Great property in a great location
The “fabulous” rating is well-deserved. The property is in a prime location, in a historical building, the room I stayed in was beautiful (I was upgraded), with preserved beams and stones from the original building, the linens were of good quality, the bathroom seemed newly done and well-built, the lighting, layout and decor of the room were well-designed. The room overlooked the Sorbonne, and the windows could be opened. The Wednesday afternoon concierge who checked me in greeted me warmly and was on point and amazing in all respects, and the staff I came across were all very nice. The Thursday concierge who checked me out was the only negative experience. I highly recommend.
Those lit up windows are those of the hotel

Friendly but the room is tiny
First of all, I must say that after paying nearly USD $800 for a three-night stay, I was quite disappointed when I opened the door to the room. The room was very clean, and the housekeeping staff did an excellent job tidying up every day. However, the space was so small that there was barely any room to open a suitcase. If one person needed to use the bathroom, the other would have to squeeze to the side or leave the room entirely. That said, I have to commend the staff for being incredibly friendly, which is definitely a highlight of this hotel.

Best European hotel we’ve ever stayed
My husband and I were in Paris for 4 days for a winter vacation. First, Laurent and Maria Teresa at the front desk were amazingly friendly and helpful. The entire staff were. The rooms were perfectly clean and the way they are set up is very clever. Felt more like a high end condo than a hotel room. We loved it. The location of the hotel is far enough from a main street to be quiet but close enough to easily access anything we needed, including a supermarket called monoprix that has a whole basement grocery area. There are numerous train stations within a 10 minute walk, including one for the RER train that goes directly to Versailles. And the river is only a 10 minute walk away. The decor of the hotel is fresh and cool. Has all of the extras that go into a high end hotel. Paris is a great city to explore and coming “home” to this hotel was a real pleasure. Some rooms face the square, which would be lovely, but ours faced an equally beautiful building, on a side street that was nice and wide so that we got plenty of blue sky and sun light. It was great to be able to open the windows. Breakfast was just right for us and we ate there every morning (eggs bacon fruit pastries, etc). But there are restaurants all over the area. The hotel is in the Latin Quarter, but so close to St. Germain that you get the best of both worlds. Everything about this hotel was top notch but without being snooty, if you know what I mean. We will definitely return!

Comfortable rooms with character
The hotel has made great efforts for the rooms to be functional and comfortable in a limited space. So long as you are not big people the hotel is great but may be challenging for the larger guest. The public areas are beautiful with an art installation and high quality fittings and comfortable furniture. Only downside was some damp wood in the bathroom which made the room smell a little mouldy. Staff were really friendly and helpful and the rooms spotless

Was coming off a stay at a terrible hotel elsewhere in Paris and moved on impulse to this one for my last couple of days. I was met by the loveliest man at reception who helped me plan my last couple of days and who gave me just the warmest welcome. The bathroom was gorgeous, the bed comfortable and I love a robe in a room! Would happily stay again.

Staff were extremely helpful. Location is terrific. Beautiful space. Right on the Place de la Sorbonne, a pedestrian space. Hotel rooms are typically small as expected, with toilet separate from shower/bath and sink. Modern decor. Adequate lighting. Windows opened onto the square below which I always like. Tub is very slippery and a mat would have made showering less scary.

Our room was on the ground floor surrounded by the maintenance rooms and no other guest rooms. Very loud. A room should not have been put in the maintenance area. We paid over $215 a night to basically stay in janitors closet.

Great stay
Room was spacious enough for a family of 3 (with toddler). The area around the hotel is quite safe at night, and the hotel is located close to a lot of things you may want to do during your stay. Especially if you want to shop.
