Nice hotel in a nice area but that's about it. We were placed into a small, uncomfortable with no working electrics upon arrival and assured that we would be moved the next morning, which we were. Considering the price of the hotel it's worth it for the area but it's a very basic hotel. It does has a charm about it but it's really nothing special and doesn't merit a 4* rating as there is little to no amenities in the hotel. There isn't even a fridge in the room. The staff in the other hand were very friendly and welcoming. I would return to the area but not the hotel.

Great hotel in a very good location. Staff were incredibly attentive and rooms were perfect. Air conditioned and water available in lobby. Beds were comfortable and shower and tub (separate) were great. Very close to both metro station and bus stop and walkable tons of restaurants and bakeries.

We were in a family room on the 6th floor. The room was nice and clean, and the towels were changed when we did not leave “do not disturb” sign. The bathroom was clean as well. The staff is friendly and helpful, and there is always coffee, tea, water and sparkling water available at any time of day and night in the main lobby. The breakfast was okay to tie you over. The metro stations are close, 15 minutes walk to Sacre Coeur. Great location with lots of good food options around, as well as Monoprix 2 minutes up the street if you need something from the store. I recommend for the family.

We loved staying here. It is convenient to walk to everything! The staff is so sweet and helpful. We loved all the little details. We enjoyed eating at Restaurant 35 on Quai du Jacob and Les Antiquaries only a short walk from the hotel! The bed is firm would be the only drawback, but I will absolutely stay here again❤️

Avoid at all costs!!! Dust everywhere

Checked out after night one - not only was the room much smaller and darker than advertised, but the walls were all covered in cobwebs and clumps of dust. We checked in around 10pm, so the night porter moved us to a different, slightly larger room, but this had the same issues - walls all covered in dust, including around the bed area. Surfaces covered in dust too. We couldn’t believe it - a lovely (and expensive) weekend was nearly ruined. Given it was 1am when we’d finished reporting this to the night porter again, we decided to try and get some sleep as far away from the walls as possible - four sleepless hours later we packed up and requested that our stay was cancelled. When we mentioned this to management in the morning, we were told it was ‘normal’ and it was dust that had collected off suitcases and ‘stuck to the wallpaper’. In disbelief, we asked them to cancel our remaining nights and booked a nearby hotel (the best decision we made all weekend). The hotel eventually refunded us for the two nights we didn’t stay, but charged us full price for the night we did stay, despite only using the room for four hours or so. Absolutely disgusting room standards (it was much worse than we could capture in phone pictures) and even worse service.
