Disliked: Amenities
For what was supposed to be rated as 4 stars, it is definitely not. The room was ok except that it had the smallest closet that I have ever seen-not really room enough for 1 persons clothes. There is no coffee machine but a hot water kettle with instant coffee- not exactly 4 star. Amenities are certainly lacking. The young man at the front desk was most helpful in many regards. The breakfast leaves much to be desired-better to go elsewhere. Most importantly, there is no housekeeping later in the evening-my partner was sick & vomited in the bathroom. I was given towels but no mop or cleaner to use. Not a good situation. I can honestly say that I would not recommend this hotel & it’s certainly not 4 stars.

First of all, this is not a 4 Star Hotel. The lobby - the only public space - is a small room right off the front door entrance. Very few rooms, dark close hallways. Ventilation is not great. Checking in for a 6-day stay, my husband and I were given a room with 6-inches of closet hanging space. Really? That is completely ridiculous. We immediately asked the front desk manager to be re-assigned a room with at least a small wardrobe to hang our clothes and explained we travel with an extensive wardrobe. We could not be moved until the next day - even though we were checking in at noon. So we did not unpack until noon on our second day. But to top off this inconvenience, I was ROBBED. A $600 Dries Van Noten sweater simply disappeared from the wardrobe. I wore it to dinner the second night - and even had a dated iPhone photo of me wearing it. When I went to wear if 4 days later, the hanger was empty. (The sweater was also included in the detailed packing list I keep on my phone in case of lost luggage.) When I reported the theft to the front desk manager, she was completely unhelpful - saying she would have to check "film" and would get back to me in 2 days. One week later, I sent an email asking for the promised update and received replies saying that" (1) no film showed anyone entering our room and leaving with the sweater visibly in their possession - wow - big surprise - and (2) I would have to file a police report, which having left Paris was not possible. BEWARE!

A very lovely boutique hotel in the scenic and lively La Marais neighborhood. A short walk to Notre Dame and the Seine, Metro station around the corner, great bakeries and bistros close by, with fine dining options as well. Clean hotel with robes and slippers, old style charm and comfortable rooms. Loved it, we’ll definitely be back!
