I staid for a rather long time, which is sufficient to judge the hotel, whether the cleaning is done sporadically, the noise levels, overall level of comfort. The room was very clean, and by that i mean - squeaky clean. In Paris it is quite a bit of a hit and miss, so this was definitely good. The bed was comfortable as well. These two things combined are probably the most important aspects.

The room was very small and a bit awkward to get in (the built-in wardrobe is sharing space with the door. It is fine for a short stay, but for prolonged stays it can get a bit annoying. I staid 3 weeks. The hotel is often booked for large tourist groups, including teenagers, so you can guess how wild the noise levels can be at those nights.

Just returned from a delightful 5-night stay at Villa Montparnasse and couldn't be happier with my choice. The hotel's location proved to be absolutely perfect for exploring Paris, with the Denfert-Rochereau metro station literally a 3-minute walk away. This was especially convenient as it connects directly to the RER B line that goes straight to Charles de Gaulle Airport (took us about 35 minutes door-to-door when departing). What truly made this hotel special was the charming neighborhood. The Rue Daguerre, a vibrant pedestrian street just around the corner, became our go-to spot for meals. This lively market street is lined with bakeries, cheese shops, wine merchants, and intimate bistros where we enjoyed some of our best meals in Paris. Although here I have to highlight particularly the little boulangerie at the Metro entrance, which quickly became part of our morning routine. Our room on the 2nd floor was clean, and although petite (typical for Paris), very well-designed and comfortable. The highlight was definitely opening the curtains each morning to reveal a picture-perfect view of a stunning art nouveau building directly across the street. The ornate balconies, decorative ironwork, and classic Parisian architectural details made even a quick glance out the window feel magical. At sunset, the golden light reflecting off the building's facade created a breathtaking scene I found myself photographing repeatedly. For travelers looking to experience authentic Paris away from the tourist crowds while maintaining easy access to all the major attractions, Villa Montparnasse offers the perfect balance. The staff were consistently helpful and spoke excellent English. I'll definitely return on my next Paris adventure.

Great location, felt like a safe area, bed was comfortable and enjoyed the choice in the breakfast

On checking in I was asked to give them a card so they could put through a 50 euro sale in case I decided to use the mini bar. I felt this was unnecessary and explained I wouldn't be using the mini bar anyway. I'm addition, I was staying there at the end of my trip and using a card I had put money in to pay in euros. If I allowed them to do this I would have no money for meals for my last day there. This seemed a very old fashioned practice based on the minority of people who might take advantage, but I feel most people are more honest and maybe they should review their policy or have a mini bar that you would need to scan your card to use. After a bit of discussion I was eventually given permission for them not to put through a sale on my card for the 50 euros.

Amazing Hotel, Staff & Location I have just returned from my trip to Paris, staying at the Villa Montparnasse Hotel (June 2024). The hotel itself has a classic and interesting style. I had asked for a city view room in my booking and the staff went out of their way to give me what I wanted. It actually had a double aspect view and was even more spectacular than I had expected – simply fabulous! The whole atmosphere during my stay was very comfortable and all staff without exception (manager, reception, breakfast and cleaning), were welcoming, friendly and ensured I had everything I needed. In addition, the hotel is in a strategic location for metro and airport connections via Denfert-Rochereau, which is very near the hotel. There are also useful shops and restaurant / cafes in the area. I highly recommend this hotel, it was all amazing value for money and I will definitely go back on my next trip. In fact, I am planning it already!

Everything was great!

We could see the Eiffel Tower from balcony at night. Area very typical French without lots of tourists. Two mins walk was a produce market street with small supermarkets, cafes and resturants and the oldest chocolate shop in Paris (1761). Convienient 5 min walk to metro and RER main line to airport. Could buy tickets at both places. Very kind staff. Small fridge in our room. Loved old style decor.

Would like a kettle in the room as I drink tea. There was a coffee maker however.

Friendly, informative, and accommodating staff. We enjoyed our superior room with a city view and balcony.

We liked the traditional decor in our room (that’s one of the reasons we chose Villa Montparnasse - we wanted to the room to feel Parisian, not like a generic hotel room anywhere in the world), but the fixtures could use an upgrade. The bathtub looked a little beat up, was high off the ground, and could be hard for an older or injured person to get in and out of.

If you are looking for something simple, easy and accessible this is the place for you (especially if you’re a solo traveler)! The hotel and rooms are definitely way older but I think this is what made it so charming. There are a lot of comments saying they needed more in the breakfast but I thought it was good especially to getting your day started. Neighborhood was quiet, charming and close to all - and walking distant to restaurants. Cherienne (I hope I’m spelling her name correctly) was an absolute angel - so personable and available to requests. Would definitely stay here again!

I wish we could have stayed longer! Our group had 3 rooms, one junior suite on the 7th floor, and two deluxe doubles on the 5th and 6th floors. The woman who checked us in was delightful, and the hotel's director showed us to our room to explain the light switches. Very well-appointed and beautifully decorated in historical fashion. The elevator was delightful and speedy. Breakfast was included. Hard to beat the location, steps from the Denfert-Rochereau station, with a wonderful market just a block over on Rue DaGuerre. We asked the front desk for dinner recommendations and they made reservations for us at Maison Peret--wonderful evening, and We will stay here again!

Nothing!

The location is really wonderful. It is situated in a very nice area that is quite neat and close to some good restaurants (15 min walk). It is also very close to the metro so getting anywhere is very simple with one or two metro lines. The staff was very helpful with any questions and we really enjoyed our room that had a cute balcony. It was perfect for our stay (which was just two days).

In general, I was happy with everything. Our bathroom was not necessarily state of the art and was a tad worn down, but it still worked properly.

Both the reception and dining room staff were very helpful and polite. The hotel itself is quite cozy and nice, not that noise. The breakfast were perfect for us

Sometimes cleaning service refilled the water, but mostly we were left with an empty bottle. Plus the dust wasn’t wiped off from the nightstands, unfortunately
