This is a gem in the 5th arr. Large room with bigger than average bathroom, great location at the bottom of Rue Mouffetard, and at 85 euros in Paris - this is a special place indeed. Staff was helpful. Restaurants aplenty within a short walking distance, and a Metro stop that was handy. Will stay here again!

For the price and location, it can not be beat. We spent two nights in a room with shower and 6 nights in a room with bath and hand held shower. If you want a larger room then pay the extra 10 euro for the room with bath and hand held shower. When you arrive at the airport, be sure... More

Stayed here for 6 nights and enjoyed them all. Inexpensive for Paris. Rooms small but clean. Great location, easy access to Metro Station-line 7 Censier Daubenton, bus stop across the street, and lots of places to walk if you choose. Two Italian restaurants close by as well as a great local favorite-Les caves de Bourgogne. We ate there twice! Yummy!... More

I have stayed in the Esperance four times in the last four years. I love the location in the 5th arrondisment - close to the cafes and restaurants on rue Mouffetard, an easy walk to the Luxembourg Gardens or the Seine, and a mile's walk to the Port Royal RER station that connects to the airport. The rooms are clean... More

The squishy bed and grumpy controlling front desk staff detracted from this cute little hotel, which was delightfully located near the Luxembourg Gardens, walk to all sorts of delightful restaurants and downtown with ease from here. Unfortunately, the staff were impatient with us for our limited language skills and efforts to try our French on them. We felt like we... More

Stayed at this hotel with my two daughters in a triple room, which was a double bed (very firm) plus a couch folded out and made up as the third bed. We took a taxi from Gare de L'Est (20Euro) as I have learned that trying to find a hotel while toting luggage can be difficult. Our room, #42, was... More

I've returned to this hotel many times and have sent numerous friends as well. The location of this hotel is perfection. Sure, it's somewhat kitschy and there is some funk to it (elevator stops mid-floors for example) but this can all easily be overlooked when you consider the price and the location. I mean when you're in Paris, you shouldn't... More

This is our standard hotel in Paris. We found it many years ago and still love the location and the ambience. It's walking distance to downtown, Rue Mouffetard with it's many restaurants and marketstands is just a few blocks away. The rooms are a little worn down, but clean and warm (even when like now it's subzero and snowing outside).... More

Jolie petite hotel for our romantic sejour in Paris. Comfortable, clean and carefree. Well placed for the fantastic market, the groovy bar cafe closeby which we much frequented, the Cave de Borgogne bistro and neighbouring restaurants. Reasonable access to central Paris, we even walked from Notre Dame one evening. Great value and we hope to return.
