The absolute BEST possible location for enjoying the city, the Left Bank especially. We enjoy walking and this hotel was close to everything, I mean everything! I would 100% stay here again.
It was just right, no criticism.

Location wise it was amazing. 10 minutes walk to Notre Dame, 30 minutes to Louvre and Metro was so close as well. Very safe neighbourhood with some lovely places for breakfast and lunches . Bed was super comfortable and the room was clean
No shower in the room as we had a bath instead . Wasn’t aware it only had a bath and not a shower as well.

Staff friendly and helpful. Location very central and a good base to visit attractions. Comfortable bed and clean.
As I stayed with my brother, we had a twin. So it was just slightly cramped. We were given the option to upgrade a few days before, which we didn't.
I minor negative. You don't come to Paris and lounge around in your room all day..

Great location in the Latin Quarter. Easy walk to Pantheon and Notre Damme
Typical for Paris, the rooms are a bit small.
No real communal area

The location. Amazing. Staff as well. Lovely
Room was tiny. Room was tiled so bed moved if you moved. We had to give our key in when we left the hotel. That was weird.

Cozy, near luxemburg gardens and metro
Moquet and powder everywhere. It is difficult to have it really clean.

Great location with easy access to Louvre museum, Luxembourg garden, metro stations, etc. Very clean and with the expected service.
Some renovation activities in the neighborhood with noises in the early morning. Not so happy with the helpdesk as they refused to give us slippers—they told us it is only meant for deluxe rooms and after negotiation I managed to get one (it ia only a slipper)

The hotel is very cozy and the staff very friendly and helpful. The room is quite small, but has it all. The room is silent and the location is very central.
The bathroom is very small, but fine if you are alone.

Location
Small size of hotel and room. The breakfast room was tiny. Not a lot of choice for breakfast
8.0 / 10.0
Close to the Sorbonne and many cafes and restaurants as well as major sites. The staff were all bilingual and tolerated my attempts to speak French.
The very annoying swinging door from the kitchen to the breakfast area. The frequent coming and going of the staff creates so much noise which is so loud and disturbing to one’s peace’s start of the day.

The staff were lovely and the place was very clean.
The room was very small and we only got one key that we had to give back every time we left the hotel, which was a bit strange.

Excellent location. Central to the city. University area just a block or two from tourist area. Street quiet at night, and drapes darken room. Bed adequately comfortable.
Bathroom had poor lighting when using mirror.

Nice room with comfortable big bed and pillows. Excellent full breakfast included in our fee. Exceptional location close to many restaurants and high points to visit very close by on foot, ex: Notre Dame, Pantheon, Latin Quarters, all the stores on Bd Saint Michel.
Pleasant hotel ideally situated.

This hotel had the best air conditioning that I have experienced in Paris. That made the room very comfortable. The shower was great and the bed was very good for a Paris hotel.. It has an elevator. The location is great--in the best part of the 5th. The breakfast buffet is typical. Meats, cheeses, yogurt, boiled eggs, pastries, cereal, and a coffee machine that gave 6 types of coffee. The price for breakfast ($17) was reasonable when you compare to grocery store prices for the same items.
No mini fridge in the room.

Location was good and the room was pleasant and clean. The shower was an actual shower which was great although tiny. The breakfast was better than expected with many choices and friendly staff.
The hotel couldn't accommodate early check in and the room wasn't ready until a few minutes after check in time. The room itself was smaller than what we had experienced in Paris and the bathroom was so tiny you could barely turn around. You definitely couldn't get dressed in the bathroom so if you have teens or someone who wants privacy it is difficult. Luckily we were only there for a night before moving on.

Directly next to the Sorbonne university. Close to all the major sightseeing spots. The room was very clean and modern. The staff was very friendly and helpful with questions we had. They also kept our luggage during the day after checking out.
The room was a bit small, especially the bathroom, (see photos) and the shower doors had gaps on bottom and sides causing the floor to flood. This needs to be improved. Also it was very difficult to put in and take out contact lenses as there was no space on the sink. Also brushing teeth you had to be careful not to hit your head on the shelf above.

Classic Parisian hotel. Good value, by Paris standards, in an excellent location. Lovely view of the Sorbonne and the Pantheon from one of the 5th floor rooms we had, thanks to an upgrade to a slightly larger room that the property offered us.
The lighting in the rooms was a bit dim, but other than that everything was fine.
6.0 / 10.0
The location was wonderful, being close to transport, great food options and a number of Paris landmarks within walking distance. The uniqueness of the hotel was a standout point and the staff were very helpful and friendly
The room was tiny with no room for 2 people to move around each other, and storing of two suitcases was difficult. The bathroom was also small and washing hair which required your arms up meant some banging into the sides. The breakfast, included in our room rate, didn't have much choice and no fresh produce

Really well situated for getting about. Interesting decor and staff all very friendly and welcoming.
This really wasn’t an issue for us but you can hear showers etc in other rooms.

The location was ideal for exploring this part of Paris. The 5th Arrondisement is a culturally vibrant and beautiful area.
There was nothing to find fault with. Everything was very good.

Hotel in an excellent location, all amenities, but also sights within walking distance...
Inside, everything is kind of small, yet so cute...
The staff was very friendly, and we would like to especially thank the young man who worked on our check out time on Sunday afternoon.
We needed a ride to Beauvais airport. He kindly explained to us how to get there with the most convenient option, for which we are very very grateful... We are sorry that we do not know his name...
Dear young man, we made it, we arrived on the Paris Beauvais shuttle bus.
Thank you very much for your help!
