Ok, if you want to talk about a value .... this place is a value! You get to stay right in the center of Paris "Ile de la cite" and get to hang out where the real Parisians are. Rooms are very small but clean and the staff is very helpful and friendly (just remember to try to speak in... more

... if you're making the most of it, you will hardly spend any time in your room anyway! The Hotel henri IV is perfect then - a cheap place to sleep - in the most amazing location. I mean seriously, its 100m from the louvre - its in the middle of the ile de la cite and no more than... more

The good things about Hotel Henri IV are that it is in a great location and it's inexpensive, that's about where the good ends. As for the bad, the list is practically never ending. My first attempt to make reservations by phone failed miserably. The first complication I had was the language barrier. My French is practically nonexistent and their... more

I always wanted to stay in that little hidden place in the heart of Paris. The attractive location and the price however are not matched by the rude and unskilled manager who does not know enough about how to accommodate the client. Should you cancel a reservation you made with a credit card, you will not get a credit card... more

As a student in Paris, I always took advantage of the low prices in the Latin Quarter. But with the value of the euro versus the USD, we have been priced out of that area. A friend of mine recalled the hotel as we used to frequent a restaurant at the Place Dauphine. I googled the hotel and it was... more

I am traveling to Paris February 11–18. I had read about Hotel Henri IV's perfect location, charming history, and helpful staff and was eager to stay here. I called to make a reservation--the man on the phone was sweetly patient with my bad French, and I succeeded in making the reservation. They don't have a Web site, don't take credit... more

My parents have been huge fans of the Henri IV since the 80s, and have always assumed that the people who complained on this site were just being unreasonable, but I'm rethinking that now! I was there with my mom in March, 2007 and really liked this seedy but interesting old building. As we left, I made a reservation to... more

I speak perfect French and live in Belgium but it is still a gut wrenching feeling to have to deal with the woman at this hotel. I have stayed there on four different summers because a friend from America wants to do this. But to deal with this woman like having diahrea every day. The hotel is simple, inexpensive and... more

Really an lovely hotel, near everything by foot, charming staff, just a little invonvenient : the stairs, they are very high and with luggage, it becomes hard to go to the last floor. But still, really great choice! more
