Loved most

  • Excellent, helpful staff
  • Great central location for attractions
  • Rooftop restaurant/bar and views
  • Comfortable beds and characterful rooms
  • Generally very clean
  • Spacious rooms and good bathrooms (when applicable)

How guests scored the stay

  • Service9.4

    Service is frequently highlighted as excellent, helpful and hardworking ('staff were excellent', 'staff super-helpful', 'very patient and sympa'); a few isolated reports of unfriendly staff or slow restaurant service, but overall service sentiment is strongly positive.

  • Cleanliness9.2

    Multiple reviewers explicitly praise cleanliness (e.g., 'La propreté du lieu est irréprochable', 'clean'); one mention of a sewage issue, but overall cleanliness is reported as very good.

  • Location9.1

    Many reviewers praise the central location and walking access to attractions and dining; a minority note it can feel far from some central areas or that the immediate neighborhood can be seedy with homelessness/urine smell—overall location sentiment is very positive but mixed.

  • Food and Beverage9.0

    The roof terrace restaurant and food are explicitly praised ('great food at the roof terrace'); there are occasional service slowdowns and temporary closures due to filming, but overall F&B is well regarded.

  • Overall Experience8.8

    Overall described as a very good, comfortable hotel with strong positives around staff, location and rooftop amenities; negatives (false fire alarms, neighborhood issues, occasional service/parking problems) moderate the overall experience.

  • Amenities8.7

    Rooftop restaurant, pool/bar and characterful public spaces are praised; however filming during some stays limited access to main restaurant and gym, and parking/valet issues were noted.

  • Room Quality8.3

    Rooms are often described as comfortable, spacious with great bathrooms and character, but several comments mention small or dark rooms, street-noise and small bathrooms in some units.

  • Value for Money7.9

    Mixed sentiment: some call it 'great value' and 'luxury for a nice price', while others describe the hotel as 'very expensive' and criticize high parking/valet costs—net sentiment below the overall target.

    “Overall the hotel is chic and cool. It is an older building and has a lot of history - which my wife and I enjoyed learning about. I highly recommend staying here. The beds were comfortable and a lot of amenities. We wanted to use the pool, but didn't have the time to.”

    “The hotel is in a perfect location in the city centre, with several metro lines just a few minutes’ walk away. We arrived in the morning to leave our luggage, and were pleasantly surprised when we were offered another room on a lower floor that was already available. We really appreciated being able to check in early. The rooftop pool is beautiful – not really big enough for swimming, but perfect for cooling off and relaxing. The drinks at the bar were excellent, and the staff was very friendly and welcoming. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend this hotel. 10/10!”

  • Overall is ok…… just I suggest little more attention to frequent customers.
