This is a classy hotel with no pretensions in a unique part of Paris: the Latin Quarter. From the moment we greeted Emma at reception on check-in, we knew we would be in good hands here. Emma had a quiet, friendly, and happy demeanour yet was eminently professional. In fact, everybody else working there was very helpful and polite. We had a small room on the fifth floor but we’ve come to expect small in Europe and the balcony we had offered a little table and two chairs where we could enjoy the evening air, and watch the busy comings and goings down below.
The room was immaculately clean. The bed was awesome comfort, making for a great night’s sleep and the bathroom had all the amenities anyone would need. Hot water was plentiful in the shower and there were nice spaces to lay out our toiletries. We also found nice spaces in the room to set out our suitcases for our short stay in the French capital.
Our booking came with breakfast included each day, as well as a choice of either lunch or dinner at the Italian restaurant next door. In the morning, the breakfast room was closed off from the restaurant and tables were easy to find. The morning waitress cheerfully offered to whip up any kind of specialty coffee you desired and there was a wide selection of high-quality food and condiments.
As you might expect from a proper hotel, there was absolutely no problem whatsoever ordering a taxi to go visit friends for dinner one night or ordering a transfer to the airport when our time had come to get to the airport. Everything could not have gone more smoothly.
As for the location, well, it was excellent for our first visit to Paris, with Notre Dame just a few streets away and the Parc de Luxembourg a mere 15-minute walk south. Definitely worth a repeat stay!

I am a regular customer of this extraordinary hotel with a warm and attentive team, very responsive and who do their utmost to make you feel good there. Ideally located in the heart of Saint-Michel, the establishment offers impeccable quality at a very attractive price. The rooms, beautifully and tastefully decorated, are very charming and inspiring... I am a novelist and I write my texts there! The bedding is perfect, tray in the room (coffee, tea) and the breakfast is very good with a homemade cake every day. Additionally, a restaurant located just below the hotel can serve you directly to your room. Every time I stay in Paris, I choose this hotel and I highly recommend it. Thank you to the whole team, especially FATMA and all the staff (reception, room etc.) for your exceptional welcome, we really feel at home. S.ELAYACHI

Hotel Europe Saint Severin is a gem of a hotel! When traveling in Paris, location location location are the top three considerations, and this property does NOT disappoint! My group included multiple generations which meant different levels of energy and a wide range of stamina. Our location made it easy for coordinating rest time (for those who needed it!) with fun neighborhood walks through the shops and restaurants. Notre Dame is around the corner and Rue de la Huchette bustles with activity. You can be first at Shakespeare and Company bookshop, too! Before our trip, I enjoyed helpful Q/A with the desk staff and appreciated that they remembered the online conversation with me when I was checking in in person. Throughout the trip, the desk staff helped me with logistics... not to mention a recommendation for an off-the-path wonderful pastry shop. Be sure to have breakfast at the hotel. You will be greeted by lovely Ms Shafia who buzzes around non-stop to keep the food stocked up, to make custom fancy coffee drinks, and to refresh the seating as guests come and go. A small-ish elevator and thin walls between the rooms are negligible when offset by the care provided by the housekeeping staff - everything was sparkly clean and proper! Don't miss out on this treasure!

This hotel is located in the Latin Quarter, full of clubs that satisfy everyone's tastes, in a location well served by the Paris Metro. The very kind and helpful staff is ready to please guests. The breakfast, sweet and savory, is rich and well presented, dinner is served in the restaurant with Italian-style cuisine with the possibility of tasting good pizzas. The rooms are clean, equipped with a kettle, minibar and safe. They changed our towels every day and there is no shortage of bathroom toiletries. If I were to return to Paris I would happily stay in this hotel again.

This is our second romantic stay at this Paris hotel, ideally located in the Fifth Arrondissement. The staff is friendly and attentive to guests. Booking on the hotel website is very easy and allows you to enjoy the best price. The classic room (11m2) is quite adequate for one or two nights. The balcony is making its little effect! For more space, the traditional room, also with balcony, that we occupied on our first stay was ideal. The breakfast buffet is rich (savory, sweet, several juices or hot drinks) and of quality! Cleanliness is impeccable.

We were very pleased with our stay at the hotel Europe Saint Severin. There was an incident in our booking, but immediately after my email contact the hotel responded and handled everything in a very professional and friendly manner. Eventually we were so happy with the hotel and service, that we would be happy to return. In service business every now and then something may happen, so it is important that the hotel staff are knowledgeable and customer oriented, as it turned out in this hotel to be.
The location for the hotel is just perfect. Bars, restaurants, touristic areas, parks, river Seine, museums, everything just a few steps away. We also liked the nearby RER train, which was very easy connection to and from the airport CDG. We noticed, though, that at the rush our the trains may get really really crowded, so it is best to reserve enough time for travelling to the airport.
The hotel has lovely atmosphere, decorated with a classic taste. Our room was impeccably clean, and it was properly maintained during our four night stay. The bed was comfortable. There was enough warm water, coffee machine and a small fridge. The room sizes vary, and we felt they seemed to go well hand in hand with the price.
The breakfast was not included in our room rate, which turned out to be a nice thing, as we had then options to try out different breakfast places just a few steps away. Compared to other hotels, our own hotel provided a lovely fresh breakfast with enough variance for a few days. The price was really good compared to what we got, so we were perfectly happy with the small beautiful breakfast room.
Hotel staff helped us in all the ways, being professional and friendly. Thank you for the lovely memories and for arranging us such a special extended spring weekend in Paris!

Booked this hotel because of the short distance from Metro/RER train links at Saint Michel-Notre Dame for my Olympic event travelling along with being on a direct RER line from Charles De Gaulle airport.
Polite and courteous check-in, advised floor and where the Lift is located. Room was perfect (with it's own little balcony) along with a very nice little bottle of fizz on arrival.
I had forgotten that I'd booked Continental breakfast for each of my 5 days stay - this would be a good choice. Lots of options - cereals, yoghurt, fruit, bacon, scrambled eggs, toast, fresh bread, coffee, tea as well as the option of Cappuccino/Espresso etc too. Was quite the set-up for the rest of each day.
Reception were able to provide me with a Euro adaptor on arrival in addition to answers and tips on local shops, directions etc
All in all, my home from home for Paris 2024 Part 1 - and will be again for my Paris 2024 Part 2 in August.

My boyfriend and I booked this hotel a day before arrival, due to needing to change the last one very quickly. We weren’t expecting to find a hotel as excellent as this and in the location that it was in at such short notice, however we found the Hotel Europe Saint Severin. The hotel was in an excellent location, with a wide variety of cafes/ restaurants/ shops very close by and some key tourist attractions only approximately a 15 minute walk away. There was also a metro stop just around the corner.
Upon arrival, we were informed that they had upgraded us to a superior room free of charge- which was extremely lucky given the situation we had been in, and we were able to safely leave our bags until the room was ready to check in to. The room was equipped with a mini bar (small charges for this) and free tea/ coffee. It had a large bath/ shower, king size bed and a balcony. The facilities were great and the hotel and hotel room overall were kept very clean. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking to stay in the area.

Our stay at Hôtel Europe Saint-Séverin was absolutely fantastic. The location felt like something out of a Hallmark movie, with its picturesque streets and charming atmosphere. The staff was incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. Our corner room was not only cozy but featured a stunning wraparound balcony that offered breathtaking views of the Latin Quarter. We truly can’t wait to return for another unforgettable experience.

Hotel is in the perfect location with public transport on door step,The staff are a credit to the company👍 Our room was wonderful but could be 100% if water was hotter it was just warm, And if you like English tea take your own tea bags. Half board for us was a waste but the restaurant is brilliant but half board menu was disappointing as no soup available @20.00 and a couple other items was missing, Breakfast is €14.00 but we felt it would probably be not worth it after the night before, But the restaurant’s normal menu has a superb list. So please do not use the restaurant cos of our disappointment.
