Hotel de Seine

The location of this hotel is definitely a highlight—walking distance to great restaurants, cafes, and plenty of things to do. The breakfast smelled delicious each morning, though we didn’t get a chance to try it. (That said, we’re still not sure why we could smell it so clearly from our room on the 6th floor.) We booked a “superior” room, but it was incredibly small for two guests. It would likely be much more comfortable for a solo traveler. The wash closet was surprisingly spacious, but unfortunately, it wasn’t clean. There was mold in the shower grout in multiple areas. Water also leaked onto the bathroom floor due to the glass barrier setup, which added to the frustration. The bed was not comfortable—mediocre at best. On a positive note, the AC worked very well (probably helped by the small size of the room), but the air in the room was stuffy and had an odd, musty smell—likely made worse by the bathroom condition. One note: the elevator is very small, but that’s expected in an older building. It wasn’t an issue for us, but it’s worth mentioning for future travelers. In our opinion, this hotel is not truly a 3- star property. It felt more like a 2 star experience, and we’re giving it 1 star due to the extensive mold issue, which is unacceptable at any level and directly impacted both the air quality and the overall comfort of the room.

What a little gem, located near to Louvre and Notre Dame. Great staff, very polite and very helpful. Lots of good bars and restaurants near. We will definitely be using this hotel on our next visit. Rooms might not be as big as some other places but for the price in the middle of Paris was great value

Loved every night of our stay in this quintessentially French hotel. We were looking for an immersive stay in St Germaine des Pres, a place where we could walk the city, enjoy the food and culture and soak in all Paris had to offer. We were not disappointed. The staff were friendly, helpful and attentive, the accommodations comfortable and inviting and the breakfast was fantastic. If you’re looking for something authentic, in a centuries-old building and district, this is it. Walking distance to The Louvre, Notre Dame and so much more.
