We LOVED this property. It was a classic boutique hotel and we enjoyed every minute of it. The place is better than what was written. It was close to everything. We had 2 rooms and 1 room did have a very clean bathroom (with brand new tiles in the shower area) while the other bathroom did not. The old tiles did have stains on the grout line, but I’m not sure if it’s dirty or just old tiles. It looks like the hotel is trying to keep as much of the old charm as possible. It is listed as a 3 star hotel but I thought it was way better than that. We really enjoyed it. I would definitely stay here again.

The night person, an older gentleman, can be set in his ways. He reprimanded us for using wine glasses for water since there wasn’t any water cups left. Maybe it’s just the Persian way, they’re not exactly known to be friendly. Other than that, the place was perfect and all the other staff was great.

From the moment that my son and I arrived at Les Tournelles we felt we’d hit the jack pot with our hotel choice. Anwar gave us a warm, wonderful and efficient welcome and we were able to refresh ourselves after our travels in the beautiful guest lounge, with lovely cold water (with orange slices), tea/coffee also available. Over our busy 3 day stay in Paris, the hotel became a highlight to return to after our sightseeing. It felt calm and comfortable. We loved the bedroom decor and the beds were supremely comfy. We slept so well! We enjoyed breakfast in the atmospheric breakfast room, which really revealed the history of the hotel building. Anwar was really exceptional in helping us to plan metro stops for various sights we wanted to visit in Paris. He is such an asset to the hotel. Plus I have to mention the location, for us it was absolutely perfect to be in the heart of Le Marais. Just around the corner from beautiful Place des Vosges, which is wonderful to visit at all times of the day and simply sit and take it all in. There is fantastic shopping in the area; not to mention incredible museums, great restaurants and it’s just a very nice area of Paris to explore and also not far to walk from Ile Saint-Louis/Norte Dame. As you can tell, we highly rate this hotel and would definitely recommend it and we really look forward to going back to stay at Les Tournelles and exploring the area further.

Having to leave. Would loved to have stayed longer at Les Tournelles.

The staff was amazing--really friendly and helpful. The hotel was in a perfect location--you're right in the heart of where you want to be. I walked from my hotel everywhere. I explored Le Marais (rad neighborhood and where I'd stay again). I walked to the latin quarter and St. Germain (way busier, way more cars, way more tourists.. still beautiful but I'd rather stay elsewhere). You're a couple of blocks from the Seine and I'd get up in the morning and run to the Eiffel Tower. It's about 4 miles one way but a really nice way to start your morning. You're right next to the Place des Vosges, which is a really beautiful park where I hung out and read my book. No tourists there really. And your about one block away from Chez Janou, which is an amazing and highly hyped (and worth it) French cafe (make reservations, which you can do by just stopping by earlier in the day). My room was small, but I was traveling alone so it was no big deal and I was more than happy with it. The room was on the top floor and had French doors that opened out into the city with a little balcony which was really, really pleasant. I think when I booked the room it was about $175 a night, and that felt like a good price for what you got. I'd stay here again, absolutely. The breakfast is 14 Euros.. which isn't bad considering what things cost in Paris and you can eat until you're stuffed. It's a standard European continental breakfast.. hardboiled eggs, deli meat, cheeses, muesli, yogurt, etc. but it was good. The dining room is in the basement and it's really cool. All timbered and with stone arches and the old well from.. however long ago. It's an old building. I'd fill up on food and coffee and then wander around the city. Because I'm a typical American, Nespresso shots don't really do it for me so I'd inevitably end up at a bakery shortly thereafter to grab a croissant and an americano.

We have stayed here before and also recommended the hotel to friends, and on this return visit, Les Tournelles continues to be a wonderful little boutique hotel in the best part of Paris. Rooms are quaint and nicely appointed, staff is super friendly and helpful, and you can walk out of the door and easily walk to almost any part of Paris most visitors want to go to. But just out of the door you are in the Marais and a few steps from the Bastille neighborhoods. We will return and continue to recommend to others.

No complaints.

The hotel is very comfortable and clean. The bed was very comfortable and the staff were friendly and welcoming. The area was lovely and felt very safe and with the 24 hour reception it was perfect for myself and my daughter. The lounge area is a great added extra and also very comfortable. The offering of tea and coffee and cake every afternoon is generous and the honestly bar gives a lovely relaxed feeling.

Our room was very small and looked out at a wall. It was fine for us but I think it would have felt too cramped and claustrophobic for two adults given the small size and no natural light.

Location: Outstanding! Most everything we wanted to see and do was practically within walking distance. Room: The small size of the room was the only minor issue. It was large enough so that it was livable, however. Breakfast: Excellent! Good selection of food items. The lady maintaining the food counter was extremely friendly and helpful.

The size of the room was a little small, but I can't say I didn't like it. The room was great in all other respects.

Wonderful Hotel in a wonderful location. We were a party of 4 staying in 2 rooms. Leaving the key every time we left was definitely NOT a problem nor did we feel it was an inconvenience to the staff (as a previous reviewer wrote). The 24hour/per day staffing by the gentlemen hosts in the front room is an amazing element of Les Tournelles. The timing of our stay allowed us to get to know Carlos the best. Carlos always made us feel welcome as he answered our questions and provided guidance about many aspects of the local neighbourhood, restaurant recommendations, etc. The cozy lounge where we could have some down time and a glass of wine in the early evening after a long day of walking and before going out for dinner was a lovely amenity. The ladies in the breakfast room were always friendly & accommodating with morning coffee. The cleaning staff did a wonderful job every day in freshening our rooms and keeping the entire hotel sparkling and inviting. We WILL return to Les Marais and Les Tournelles very soon.

Absolutely no suggestions for improvements. Please continue to do what you do so well.

What a delightful hotel! The staff were all amazing, the room was cosy and had personality, the WiFi was excellent (important, as I worked from there), and the location couldn't be a better base! I'll definitely be returning next time I'm in Paris!

I don't think the breakfast was worth €14 unfortunately - was pretty limited (small pastry and cold cut spread). Could get more value and quality from any of the excellent boulangeries in the area.

Small rooms, to be expected, but very clean & very nicely decorated. Welcome was pleasant. Plenty hot water. Very quiet... even though road side. No internal hotel noise. Very comfortable bed. Lovely area to walk around, loads of cafes & restaurants & shops. 3 mins from a supermarket. 5 mins walk to metro line 1 taking you to Louvre & more.

Tiny bit of black mould in shower. No iron or kettle/tea making equipment.

The breakfast was good (adequate), although it could benefit from more variety. The lady in the breakfast room was very helpful. Overall, rather small room but very clear and quiet, at a good place. Easy check in and check out.

The breakfast is served from 7.30am, which is a bit of an issue for someone from the eastern Europe and/or someone who wants to start day early. 7.00am or 6.30am could be better.
