Fabulous stay in a beautiful intimate boutique hotel in the heart of the sixth arrondissement.
Pros:

Location fabulous. Loved the intimate feel of the downstairs and the honesty bar . Superior room quite small but lovely aspect. Concierge very friendly and attentive.

Cons:

I had asked the hotel for a reservation to be made at La Maison Rose on the first night. We went all the way up to Montmartre and the restaurant did not have a record which was a disappointment.

Pros:

I recently visited Paris and stayed at Relais Christine. It was perfectly located in St Germain and it is on a quieter street so you are protected from the outside noise. Within a block you have a great selection of restaurants, bakeries, stores. It was easy to get to the metro and/or get an uber to explore other areas of the city.
The staff were fantastic- they gave me some excellent restaurant recommendations and helped me get reservations. The facilities are beautiful for a smaller boutique hotel. There is a small gym, sauna/jacuzzi area downstairs (with a shower if you need to use it before/after you check-in to your room). There is also a beautiful Guerlain spa which I unfortunately didn't have the time to visit. The hotel breakfast was great-they had a good selection of fruit/breads/pasteries/eggs, etc.

My room was beautiful and very comfortable. It had both a shower and a tub which I loved. The rooms were very quiet.

Cons:

I loved everything about this hotel and I hope to return. My only concern was my room was a little small (which was fine because I was alone); but I plan to opt for a larger room when I return with my partner.

Beautiful hotel, great amenities, and awesome staff
Pros:

Accommodations and amenities were excellent, toiletries were top notch, and, most importantly, the staff was phenomenal. Relais Christine treats every detail as important and doesn't try to cut costs on them like other luxury hotels. Every staff member we met was very personable and made us feel like we were guests at their own home. This was the first time we've been to a hotel that we actually *wanted* to spend time in despite being in a city with thousands of places to explore. Would absolutely stay here again!

Perfectly Relaxing
Pros:

We stayed 3 nights at the Relais Christine and enjoyed every moment of the experience. The hotel we usually stay at is currently closed, however we have always been curious about the Relais Christine as we have walked past looking into the pretty and inviting courtyard which is also the entrance.

The communication prior to our stay was excellent and we thank the hotel for restaurant recommendations. On arrival the welcome was light-hearted and warm. We had a quick orientation tour of the hotel before being shown to our room. We stayed in a superior room which had a view of the courtyard. The room was relatively small (as expected) but perfectly formed, spotless and offered all of the comforts we would expect including good storage for our clothes and suitcases. The bed was superbly comfortable and we slept soundly during our stay.

Breakfast is served in the lounge and dining area and consists of a wide choice of buffet offerings although you can order eggs to your preference. Coffee is excellent as you would expect.

This is a very special hotel and we will definitely return. It is a peaceful sanctuary with a gentle and very welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Lovely hidden gem
Pros:

Absolutely lovely place to get a true taste of Paris. Beautiful spaces everywhere, nice little details. Great place for people wanting to be on rive gauche. Looots of remarkable little restaurants around. Stuff is extremely sweet. Strong point worth to mention is the ability to get last moment tickets or table reservations when there is no availability, very convenient. Rooms are very charming but small, in case someone is bothered by it, we were not.

Perfect for anniversary celebration
Pros:

Excellent service, top notch experience! We celebrated a milestone anniversary with a recommendation from a Parisian gentleman we met in California. He made a perfect recommendation for us. Very beautiful hotel in the 6th district, short walk from Notre Dame and Saint Chapel.

Even before we arrived, we had great service setting up a couple tours and special touch requests for the room - flowers and macaroons.

When we entered the hotel, we felt like we were the most important people in Paris. This continued all three days until we checked out. Everyone knew our names, and the extra service was splendid.

The place is decorated very tastefully with a mix of modern and classic elegance. Bed was comfortable and room was very nice. We would definitely stay here again!

Amazing hotel in the Heart of Paris
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at Relais Christine. The hotel is charming, elegant, and perfectly located on a quiet street in Saint-Germain while still being close to everything in Paris.

The staff was incredibly kind and even surprised us with champagne for my birthday, which made the celebration so memorable. Such a thoughtful touch. The Conceirge staff went above and beyond.

Honeymoon Review
Pros:

My wife and I spent two nights at Relais Christine to kick off our honeymoon, and it was one of the most charming and memorable hotel experiences we’ve ever had.

Tucked away on a quiet street in Saint‑Germain‑des‑Prés, the hotel feels like a private Parisian residence—peaceful, intimate, and beautifully designed—while still being just steps from the Seine, cafés, and everything we wanted to explore. We took the train from the airport, which was super easy and accessible, and the first thing we saw when we got above ground was Notre Dame!

We stayed in a king room, with the attached courtyard which was absolutely perfect. It was quiet, elegant, and thoughtfully appointed, with a warm, romantic feel that made it easy to unwind after full days in the city. Having the courtyard just outside our door added a sense of calm and privacy that made the stay feel even more special. Even though it was raining, we enjoyed spending late nights outside drinking wine and relaxing.

The service was exceptional from start to finish. Every staff member we met was gracious, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Whether we needed recommendations, help with reservations, or simply a friendly conversation, the team made us feel cared for in a way that elevated the entire experience. They provided wonderful amenities for us for our honeymoon, with nice touches added both evenings at turndown service.

Breakfast each morning was a highlight—fresh, delicious, and served in a cozy, beautifully decorated space. The spread was AWESOME. The hotel’s spa and common areas were equally lovely, offering quiet corners to relax and recharge between outings.

Loved the idea and execution of the Honor Bar. Anytime we wanted a drink, we'd come down and grab it. No fuss, no wait...take what you want and fill out the quick form before you head out. Great selection as well.

Relais Christine exceeded every expectation we had for our honeymoon. It combines luxury, warmth, and authenticity in a way that few hotels do, and our courtyard room made the stay feel especially intimate and peaceful. We left completely enchanted and already dreaming about returning.
