The hotel staff were very professional and courteous. They took care of your every need and provide recommendations. The rooms were very clean and orderly. The location is great since it’s by the gardens, which is a great walk, and good walking distances to many things. There is also a cafe next door for convenience. Excellent stay.

We've been to Paris a few times now and love choosing a new place to stay each time. We were disappointed in this choice. Due to a hurricane in FL, we had to adjust our flight and arrive at 7 am, Paris time. We arranged a driver through the hotel. He never showed. After much back and forth on What's App, we got a taxi instead. Our room wasn't ready but there was no offer of breakfast or coffee on the house. Once we came back to the hotel to see if the room was ready, which they were supposed to notify us, but didn't. The room was so incredibly small. We are used to the size but the configuration allowed for no room to walk. There was a desk with a stool at the end of the bed. Luckily we are fairly slim but it made for a rough trip to the bathroom in the middle of the night. One night we had ants in the shower. The AC worked but was so incredibly loud. We had to beg for more pillows, constantly reminding them. All in all, it was a nice location, but we are used to better hospitality and that would've made the stay much more special. …

Oct 2021 did a girls week and stayed at this hotel and it was outstanding!!! Rooms were great, front desk staff friendly and very helpful. The cafe was excellent!!! Fast forward to Aug 2023, after such a great experience we chose to again stay at this hotel. It was quite subpar. Rooms were stiffing when we checked in, hotel staff said it was best they could do on air and they had turned to the lowest setting allowed, bathroom had a strong sewer smell, front desk staff were not very friendly nor helpful. Asked for extra towels and the man at the desk acted like it was an imposition to walk to the linen closet and hand us 4 extra towels, actually signed loudly! Requested a cab, was told it would arrive in 5 min, after 10 it had not arrived so we walked up the street to a cafe. Upon our return to the hotel the person at the front desk admonished us like children that cab arrived and we were gone. Indicated the cab driver insisted the hotel pay 5 euro for no show. We apologized and and said please add the cost to our room. The gentleman at the front desk stood with his arms crossed and said its not important with a very sour facial expression. Totally unprofessional! But, the cafe was just as I remembered, friendly staff, good pastries and excellent cappuccino! Only downside was in 21 we were able to order our breakfasts the night before, this trip breakfast was buffet style. Not so sure I would trust another stay at this adorable boutique hotel. So sad as it is in a perfect location and we loved it so much on our first stay!!!…

Lovely stay, a great room that was facing a Garden and not the Boulevard. But regardless, it’s perfectly sound proof. The brasserie at reception is quite friendly. Great staff, professional and helpful.

Walking into this hotel was so cool! Very hip vibe. The rooms are way smaller than they look online but I would recommend! The beds are separated and I love that. Wifi is great (at least on the first floor) and the staff was lovely!! So helpful.

A charming hotel, full of character and quintessentially Parisian. Good-sized rooms, comfortable beds, well maintained and spotlessly clean. Friendly and helpful staff. Great location across the road from the beautiful Luxembourg Palace and Gardens and within easy walking distance of St Michel, St German and Montparnasse. Midway between two metro stations. Good value for money.

if you are dependent on wifi during your travel, be wary of this hotel. i stayed for two nights, the wifi was functioning properly in the lobby and on the stairs but never in the room. It took two days of complaining for the receptionist to tell me this was a temporary issue and will be looked at after my departure. To sweeten the pill, they offered a complimentary breakfast on the checkout. However, a coffee and croissant is poor compensation for having to rely on your roaming data to keep up with work. For other travellers' sake I am hoping it was indeed a temporary issue, and not a policy of not investing in decent access points for the rooms.
