“Haven”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 February 2012 via mobile
2
people found this review helpful

I broke up with my French boyfriend and needed accommodation. Brittanique was my haven. It's more a guest house than a hotel, with a calm ambience, everything just works seamlessly: helpful staff as far as new travel arrangements and work documents were concerned, but perhaps most notably, my extended stay, twice at short notice, was accommodated by management, inspite of extremely heavy bookings. I didn't give them the reasons for my change of plans, the mere fact that i needed to extend was good enough reason for them to somehow juggle the capacity demand on rooms.
Rooms were scrupulously clean, and location is superb. It is in a quiet little street while the Metro station Chatelet is bustles below.

“Great hotel, fabulous location, can't believe it's only 3 star.”

We stayed at the Hotel Brittanique for three nights on our first trip to Paris, but wished we could have stayed for longer! The room was incredibly clean, had lots of storage space, a lovely view out onto a typical parisian street and even had a bowl of fresh fruit on arrival. We completely agree with the majority of reviews on here about the staff who were extremely helpful and the location was excellent. Only 10 minutes walk to the Louvre and Notre Dame. I definitely hope to return soon (maybe when it's a bit warmer:))

“Great Location and Staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 February 2012

Loved this place - the location was excellent and the room was very nice. A little on the small side, but very comfortable. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful - they recommended two restaurants to us, one was great and one was pretty bad. But there are a lot of little restaurants/cafes/bars nearby to explore. If you want to walk Paris and have easy access to the Metro, I'd definitely recommend this place.

Room Tip: Top floor has small balconies that were lovely.

“Quiet, comfortable hotel in great location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Given its location, right opposite the Chatelet theatre and therefore in the centre and an easy walk/metro from everywhere, this hotel is astonishingly quiet. I think it's because the rooms face onto a little cul de sac - though you wouldn't know that to look at the exterior.

Our room was pretty tiny - but Paris bedrooms always are if you dont pay a total fortune. It was well-appointed generally - and had an exceptionally comfortable bed (though see below) - with a fruit plate too which was nice...and robes which I love.

And there is a cosy lounge as well as the breakfast room which again is quite unusual. Plus the staff are helpful

Two criticisms: the bedside lamps were so poor, neither of us could see to read in bed - boring. Plus my particular hate: a plastic undersheet. I can't sleep on these at all -waking after an hour in a great puddle of sweat. So I always rip them off before getting into bed - which makes them wholly counterproductive. I'm not a baby or incontinent and do not expect to sleep on rubber. You can get perfectly good undersheets that don't have that.

Anyhow - two little quibbles but otherwise a lovely place to stay.

Room Tip: Ask for quiet one - maybe they all are

“Excellent Value for Money, Highly Recommend”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 February 2012

We stayed at Hotel Britanique from 28th-30th January 2012. The location is perfect for all of the major tourist sights. All major shops just around the corner but a very quiet neighbourhood, although it has bars and restaurants close by too. The Chatelet Metro Station is a 2 minute walk from the hotel. The hotel itself was excellent value for money, very pretty, extremely clean and well maintained to a high standard. The rooms were warm and inviting. The hotel staff were very helpfull and very knowledgeable on the sights and metro stops etc.
We both enjoyed our stay at Hotel Britannique and Paris is a fantastic city, will definitely be back.
I have never written a review before, this is just to express how impressed I was with the hotel!!
