Hôtel de la place des Vosges

The location is perfect, well inside the Marais. The room was clean and well designed.

The room was in the 5th floor, and the staff, unkind in general, did not mention that the elevator is only between the 2-4th floors, which meant we had to climb two floors alone. The staircase is tiny and they didn't offer any assistance with the luggage. The room was rather small. Overall, the great location alone does not justify the prices at all.

The interior design is a unique mix of old and new, with beautiful bathrooms, well lit and use noble materials like marble, chrome and mirrors. Although there is no Air-Con, the ceiling fan is excellent. The bed linen is comfortable and the rooms are cleaned thoroughly each day, with fresh towels changed daily. The location could not be better, with nice bistros across the street and right in the best place of Le Marais for shopping, eating, drinking and quickly walking over to St Germain. Family-owned, all personnel is attentive and caring and made our stay a delight.

My friend and I booked a Superior Double room with two separate beds. Our room indeed had two beds next to each other, but the room could not be smaller. There is a round garden table on one side with one metal garden chair but no bedside table on the other side of the beds so you have to put all your things on the floor. There is no safe to keep valuables such as passports or jewellery, so bear in mind that you will have to store them inside your luggage and use a lock. There is no fridge to keep cold drinks (because there is no space for anything else apart from the beds in the room). We asked what the word "Superior" meant (instead of a normal double room) and we were shown another room that had a master bed the size of a double bed (how can 2 people sleep here if they are tall and sizeable?). So even if you travel with your partner, choose the Twin bed room. So much bigger. I will stay here again. This is not a negative view, but it did concern me that the photos show other bedrooms where the space is ample and there are even desks. The photos showing the Superior double do not show you the "end of the beds". That's because the wall literally starts right there and you have to almost walk sideways to pass through. If you come to Paris for showing and basically being out all day, this is the perfect hotel.
