The staff were all very friendly. Some were more knowledgeable and able to offer helpful information than others. The bed was comfortable and the AC was a relief to come back to. Generally the room was clean. The bathroom could use a deep cleaning to rid of some mildew in the grout. It’s visible close up but there was an odor of mildew. It was not awful but steam cleaning would elevate the accommodations quite a bit. We did not use the spa or have the breakfast but both looked good.

Amazing location and the hotel and the room were very nice. The only drawback was the bathroom - the room was clean, but the bathroom had a permanent off putting smell that resembles mould.

Give it a miss

I am almost positive I had money stolen from the in room safe, 160 dollars. The bathroom shower leaked water all over the bathroom as the show curtain did not do its job. There was no iron or ironing board in the room. Staff were friendly and helpful and the only other positive was the hotels location. I would not stay here again.

Highly recommend!

It is a lovely boutique hotel in a great location. All the staff we spoke to could (thankfully) speak English and were happy to assist with anything! We can't wait to return.

Excellent hotel to enjoy the Marais

The hotel is in an excellent location, close to great restaurants (and a friendly Enoteca just out the front door), shopping, Notre Dame & Sainte Chapelle, Metro stops, and the fascinating Marais neighborhood. The staff is friendly, attentive and helpful. This was our first visit to the Marais district, and Charles V was a great, convenient spot to begin our explorations.

Safety is a big issue here

It all started fine, front desk was nice enough, room was clean enough but definitely shows wear (paint chipping, dust on the bathroom door and a little grimy on the shower door rubber water stopper thing). This was my first solo trip and as a female traveling alone safety is number one. First of all the room only has a lock that you open with a key, no extra bolts. During my second day I lost my wallet while shopping, possibly pickpocket. So I was feeling quite shaken up after that and left with no money. The hotel didn’t offer to do much but I didn’t expect them to i guess. So i am now quite nervous about being alone and the morning I was to check out, at around 9:45am I was still in bed and suddenly heard the lock opening. At first I thought it was the neighbor opening their door but then my door opened and I was facing the door and saw a man. I said “hello” and He said excuse me and closed the door and locked it. When I told the hotel at check out they refused to believe me stating that there was only one key. And when I told them it was a man they further responded that it was impossible because house keeping were not men. They dismissed me, I only brought it up because it seemed weird that housekeeping would open the door without knocking first. And I really wanted them to be aware and check into it. But instead they made me feel like I was making it up or I was lying. Why would I make up something like that?!?! So, single ladies please be aware!!

The hotel staff are very friendly and helpful. The hotel is conveniently located with several metro stations close by. The room is sufficient and the bed is comfortable but the bathroom is small with very limited shelf/counter space. The cleaning service is not always consistent.

Nice hotel.

Liked the hotel. Room was surprisingly large for a Paris hotel. Clean, quiet friendly staff. Great location in the Marais. Limited breakfast but more than adequate. Great coffee. Cold eggs.
