Heel goed gelegen.

Cons:

De kamers waren koud. We konden niet zelf de temperatuur in de kamer regelen en moest en dit steeds gaan vragen aan de receptie. Heel ambetant.

Great little hotel, excellent location, very clean with the most comfortable beds!
Pros:

This is a cute boutique, hotel in the 6th arrondissement. It is perfectly located with many cafés, restaurants, shops, and bars, walking distance nearby. Bus and Metro also closeby which makes it easy to get to all major Paris attractions.
Breakfast was included and it was perfect and very convenient. The rooms were very clean the beds very comfortable. We enjoyed our stay very much!

This Experience Cost Me Money for Nothing - Read Before Booking
Pros:

Location was ok in terms of placement in the city but it's on a side street that feels run down and beaten up.

Cons:

This listing is a clear misrepresentation of the actual property. The photos and description create the impression of a legitimate 4-star hotel, but the reality is materially different.

The property is extremely small and does not meet any reasonable expectation of a 4-star standard. It feels closer to a 2-star operation that has been superficially upgraded and repositioned as something it is not. Even the pricing presentation appears engineered to create the illusion of a “discounted luxury” stay.

Basic elements reinforce this mismatch. The check-in area is minimal to the point of being unprofessional, and the surrounding area does not align with what is being marketed. Overall, the experience falls well below what is being advertised.

I raised these concerns immediately at check-in and declined to stay. Despite this, the manager refused a refund and attempted to charge the full $698 for two nights.

Bottom line: payment was demanded despite no stay and no service delivered.

Proceed with caution and verify carefully before booking.

Decoración Esquisita y Personal Encantador
Pros:

La decoración es exquisita aunque como en muchos hoteles de Paris las habitaciones son mínimas y no hay casi espacio ni para abrir las dos maletas.
La habitación y la cama son muy cómodas. La habitación está insonorizada y se duerme de lujo.
El staff es muy amable y encantador.
