The room, although small, was a lovely authentic French room in a beautiful part of Paris. The bed was a good large size and the balcony view was brilliant. We were greeted by a very friendly man at reception who explained our stay well to us. The location is perfect for easy and quick access to the Metro into the city centre, as well as within walking distance to a number of shops, cafes, restaurants, and patisseries. Lovely little hotel, would definitely come back.

The room was small, older tiled floors but they were clean. Furniture dated but it was advertised as found in bygone days. I found the bed comfortable. The bathroom was a good size and newly renovated. Loved the shower. Our room had a kettle and tea bags. We arrived to a small bottle of wine as a gift. There was a small courtyard and guests often brought croissants, cheese and wine from shops around the corner and ate there. Breakfast was great. There were eggs you could boil and time yourself, ham, yogurt, cereals, breads, croissants, jams, teas, various coffees, and other items. I appreciated the gluten free bread. We were able to walk to the Bastille (2 blocks) and it was a 30 minute walk to Notre Dame. Metro was close by, as was bus service. Lots of reasonably priced cafes and restaurants within a block or two. A local vibrant neighbourhood so one had the feeling they were definitely in Paris.

Very small rooms. Some idiosyncrasies (such as maximum of two in the very slow elevator and limited breakfast options) that led to a very ho hum experience. Staff was pleasant and tried to be helpful. If you just need a cubby hole to sleep, and don’t anticipate much time in the room (which is how we approached it, then it’s fine. But don’t expect any concierge type assistance, or much else, for that matter.

Rooms are small. Tight for two people small table to keep papar work, but no place to sit in a comfortable chair and read. Good breakfast for a fair price very helpful management nice courtyard where guests can meet eachother around a table. Excellent central location near the Bastille.

Great area not so Great hotel

Tiny rooms, asked cor a balcony and no, but next thatEric asked me but after unpacking a bit, it wazntbworth it.He indicated I did not request a balcony and I showed him a snapshot of my request and still told me he did not take in consideration snapshots. So I started to show him original hotels.com resevation but interrupted and said there werent any anyway. He did offer vood information on the Marais neighberhood. Christian and the other front desk were kool. Way to small for the price and maintenance needed. And to think I cancelled my reservation at Hotel Turene for this. My bad.
