Really charming place for architecture buffs. Delightful staff. As mentioned by others, breakfast is a youth-hostel-type affair, but we found it quite sustaining until late lunch and rather jolly with visitors from all parts of the world. Don't stay here if you have trouble with stairs, with or without luggage. Location is ab fab! When it is economically feasible, the... More

Good location. Very good. But on The other hand, no lift, only stairs, so if youre a little old, it Will take time to get to your room. We had 90 steps to our room, felt like Much more. Old stairs but charming. Breakfast is baguette with butter and honey or marmelade. Coffee or tea. Right in The lobby, funny.... More

I have stayed here on two occasions and plan to stay again next fall. I love the location and it is easy to get around all of Paris from there. The price is right and it is intimate and clean. The history of the building makes me feel like one of the Musketeers.The breakfast is just fine and I love... More

Great location right in the heart of St Germain/Odeon and feels like a bit of 'Old Paris' - rickety staircase, exposed beams and all. It isn't five star - but nor is the price - central Paris for under 100 euros a night - but it is clean, welcoming and in a great location. We have stayed a few times... More

The hotel is located along a bustling street behind Odeon metro station. Location is great as it's just 5 minutes from the metro and surrounded by many restaurants and cafes that open till late. However, that is basically all there is to it. The hotel is very old and in urgent need of some sprucing up. The floor in our... More

This is the 5th time we've stayed in this hotel and we'll go back again. It's a lovely historic building - but that means no lift so don't even dream of it if your hips are dodgy. But it's terrific value for that part of Paris with an individualistic touch. The other guests, from many different countries, are often interesting... More

I spent more than 10 hours reading reviews on different hotels and in the end just booked one night. We found this hotel just wondering down the street, it had a warm family feel and the busy breakfast looked fun so we booked int here for the reminder 2 nights. Room was very big with high ceilings, and exposed original... More

We stayed here for two nights in October 2012. We arrived early and they already had our room ready, so we were able to check in ahead of time free of charge. Everyone who worked at the front desk was very helpful. The hotel is an older building, so there is no elevator. That was not a problem for us,... More

Exactly as we expected having read previous reviews so won’t repeat all that has been said. Having said that, the location was ideal, the hotel basic but certainly with character and everything we needed – we would stay here again.
