This was a very trendy hotel. Rooms were very clean and nicely done out, albeit a bit on the small side. Great location in the heart of Bastille, one of my favourite areas of Paris. Not much of a view from the rooms though. Friendly service from the front desk. fairly late check out allowed. Didn't bother with breakfast as... more

We paid 180 euros per night for this hotel which is not cheap but certainly a lot different from the published rate of 350. For that price I would have expected a lot more. For 180 the hotel offers clean, stylish small rooms, a nice lobby, lots of amenities (slippers, bathrobes, minibar, safe...), pleasant staff and interesting decor. The street... more

We just returned from two nights here and loved it! We arrived soaking wet - no make that dripping wet! - after a walk from Gare d'Austerlitz. The lady and younger man behind the desk were very polite and overlooked what we did to their lobby! They gave us coffee and a table while we waited for our room. Once... more

We picked this hotel for its location to the Gare du Lyon (very close and a precise 5 minute easy walk) and because it looked nicer than the other local hotels. I reserved three rooms via email and received confirmations back. When all 6 of us arrived on a very busy Paris Saturday afternoon, the non-English speaking desk clerks said... more

Le Marceau Bastille Hotel is a lovely little hotel that is in a terrific neighborhood for those interested in exploring the parts of Paris that are not over-ridden with tourists wearing sandals with socks and fanny packs: the Bastille area itself, the Marais (just a short walk away), and the hipster Oberkampf 'hood. If you do want to find those... more

This is the hotel for us for any future trips to Paris. It was recommended by a French friend who has worked in Paris previously and he had stayed at Le Marceau Bastille earlier this year while on a business trip. He was right. The rooms were lovely, and SO clean. The breakfast was superb, but don't try the pastries,... more

Overall liked the hotel itself. Nicely decorated, good size, nice staff and good quality rooms. Main drawbacks, as others have mentioned, are the lack of English speaking staff and certainly the location. It's a very short walk from the subway, but not too close to any main interest points of the city. more

Stayed here last weekend, nice hotel whose staff could use more training. Sadly, France seems incapable of creating a truly stylish, trendy boutique hotel a la NYC or London, and unfortunately le MB comes closs to its website but isn't quite there (picture no conditioner in the bathrooms, soap in little plastic-wrap, scratchy toilet paper etc and you get the... more

I loved this hotel. Like the pictures on the website, it is very clean and modern, but still charming and colorful. The lobby is very nice and hip, and there's cool modern art on the walls, but we didn't spend much time there. Usually it was pretty deserted. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Our room was very nice-good... more
