A Great Retreat, Super Location
Pros:

Bed was super comfy and the shower was excellent. A/C was a welcome feeling upon entering from the heat outside. The front desk people were always so kind and helpful, esp with calling taxis for us, keeping my wheelchair, providing delicious coffee with oat milk. Top quality Typology hand soaps, body wash, shampoo, conditioner and lotions. Great restaurant and bakery options nearby. Highly recommend.

Cons:

Nice staff, good for sleep only, not worth the price
Pros:

Super friendly staff during daytime. They did everything g to help. I didn’t feel they explained hotel’s functionality properly. Front desk staff at night not well briefed and always on the phone.

Cons:

Regular rooms are suuuuper tiny. They say breakfast is included and/or available and there is only pastry and yogurt, super limited options. No tables to sit or common area to have your breakfast or coffee or work a bit. WiFi at hotel room didn’t reach.

Very limited TV no smart TV only TV in French.

サンマルタン運河を愛でる素敵な滞在
Pros:

サンマルタン運河沿いの道に面していて、部屋から運河が眺められ、目の前が運河の閘門という、絶好の環境。
パリ市内のホテルはどこも最低限の広さの部屋だが、ここは、やや広くて過ごしやすかった。

Cons:

部屋の形が異形で、使い勝手がやや悪かった。
ホテルへの戻りが夜遅くなると、いちいちスタッフを呼び出さないと中に入れない仕組みで、夜の出歩きにはやや不便だった。

Charming, friendly, comfortable hotel in the heart of a fabulous area!
Pros:

The staff were really helpful and friendly. The croissants which are sourced from a local bakery, were amongst the best we have had before! The location was excellent. We knew the area well and wanted to stay right in the heart of Canal St Martin. A small and friendly, charming hotel! Thank you

Cons:

The air con was hit and miss but I assume this was due to the heatwave impacting it. We only really suffered as a result of the heat on one of the days - you don’t always get air con in Paris so hardly a complaint!

Very disappointing experience — misleading photos and unacceptable handling of a serious problem

Unfortunately, our stay at this hotel was a very disappointing experience.

First, the photos on the hotel’s website are quite misleading. They make the property look considerably better than it actually is. The reality was noticeably different from what was presented online.

However, the most serious issue was the lack of air conditioning during an extreme heatwave in Paris. We were visiting during the peak of summer, at a time when temperatures were exceptionally high and heatwaves were even posing health risks. We specifically chose and booked this hotel because the room was advertised as having air conditioning, and our reservation was for three nights.

When we arrived, the air conditioning in our room was not working. What was particularly unacceptable was that the hotel staff were already aware of the problem but had not informed us before our arrival. We were simply told that a technician had been scheduled to come the following week.

They also told us that there was no other room available that night, although they could move us to another room for the following two nights. This was not a reasonable solution, as it was simply impossible to spend the first night in a room without air conditioning given the extreme temperatures.

For this reason, we had no choice but to cancel our stay. We collected our luggage and informed the hotel that we were checking out. Despite the fact that the room did not have the essential amenity we had specifically booked and that the hotel already knew about the problem before our arrival, they refused to refund us any portion of our payment.

In my opinion, this was not only a disappointing stay but also a serious failure in customer service and transparency.
