We really enjoyed staying here. The location was nice, close to restaurants and luxemburg gardens but still tucked away so it was nice and quiet. The hotel breakfast was perfect for us before we started our day. The highlight was the staff, all were so friendly and always willing to help. Every person we interacted with was lovely.

Emplacement super mais confort à revoir

Choisi pour l'excellent emplacement.Personnel à l'écoute mais lit mal fait et serviettes changées en dépit de nos consignes. Surtout salle de bains sans patère et bonne lumière pour se rasere et chambre très petite inaccessible quand on ouvre l'ascenseur.

Super cute hotel. The staff was very friendly and the breakfast was nice. Although the rooms were very small. I did like how the windows opened to the courtyard and it was walking distance to so many cute cafes and restaurants.

Perfect location. Clean. Much smaller than the photos but did the job perfectly. Breakfast was great. Staff very friendly and helpful. Room cleaned every day. And the mini bar items were all free (no alcohol).

Inte värdigt 4 stjärnor.

Framstår vara som ett fyrstjärnigt hotell men ser det mer som ett trestjärnigt. Fräscht i sin helhet men luktar avlopp på toaletten, sprang råttor på innergården, toaletten rann vatten samt att kylskåpet inte fungerade och blinkade konstant. Kunde inte heller låna ut paraply när det regnade fast man såg det stod i receptionen. Extremt lyhört samt att det sattes igång dammsugare och ställdes fram massa städverktyg utanför rummet på bottenplan vid 07 på morgonen.

My 3 night stay was very good. Loved the location in the 6th district. Felt very safe walking around on my own. The room was great, quite spacious with lots of storage space on each side of the bed. The bathroom was also modern and spacious with a window. Loved the large poster of Marilyn Monroe above the bed which reflected on the bathroom mirror.

Ophold i Paris

Fint ophold, var kun på hotellet om natten. Centralt beliggende i forhold til de metrolinier vi skulle bruge. Den eneste direkte mangel var, at der kun var en stikkontakt og den var på badeværelset.
