Hotel Korner Sorbonne

This hotel is now called Hotel Korner Sorbonne. When it was Hotel Diana it was really good. Now I would not recommend it in any way! The breakfast is just plain terrible for Paris - the croissant was awful. It was worse than an industrial one sealed in plastic from Walmart or any supermarket in Canada. This in Paris where great pastries and croissants are everywhere. There is absolutely no charm left in this hotel at all. White walls, white duvet, etc. There were a number of ants crawling on the floor in the bathroom. The day before I was due to arrive, I also suddenly received a message that my credit card was not valid and that if i didn't get this fixed within something like 7 hours my room would be cancelled! My credit card was valid but the bank was wanting me to confirm it using a work cell phone that I didn't have with me! I contacted the hotel and tried to use another credit card. They said that it didn't work but now that I have checked my statement I see that I was billed for the first night on this card AND paid for this night again. (My mom actually paid because of the craziness of how they were going to cancel the room before I even arrived. They had had the booking for months and were only giving something like 7 hours to get everything fixed once they decided there was a problem.) I now will be contacting the hotel today due to the double payment. They are very understaffed. The person on the front desk in the daytime was friendly. The same person is doing the very poor breakfast and reception at the same time and taking people to measure rooms for drapes, etc. You can't even get out of the hotel sometimes as there is no one at reception to unlock the automatic door to let you out! This could potentially be a fire hazard. The water suddenly was off one day for the entire building without any advance warning. This was fixed when we came back 7 hours later. The rooms are fairly small even for Paris. The location is good. However, AVOID this hotel. It is very expensive for what you get and has zero charm! This is not Hotel Diana any more and not good at all.

Warm welcome clean room and very nice breakfast. Went above and beyond to accommodate our needs, even getting fresh croissants in the morning from the bakery.great location and would recommend Lou Lou’s down the street for a drink or bite to eat.

Location is excellent. Close to all tourist hot spots. Buffet breakfast is good. Rooms are a bit small but it’s down town Paris so should be expected . Clean and safe. Staff was amazing and spoke English and French .quite area yet close to many shops and restaurants.
