I only appreciated 3 things about the hotel: the location to the Louvre, the breakfast, and the front desk concierge Lamine. But for Lamine, who was an absolute joy and revelation, I probably would be pressing charges against this hotel for misrepresentation and intentional infliction of emotional distress. Everything else was absolutely horrible. Please do not stay here. I took... More

Even though you have lots of options to do in Paris, the hotel is a perfect spot for almost anything. You are steps away from Louvre, St. Honore and Rivoli for shopping, easily walk to Notre Dame and Latin Quarter. For the Eiffel Tower and Champs Elysses, if you are tired of walkin, metro station is very close where you... More

This property deserves between a 3-4 rating. Some nice perks, but not overly special. We stayed here Summer 2011 and were given a nice big room by Parisian standards, incl. a very large bathroom. We arrived very early from the States and were offered breakfast since they couldn't provide a room right away. After a short while, we were given... More

Excellent location, clean rooms, good breakfast. Strongly recommended. Noise isolation between rooms is not perfect but acceptable. Standard room is a bit small like everywhere else in Paris. Food selection for breakfast is not very large but the quality is excellent. Stay was booked through hotel's web site. They also offered transfer from CDG at half the normal taxi price. More

This hotel was in an excellent location, close to the Louvre and to many other places of interest. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, but the hotel itself was very basic and looked very tired. I think renovations are planned for 2012. The breakfast was quite poor. The room was so small that my husband and I could barely... More

By French standards, which arent that high, the service at this hotel was friendly and helpful. The hotel is well located. The breakfast is very average and has that army mess feel about it. The rooms are basic but satisfactory. Laundromat nearby. More

Please do not stay at this hotel. All the photos are a lie. If you look at one of their websites, you will notice a cut and paste of their front doors/entrance. It does not exist. The rooms are so crappy, it is like a hostel. I made the biggest mistake of pre-booking and paying with booking.com and they gave... More

After spending way too many hours reviewing reviews on trip advisor, I decided to stay in this hotel due to excellent location and semi affordable (for Paris - but pricey by US standards) price. Room was very small, but this was no surprise. Bathroom was a little marginal (not entirely clean and very ancient) and room could use some sprucing... More
