Nicely refurbished hotel with polite personnel and good location in the district of Marais; as all of the hotels in this area, and maybe in all Paris, the rooms are small by reasonably designed; the bathrooms though are surprisingly comfortable, with the only exemption the very small washbasin which is only for hands washing – if you try to wash...

I have stayed all over Paris from expensive 5 star chains (for work) to basic budget hotels in the Marais. This is the best option that I have come across if you want: 1. to stay in the Marais / gay district 2. are on a budget of c100 - 130 euros 3. want something vaguely modern. My room was... More

Great location. Clean room. Comfy bed. Very small room (even for Paris standard). Very noisy. We can hear every car that drive by and people talking on the street till the wee hour. Thank goodness we moved to a very spacious and quiet apartment after two nights of staying here. More

This hotel had been recommended to us by friends, and we were shocked when we arrived. The carpets throughout the hotel are filthy (so much so that we didn't want to walk on them barefoot), the drains in the bathroom did not work (so the shower floods if you stay in it for more than 2 minutes), and the noise...

Booked five nights at Hotel des Archives for May 2010. The place is severely overdue for renovation. Water damage was apparent everywhere in our room, which smelled of mildew. Rooms are cramped even by Paris standards with literally no space to unpack - there were maybe 6 inches of hanging space in ours, a couple tiny shelves, and nowhere even... More

The hotel is located in central Paris in a very hip and trendy neighborhood surrounded by cafes, shops, tasty bakeries, a post office and is in walking distance from the museum of modern art. The...

My husband and I were looking for comfort in a nice area and that's what we got. It wasn't too "budgety", but just right for us. Hotel rooms in Paris are generally small anyway, but we were upgraded to a family room which had an extra living room so it was perfect. Staff are very friendly and the area is... More

Its a great hotel for the budget concious. After reading about it here on TA, I decided to give it a try just for one night. I was impressed by the attitude of the staff (very accomodating and forthcoming with information about the room and nearby attractions). Upon entering my room I felt it was very small (and I'm not...

My brother & I booked a twin room for Euros-183/night for 2 nights. When we arrived we were upgraded to family room- 2 separate bedrooms. The rooms were small as expected of boutique hotel. The marble bath is BIG though. As I'm from New York - the price is okay....do not eat at the hotel's cafe, food is so-so. More
