My daughter and I stayed at this hotel for 6 days. While smaller rooms than we are used to, it was clean and comfortable. The front desk staff were very helpful and took time to help us when we had questions. The location was unbeatable. You could walk to major attractions easily, or get to the metro a street away....

Just a few minutes away from Notre Dame and the charming area of St. Germaine, this hotel exceeded our expectations. It was me and my mom traveling, and we enjoyed the room (twin) as well as the breakfast, and the hospitality of the staff at the front desk who were extremely helpful, such as Sophie. We really loved the hotel,... More

This is a very nice little hotel in an excellent location in the Latin Quarter on the Left Bank. My mom, teenage daughter and I had a lovely visit. It was clean, quiet and cozy. The staff were all friendly and helpful, the breakfast was plentiful, the maids were terrific and the location was perfect. It's a 10 minute walk... More

This is the small, clean place to stay in a good location. I just reviewed my other hotel in London that was not. 3 blocks from Notre Dame, St. Germaine great for food and shopping, metro very close. Not great, but minimum standards for American tourists. The bad- our sons room did not have a shower curtain, but was made... More

Was there with my girlfriend early november 2011 for 5 nights. We chose this hotel because it seemed like a good location and was affordable by Paris standards. Well, that's what you get here. This hotel is in an excellent location in the Latin Quarter with the metro a three minute walk away. Great centrally located neighborhood. The hotel is... More

I have never written a review to complain before but don't want anyone to have their holiday ruined by staying there. This hotel shouldn't be a three star if even a one star. We were so shocked at what we experienced. Everything from Sophie on reception to old dated looking small rooms, small bed ,bathroom, small old looking lift that... More

Stayed here five nights in a room for three - actually two rooms - one with a double bed and another with two twins. Comfortable beds, clean sheets, very clean room though a bit dated and small. The lobby is very pretty with comfortable seating and a computer. The hotel is very close to Notre Dame, the Pantheon, two metro... More

The location is great for walking to many major attractions. There were also good cafes and restaurants nearby. The room was small but clean. There are not many amenities - our room did not have a shower curtain, for example. If your stay is short, one or two nights, this would be a fine choice.
