Hotel Lutetia, Paris

Paris|1.73km from Paris Observatory
What else would you do on a wet, blustery, rainy March afternoon in Paris, but pamper yourself with a leisurely high tea at the wonderful Lutetia Hotel? My daughter and I booked a 3pm slot and having deliberately foregone lunch, we arrived hungry & right on time. We were seated immediately by a very efficient & kind hostess beneath the highly decorative glass roof in Le St-Germain and ordered the set afternoon tea menu for 65€ with Blue of London tea for me and a delicious thick hot chocolate for her. Our drinks arrived promptly and we chatted as we waited for the pièce de résistance: 3 savoury and 7 sweet items. After another 35 minutes of waiting, our stomachs finally stopped rumbling. Obviously chef patissier Nicolas Guercio's creativity wowed us, especially the Crab with yuzu sansho, daikon infused with grapefruit on the savoury side, while the Pineapple and green cardamom sorbet vied with the Scones clotted cream and raspberry jam (memories from my childhood!) on the sweet side. What wowed us much less was the fact that we were asked to vacate our table at 4:50pm! Not only had we waited 40 minutes to actually eat our afternoon tea, but now we were being rushed out after an hour and 10 minutes! Nowhere on the website was there mention that you have under 2 hours to consume your afternoon tea. So future afternoon tea amateurs, beware, there's no such thing as a leisurely afternoon tea at the Lutetia!

Hotel Aviatic
3.8/536 Reviews
We recently stayed in this hotel as we were having renovations in our apartment. The first thing we noticed was the natural and warm professionalism of the lady on the front desk. Some people are just perfect for working with the public, and it was the case here. Always a natural smile, and ready to help or answer any queries without any hesitation. There is no lift in the hotel, and the stairs are very narrow,which made it a bit complicated with a large suitcase. The lady on the desk offered to help, but we managed. The room was newly renovated, and it was quite small, but this is par for the course in Paris. It had a window to a charming courtyard which was so incredibly quiet, we were able to sleep with the window open without any problems. The sliding door on the bathroom was quite a surprise but we soon got used to it. It was the first time we had stayed in a hotel where there was already a good, strong fan in the room upon our arrival, which was necessary as it was quite warm. The lady who was working in the breakfast room sometimes seemed a bit overwhelmed, especially on our last day, when it was very busy and she was working alone. The gentleman on the front desk as we were leaving was very friendly and professional too. All in all I would like to thank to thank the staff for their warm welcome and help. Keep up the good work ;)
Hotel du Lion

The location is very good, right next to the Denver Rose station on the RER B line, 2 minutes walk, the room is small, the family room for three is fine, the price is a little higher, the service is good, the bathroom is not big, single is enough, opposite the MONOPRIX supermarket there are McDonald's, chinese restaurants, subway lines 4/6, near the monuments of the tombs of paris, it is recommended.
Hotel du Midi Paris Montparnasse
4.1/589 Reviews
I chose this hotel because I was going to Denver Roslow Station the next day. Every inch of land in Paris, the hotel is small and exquisite, very close to the subway station. This time I live alone in the single room in the corner. The room is relatively small, but on the whole it is clean and tidy. The air-conditioning is great. I feel safe by myself. The young lady at the front desk and the black uncle are very enthusiastic. There are many cafes and bars next to the hotel, with the atmosphere of Paris. The croissants from Paul's bakery next door are very delicious. A cup of coffee is a croissant for breakfast.
Villa Montparnasse

Hello, I’ve spent a week in this hotel, and I would warmly recommend this hotel case of so many things. Firstly the location is amazing the interior of the hotel and rooms is so Frenchy, stuff there is so helpful and extremely kind 24/7 ready to help, (bars, restaurants, shops and the subway station) is like one or two minutes far away, if you like to walk as me you will need like 30 min to cafe de Flore or 10 min to the park Luxembourg which is, in my opinion, spectacular for the eyes and calms a lot. I'm so glad because I am found this hotel and will for sure come back there. Mercy Villa Montparnasse
Hotel Istria
3.8/540 Reviews
Small boutique style hotel in a quiet street in Montparnasse, very close to Raspail métro station. Shops, restaurants, street market and tourist attractions all within a 5-10 minute stroll. The hotel is quite historic, with links to the artists, poets and composers of early 20th century Montparnasse. 24hour front desk, lift, refreshments available for a small sum in the lobby. Our room was on the fourth floor overlooking the street, view of Montparnasse Tower. The room was small, as expected, but was freshly decorated, theme of Josephine Baker, (who probably didn't stay here!). It was perfectly clean, well equipped (kettle, minibar fridge, safe) , though only hangers for clothes and a very small desk/table. Bathroom also small, with shower and toilet. Very little room to turn round, put things, and not possible to sit straight on the loo. Some of the fittings were a little loose (loo and electric socket covers, and one of the bedside sockets didn't work). We mentioned this to front desk. Plenty of other sockets in working order, though. Bed was very comfortable, slept well. Altogether, a charming, convenient place to stay for your culture -themed city break.
Hotel Beauvoir
3.8/527 Reviews
Clean quaint little rooms. Friendly staff. Good location! Within walking distance to lots and the train station is across the street so easy access to everything. But- No face cloths and no toiletries. 1 plug in in the room (bring an adapter if you’re Canadian or American). Rooms were pretty small (2twin beds) and no where to put anything. Tub with hand held shower. The room our daughters were in smelled bad and the shower flooded the bathroom so they had to use ours. Breakfast wasn’t great and is overpriced. Beds a bit uncomfortable but pillows were good.
