“Great location and lovely view”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 February 2012

I stayed at the Hotel le Notre Dame during a weekend in Paris with my boyfriend. The hotel is stylish with unusual decor, which I loved. We had requested a room with a view and were allocated a room in the loft conversion, which was very cosy! The room was perhaps a bit too small, with very limited storage space and a bathroom with a sloping roof (which meant you couldn't stand up and use the shower). We had a great view of the Notre Dame from our window though.

The location of the hotel was great and we walked to most places, but also made use of the Metro - the station was a couple of minutes' walk away. It was nice to escape to the peace and quiet of our hotel room as the streets outside were so busy. I would definitely recommend requesting a high level room as the traffic noise was deafening at ground level.

The staff were friendly and helped us with making a restaurant reservation.

All in all, I would recommend this hotel but it is on the expensive side considering the size of the rooms. You're paying for the view! It's romantic though, so worth it for a special occasion.

Room Tip: Request a high level room with a view.

“Romantic and just what we were looking for”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 February 2012

We loved this hotel. It was quirky, clean, romantic with great views. The rooms were small but the view of the cathedral made our stay! We asked for a view on the cathedral and a room higher up. It is a boutique style hotel and as it was for a special occasion the price was worth it! Location was good and there are a good few cafes near by. A little book shop nearby too was just lovely and it made it a little more fun as well as romantic.
I would definitely recommend this hotel even though it was a little pricey.

Room Tip: pay a little more and get a room with a view!

“You pay for the view”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 January 2012

Honestly it is in the tourist trap area. You should book an upper floor room with a decent view as the noise from the traffic junction on street level can be deafening.

You will have to carry your luggage upstairs, the rooms are small and we payed for the premium one, the staff were quite decent and you are very close to the metro and RER.

I would try a new hotel next time.

Room Tip: Higher floor and pay for the view or you really will be disappointed

“Quirky, cosy and perfectly placed”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 January 2012

people found this review helpful

This is a great hotel for couples who want to explore the city from a small boutique style hotel. It is a very busy corner, but we went in december so we didn't need to have the windows open so no problems with noise. The view of the cathedral and the river is fantastic, especially with the big Christmas tree outside. The metro station is right outside so exploring was easy. The only negative was that the decor needs a little bit of a retouch in places, but only a minor issue. There are some really nice restaurants within easy walking distance - just ask for the list on reception.

Room Tip: Ask for the corner room which has views in both directions at the top of the hotel

“Great View and Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 January 2012

people found this review helpful

We spent 6 nights here over the Christmas holiday, its location was so easy to get to from from the airport, just take the RER blue line and get off at the St. Michael/Notre Dame stop take the elevator to the street, turn right go 50 meters and you're at the door. It was the easiest getting from the airport to a hotel we've experienced.

The rooms are on the small side but the views and the bed (that was more comfortable than most hotels we've stayed at) more than made up for that.

The staff was wonderful, they cheerfully helped us with information and choices for our daily forays around the city and made calls to learn if places were open during the holiday.
