The staff were lovely however when booked I was told by the information it was a room with a city view. When we arrived the view we had was the back of a bunch of buildings, gutters etc. When I asked if we could have the city view I was told that all rooms were booked. I was also told I should have expressly asked for the city view when booking. This seems weird when it was advertised as a room with a city view. Also, when we’re only there two nights, arrived in the evening and the birthday was next day and we wanted to wake up to the city view as promised, This was disappointing. Also, when I said it was a birthday to the hotel by email they said they’d sort something special but all we got was a hastily written note saying happy birthday. Not great at all. Luckily we spent most of the time experiencing Paris. Overall, hotel was a shame in an otherwise amazing time.

The staff were really good and operating in very difficult circumstances due to the extreme heatwave at the time and no aircon, but the hotel condition itself is truly 3rd world. I would warn anyone considering it to think again. It looks good on the net but in reality it is really poor. The owners are clearly focused on nil maintenance expenditure and it really shows. In fact I doubt they can even spell maintenance. At the least avoid room 201 which we stayed in. Location is OK but so are dozens of other hotels in the area.
We stayed in 7 Italian / French hotels of a similar class during our trip. It was the worst by far in every respect of them all. Don't say you have not been warned.

We loved this place. The room that we stayed in was on the 3rd floor looking out over the street at the other older beautiful buildings. It definitely had the old French charm to it. Our room was very spacious. We were in Paris during one of the heat waves and it was brutally hot. They offered us the opportunity to go to a different hotel that has AC without any penalties but after we saw how awesome our room was we decided to tough it out with the heat. We had three fans in our room and it helped. Super convenient and wonderful neighborhood. Close to so many things and close to transportation. Great bathroom. Staff was so friendly and accommodating. We had a fantastic experience here.

Not so great. I booked this room because of the positive reviews. We had a Triple luxury suite. Overall the room was gloomy and not maintained. The cords to open/ close the drapes were broken and tangled on the floor. The carpet on the stairs was grimy. The two beds upstairs were comfortable but the single bed downstairs was uncomfortable and had a “well used” cover on it and we were invited to make it up with the linens in the closet. Breakfast was OK . Another positive …the windows when shut did a good job of silencing “ most” of the outside noise. Dissapointing.

Charming hotel in a fantastic neighborhood close to many shops, restaurants and easily walkable to notable tourists sites. City train is less than 5 minute walk.
The period decor suits the historic nature of the building but does come with a very small elevator and steep stairs to navigate.
The breakfast area is very small but is very lovely in converted cellar with coved ceilings. The variety of food isn’t huge but is satisfying.
The family sized room was much bigger than we expected with a main room plus a secondary space with 2 single beds for kids along with a very large bathroom for Parisian standards. The beds were very comfortable and the room was spotless. Our room faced the inner courtyard so was very quiet at night, we slept with the windows open with no problem. Of note there didn’t appear to be any air conditioning that could be problematic in the summer months but was fine for our Spring visit.
Would highly recommend and would stay again if in Paris.

Most horrible room I have ever stated at.

I am honestly shocked that this room is being charged at $285 per night. The space is extremely small, outdated, and uncomfortable, with broken amenities and no air conditioning. The condition was closer to what one might expect from a budget motel, not a property charging premium rates. Even the hangers in the closet were broken, which reflects the overall neglect.

When I raised concerns at the front desk, I was told, “Yes, Americans don’t like this room.” With respect, this has nothing to do with nationality. I’ve traveled to 72 countries and more than 300 cities, and America is my adopted home — I know the difference between cultural preferences and basic hospitality standards.

To make matters worse, the staff member was unfamiliar with “La Baguette Du Relais,” a well-known restaurant located just around the corner. This lack of care and awareness, both in service and in facilities, leaves a very poor impression.

At $285 a night, this experience was unacceptable.

Our stay was not great. We had a second stay booked here which we cancelled after the 3rd night of not sleeping.

There is no in-room AC in this hotel, so beware if you're booking in the summer! The neighbourhood is quite loud (expected for the Marais), but you can't close the window or the room will be too hot. As well, our window faced the delivery area for the Monop' next door, which added to the noise when 5am deliveries began every day.
Maybe in the winter or shoulder seasons it would be fine to keep the window closed, but we did not have that option.

There is a cat in the hotel. It pooped on the hallway carpet one night, and it was not cleaned up for at least 24h. The lobby smells like cat pee. Our room was clean enough.

Staff is fine, no issues with them specifically.

Horrible experience - DO NOT GO TO THIS HOTEL

Horrible experience at this hotel.

Firstly, I was charged for my toddler as an adult, they forced us to upgrade our room (vs what was booked on Hotels.com). Despite this, the hotel did not provide a proper extra bed while charging us extra.

The noise levels were unbearable. We could hear everything from outside and from neighboring rooms, which made it difficult to sleep. The lack of proper curtains only made things worse, allowing light and noise to enter the room.

Overall, I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. There are better options available in the area, and I will never go back.

You can’t beat the location. The Marais is a great area with plenty to do: dining, shopping, metro station, and going out for a drink. The staff is very friendly. The only thing I would bring up is that the hotel could use a bit of an update. The decor is not an issue, more so the room facilities. It’s quite uncomfortable trying to take a shower if you’re not accustomed to taking a bath; having a shower handle just hanging out is not conducive to taking a comfortable shower. And tv reception was not the best.
