Great
Posted on Mar 4, 2025
The hotel is conveniently located in the city, with walking distance to the Luxembourg gardens, RER B metro direct to the CDG airport. The room is clean, spacious, warm, bright and with sunshine—-I love it! There are heater within the room. Breakfast can be better if there’s be any improvement to advice. Overall it’s a great stay!

Magnificent hotel. Quiet and close to all amenities. A relaxing experience guaranteed, and I was privileged to be upgraded to a suite. The breakfast is very comprehensive and the food is fresh.
A superb establishment that I highly recommend.

Small boutique hotel
Stayed in this hotel for 3 nights from 3/28 to 3/31. This is a small but beautiful boutique hotel. The front desk staff are friendly and courteous. Simple requests can be handled immediately. On the day of check-in, arrive at the hotel early and leave your luggage at the counter first. After the meal, the luggage was delivered to the room, which is really considerate! The hotel is cleaned very neatly every day. The breakfast items are simple but delicious. The croissants are so delicious that I didn’t get tired of eating them for three days. The walk from the hotel to Luxembourg Station is very flat and the park is very flat, and it’s easy to transport large luggage. There are also many restaurants to choose from near the hotel, and there is a delicious French restaurant La Ferrandaise next to it. This time I came to Paris to celebrate 25 years of marriage. The thoughtful hotel also gave us a small gift and a small card from L'Occitane. We are here I had a very pleasant vacation. I will recommend it to my friends. I really recommend it~

The hotel is very well located in a more than luxurious area. The service is impeccable and the rooms are comfortable. The breakfast was also very good.

They responded politely. The room was also clean and very nice.
It's a little narrow in some parts, but considering the location, it's understandable.
Breakfast was also delicious.

Excellent hotel, very friendly and helpful staff, very clean. The location is brilliant very close to lots of tourist attractions. There is a direct RER B line from CDG airport to Luxembourg station , which is 200m from the hotel. Train ticket €15 including navigo card. Very good selection of food at the breakfast buffet. Excellent choice of restaurants in the area. We had a fantastic stay.
Response from Property: Dear Chris G, Thank you for appreciating our hotel. Our central location in Paris, close to public transport and with direct access to CDG airport. Also, thank you for enjoying the breakfast, as we try to offer a diverse selection to satisfy everyone. Furthermore, there is a wide selection of restaurants in the area, ensuring there's something for everyone. With our sincere thanks. S.Peccatte Directeur

We’ve been to Paris so many times always looking for the right hotel…this is it! The woman at reception was lovely and upgraded our room. What a nice surprise. The room was so big and not just by Paris standards. We had a great view, comfortable bed, and beautifully clean. We didn’t have breakfast but Nespresso machine in the room was all we needed.
Response from Property: Dear TravelFeind458, Thank you for your excellent review. We are pleased that you had a pleasant stay at Hôtel Le Sénat. We look forward to seeing you again during your next stay but not all our rooms offer a view of Paris like the Duplex terraces. With our thanks. S.Peccatte Directeur

The good: good and safe location to explore St Germain des Près, near the Senat, Jardin du Luxembourg and numerous restaurants. The disappointing part: I booked 2 nights during Paris fashion week so I understand rates can be higher than average during that period. But for 300+Eur per night, I expected more based on previous experiences in similar categories hotels in Paris: - Wi-Fi was very unstable and bandwidth was very poor when connected ( I am a IT engineer ), thankfully I had 4G on my phone. I complained the first day and I understand other guests did too but 24 hours later the issue was still not resolved and the lady at check-out did not convince me they were going to work harder to improve the situation. - Iron and Iron board are not available in rooms. Went to reception and asked for one; the lady handed me the iron board and iron so I carry it to my room . In hotels of that category, they would deliver it to your room. - Rooms are small ( it's Paris) and sound proofing is not good. I won't come back.
Response from Property: Dear Haja R, Thank you for your comment and I have noted that you appreciated our exceptional location and our lobby. Regarding room sizes, they are within the norm for Parisian hotels. I understand that you may find them small in terms of surface area, but it is still possible to book rooms in higher categories. It's true that the period in which you came is a period when prices are high in Paris, but I can assure you that the price offered was interesting compared with hotels in the same category for a comparable type of room. Concerning the Wifi, it's true that we have a problem with our provider and we're currently in the process of changing it because our supplier doesn't respect its commitment to after-sales service. Unfortunately this can't be done in a few days, but the new solution should be effective in July. I hope you will return to our hotel during your next stay in Paris. Yours respectfully S.Peccatte Directeur

As long as you can make do with a small room, small elevator, and lack of big-hotel amenities, Le Senat is charming ,with a wonderful staff and in a fabulous location (St. Germain de Pres). This was our second stay and we enjoyed it both times. We wish that breakfast were included, but there are several cafes within easy walking distance. Very good dinner restaurants very close by.
Response from Property: Dear eleanor02459 Thank you for your positive review of our establishment. I am sorry to hear about your disappointment with the buffet breakfast, l look into the problem with the cold eggs. The price of 18 € includes the following items: x Hot drinks: Coffee / Chocolate / Damann Tea x Smoked salmon x Fresh fruit juice: Grapefruit / Orange x Charcuterie: Paris ham / rosette sausage from Lyon x Hot dish: scrambled eggs / sausage / bacon x Dairy product: fruit yoghurts / plain / 0% x Cereals: 3 kinds x Cheese: artisanal Tome / Brie / Emmental / artisanal Beaufort x Jam and butter: 3 types of jam + honey x Viennese pastries: croissants and pain au chocolat + 3 others different types every day x Bread: individual roll / sandwich bread / country bread / dark bread x Compote x Fresh fruit salad x Cup of seasonal fruit x Cottage cheese x Cooked prunes x Tomato salad x Pancakes x Maple syrup x 5 types of cakes (3 sweet / 2 savory) x Apple or lemon tart x Cucumbers x Salads xTomatoes At the bar it is possible to have an express breakfast including hot drink ; 1 fruit juice ; viennoiserie for 8 euros. You mentioned that it would be better to include breakfast in the room rate. In fact, breakfast is included in the room rate, depending on the package you buy. However, we cannot offer just the room and breakfast, as French law would consider this a forced sale. We hope to see you back very soon. With our kindest regards S.Peccatte Directeur

We stayed at this hotel as apart of our vacation package. I was pleasantly surprised with this cute boutique hotel. It was our first time in Paris and this hotel is in a wonderful location. The check-in/lobby are tiny but so cute and the rooms were actually pretty big. We had a big bed and a nice bathroom with a tub. Toilet was separate from everything else, felt like a weird closet. Breakfast was included in our stay and was perfect. Coffee, croissants and sooooo many yummy pastries! Other than breakfast, there’s no food options. The lobby has a small fridge with small champagne bottles and Coca Cola. So get snacks for your room when you are out. We got a pack of waters from a place a few blocks away.
Response from Property: Dear Nancy F Thanks you for your review. But above all thank you for enjoying your stay in Paris by staying at the Hotel Le Senat. We hope to see you back for your next stay. With all our thanks S.Peccatte Directeur

Stayed at Le Senat for a few days on a leisure trip. Nice location, close to public transit (buses 21, 27, 63 are nearby) and an easy walk to the Île de la Cité. Room was decent, but I have a few recommendations for further improvement. First, for a four-star hotel, there were no slippers provided. Second, no laundry price list was provided in the room. Thirdly, although it wasn't overly warm, no fan/AC was available. Front desk did say it was being repaired; indeed, on my last day the AC was activated. An area heater was provided to warm the room at night, and it was cool enough at night that I used it a few times. Breakfast was adequate, not really worth the steeper price. Nearby eateries probably had similar food for less. A small grocery store was just across the street on rue de Vaugirard, and fruits, drinks, everything a visitor could want, were available there. Overall, it was a satisfactory stay, but the room rate was high for low season.
Response from Property: Dear CanadianEagle747, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review on Tripadvisor. I'm sorry your review wasn't better. I'll take this opportunity to respond to some of the points you raised. Regarding slippers, we only supply them on request for ecological reasons. It is true that we were in the process of changing the air-conditioning to make it more comfortable for our guests, and also to make it more environmentally friendly by using less energy and less harmful gas. We changed our system in winter and spring when temperatures are cold or mild. We've been lucky in that we haven't had any extreme heat, with the exception of 2 or 3 days in April with temperatures of around 24 degrees Celsius. From then on, all our rooms had fully functioning air-conditioning. I am very disappointed and surprised that your breakfast experience was not satisfactory. I provide you with the list of products available every day for breakfast for 18 € per person : Hot drinks: Coffee / Chocolate / Damann Tea Smoked salmon Fresh fruit juice: Grapefruit / Orange Charcuterie: Paris ham / rosette sausage from Lyon Hot dish: scrambled eggs / sausage / bacon Dairy product: fruit yoghurts / plain / 0% Cereals: 3 kinds Cheese: artisanal Tome / Brie / Emmental / artisanal Beaufort Jam and butter: 3 types of jam + honey Viennese pastries: croissants and pain au chocolat + 3 others different types every day Bread: individual roll / sandwich bread / country bread / dark bread Compote Fresh fruit salad Cup of seasonal fruit Cottage cheese Cooked prunes Tomato salad Pancakes Maple syrup 5 types of cakes (3 sweet / 2 savory) Cupcakes As this is a buffet breakfast, you can use as much you like. You're in a room where staff serve you. I'm not sure you'll find the same conditions at the supermarket you mentioned. We also offer an express breakfast in the lobby for €8, including a hot drink, pastries and fruit juice. For your information, the low season in Paris is in August and December to February, so you can probably understand that the prices applied were not low season, as we were not in low season at the time of your stay. On the subject of laundry prices, we had a problem because we use a QR code to display information, but the code didn't work. We had to recontact our supplier and we are currently working on it. Nevertheless, we have the information at our disposal and will be happy to help you. At least, we're glad you enjoyed your stay. With our thanks S.Peccatte Directeur
