Reading other reviews I think a lot may depend on the room you get. I stay regularly in Paris and I have to say that room 204 is probably the smallest I've stayed in. The bed was very comfortable but you literally had to squeeze between it and the desk/chair. There were a few niggles such as the bathroom radiator... More

This was my second stay at this hotel. I went back this time as the location is perfect for the Marais district. This time we had room 205 and another room on the first floor. They were markedly different in quality. Room 205 was a twin room, was clean, tidy, spacious and really comfortable for two adults. The only downside... More

Next to three subways and close to the Place Republique and Marais; very friendly staff. Rooms are renovated, with nice bathroom. Breakfast till 11:00am A lot of restaurants, bistrots and bars around. Centre Pompidou, Picasso museum in walking distance

I used to regularly visit Paris 25 years ago on business and stayed at a dingy, hotel which was in serious need of a renovation where you heard every movement in other rooms and every time someone used the bathroom. Unfortunately NOTHING has changed in 25 years as this hotel ticked all the above boxes. Whilst it is well situated... More

Paris is a wonderful city but also a big city with big prices.... so this is the perfect place for value for money: wonderful location and good price. The room was okay in size with a very big bathroom. ipod docks in the room with tv made for a nice touch although the decor was a little dowdy... this is... More

The Hotel des Archives is one of the best 3 star hotels in Paris in terms of value for money/ location and service. I stay here often on business trips and have tried various rooms here.The people are very helpful and friendly. They serve breakfast in the room at no extra cost and have free internet access. The rooms range... More

The location in the heart of Le Marais is perfect; a quieter district but with good range of restaurants and bars. Although the bar just round the corner had live music until late on both nights I was there. The morning was a lot quieter that the Bastille and so I wasn't woken at 5:30am by the rubbish collections and... More

We booked a twin room and it turned out to be huge. The decor was nice and modern but fairly standard, there was a huge plasma T.V. The spaciness really impressed us. We also had a nice over out over the park. The breakfast room was small and didn't look very good, but the hotel is easy walking distance to... More

I stayed here back in 2006 and 2007 and was very impressed. More recent stays not so much. It is beginning to get a bit "threadbare." Carpets worn. armoir beginning to fall apart. Our shower didnt work. Towels were thin. Front desk is still very good and very friendly and I love the location but I will no longer stay... More
