Quaint and very old fashioned this property is good form having that old France experience. However I would not recommend it long term. It was like staying in an apartment with EXTREMELY loud and annoying neighbors. My entire 24 hours there I kept wondering, ‘okay now what is that??? Are they cutting down trees or just moving all of their furniture?’ Plus if you are handicapped at all this is not the hotel for you. I picked it because it said elevator and I have a bum knee- elevator was tiny and also non operational so up two flights of stairs I lugged my luggage to get to the lobby.

No a/c was difficult as it was hot. The hotel is one floor of the building. There is limited personnel at the property. If we had visited during milder weather we likely would have enjoyed the hotel room but we could not get past the heat.

Set up is more like a B&B although the property has the word hotel in the name. Located on second floor of residential building. Locals upstairs I felt had elephants for pets, making a lot of noise moving furniture all day and heavy foot steps. Andy on front desk AMAZING! Lovely well run family hotel. Would I stay again, probably not, rooms are tiny for 2 people, no fridge, no complimentary water offered on arrival. I prefer a hotel where I don’t need to listen to local living. Would recommend, however full disclosure, it is set up like a B&B.

The hotel is the second floor in a traditional apartment building. The building is lovely and the rooms have been sympathetically set up with modern bathrooms introduced. The hotel is exceptionally clean. Owners/staff were very friendly and helpful, giving us a map and indicating the various areas to visit. There are also lots of guide books in Reception to borrow/look at. We did not have breakfast at the hotel as preferred to go out to local cafes/boulangeries. We stayed in Room 9 which is a double room overlooking Rue Vaubecour. We did not really hear any noise from outside through the secondary glazing. There was a little noise from the apartment above but nothing too intrusive - maybe just a chair moving on the floor. The location is excellent and we had good weather so walked to all the sights, but there are Metro stations very close by.. We would definitely stay again - thank you!

Amazing location, friendly service. Room was small but tidy and good enough for me. You get a fob to come in and out the time you want but the check in was confusing to me, I was expecting a reception but there was only a door and a intercom, and then another door, you have to call twice so they can let you in. The hotel is on the 2nd floor, so it’s confusing if you don’t know that. If they sent check-in instructions by email prior, I’ve never received it.

Very nice little hotel with a very welcoming staff. The only downside is if you book a room with a single twin bed, you may get the room I got. Its door was facing the reception, so there was noise that was annoying in the morning and late at night. Probably only an issue for the room I had, so maybe request a room away from the reception if you are a light sleeper

Nous n'avons pas testé le petit déjeuner car il faut choisir un créneau horaire. Plateau de courtoisie mis à disposition avec bouilloire.

Perfect for a weekend of exploring and chilling out. Very happy with a reasonably priced hotel that had all the basics covered. Recommend! Plus Abel Comptoir restaurant =next door. Booking required.
