So happy we stayed in this beautiful hotel near Notre Dame in Paris
Pros:

The staff was incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. They were always happy to help with restaurant recommendations and anything else we needed. The room just off the lobby was a wonderful touch, with refreshments available throughout the day and wine tasting each afternoon. We especially appreciated the complimentary bottled water in our room.

The air conditioning worked perfectly and was so refreshing to come back to after a long day of sightseeing. The bed was extremely comfortable, and the room was surprisingly spacious—especially considering how small Paris hotel rooms can sometimes be.

The location was perfect! It was close to the Metro and surrounded by wonderful restaurants, with a vibrant atmosphere that made it easy to enjoy the best of Paris.

Breakfast was wonderful, with a great variety of choices. The cook was meticulous in both preparing and presenting the dishes, and everything was kept exceptionally clean.

We truly enjoyed our stay and would happily stay here again!

Cons:

The bathroom could use some updating. The shower was located in the bathtub, and the glass shower screen moved easily, allowing water to spill onto the floor. This appeared to be an ongoing issue, as there was visible delamination at the bottom of the bathroom door. The toiletries were high quality, but the towels were somewhat worn and looked a bit tired.

Una piacevole sorpresa.
Pros:

Posizione ottimale per una vacanza di 4\5 giorni a Parigi: letteralmente a due passi dalla metro e dalla RER, 5 minuti (neanche) a piedi da Notre Dame e dai ristoranti del quartiere latino. Stanza di giuste dimensioni per 2 persone (eravamo nel sottotetto, no finestra ma oblò chiuso), aria condizionata e, incredibile a Parigi, un bagno e un letto di dimensioni umane. In ogni caso, stanza molto accogliente e non anonima. Validi i prodotti da bagno. Camera sufficientemente insonorizzata. Disponibilità nel lasciare i bagagli prima del check in (poi ritrovati in camera all'arrivo come da foto) e dopo il check out (ripresi prima della partenza in aeroporto). Staff sorridente, gentilissimo e disponibile per qualsiasi informazione (a volte anche in italiano): uno dei punti di forza dell'albergo. Colazione varia e adeguata con possibilità di extra giornaliero su richiesta. Piccolo ascensore ma funzionale. Pulizia ineccepibile (può non piacere la moquette, ma letto e arredi supererebbero un test Barbieri).

Cons:

Non mi è piaciuto non aver scelto questo albergo nel viaggio precedente.
