La Maison de Jean by Maison Bacou

A beautiful space on the foot of La Cité. Had a beautiful and spacing room, very clean and nicely furbished. Breakfast included and sparkling wine when you arrived. Was able to leave my luggage before check in and after checkout.

The only difficulty I had was when I arrived that I hadn’t received information any further check in information on how to access the property as there is no reception, I believe. I tried calling them but it went to voice mail. Another guest who I met outside helped me to access it. When I went inside I met a member of staff who was very friendly and helpful and sent me the check in details.

Great location very close to the castle. There are also a good variety of restaurants within walking distance. Room was comfortable and clean. The pool was also a lovely spot to cool off in the afternoon with a view!

Breakfast was lovely, but served very late. You also need to pay for parking & it is a bit of a challenge to go into the hotel first to pick up the key to allow you to drive the streets to the hotel.

The self checkin, the shared spaces and amenities

The door to our room was clunky and needs attention, it was hard to close and lock

The location is great although we struggled to find it, its off a main street and tucked up a little road behind some houses. It is very close to the Medieval city (short walk up the hill), and close to a lovely selection of restaurants. The views of the city walls are absolutely beautiful, it was especially lovely at night when the walls were lit up. The place was very clean and well decorated. Good for one night stay, but we really struggled to sleep well so unfortunately we probably wouldn't return. Breakfast was good but fairly limited, especially if you are gluten free the only options are fruit and yoghurt.

Unfortunately we did not sleep very well. Our window faced the courtyard/main entrance and we were kept awake by people standing out there at midnight smoking and chatting, and everytime someone came in through the main door we were woken up by the sounds. The walls are fairly thin. Another thing which isn't ideal is there is big square opening in the wall from the bathroom to the bedroom, and the door is a thin sliding door meaning there is very little privacy. There is however a separate toilet at the end of the lobby/coridoor. Also the automatic lights in the bathroom go off every 3 seconds even when you're still in there which is very annoying especially when you are trying to shower.
