“Not my coup de coeur...”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 February 2012

Hotel de Charme seems appropriated at the first look. It’s a charming little hotel with a lovely tiny lobby once you have passed the romantic blooming entrance. And for a Parisian hotel the staff is quite lovely too. But the fairytale stops there.... When awarded a room, you have to squeeze in their shabby tiny elevator and/or climb noisy wooden stairs to squeeze into your shoebox room. The decoration is tappe à l’oeuil (canopy, vivid colours…) but the underneath is not really clean and worn out. Beddings are horrible old and saggy. The bathroom is poorly renovated and mine was dirty with only one cheap little piece of soap. Impossible to get into the room without dragging your bags behind you or shoving them first in. Furthermore I really don’t imagine how a person sized 14plus will made it through the tiny corridor leading to the bed (No offence, I’m a tall 12-14 and I had already my trouble). Don’t bring more than you negligee as their “wardrobe” is a small alcove. And don’t go shopping, there’s no room for extra bags. Well then there’s what makes about 60 % of your room: your tiny bed. Mine stood one side against the wall, leaving you as little as approx. 60 cm to the other side. The nightstand is a tablet fixed on the wall above your bed, watch your head! Once you’re installed in your un-cozy bed, you’ll have the pleasure the hear something rumble every 10 minutes or so… I must be the tube ore something, but in any case it’s annoying. And in the morning you’ll go the lovely yet tiny and oppressing cellar (all stone like a wine cellar) to take your tasty breakfast, but: as everything is so small you won’t have much choice at all. At least they have chouquettes, the tiny French pastry ball :)

So if you're petite or a dwarf... go for it. I mean I have seen worse especially in Paris. But for the rate they charge you'll find someting better, definitely!

This small hotel is conveniently located near ESMA (5 minutes walk) but I would recommend you to chose another stay! We got the preferential rate (160 EUR!) and it’s not worth it, and my office refrains from booking this hotel anymore.

Dear Madam,

Thank you for posting your comments on Tripadvisor. I was,however, very sorry to learn your disappointment with your room. I understand that you found your room small, our classic rooms are the smaller in size, we have other kinds of rooms biggest, superior rooms (18m2) Deluxe rooms (25m2) and our Junior suite (35m2). Our goal is to ensure our customers enjoy the most pleasant stay possible and we are always available at reception in order to solve any issues that arise.

Concerning the breakfast choice, our breakfast includes unlimited beverages (coffe tea, hot chocolat,milk, fresh jus) patisseries, confectionery, bread, jam, marmelade, nutella, hooney, cereals, yoghurts, french cheeses, chacuterien (cooked ham, spiced sausage, parma ham, ...) boled, scrambled and fried eggs, fresh fruits, salad fruit, nuts and dried fruts, ...Of course, our breakfast room is a cellar convert in a breakfast room and it is not very big but we offer a really complet breakfast.

We hope that overall you had a good time in Paris.
We would be delighted to see you again at our hotel in the future.

Sincerely,

Sarah Lauferon - Owner
Silvia- Front Desk Manager
Anna and Giusy - Reception Desk

“Great weekend getaway”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

We stayed 2 nights at the hotel over the weekend and had a great time.

Location - great location, right beside the metro (though you could feel it slightly in our ground floor room), and beside Les Invalidades and a short walk from the Eiffel tour - so very handy. And the location beside the metro meant it took just over 25 minutes to get there from the Eurostar arriving into Gare du Nord.

Hotel - room was very nice, nothing like the plain white of a business style hotel so a nice difference to the hotels I would normally stay in. There was also a steam room that the staff were very helpful about turning on for us with 30 minutes notice and supplying all sorts of oils and scents - great after a long day walking around the city.

Staff - very helpful about everything to do with the hotel, very friendly and always had our key ready as we walked in the door (nice benefit of a small hotel!).

Only downside was the price - as mentioned before here it is not a cheap hotel but we got a special offer so it was cheaper than their normal price so slightly better value for money.

I will be recommending it to friend visiting Paris in the coming years though, great place to stay and relax.

“Keep in Mind this is only 3 stars..”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 January 2012
5
people found this review helpful

I should have been a little more observant because three stars is just that...
Paris is full of deals in January, and I should have been a little more careful in choosing my hotel, 230 euros is not cheap at this time of the year, I love Invalides for me its my spot, I usually rent an apartment and use this as a base, this trip it was only 2nights and in a fanciful moment in Summer I walked past this hotel, and the french doors were open on a high floor, a wonderful romantic sight of fresh white linen and muslin curtains...reality was another thing altogether.
The hotel is tired...I requested a deluxe room and I had read somewhere that room number 2 was very nice...well that was a mistake..the room was large by any standards..with a fireplace (ornamental) the decoration was old and dated, no english channels at all on the TV, and paper thin walls, the room next door held a family of 5 all loud and boisterous who made sure when they arrived home late at night they sang and talked into the small hours.
The entrance to the hotel has 5 or so steps up, then a set of double doors, our arrival from Nice at 10PM was a struggle, my young daughter and I trying to struggle up the steps with our luggage..no one to help..the staff were friendly enough, and we found a bottle of champagne in our room, which was a nice gesture but not something I would drink with a child, we had to order some water as soon as we arrived, none was in the room...I love the location, its walking distance to so many attractions...would I stay in this hotel again...No, there are so many great hotels to choose from in Paris a three star hotel at this price level in the off season is not a good choice.

Room Tip: I was on the ground floor, would definitely not recommend this room,maybe they are nicer, higher up...

Dear Madam,

Thank you for sharing your experience at Latour-Maubourg with TripAdvisor readers. I am terribly disappointed with your critics. Our goal is always to make the stay of our guests as much pleasant as possible!
I was surprised to read that you find our hotel tired and noisy. We would prefer to find a solution during your stay as we always do with our guest. Unfortunately, you never pass comments on your dissatisfaction at the reception.

For information, all our televisions have English chanels. If you couldn't find it, you could contact the reception from your room, just calling number 9, at any time, we are always delighted to help you.
Concerning the room next yours, we never held five persons in a room. We accept maximum three people in our Deluxe rooms and Junior Suite (our bigger categories), we are really sorry if the room close yours were boisterous but in this case, you can call the reception as well, to solve the problem.

We offer a little bottle of champagne with macarrons at the arrival for all Deluxe rooms reserved as welcome present. We couldn't know that you traveled with your young daugther, you never informed us about that in your reservation, I regret if you dindn't see the minibar in your room.

As follows your arrival is concerned, We are dispointed that nobody helps you with your luggage but from the reception we couldn't see outside when our guests arrive, nevertheless you can always aks for help. The reception is at your disposal for all such of problems and information.

I hope that overall you had a good time in Paris

I hope that you will return give us a chance to change your mind about our charming romantic hotel.

Best Regards,

Mme LAUFERON Sarah: Owner

Great location, close to all the amenties without being too noisy. This hotel is stylish, modern and full of character. A refreshing change compared with some of the big chains. The reception staff were particulary helpful throughout my stay and made some helpful recommendations for seeing the more unusual tourist spots in Paris.

Have stayed here about a dozen times over the past decade. Despite changed ownership, the hotel remains a gem: the location is unbeatable, the accommodations are very comfortable, the ambiance is superb, the staff is very attentive. I do plan to return often.
