The location is great, close to 3 metro lines and walking distance to Montmatre. The staff were all very friendly and we loved the layout of the room. Our kids loved sleeping downstairs and we parents liked being in our own space after bedtime.

The hotel is very outdated and needs repairs. Despite the condition, I can see its beauty when it is in its days of glory. The staff are very welcoming abs accommodating. The location is good. Walking distance to the metro and a lot of shops and cafes around.

Liked: Staff & service
The staff is extremely friendly and helpful and the hotel is charming, but if I am being picky, the property itself needs some renovations. It is ideally located and can really benefit being renovated. Some attentions to details such as cleaning under the bed and around the bedside tables would do a lot of good. The bathrooms are a little outdated as well and can benefit from a change of appliances (especially the shower heads).

Yes we need renovation but as we will close our doors definetely at the end of August you will understand that we will not engage a lot of money. Best regards, François Mombellet Manager

Disliked: Amenities
They close at night and lock you out. No one answers the phone to let you in. I spend 10 minutes knocking on the door before a rude attendant came to the doors and told me to bring up my concerns to the manager. The next day, the manager apologized for not having a call number listed on the door. Clearly they do this regularly. I opened a window to let some fresh air in. It could not close and when asked for help to get is closed, it’s as if I was bothering the attendant.

Dear Sir, You did explained me all this the day after and I did apologizes as it was not normal at all. I told the Night who should have put a note with his phone number to be called when he is doing his tour of the hotel. Not normal at all as well the attitude of the Receptionist even if after he fixed the window. Hope you had a nice stay with us without those too incidents. Best regards, François

Simply OK. I had to go out and buy tea bags and cups as there was only a single one use cup in the room and one tea bag. I think most of the remorse come from the hotel advertising itself as a 4 star facility. They are setting themselves up to fail. the hotel is nowhere near 4 star standard, though the price tag can reflect it.

One of the worst experiences I’ve had at a hotel. We were not able to check in until 10pm because they were “short staffed” and couldn’t get the room ready. After trying two times before to check in that’s when they finally let us go to the room, but not before saying that the buildings air conditioning isn’t working. We tried to leave and get another hotel, but due to needing a baby crib and it being so late we were unable to so we had to stay there. The room was hideously decorated, had holes in the curtains, dirty stains on the rug, and the furniture was falling apart. Since the a/c was broken we had to open the windows and could hear everything. A party was going on at the corner till 5am so no sleep for us with a baby. Next night, a party across the way that yet again made soo much noise there was no sleeping. I ended up closing the windows and sleeping in 85 temperature to semi no hear the noise. Breakfast was terrible, bread and crossiants in a bag and hard boiled eggs. With everything that happened they offered free breakfast, but I already purchased the rate with it included and was told they couldn’t refund me. I will calling and emailing until I receive some sort of compensation, but was told by two staff that it was “impossible” to refund us because we went through an outside agency, being Expedia. I will also be contacting Expedia to see what they can do to help me. Again, worse experience I’ve had at a hotel. Do NOT stay here.

Response from François Mombellet on 5 Jul 2021
Good morning, I am very sorry about what happened to you with this stay. You are right to be upset, and I do apologize, It should not have been like that. First the reception should have found a solution for an arrival earlier, so lack of experience. For the A/C yes it is not on because in Paris it is less than 25° outside, but you are right during the WE there are a lot of people outside during the night, and with the windows opened, it may be difficult to sleep. So I am waiting your email to see what I can do. Sorry again, best regards, François Mombellet Maanger

The perfect location for the perfect stay
Amazing few days spent in Paris, we came out for a special birthday and have left with nothing but fond memories. The Hotel was perfect, the staff are attentive however don't go over the top. The rooms were a good size for a city centre hotel. All the beds were perfect, its nice to have a proper bed for two children stopping. Rather than pull out beds. The location was great for getting around Paris, everything is walkable or just hop on the Metro.

Dear Guest, It is disapointing that you are writting that we have bedbugs, when you never came to see us, never spoke to us from any such problem. Bedbugs has nothing to do with hotel quality. you can find them in 1* or 5* hotels... Bedbugs travel in your luggages. World most infected city is New York. So you can imagine that bed bugs travel with you in all the world. Your Review is anonymous. who are you? In wich room have you been? When? We take VERY SERIOUSLY, the problem of bed bugs. The hotel is regularely inspected, and when it happends, we always take strong action. Never we could accept, to give you a room with bed bugs. Sorry anyway, if something happend. We will of course take care of inspecting our rooms. I really would like to insure our futur customers that you can safely come to visit us. Best Regards The Manager

This hotel is very charming, very French. The old-fashioned rooms are clean and comfortable as well as gorgeous. The decor is very striking. The people working there—especially Lea at the front desk—are warm, helpful, and cheerful. They give you a sense of belonging. The breakfast is varied and excellent served in a festive breakfast room. The bed was perfect. I won’t stay anywhere else. The location too is great, within walking distance of several desirable spots in Paris. This is a superb hotel.
