Just back home from the most fantastic stay at the Hotel Abbatial. I really cant recommend this hotel highly enough. Before we even arrived the customer service was amazing. I sent a message asking if I could have a bottle of wine and a cake in the room on arrival, the trip was a surprise for my Husbands 40th Birthday. I also had some standard questions about the room facilities (if there was a hairdryer/Iron available, which there was) Veronique very quickly replied to me advising that this would be arranged. When we arrived at the hotel it was Veronique at reception who was very friendly and professional. I had booked a superior room with a balcony, when we entered the room we were very pleased, the balcony had a table and chairs overlooking the Bvd St Germain. Awaiting us was a lovely bottle of sparkling wine in a wine cooler and two beautiful tartlets from a local patisserie, what a lovely welcome. The room was a good size and the bathroom also with a bath with a shower over it. The room is nicely decorated. There was a mini bar which had a variety of water/orange juice/beer and Coke. It was also big enough to fit in your own bottle of wine should you wish to purchase at the local supermarket (which we did and enjoyed sitting on our balcony of an evening) The area which the hotel is in is the best in Paris in my opinion. You are spoiled for choice with local boulangeries, café’s restaurants and shops. I would also highly recommend taking a 10min walk to le Jardin du Luxembourg which is stunning. The hotel ask you to leave your key with them when you go out which was actually very handy, never having to worry about where it is when you are out and about. Whenever we gave our room card over the staff were very friendly, and even put up with our terrible GCSE level French as we tried our best (its been a while since school) we wanted to show willing but didn’t need to as the reception staff were all as good at English as we are! Our rooms were cleaned daily and always smelt amazing whenever we came back. Although it was very hot whilst we were there (up to 36degrees Celsius) the room was always comfortable with air con. When it was sadly time for us to check out the hotel kindly let us store our bags whilst we waited for the time to leave for the airport. To summarise we had the best stay, and will always choose this hotel from now on when we visit Paris. This is the best example of a family run hotel that I have ever encountered, and I would highly recommend it to anyone. Thank you so much Veronique and the team for a memorable stay.

The hotel entrance is very nice and kept really clean but the lift is tiny. The rooms was clean and well presented but also again very small and walls are really thin so can hear people in other rooms. The bathroom was good and the shower really powerful. It is in a great location and close to the metro stations there is the road side of the hotel but once doors are shut you don’t really hear the road noise.

The hotel is very close (5 minutes walk) to the Notre Dame and many restaurants. It was renovated very recently so everything looks like new. The rooms are very clean. We had a room with street view but we were not bothered by the noise, because the rooms were well insulated. The breakfast is very extensive and tasted delicious! Next time we are in Paris I would definitely choose this hotel again!
