We stayed in this hotel for one night on our return from Nice to Britain
It is a typical Paris 3* hotel i.e. adequate without being anything special.
The room and bathroom were very pokey, but clean and comfortable.
Breakfast(included in the price paid) was okay.
The receptionist was very good in ordering a taxi for us at a difficult time with transport strikes in the city.
Good choice of restaurants around. If you want somewhere posh and you like sea food, go to the Bar au Huitres
It was not the hotel's fault, but the taxi driver really ripped us off by charging 55 Euros for the trip to the Gare du Nord. Talk about taking advantage of the strikes!

The Hotel is very small, it must have been renewed in the last years, it looks still pretty new. The rooms are also very small but very cosy. The bathroom was quite new and modern. Everything was tidy and clean.
The Hotel is in a secondary street, that means it is not too loud. It is in the Latin Area, with lots of restaurants and shops and if you get the train from the airport you then just need to walk for a few minutes to the hotel. There are also different metro stations in walk distance.
There is a small breakfast room with a french buffet, the croissants are obviously delicious!

Excellent Budget Option - Well Worth a Look

If you're looking for a good reasonably priced option this hotel is well worth a look. First off the rooms are admittedly on the small side - but no smaller than you'd necessarily encounter in other small hotels round town - if opting to stay over a weekend (as partner and I were) and wanting a convenient base from which to explore the city, then this has a lot to recommend it. Our hot tip would be to book early and request a room on the sixth floor if possible - Rm 63 has a corner bath (with shower) which whilst still compact gives that little bit more room. Being on the 6th floor also is quieter and affords a pleasant view over the roof tops. As others have commented the staff on reception were friendly, courteous and very helpful. We pitched up early - 9.30 am - left our luggage in the room set aside for this purpose then headed off to explore the city, only getting back to the hotel 6 pm.
The Hotel is very near to St Michel Notre Dame - the RER train from Charles De Gaulle (or indeed Orly) stops here - a single on the RER gets you all the way to there for Euro 8.50 [single] - look out at the station in the airport for the BLUE ticket machines for "Ile De France / Suburban" Tickets - not the red "Grande Ligne" Ticket machines - the machines have a button for English Language / easy to pay with credit card.
The Hotel is on a nice quietish street (for the centre of Paris) - find Rue St Jacques off the Quai San Michel and walk up that street - the hotel is on the Corner of Rue Sommerard and Rue St Jacques , a short way along from the Cluny Museum. From here you can explore the Left Bank, or stroll down to Notre Dame and the Marais. Recommend a visit to the Pantheon - a 10 mins stroll from the hotel - go 11 o'clock on a Sunday morning and take the tour up to the dome for a spectacular view over Paris.

Nothing superior

Stayed here last week for a birthday break. Found the hotel OK clean and safe but very expensive for what you get. As mentioned before the rooms are tiny. We are small people and could not turn around in the shower. We had booked superior rooms but there was nothing superior about them. None of the rooms have a good view and if you open the window it is very noisy. The 'mini bar' was empty. (Not a problem to us as we would not have used it anyway). A kettle and tea and coffee are not automatically provided in the rooms but in the room literature it says this is available on request. I telephoned on our first evening and asked for a tray. I was told that I would have to come and get it from reception which I did. The maid took this away the next day. When I asked for a kettle again this was met with hostility and I was told there were no kettles available. Personally I think that is very poor. That said some of the reception staff were lovely, friendly and helpful. The hotel is in a good area for tourists no problems there. Just be aware that with the strength of the euro drinks and meals are really expensive particularly in the St Germaine area. You can find continental breakfast at the local cafes for 8-9 euros. We took a taxi from CDG airport to the hotel on a busy friday afternoon. This cost 50 euros.
