We needed a one night stay close to my daughter’s apartment in Paris. So this hotel was convenient. A very typical Paris hotel. Small rooms and bathrooms. Clean enough. And very basic. Breakfast was offered upon arrival for the next morning which we thought was part of our accommodation. But upon checkout they charged us for the breakfast and tax.

Outstanding gem in a convenient location

We enjoyed our 14-night stay at Grand Hotel Français greatly! Our Superior Double room suited us very well: it was well-appointed, quiet, and very clean with a comfortable bed. The bathroom was immaculately clean but very small -- but that is to be expected in Paris! Note that the only English-language TV station available during our stay (May, 2025) was France 24 News (excellent, but adding BBC News and CNN might be a nice addition). Housecleaning service was excellent. Breakfast was a pleasure each morning with an excellent variety of fresh hot and cold food options, French pastries, great coffee and beverage choices, and pleasant service. We especially appreciated the uniformly positive, helpful, and welcoming demeanor of the hotel staff -- from the manager to the front desk to the breakfast staff to the housecleaning personnel. The hotel's location is outstanding with direct walking access in a safe and very Parisian neighborhood within a 5 min. walk from Place de la Nation without many tourists, and easy access there to many public transportation options (four Metro lines, RER, buses). Metro 9 is 2 min. walk away in the other direction and connects to everything. Perfect at a reasonable price. We felt welcomed and look forward to staying here again in the future.

We love this charming boutique hotel and have stayed here on several occasions. We have chosen this hotel in particular because the manger and staff are so helpful and welcoming. This is truly the highlight of staying here. The rooms are comfortable, and the location is great. It is easy to get to any part of the city you would like to visit, and the neighborhood has many innovative and creative restaurants. We would highly recommend staying at this hotel.

The staff and the owner were very present to help us, told to have a great day/night everytime we left and to chat. The man in charge of the breakfast always had a smile. Always there to bring what was missing. The only thing that didn’t fit this perfect week was the taxi that was called for us, was with a driver not vaccinated, antivax with very strong political views, that wanted to be paid cash. Thank you for your great service.

2 Happy English Pensioners!

It was very friendly/welcoming. Lots of help with what to see and how to get there. Had a few French lessons from Monsieur and his Father! Bed extremely comfortable and complementary drink(s) much appreciated. Very clean too! What more could you want?

Room was clean, but VERY small. I suppose that’s typical for Paris, but this room was a tight fit for two people. Several of our bathroom towels had pre-existing stains, as did our bed’s coverlet. But the rest of the room and decor was spotless. Staff is very courteous and helpful. Not a lot of attractions close by (other than Pere Lachaise cemetery), but Metro Line 1 is only a 10-minute walk away.
