We spent a great time in Paris. The hotel is very good located. It is a typical Paris one. With very small rooms but very good services and excellent the personnel disposition we could enjoy very much our week in Paris. Breakfast is acceptable taking in consideration price/quality relation.

Nice, clean and cosy hotel for a weekend in Paris. Close to the subway or Paris bike rental (Velib'). Nice neighbourhood with a lot of restaurants for a brunch or dinner. I recommend!

My 13 year old grandson and I arrived as scheduled on April 22, 2009 via the Chunnel, and were welcomed by reception. I was expecting the typical small room at the L'Atelier Montparnasse as I had stayed there two years earlier, but instead we were put in the top floor large twin room. It was gigantic, even by American standards, and I believe the largest one in the hotel. It should be noted that in the ratings above, I was rating the room we stayed in which is very large. All the other rooms, however, are quite small--Parisian small. Very clean room, comfortable beds and spacious bathroom. The reception varied somewhat in language and competence. One woman in particular was very helpful, spoke English much better than my French, called the airlines for my confirmation and even remembered me from two years earlier. The receiving woman must have been new on the job for just a little while as she didn't have us sign in, and knew a bit of the procedure but not a lot. The night person was friendly, spoke mostly French (naturally), and was very helpful as well. Spoke slow enough French so we could have a conversation. The cost was a bit more than two years ago, but I believe their rates changed to the summer months the week we arrived. Finally, the location of the hotel is superb with the Vavin stop on Montparnasse Boulevard on line #4 about two hundred feet away, plenty of cafes nearby and the Jardin Luxembourg a short walk away. I would stay there again in a hearbeat.

It's a nice surprise to have a bath with enough hot water in the room. Howevr, the bed mat is worn out and the pillow is small, which reminds me a cheaper hotel in countryside. The location is convenient to use Paris Metro but a little walking to go to SNCF Montparnasse, which was the main reason for me to chose the hotel. There is nothing fancy the name implies in the hotel.

Our family of two adults and two young teenagers enjoyed our stay here. The staff was pleasant and courteous, the room relatively spacious and modern, the location good. We were on the 6th floor facing the street and you had to close the windows to much reduce the noise factor of street work and the trash removal truck. The only noise then was the low groan of the elevator from time to time, which was tolerable. My only complaint was that when the website listed that breakfast was served every day, and wireless internet was provided, I assumed that it was included in the room rate displayed. I booked on that basis and faced with the bill later, I felt this was misleading, something they could have simply corrected by a paranthesized explanation before you book ("extra charge"). The breakfast was convenient but not worth it for a family of four light eaters. Other than this I think it was a good deal.
