First of all we arrived at about 9am after over night train trip from Barcelona to find we could not book in until 1 pm, why so late I do not know, 11 am might have been reasonable. Left luggage and found some where to have some breakfast, plenty to choose from in the area. The hotel is within walking... More

The room i got was quite small, and the bathroom was small also. The towel rack was squeezed right next to the toilet bowl. the towels were wedged into the small towel rack. they looked to topple into the bowl anytime. I liked the rainshower in the bathroom. it was able to either function as a normal shower, rainshower, or... More

Pleasantly surprised after reading some scathing reviews. Amazing what some people expect of a budget hotel! Its old and the décor is tired but it was clean and comfortable and well located and if you want to stay in your room all day go to the Hilton! Room was bigger than many weve stayed in Comfortable bed Big opening windows... More

Great quiet location - 1 block from Jusseau and Cardinal Lemoine metros. Choice of 2 restaurants on crossroads with other budget / student eateries nearby. Plus cabaret Paradiz Latin nearby. Short walk from Seine (Notre Dame and Pont de Sully). Area feels safe after dusk. Good value for money given location in a major capital city. Room was clean, functional... More

The hotel is centrally located which is good but the hotel is noisy, there was no hot water and the member of staff we met when we checked in was friendly but not when we left - maybe she was having a bad day!

Stayed at this hotel for 4 nights in December. Friendly and helpful staff, and situated close to train station, which made it very easy to commute from place to place. It was winter but the room was comfortable and warm. would definitely go back to this hotel if in Paris.

My family and I stayed at this hotel in early December 2012 and although the hotel is fairly old it was still very comfortable. The location is very central with lots of reasonably priced eateries in the area. It is also extremely close to the Notre Dame, the Louvre, the Luxembourg Gardens and many others. We enjoyed our stay in... More

I stayed at this hotel because my usual favorite Paris hotel was fully booked. From now on this is my new favorite hotel. It was half the price and still in a fantastic location (close to Boulevard St Germain). It is a 5 minute walk to Notre Dame. There are numerous Metro stops very close. Plus an open air market...
