Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We loved our stay at the Lenox Montparnasse; we would stay again and recommend it to all of our friends. Staff was professional, friendly, and spoke fluent English. Room size was perfect for 2 people and came with a good sized TV, minibar, free coffee/tea, hair dryer, toiletries, and WiFi which worked well. Cleaning staff did an excellent job everyday. […] There is a beautiful space on the first floor to sit and sip drinks from their honesty bar. The hotel is conveniently located near 2 Metro stations, grocery store, bakery, cheese shop, and restaurants. The area seemed safe. We had a room on the 5th floor facing the back courtyard and it was quiet. You can print your boarding passes for your trip home at the front desk for free. Overall, an excellent stay and we look forward to going back! Read more

I am going back to Paris and am planning on staying again at the Lenox Montparnasse. My stay was flawless, The staff was warm, and my room cozy like home, my Parisian home! Orange blossom, juniper and citron are the scents that remind me of Paris due to the amazing toiletries in my room. The neighborhood had so many features, every need could be fulfilled […] nearby. Transportation was so easy with two train stations, and the RER within walking distance to go back to CDG. Looking forward to both Paris and the Lenox Montparnasse again! Read more

We loved our rooms, 60 and 69. They are the largest in the hotel. We had 3 in each room. Very close....a few doors away from a grocery store, bakery, 2 metro stops on line 4 or 6, crepe street. You can't beat this locaction. Staff was wonderful.

Would give 3.5 rating if available. Nice little hotel but a bit loud in the morning. Enjoyed the stay overall

Great location and chance to see a different part of Paris for a couple of days. Nervous at checkin because they could not find our name on the computer list of guests. However, our name was on the printed list. Not sure, maybe he did not understand our name and could not match it on the list. However, all turned out well and he offered us the house […] computer the last night there to print boarding passes. Price was great, and we love staying at these types of hotels as oppossed to big American chains when we go abroad! Read more

Room was slightly small but to be expected in Europe. Bathroom updated and very nice. Balcony in room was a nice touch. Bed not too comfortable. Very clean and easy access to Metro station. Free internet/computer in lobby was useful. Honesty bar in lobby was also handy. Staff was very helpful in providing directions and maps.

Hotel staff was veryyyy good. Hotel was clean and in a decent neighborhood. Rooms are tiny but guess that is a std in Paris. Metro station is very close and is very useful/convenient. But I would prefer to stay in Bastille area. 2 cons of the hotel : 1) Noisy street on weekends can be pain in night. 2) Hotel arranged for a cab that charged us 65Euros […] (cash only, fixed rate) to airport. No one bothered to mention this at hotel and cab driver told us in cab while we were half way to airport. PS : We came from airport in a metered taxi for 48Euros. So, always ask for a metered taxi.

The staff is very helpfull. They speak English, French & Spanish. They are always friendly. We got there before 2pm. They kept our luggage in a locked room & then they brought it to our room while we were having a snack at a nearby place. The location is great near to the subway M4 & M6. Our room was clean & neat. A very cute hotel.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The staff were all lovely and so happy to help with whatever we needed. The hotel itself is so cute and quaint, exactly what I pictured when I thought of a Parisian hotel, and made my first visit to Paris one to remember. The hotel is located within a couple blocks of 3 different metro lines which made getting around the city so easy. And the neighborhood […] is great, everything we needed was right on the block: restaurants/bars, a grocery store, butcher shop, bakery, fresh seafood, etc etc. I could go on. I loved this hotel so much and would definitely stay here again if / when we go back. Read more

Great location in Monparnasse district. Metro at the end of the street. Lots of cafes and restaurants close by. As with most European hotels the room was tiny but adequate. Nice "honor" bar and sitting area in lobby.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Although our Junior Suite only had two beds (we were expecting 3)..overall the experience was very good. Staff was very helpful and spoke English well. The location was perfect. Two Metro stations are 1 block away, and the neighborhood offered restaurants, bakeries and bars within a minute walk. Room was smaller but well appointed. I would go back and […] stay again.

I chose this location because of not only the reviews on this website but trip advisor as well. This was a phenomenal hotel. The staff were very helpful and friendly, the location was great, and the rooms were very comfortable. I highly recommend this hotel.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Stayed in one of the top floor suites. Wonderful! Large room with windows opening to courtyard. Best location for easy walking to restaurants and main streets. Love this area for feeling like you experience a bit of everyday life in Paris. Helpful front desk. This was our second time at this hotel and we will return.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We stayed three nights in this small and pleasant hotel with very friendly and helpful staff at the front desk. The room was small but clean and recently renovated, free wifi. Good value. Did not try the breakfast. We enjoyed our stay. Comfort of room is rated 4 due to its small size only, otherwise fives (superb) for this class of hotel.

Very goodlocation and friendly staff Super small rooms, but that is a standard in Paris hotels

Genuine Expedia guest review

The Lenox Monparnesse Hotel is a very nice boutique hotel just south and in walking distance of the Jardin du Luxenborge. As we understood, European hotel rooms are small in comparison to hotel rooms in the US, and in our experience this was the case. The hotel was clean and well cared for, and the staff were exceptionally helpful. Two Metro stations […] were a very short walk from the hotel, and shops and cafes of all description were readily accessible. Overall, we had a very enjoyable stay and would recommend this hotel when traveling to Paris. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

This getaway was a "Babymoon" for us, and we appreciated several things about this hotel. The service was great -- every one of the front desk staff we spoke to spoke perfect English. Our room was small, but comfortable. Our room had a little balcony which was really small but fun to step out on for a view of the street. The best thing is the location […] -- the hotel was right around the corner from a subway stop (Vavin), and there is a grocery store, bakery, and several restaurants on the street the hotel is on, or within walking distance. When we come back to Paris, we'll definitely look to stay here again! Read more

We were very glad we picked the Lenox as it is in a very good location with easy access to tour buses, the Metro and other neighborhoods by walking. It's a residential Parisian neighborhood and not at all touristy which is really nice. We found the hotel very clean, nicely decorated and the staff friendly and helpful. Be prepared for very small rooms, […] even by European standards (we have traveled extensively in Europe!). On arrival, one room was ready and one was not so we stored all our luggage (4 suitcases and 4 carry-ons) in the room and one person had to stand in the bathroom in order to accomodate luggage and 3 people standing in the room. Once suitcases on small ottoman and luggage rack, it was impossible to access the lovely small balcony. The hotel is on a noisy street and remember Paris is the one City with daily street cleaning! Also, we stumbled upon a wonderful open air market on Sat. & Wed's at the top of the street which was a feast for the senses! Montparnasse Blvd. is at the end of the block and can take you to the wonderful Cupola Restaurant, a must! Cabs are not so easy to access on the street so the hotel can call for one but you will pay for wait time which cost us 20 Euro's on top of the cost of the trip which gets very expensive. Also, check out the 56 fl. of Tour Montparnasse for incredible views of the City, especially at night. Read more

The staff was very friendly. The location is close to many restaurants, cafe's, bars, bakery's, etc. The rooms are tiny by US standards. The bathrooms and shower were cramp. There was significant noise every morning from delivery vehicles. Over Rated in general.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel is located in a great location nestled amongst local activities. Grocery, pharmacy and food within a minutes walk in any direction. Dont plan on sleeping in much as the doors banging shut is a real thing. The wifi does not reach the 6th floor so if wifi is critical then request second or third floor rooms, a simple 30 euro range extender would […] solve this issue so the hotel should impliment one. The Air France shuttle is a 10 minute walk on flat ground. This is not made clear on any map nor does the hotel have a hand draw map which i would highly recommend. The air france shuttle runs every 30 minutes and costs 17 euro per person. It took about an hour and 15 minutes on a Sunday morning. There are metro (subway) and bus connections at both ends of the street. The visite bus/metro pass is worthwhile however the museum pass is not unless you are staying enough days to hit many museums. Overall it was a great experience. Read more

We loved this hotel. The only drawback was the small size of the room but it was workable. The staff were extremely helpful and the location was fabulous.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Spent 5 nights at this hotel on the "Club Floor" and had a good stay. Staff was very nice and room came with lots of free perks like WiFi. Our room had nice sky view of back courtyard. Room was quiet and windows could be opened on nice days. Bathroom was large but only portion of tub was enclosed allowing just a small area to stand for showering without […] flooding the floor. More suited for baths than showers. I enjoy my showers so this was annoying to me. Other than that it was a good stay. Surrounding neighborhood was ok, not as nice as some others, but close to subways and central train station. Read more

This is a very nice small hotel, just a little off the tourist route, located in an active, safe neighborhood of shops and restaurants which appear to cater to young professionals. The staff is outstanding-- proficient in English and eager to be helpful. Public areas are very comfortable, Two metro stations are within a block. Rooms are quite small, […] but efficiently designed--bathrooms, A/C and sound proofing are good.. Read more

Great location, small rooms like most hotels in Paris, but clean and very helpful staff.

Genuine Expedia guest review

We were pleased with this hotel. It's location on a hill made for a healthy walk home each evening but when we were exhausted from a long days' walk it was easy to reach by trains, too. The multi-lingual staff was helpful and reasonably well-informed about the neighborhood. The room was comparable to the budget room from our first visit six years ago […] and at a similar cost and in the same neighborhood. The hotel is a 20 minute walk to the Eiffel Tower, 30 minutes from Notre Dame and less than five minutes walk from (at least) 3 different Metro stops. There are scores of bistros, restaurants, cafes, creperies, and a variety of markets, supermarkets and wine stores nearby. A bit loud in the street side and there were a pair of mornings where our alarm clock was preempted by the smoke detector for the whole building going off due to burnt bacon. A circuit breaker was tripped one evening and the television ceased and some of the plugs (though not all) provided no electricity. This was remedied the next morning. If you are are considering eating at the restaurant downstairs - even when jet-lagged on the first morning - don't, don't, don't. There are plenty of excellent places at the corner adjoining Boulevard Edgar Quinet and you will pay half as much for, much, much better food. If you are paying full price, do your research. There are plenty of great places to stay in Paris. This is a good place to stay. Expect some surprises and enjoy your visit! Bon Voyage! Read more

This small hotel provided an exceptionally good service and facilities. It's the best of the five 3-star hotels where we have stayed in the past. The location, in the 13th Arr., sounds distant, but it is very close to the 5th Arr. and the Latin Quarter. Also, very close to 2 Metro stations. The hotel is on a short, 2-block street which has 2 grocery […] stores, 1 vegetable market, 2 patiseries, 1 fromagerie, 1 fresh fish shop, one butcher shop, 1 movie theater, and numerous restaurants. Just around the corner is my favorite medium-price restaurant, La Coupole. Read more

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel is in a great location - close to two metro stops, grocery stores, restaraunts, and within walking distance of the train station. The reception staff were very friendly and helpful - especially Marjorie and Renaud - who each went above and beyond our expectations in helping us make the most of our stay in Paris. Our room was very small, but […] as we were informed at checkin, since we were going to be staying for 5 days, they upgraded us to a terrace view - much quieter, im sure, than a street view! Although the hotel had a breakfast buffet, it was 17 euros/person - which seemed a bit steep. We enjoyed the 10 euro mini-breakfast (croissant, juice and coffee) one morning, but ate at other locations the other four days.. Our bed was not the most comfortable one we encountered during our 2-week European trip - and in fact, it was probably the most uncomfortable. It was a double-size, and had some sort of mattress protector on it - which caused one to feel hot and sweaty from the non-breathable material. The cover also made the mattress more firm than it already was. Read more

My best friend and I stayed at Lenox for four nights in April 2012. Lenox Montparnasse far exceded our expectations. It is located about 100 meters from a very central metro line in the 14 adr.. The neighborhood was absolutely charming and away from the tourist areas. We were able to walk to all the big sites, all while having the ability to retreat […] to a quiet and quaint Parisien area. The rooms boasted charm and luxury with a modern and large bathroom and two very comfortable beds. This hotel is definitely a gem, and I will stay here from now on when travelling to Paris.

My age 14 daughter and I stayed for five nights in April 2012. Chose the Montparnasse area of Paris because of it's local flavor.The Lenox Montparnasse was a great choice. It's a boutique hotel with about five floors, a friendly staff, an honesty bar (that I used a couple times for a nightcap and a soda for my daughter.) The room was small (as many […] are in Paris). However, it was clean, well appointed, nicely decorated, street view with french windows that opened, free movies on the TV. English speaking Oliver, the evening desk person, was tremendously friendly, talkative, and helpful with ice and other requests. More on the area... loved Montparnasse and specifically the close proximity to many restaurants, bars, cafes, shops of ALL kinds; and a short walk to the Vivan and Edgar Quinet Metro stations. Would definitely stay there again. Read more

This is a small, lovely hotel, nicely decorated, well-maintained, and with an eye toward pleasing the guests. There are patisseries and boulangries and a fromagerie just steps away. It's also steps away from some of the most famous cafes in Paris history, Le Dome, Le Select, La Rotonde, and La Coupole. The Vavin metro is just around the corner. Free […] movies on demand and in room wifi or internet using the tv. Minibar in room with decent prices and all the non-alcoholic drinks you want for 6 euro/day. All of the front desk people are helpful. Complimentary afternoon tea in the lounge for guests. Tons of restaurants in the area. Loved it. Read more

Nice hotel, good value for the price (which is pleasantly low, especially for Paris). Pros: comfortable room, good location (every major attraction is reachable on foot, and the Montparnasse district is an excellent location for restaurants and bars) Cons: the bathroom could be cleaner, the breakfast is ridiculously overpriced (you are better off if […] you just go to one of the cafes on the corner nearby) Read more

My mom and I recently visited Paris for the first time and chose the Lenox Montparnasse based on other reviews. We were not let down. The location was perfect for getting to all the sights of Paris and they were tons of great places to eat nearby. I would definitively recommend this hotel and would stay here again.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Knowledgeable and attentive staff. Free wifi that worked. Terrific location with two Metro stations nearby and bus lines convenient to Montparnasse. Restaurants, boulangeries, cafes, laundry all nearby. Rooms a little small but not unusual for any major metropolitan city. Although it did not bother us, Rue Delambre was noisy but it's Paris for heavens […] sake. Walls were thin in the hotel but after a day of walking in Paris and some terrific French wine, who cares? LM is a great deal. We will be back for sure. Read more

Best 3 star I've ever stayed in Paris! Clean, decent hotel with nice charming decor, safe neighborhood, close to public transport (buses, metro), good restaurants near Edgar Quinet, movie theatres on Blvd Montparnasse & close to Rue de Rennes/St. Germain shopping. Street rooms with views of Tower are even quiet. Stayed here more than once in past few […] months and will probably stay again in future! Read more

The lobby is like a beautiful antique living room. The room was standard duty for Paris. Clean but a bit dowdy, old-fashioned. When I came to the lobby in the morning the front desk clerk asked if was going into the adjoining room for breakfast. Sure, why not? After eating the cereal, mixed fruit salad, pain au chocolat and scrambled eggs. I went to […] check out. The clerk asked why I was checking out without my luggage in hand. I told her I am renting an apartment in Paris for 2 months but the lock is frozen and the repairman can't come until Monday morning; the day of my Lenox hotel departure. Perhaps she didn't like that I didn't have luggage and was with my male friend. Fellow gay travelers beware. Next she indicated that the breakfast we just enjoyed would be an additional 17 Euros ($21) per person. Surprise! I suggested she tell people that instead of just inviting them for breakfast and then asking for that kind of money. She offered no apology, pointed to a small sign on the front desk that I couldn't read without putting my glasses on and asked which credit card I'd be using to pay for breakfast. Rude! The man who checked us in the night before was very accommodating and friendly. Read more
