Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel had all the essentials needed for a short stay and was extremely clean and comfortable, which was lovely and unexpected. However, the rooms were ridiculously small for £175 a night, especially for 2 people.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was perfect, right around the corner of Saint Germain des Pres with a nice atmosphere and all amenities nearby, but the rooms were small and outdated, which affected my comfort level.
The hotel has a prime location, just a stone's throw from fantastic restaurants, bars, and the metro stop. The rooms, though somewhat small, are surprisingly quiet and face the street. The service, while friendly, had minor hiccups like mistaking the 'Do-Not-Disturb' sign. The dining options were decent but a bit pricey. Overall, a great location for exploring the city, with small but cozy rooms.
The hotel offers clean and cozy rooms, but the bathroom is very small and lacks space. The staff is helpful, especially Sylvie who went out of her way to make our stay pleasant. The location is superb for exploring Paris, with charming cafes and restaurants nearby. The dining experience is satisfactory, with on-demand fresh food and juices. Overall, a decent choice for a weekend getaway.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were great and quaint, clean though a bit small, just as I expected. They were indeed soundproofed, making for a peaceful night's sleep. It would've been perfect to have a small fridge or at least a mini-bar. The service was top-notch, with staff going beyond to help me during a travel crisis. They were kind and helpful in every situation except for one small glitch where they tried to charge us again. The location is just perfect for exploring St Germain des Pres and the beautiful nearby cafes and restaurants. It made getting around so easy with most landmarks within walking distance or a quick metro ride. The dining experience, while a bit pricey, was still better than average, especially in terms of value for money. I wish there were more varieties on the menu though. Overall, a fabulous place to stay!
The hotel has lovely character and is elegantly decorated, offering comfortable rooms. It can get warm quickly, but my stay on the top floor was quiet and cozy. The service was friendly and helpful, although the parking advice was a bit on the risky side. The location is perfect for exploring St Germain des Pres and museums, with plenty of charming cafes and restaurants nearby. The dining experience was excellent with fresh food and made-to-order juices. Overall, a charming hotel with a few quirks but great value for the experience.
The hotel is situated in an amazing location in the heart of St Germain, offering a true French atmosphere. The rooms, though tiny, were unexpectedly lovely. The service was friendly and helpful, albeit it may not suit everyone. The dining options were limited and underwhelming, while the location provided easy access to the vibrant St Germain district and metro stations.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, although a bit small. The service was excellent, and the location was perfect for exploring the city. The dining options were satisfactory, and the facilities were well-maintained.
