Artus Hotel - Paris 48.85335, 2.33619

During my recent vacation, the Artus Hotel contributed greatly to my enjoyment of Paris. The Hotel is located in a fantastic area, situated in the middle of a throbbing cultural hub, and reached easily by the Metro/RER. Its concierge also made my stay relaxing and comfortable (especially since I do not speak French!). So in closing: walking distance to major attractions, modern décor, and accommodating staff.

Good Things: the Artus Hotel is well located. It's only 5 minutes walk from Odeon metro station, which is itself about 20 minutes on a direct line (i.e. no changes) from Gare du Nord. Once there, you can walk to many places of interest for sightseeing, and there is no lack of choice of restaurants and interesting shops and/or street sights. This was my 2nd stay there (the 1st being many years previously) and I would stay again, subject to planning a few things better (see the next paragraph). The Reception staff could not have been nicer or more helpful. The room and the rest of the hotel were very clean. Things To Improve: First, ask for a large room that is not on the ground floor - the reason is that the ground floor rooms are small and look out directly on to the street. Secondly, the beds are shorter than average and (even at 6 foot tall) I was hanging over the foot. Third: the rooms don't come with bath robes. Fourth: I was surprised that that the breakfast buffet (which was fresh, but limited) cost Euro 15 - the next time I would eat out instead. Finally: check out (at 11:30) was a little early. Subject to those caveats, I would stay there again.

Perfect location - just off St Germain in Rive Gouche. Nice room - having bathroom "seperated" from main living area made it difficult for father/daughter duo - would be fine for other "couples". Staff was attentive and helped us with Normandy reservations, Moulin Rouge Reservations, .... Close to #10 Met station (<1 block) other stations w/in 3 blocks. Musee D'Orsay: 5 blocks Musee Louvre: 8 blocks Notre Dame: 6 blocks Seine: 3 blocks St Germain: 1 block.

Hotel staff were extremely helpful in providing early check-in and arranging ground transportation to and from the airport. Gregoire and Sanjay, in particular, were extremely accomodating and helpful. Additionally, the location could not be better. I highly recommend the Artus Hotel and plan to stay there again.

Very pleased with our stay. Staff was very professional and helpful. Room was very clean, comfortable and quiet considering we are in a very busy section of Paris. Cafes and shops right at our doorstep. We'll definitely come back to this hotel again.

The wonderful thing about the Artus Hotel was that the staff really cared about making my stay the best that it could be. Sanjay greeted me warmly when I checked in, and gave me very good advice about which places to visit and where to eat. He even went to the trouble of printing out information from the Internet to help make my trip more enjoyable. (This was completely of his own accord.) I really appreciated everything he did for me. He is not just a great concierge, he is a mensch.

The hotel was delightful and in a super location. The people were extremely helpful, far beyond the call of duty and in Paris, that IS SOMETHING!

Outstanding location, great neighborhood, super friendly and helpful staff Night concierge made us an espresso while we waited for a 5:00 a.m. taxi to the airport. Day concierge (Sanjay) made dinner reservations for us at 2 lovely restaurants.

I used to love this hotel, and wouldn't have reviewed it for fear of too many people knowing about it. After a refurbishment and change of ownership, I don't feel so positive. Carpets are a bit tired, the new bathrooms badly planned, and our initial room was next to a lift shaft and had a toilet door that was stuck open. We were moved after a complaint. Breakfast the next morning came without the accompanying bread, which had to be resent for. Please try harder.

Hotel Artus is in the best location you'd want for St Germain, completedly renovated and above all Sanjay the manager and staff are very helpful and nice. I'll definitely come back and book again through hotels.com

My wife and I had a quick visit to Paris and stayed at the Artus Hotel. The hotel was renovated somewhat recently. Rooms are small, but furnishings are very nice, contemporary, and comfortable. Bathroom fixtures are modern and clean. The hotel staff was very helpful in recommending restaurants and other activities. There was no shortage of things to do right near the hotel. It was in walking distance to major destinations in Paris - and was about 1 block from a metro stop - and 1 block from a train station. I would stay there again.

The hotel's locations is perfect for walking to all sights in Paris & convenient to the Metro.Room size was reasonable & rooms were comfortable.Staff spoke English & were helpful. Sanjay was the most friendly & made an effort to introduce himself.Breakfast was not included & listed as 15eu, so never had it; there's a wonderful bakery just steps away where you can get fresh items to go or sit & eat.Plenty of nightlife in the area.Rooms are quiet though.Room 100 does look out on the alley with the trash cans right next to the window though.If you're a light sleeper or want to sleep late, make sure you get a different room.Sanjay did move me to a room with a nice Paris view since I had requested an upper level room prior to my arrival & the staff at checkin didn't seem to realize this.Had access to a computer in the lobby at no charge.Overall, I would definitely recommend this hotel.

A really nice place topped with ease of access to nightlife and sights

Hotellets værelser er meget små. Man går således direkte ind i sengen når man åbner døren. Samtidig så skal man ikke være højere end 170, da sengene er meget små, selv for en queen size. Hotellet ligger godt og de er flinke i receptionen.

Moderne og trivelig lite hotell i Latinerkvarteret. Topp service!

Chambre un peu petite
