Paris Hotel Review

The huge amounts of water left on floor due to shower is a bit puzzling and could have been an issue for slipping. The WiFi service was terrible in the room. Outside of those two things the place was quaint and close to bus and train terminals to make it easy to get around. The close proximity to restaurants was an added bonus.

I stayed here for 5 days/4 nights while i was in Paris. Staff was friendly and helpful, they speak multiple languages. The room itself was nice but small, the bed was in a position making it a little difficult to get to the other side. Bathroom was clean and nice. Hotel gave me spooky vibes but in a good way.

Very nice hotel. Small and simple but had all the essentials and staff were friendly. Fantastic location - very close to a metro and a short walk from the seine. Lots of places to eat nearby and walking distance from attractions like Notre Dame and the Louvre. Definitely recommend :)

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Hotel is very old, it smells old, and everything in the room(s) were low budget & poor quality. The hotel “patio” was basically just a pass through to other rooms, not a place to spend time. It smelled like sewage in the patio area as well. Breakfast was underwhelming. The same offerings every day- a basket of croissants, eggs to poach (no other egg option), cheese and yogurt, cereal, and canned peaches/applesauce. A coffee machine, instant decaf and machine juices. Very institutionalized for a “quaint & historical hotel.” Most mornings, there was no room to sit down, and when I returned later, there was little food left. During my stay, I encountered different concierges- the first was nice, the second was fairly silent and non-engaging, and the third person was dismissive and rude. He acted annoyed when answering questions in French or English. Initially made reservation for a few nights, but stayed longer. When I called to see if the hotel had availability and to book it directly, I was told to use hotels.com, and that they couldn’t change the reservation on their end. They assured me they would have room, and would make a note on the reservation to assign me a room for all nights. I reminded them of this when I checked in and they said no problem. Then when the first few nights went by, I was made to repack my things, and move to another room, half the size of the room I booked.
