What a find! I needed to book a last-minute stay in Paris during a work stopover; as I used to live in the city I haven't booked a hotel in years, but this time around, I wasn't able to stay with friends, so I had to find something suitable without being too expensive. How lucky I was to find this! The location is pretty much unbeatable as a central hub for exploring Paris, and the closest Metro station is also the RER B line that takes you directly to Charles de Gaulle airport or to Gare du Nord - so very handy for travellers. It's in a very safe area, too, by the Sorbonne so if you're new to the city or a little worried, you'll feel very comfortable. The rooms are stylish and modern with thoughtful touches like a great little workspace and some books; the cafe and bookshop downstairs is really wonderful and has so obviously been put together carefully and with love, and there are a number of special pop-ups that happen at the hotel, like an open music studio during my stay, which I unfortunately didn't have time to explore. Every little bit of the hotel has been thought about - the lift has its own little constellation of lights and the stairs are used as a small exhibition space for artists. To find a room in a place like this for such a low price really does feel like such a victory, and I hope to visit again in two weeks' time when I'm back in the city. It'll be my go-to now whenever I need somewhere to stay.
