A wonderful stay in Paris!
Pros:

This is a wonderful hotel. From the moment we walked in we felt welcome. Laurent is so warm and friendly and the staff was welcoming and kind. Our room was beautiful with a view of big trees, the Sorbonne and a view of the square which was beautiful at sunset. It's very quiet because there are no cars on the square. The bed was so comfortable and the shower room was very nice. The neighborhood is wonderful. We were really sad we had to leave. We will stay here again next time we are in Paris! A tip is to book this room type for a larger room that's beautiful! Thank you Laurent and staff for making our stay so special.

Cons:

Everything was great!

Fantastic base for a restful stay in lovely part of Paris.
Pros:

The location is fantastic! Walkable to lots of main attractions. Literally a few steps away from great restaurants. The hotel overlooks a lovely leafy square next to the Sorbonne and just slightly away from the really touristy restaurants. The rooms are really well appointed. Comfortable beds great shower and very tasteful decor. The staff are super friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Nothing.

Centrally located and comfortable
Pros:

The property is located in an very safe and convenient location. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Overall the hotel was great. The toilet area is a bit small if you are a plus size. For us it was not an issue, but thought I would share for others. The area is in a great location. Very quiet, this is important to me because I am a light sleeper. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. There are alot of restaurants right next to the hotel and many more at a walking distance. Near the train station and walking distance to most attractions.

Pros:

We stayed here for 3 nights on our honeymoon, and it was the perfect place to celebrate this special trip. The location was excellent and made it easy to visit many of Paris’s attractions.

The front desk staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming. We were delighted to receive a room upgrade, which made our honeymoon even more memorable.

The room was beautifully designed, spotless, and very comfortable. Having a bathtub was a wonderful bonus, allowing us to relax and recover after busy days of sightseeing.

Thank you for helping make our honeymoon such a lovely experience. We would gladly stay here again.

Wir wurden am Morgen nicht aufgeweckt um 6:00 obwohl am Vorabend angemeldet.
Es wurde uns ein ungrad angeboten, obwohl es eher die Dachkammer war, die noch übrig blieb. Nicht fähr!

Wonderful hotel with location and staff all above expectations. Love the four days we were there.
Pros:

Staff are amazing. So happy to help you with questions and make suggestions. Location is AMAZING for several places to walk to and restaurants, bakeries and groceries are all within one block. Absolutely loved it!!

Cons:

Really nothing would fit in this, but we did find the shower-tub a bit unique - with the toilet around the corner. All functional, just unique. Tun/shower may be difficult to get into. We’re in our 70s and used it with caution.
