieces of luggage only. I didn’t do breakfast but it was available for a fee. They did have a nespresso machine in the room and in the lobby along with water and candy. I would definitely recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a Parisian feel for their stay in Paris.

Location! Friendly and helpful staff! Large room (for Paris). Staff first; every single person we encountered at the front desk or the basement breakfast was friendly and helpful. Three different front desk people tried to call our favorite restaurant (Le Procope) to make sure our reservation was OK after I saw the email response said we were on for a time hours before they opened. Thanks to all of the front desk staff. Lunch at Procope went as hoped for. The staff also got our bags up their tiny elevator, sparing my wife and I (both in our 70's) from the extra effort. Location; easy walk down hill, then level to Notre Dame and walking along the Seine. Short steep uphill walk to the Pantheon. Short level walk to the Cluny museum. Good restaurants and bistros nearby. Outstanding value for the money.

This was our FIRST time in Paris and we loved it! The stay at this hotel made it worth while. Amazing stay, friendly. The room was small compared to American sized rooms but it had everything we needed for our trip. Beds were comfortable and clean. We slept like babies! TV, internet, hair dryer, soap, shampoo, even body lotion. The water pressure was amazing. The small but quaint lobby made it cozy. And LASTLY, our favorite part of the hotel was the breakfast. It was amazing to know that we had breakfast included. The breakfast was outstanding, delicious and very filling. The staff in the kitchen were very friendly, nice and welcoming. My wife and I found the older gentleman ( which we think is the manager) to be very nice. He gave us some advice about places to visit and they were AMAZING. Definitely we will come back to Paris and we look forward to staying in this hotel. BTW the train was super near and the bus right in front of the door. It was about a 45 minute ride from the CDG airport but you are in the middle of everything you need to explore if this is your first time in Paris. Thank you for everything!

The staff was friendly and helpful. The breakfast included was a nice perk that made it easier to get to our site seeing quickly in the mornings. The location was walkable to Notre Dame, the Pantheon, Luxembourg Garden, and the Paris Metro.

The room was what we had requested (3 beds) and big enough for a family of four. Toiletries were included.

We were happy with our stay. A few items that could have been better are: 1. There were dirty towels in the bathroom when we checked in. 2. Because the building is older, water got on the floor by the windows when it rained. 3. There were no drawers for clothes, so we lived out of our suitcases.

We got tricked by the pics and ended up in a tiny tiny room. Make sure to read the SQUARE FOOTAGE within the listing. 174 sq feet is a very small room.

Otherwise a cute space. Very boutique. From the elevator for 1 (or two if you’re really good friends 😉) to the free candy and helpful staff. We had a good time.

The tiny room sucked, but we booked it and it’s on us for not catching which one we chose.

The hotel itself was OK but could do with an update of furniture in the lobby and rooms. The bathroom was tiny. So if you're on the larger side, the shower could be an issue. Rooms was also small.

There is an elevator that is very small, one person and one suitcase is all that will fit, but it works.

Overall, the hotel was in a good location in the 5th District of Paris. The room was acceptable with a bed and desk as well as an additional chair for sitting. The bathroom is small -- it's a space limitation and you need to use care with the shower as the space is limited and water can spill out easy.

Amazing gem

We had a last minute need for a hotel whilst in Paris, the hotel we were in recommended the Claude Bernard. What a recommendation and what a gem of a find.

From the moment we walked in we were made to feel welcome, and the hotel was so cosy and inviting. We were even given an unexpected room upgrade.

The room was massive. More than adequate for us. It was cosy, clean and warm. Some lovely touches like sweets on the bed just added to the experience.

Breakfast was included in the price, and my goodness what a choice there was. Warm and cold food selection, multiple choices of drinks. We were spoilt.

The whole experience was amazing, and upon reflection wished we’d spent the whole of our stay there as opposed to the one we had stopped in for the first part of our stay.

The hotel is centrally located and the area safe. We have no problem or hesitation on recommending this property to others and we’d definitely stay there if we find ourselves in Paris again.

Thanks to all.
