Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
My husband and I stayed here for our first trip to Paris. The location is fantastic, a short walk to the metro station and overlooks beautiful Notre Dame Cathedral. The Latin Quarter area holds all sorts of great places for live music and food as well. The staff were great and helped with any recommendations needed. The room was AMAZING – we stayed on the top floor with a split level room that was well stocked and maintained throughout our visit. I highly recommend this hotel for any occasion!

This is the second time my sister have stayed here, and we will stay here again. We usually travel every year to Paris together, and we have stayed pretty much all over in the past 14 years. We originally chose this hotel due to its proximity to everything we wanted to do, and it did not disappoint. We enjoy walking a lot in order to work off the calories we consume, and this is the perfect location to do so. It's also great if you decide to take the Metro instead of walking back, as a station is steps from the front door.
Like last time, we booked a room with a view of the Seine and Notre Dame, and it did not disappoint. The hotel is clean, cozy, and comfortable. The staff are friendly and kind, patiently allow you to practice your French on them , and very helpful.
We arrived in the early morning from the States, as we normally do, and took the RER into the city. RER B takes you directly to the hotel, with an elevator entrance/exit a few yards from the hotel. We got to the hotel about 9 am. Our room wasn't ready, but we were able to leave our luggage there while we went to grab breakfast at a nearby cafe on Ile St. Louis. We came back about an hour later to grab something from our bags and were told our room was ready. We had booked the Room Notre Dame on the 4th floor and had a fantastic view of the cathedral. The room was what was expected, size wise, and it had a standing shower, safe, small desk, and some chairs.
The bed was comfortable, and the curtains suitably blocked out any light from the street and the sun. We did not have any issues with noise from the street, but we also sleep with a white noise machine. The walls are thin, and we could sometimes hear our neighbors, but it's an older building, and we were hardly in our room.
Note that you have to walk up stairs to get to the reception, but we saw them help other guests with their heavier luggage if needed. There is a small elevator from the reception floor that goes to the rest of the floors above.
There is a breakfast that you can either book with your room or purchase in the morning.
There are a TON of restaurants, cafes, and things to see and do within easy walking distance to the hotel, and it was great to have the hotel so conveniently located if we needed to take a quick rest from a long walk or a large meal.
The only thing we wish there was, was some extra hooks in the bathroom to hang our towels, but we ultimately were fine without them.
We are coming back in the fall, after the Olympics, and we have already rebooked the hotel for that visit.

We stayed for three nights, the location was amazing, decor fabulous, staff really friendly and helpful Yes the elevator was on the small side Yes the floor sloped slightly Yes the shower was a fixture on the bath So...you have to walk up some stairs....which made me happy every day, they are carpeted in various beautiful colours The bedroom was spotless, our cleaner was charming The elevator made us laugh, but accepted it was an old building and they'd obviously tried hard to get it to fit in at all - so be grateful! We loved the sloping floors, just added to the amazing character of the building Okay breakfast didn't blow us away, but for 10 € is was just fine There are loads of restaurants within the area, one of which we were recommended by the young gentleman on reception, best best steak!!! Le petit chatelet. Thank you for our amazing stay

In a great location with views of the façade of Notre Dame Cathedral from some bedroom windows (best to request when booking). The RER (over ground trains) and Metro stations are both within five minutes walk. In addition the Louvre, the Museum d'Orsay, Tuileries Gardens and the Place de la Concorde are all with walking distance.
Breakfast is continental with tea / coffee, orange / apple juice, yogurt, breads and pastries.

I picked this hotel because it is centrally located and looks quirky. It is both of those things. However, the central location means it is noisy from the constant traffic and sirens and when you leave the hotel you are right on the street, as in the foyer is up one flight of stairs. The quirkiness meant that the hotel was very dark everywhere and frankly felt like a fire hazard. The walls are lined with fabric and the stairs are covered in dark carpet. Paid extra for a view of the ND. The rooms are tiny and barely have enough space for luggage. The toilet was challenging to flush. You may need to know that although there is a lift, you still need to lug your luggage up one flight of stairs to reception, and from there it is so small and frightening that we only used it to put our luggage in - we didn't want to risk getting in there! The stairs are all different sizes and shapes and the corridors are so tiny you could stand in one spot and knock on three different doors. The breakfast was nice enough. Overall, dark, small, hazardous and disappointing.

Hello Madame, Thank you for your detailed feedback in regards to your recent stay with us. As you state it we're very very central right in front of Notre Dame Cathedrale and with this comes the busy and very touristy activity...though all our windows are double paned and most of the noise reduced. Our old fashion, cozy parisian atmmosphere pleases most but we understand it is a matter of taste :) Designed by famous Christian Lacroix. In terms of room standards, this is indeed Paris :) in its centuries old buildings but we're average and we do have larger rooms and duplexes if need be. There is indeed a flight of stairs to reach up Reception and you arrive in the lounge area with a wide and upper view of the Seine river and Notre Dame, not practical for luggage true but such a plus to be above the activity below. We wish you all best wishes for this New Year 2024 :) Sincerely, Managment

This was our 2nd stay, having last been here in 2016. Happily, nothing has changed. This hotel is just steps from Notre Dame and the Seine, with the Latin Quarter and the Marais around the corner. The rooms are clean and reasonably-sized for Paris. They offer pastries and yogurt for breakfast at a nominal additional cost and they offer bar service in the quaint lobby. The staff is welcoming and speak English, so your stay will be easy. Note that you do have to get your luggage up a set of steps to reach the lobby, so pack light. I highly recommend this hotel.

Great service, little gifts were provided by the management, making my experience all the more special.
Beautiful view of the Notre Dame. Tucked away in a little corner by the train station, this was a perfect little home base in Paris.

I was a little concerned when entering to get to lobby you had to go up about 15 steps and we were luggage heavy since we were bringing holiday presents to family in Paris and bringing back presents for US family so that was a little tricky but their web site declares in several places that you have steps to lobby so this was all on me and I missed that. FYI, there was no one for luggage help. Once in the lobby the small elevator was right there and worked great. The location is fabulous... Lying in bed and seeing Notre Dame lit up at night (even w/ her scaffolding) was awe inspiring and watching the Seine flow by was a plus. The RER train right across the street, metro a couple blocks in 2 different directions. One side of the hotel does face a busy street and our room on the 4th floor faced that street but the window kept out most of the noise except for sirens but at night we were so exhausted I did not hear a thing.. There were multiple cafes, restaurants close and a few charming allys with shops & restaurants directly behind the hotel. The room, actually roomy for a European hotel, was charming and clean, comfortable and the linens and towels were all fluffy, the pillows were great and the mattress was very comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful and always had great advice. We skipped the breakfast since there were so many cafes around and we were always on the go to somewhere so we chose to grab breakfast and mosy on. Their price for breakfast was competitive with what we paid off premises. I'd take clean, comfortable & cozy over fancy & fussy any day so I'd go back to this hotel on my next stay...

Dear "lkgtraveler" We would like to thank you for choosing our hotel ( dispite the 15 steps you have to climb till the reception :) ) and for leaving your so clear and up to the point review about it . Indeed even if the hotel is well soundprofeed the central area where is located can be busy sometime but in the meantime gives you easy acces to the major touristic attractions of Paris. Is so nice to see you enjoy our staff - is our aim to make our guests feel like home - and we hope you had a nice trip back home.We wish you all the best for this New Year and we hope to have the chance to welcome you on the very next future in the "City of Lights"; Best regards Simona

Conveniating location close to Notre dame, Metro and RER station. Overall a very nice hotel in Paris. As previuos reviewers has mentioned, Therese are no lift up to the first floor where reception is and no wall handle for the shower. Breakfast is light French (coffee, juice and bread) so if you want more than that, Therese are pleanty of restaurants around the corner instead. No fridge or water. Nice personnel and check in and check out very smooth. Would stay here again.

Firstly I will say to each his own. But if you have high standards and good taste, this is not the place for you. The staff is very unfriendly. The rooms are shabby not chic! Carpet on the walls and the carpet on the floor is a wood plank pattern. Bed was very uncomfortable. The location felt very unsafe at night. It’s an area you may want to visit but not stay at. Highly recommend that you stay away.

Hello, Since you seem to want to put your negative review everywhere....for obvious intentions of yours....here is our answer yet again...We leave the rest of our rave comments do the talk :) We have well received your rating and feedback and we would like to put the facts there...more for our readers though. While at the Hotel, nothing had been a situation and we received no complaint from your end. Till the point where you departed without doing a proper check out. The receptionnist called you later on as the city taxes were left to be paid for (your room was prepaid). It is at that very point that things changed, you became aggressive and we will pass the details but you seemed to blame the fact you were not informed of this as an excuse not to pay for what was due....we hear you out but it does change the fact that it is a due, that the threats written then were unnecesary and your final feedback here just shows your real intentions which we regret in the end. Fabien

there are some steps to get to the lift and the lift is tiny. It's a great hotel with great views of the Seine or Notre Dame. If she can make it up a few steps, it's definitely worth staying there.
