Le Petit Paris

"10/10 Area, location, safety feel, vibe, near transit, Boulangerie and restaurants, comfortable bed and pillows, clean room and value for money. Shout out to Alexandra the front desk 10/10. Stayed at room 203 facing the courtyard which has no view or views of neighbouring roofs. Which I don’t mind because I only need a modern, safe, and clean room to sleep while we explored Paris."

"Gorgeous little hotel. Lovely room with a little balcony. Very clean and quiet. Great location, this was our first time Paris and we didn’t know what to expect. Lovely to be so near the metro and the beautiful Luxembourg Jardin. Had breakfast just the once - it was fine. Only took one photo!"

"This small hotel is in a good position close to the Luxemburg Gardens. Luxemburg is on the RER B line, with direct services to Gare du Nord and the Charles de Gaulle Airport. Come out of the station by the Gay Lussac exit, walk down Rue Gay Lussac take the second right turning , Rue Royer Collard, up a small incline at the end of Rue Royer Collard turn right into Rue Saint Jacques and the hotel is just 25m down Rue Saint Jacques . Be sure not to miss the hotel the entrance, it is inconspicuous. The staff were all very friendly, don’t expect the grand reception and lounges that you get in bigger hotels. My room though small was tastefully decorated and looked out over the courtyard, my friends room was decorated a hideous shade of red, with large plastic blobs were the bed head should be. The air-conditioning was perfect, absolutely silent, and would quickly heat the room up in the morning. Rooms overlooking the Rue Saint Jacques can be noisy late at night with revellers and cars and in the morning when the rubbish is collected. Breakfast is served in the small lounge. The breakfast though not expansive is more than adequate with scrambled eggs, cold meats, cheeses, tomatoes, breads, pastries and fruits. Breakfast finishes at 11am which suits night owls. There is a small courtyard where you can take breakfast if the weather is mild. Free Tea and Coffee is available all day. There is no bar as such, but an honesty bar, help yourself to beer, wine or sprits, fill the form and hand it to reception who will charge your account, but check the drink prices. There are several restaurants nearby, we found Bistro Mauzac and Au Port du Salut. The bistro Mauzac has a fairly typical Paris Menu, the “butchers piece” varies, you might get a superb bavette of beef or a rather tough steak. The Au Port du Salut has a good menu and there is also a pianist playing classic French songs most nights. There are lots of Chinese / Vietnamese restaurants nearby, but I wouldn’t go all that way for a Chinese meal. Now value for money, I am not sure, as I have not much experience of Paris Hotels but it did seem expensive to me. Even so I would recommend it."
