This hotel is the most not-value-for-money among all that my husband and I have stayed before. Usually our budget for accomodation is less than Euro 125 and this is by far the most expensive hotel we have ever paid so we expected a better standard. The hotel & room itself are actually average but I paid Euro 168 per night... More

This is a lovely little hotel in the Latin Quarter of Paris. A budget hotel but one that is central, for most of the sights in Paris .The rooms although on the smallish side were clean and well kept, the breakfast was a good mix of continental choices.The staff were friendly and helpful. The road is on a main road... More

We were looking for a hotel in a neighborhood away from the usual tourist sites, that would be a home base for exploring Paris. Hotel des Gobelins was perfect. The location was great, close to the metro and some excellent dining. It was a very residential area. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They spoke English well and helped... More

My partner and I got the Eurostar to Gare du nord station and got a taxi to the hotel as this was our first visit to Paris and was unsure how to use the metro! The taxi ride took about 15 minutes and cost 15 euros. The hotel is on a busy main road, but this didn't bother us. The... More

Good location in Latin quarter as base to explore Paris. Clean and smart little City hotel with some nice features. Buffet breakfast fine but seating area limited so may have slight delay when busy. Plenty of restaurants nearby to enjoy local food (Rue Pascal). Helpful staff. Short walk to Metro - pass can also be used on buses. Would use... More

The hotel was very much a 3-star. Room was small and the noise of the traffic could be heard through the closed window. We did not have a bath in our room (just had a shower) and the bed was extremely hard. However, staff were very friendly and the hotel clean. In terms of location, it was further from the... More

Stayed last week with my dear friend. Neither of us are as nimble as we used to be and when we asked for a room that was easy to access, it was there. When we needed some ice for a knee that was out for the evening, no issues. They asked us many times if we needed assistance. Hats off... More

We stayed at this hotel for a week and had no complaints about it. The staff was also friendly and helpful. The room we had was very big (by Paris standards) and clean. The breakfast was delightful. We found the room to be very quiet and the bed super comfortable. We were happy to find a safe we could use... More

Our room was larger than expected given the reviews we had read, and despite overlooking the main road there was little noise from the road and realistically little noise from surrounding rooms. We were in Room 10, a clean, comfortable room with a spacious bathroom. This hotel was just perfect for our short trip to Paris. A short walk from... More

As the title suggests, I am a bit disappointed to find there are no provisions for making a cup of tea or coffee in the room. I was offered a kettle at reception when I queried this but though it a little useless without any tea bags or instant coffee?! Still it is only a 3* hotel said the receptionist...... More
