Loved the location! it's right across the street from the Sorbonne Université Lettres, in the heart of the Latin Quarter, and mere steps from the Cluny Museum (where the Lady and the Unicorn tapestries are). Metro and RER stations are short distances away. The other thing I liked was that Victor Hugo's poem La Légende des siècles is woven into the carpet in the hallway outside the guest rooms.

The shower door leaked a bit in our room (25), and I would have appreciated having face clothes, but they are an exception in Europe. Coffee machine added chocolate to my morning cappuccino (quelle horreur!) but I discovered they had red fruit flavoured black tea, so I was quite content.

Directly next to the Sorbonne university. Close to all the major sightseeing spots. The room was very clean and modern. The staff was very friendly and helpful with questions we had. They also kept our luggage during the day after checking out.

The room was a bit small, especially the bathroom, (see photos) and the shower doors had gaps on bottom and sides causing the floor to flood. This needs to be improved. Also it was very difficult to put in and take out contact lenses as there was no space on the sink. Also brushing teeth you had to be careful not to hit your head on the shelf above.

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. I loved my room on the 6th floor. They offered me an upgrade for a small price which I very much appreciated. The room was warm, clean and sunny. The antique bathtub was such a nice treat. The area was quiet but not far from restaurants bars and attractions. I would stay here again and recommend this boutique hotel. Of course you'll read in the reviews that the rooms were small - it's Paris, that's all you get here unless you want to spend a LOT of money. I've stayed in many hotels in Paris and the size to cost ratio here is normal for this city.

Compact and beautiful room with all that you need in there. The toilet was small but functional with a shower that had a good water pressure (not the case always in France). The staff was really nice and helpful, always on a good mood. The location is great, right next to the Luxembourg garden, with a walking distance from the Latin quarter ant the city-center. RER B going up to CDG Airport and the Exhibition center in Villepinte leaves right next to this hotel. I really enjoyed my stay.

The room had quite dim lights that made it difficult to put your makeup on, but all in all a nice experience.

The staff really made the hotel in our opinion. They upgraded us free of charge for no reason which was a lovely surprise. They were so helpful in allowing us to drop off our luggage before check in opened, and letting us keep our bags at the hotel on the day we left after we’d checked out before we started our journey home. They also have 24 hour reception which is really reassuring and comforting. The location of the hotel is superb, the Notre Dame is in walking distance and there are metro stops a five minute walk away so you can easily get around. The area feels safe and it is very central, and there is a lot to do/places to eat around the hotel so if you didn’t fancy venturing too far you don’t have to.

Personally for me having basic amenities like coffee machines/kettle and teabags would have made a real difference. We were in a Superior room, however our beds were two single beds joined together which was fine, but it seems a bit strange a superior room doesn’t have a bigger double bed. It didn’t bother us but something to note.

The hotel lives up to its name - Design. The room was on the first floor overlooking the inner courtyard, so no great views, but very quiet, which is important if you're in the centre of Paris. The room was very comfortable and clean. I like the fact that they respect when you ask them not to do up the room, and they don't drop lots of towels at the door. It shows that they really care for the environment and not wash thing unnecessarily. I would definitely stay here again. The hotel felt very safe.

The walls are not very soundproof, but that's quite normal in Paris.

In a city that offers thousands of competing accommodation options, it was a brilliant decision to stay here. The location is ideal for arrival by air or train (just a couple minutes walk from Luxembourg station, so very easy connections). Luxembourg Gardens is along the next road along with a good selection of cafes and restaurants on all sides. It's opposite the Sorbonne on a peaceful road -- no loud traffic or crowds. It's a compact hotel and room, just like all other Parisian accommodation, but it's light and appealing. The room and ensuite had very good quality facilities. All spotlessly clean, as you'd expect. We will definitely consider staying here again next time.

We liked everything.

The location is ideal, very close to several sites and museums and easy walking distance to metro, RER and the Seine. A wide variety of restaurants surrounds the area. The room was clean and well appointed, with a comfortable bed.

We arrived later on a Friday and the TV in the room was supposed to give us our wifi password, but it didn't work. Despite best efforts by the desk staff it would not work. The technician was not in until the Monday so they provided a guest password for wifi and comped us a breakfast.

The location of the hotel was perfect for my stay and convenient for public transport (route 38 bus from Gard du Nord). The bed was super comfy for me and the bedroom and shower room were spotless, All the staff I met were welcoming and informative, I would definitely stay again.

I would have liked a kettle and tea making facilities in the room - maybe I should buy a travel kettle for future visits! I didn't take breakfast on the second day because it seemed expensive for the choice available - there are lots of places nearby to eat or buy food. Just another thing to note is that at the time I stayed the lift is only a 2 person lift at the most - especially if you have luggage, so be prepared for a wait if the lobby is busy with people . Or then again you could be a super slim family and it would be super cozy!

The location was amazing for us! We were able to walk to a lot of the activities/shopping/etc that we had planned. The staff at the hotel was very friendly and helpful.

The room felt a little "old", it wasn't bad just not as fresh and vibrant as we expected and its definitely on the smaller side. We really only used it for sleeping and getting ready- not hanging out.
