Hotel des Grandes Ecoles was a lovely & homey place to stay. Our room was simple, very clean and a welcome relief after a long flight. No televison in the room but none was needed because there was too much to see in Paris. Since there was a great little bakery nearby, we opted not to try out their breakfast.... more

This charming hotel is in a great location close to buses, metro and sites but I have two complaints. First is that the caulking around the tub (in an otherwise very clean bathroom) was mildewed. Second is that neither the room nor the hotel had anywhere to just chill after site-seeing. The room had a round table with two wooden... more

We stayed here in October, and although the room was small, it was comfortable. It was the last 4 days of a 2 week trip and a great finish. Location was the best, we walked to most places and the staff was very helpful in giving directions to places of interest. Daily we left with a map, bus number and... more

Fabulous location-just a short walk to restaurants, markets, transport. Helpful staff, more than eager to ensure a pleasant stay. One of the smallest lifts I have experienced but at least there was one to access upper floors with luggage! Lovely outside area and good security at night. more

Stayed two nights in this nice hotel. Our frieds were in an upper room with sloped roof and were not too comfotable. We have a ground floor room (#1?) . We were a little concerned to be right off the main lobbay but the double doors blocked any noise. Our room looked out onto a side garden and the front... more

We stayed in the Hotel des Grandes Ecoles in Oct 2009 and had a wonderful visit. Our plug didn't work, so Marie lent us a plug and a hair dryer. The room was small but charming, with toile wallpaper and crocheted bedspreads and a rather large bathroom. The bed was a queen and the mattress comfortable. We didn't get the... more

Centrally located with clean and spacious rooms - this is a gem!. The staff are exceptionally friendly and make you feel very welcome - thanky ou!. There is a wonderfully lush garden where guests sit during the day and in the late afternoon can gather and enjoy a glass of wine. more

It was love at first site as my husband and I strolled in through the cobblestone entry of the hotel. Both the staff’s cordial greeting and the charm of the hotel were all we’d hoped for. Our room was situated on ground level just off the garden court. Although some guides recommend adventuresome A.M. feasting in local neighborhoods, we enjoyed... more

Great Hotel, very clean friendly, a very warm welcome. It was my first visit to Paris, I had heard the hotels are small often dirty and noisy. This one was the opposite to that, it had reasonable sized rooms, very individually decorated and clean. The hotel is in a side street so very quiet, and set back even further in... more
