Hotel Academie

Everything was wonderful, including staff,location cleanliness...Would go back again and would recommend...

If you are in Paris as a tourist, this central location between the louvre, Musee D'Orsay and Latin quarter is perfect. Easy walking distance to many museums and sites! The hotel staff was very helpful and knowledgeable. We will definitely stay at this quirky hotel again. Not a single picture in this hotel was hanging straight, but the ease of location and wonderful staff made the quirks worthwhile. The rooms are Spartan, but comfortable. The bathrooms are a little dated but clean and the elevator is minuscule. The breakfast was excellent. The terrific staff and ideal location overcome the oddities!

Best left bank location in Paris. Small boutique hotel & rooms but just perfect for a few days and nights. Great Staff makes it even more inviting,

Great location, wonderful staff (spoke perfect English)...rooms are small but it is like this everywhere in Paris. The rooms were very clean and quiet.

After returning our rental car from CDG, took RER and 1 transfer, we arrived only about 2blocks from the hotel. Location is great since the museums, shops and restaurants are all within walking distance. The hotel is old and small, but had charm of its own with wooden beam ceiling. The room was clean, and even had free WIFI. The staffs are all nice and spoke English. For 3 star rating-it is what was expected. It was okay for us to stay for just 3 nights, but if we had to stay longer, I will not stay again because of the size of the room and the bathroom.

would go back to this hotel as staff was great. patricia the mgr was very helpful in answeing questions in detail. great concierge

This is our second stay at this hotel. We went the first time because it was in an area we knew and liked; we returned because we found the staff friendly and the breakfast wonderful. The location remains wonderful - in the centre of the St Germain des Pres area so good for shops, eating places and transport links.

Near the Louvre, Orsay, Notre Dame and St. Germain it was very convenient to walk everywhere. The room was not what I expected for what we paid. Listed as a Deluxe room, it was on the fifth floor, tiny room, and tub but no shower. We were on the street side of the hotel but it was fairly quiet at night. Bed was comfortable and the sheets were clean. This was a fully pre-paid reservation but we still had to pay an additional "city tax" per night.

Hotel Academie was better than hoped for. The location, 2 blocks from the Seine, 4 blocks from the Louvre Museum, was excellent. Going in the other direction, Metro was 2 blocks away, great cafes and stores for shopping. Great chocolate shop next door, expensive but great quality. Staff all spoke English well, were very helpful and pleasant. The only drawback in 5 nights was the cleaning person did not leave new rolls of toilet paper or new shampoo the last 2 days, we ran out of both. Room was small, but comfortable, and who stays there for very long anyway. Just to sleep, bathe, and change clothes. Bathrooms were fine, had jacuzzi tub and needed it after long days of Louvre, and other explorations.

We stayed in this hotel over Easter 2012. We found this hotel to be extremely comfortable with very friendly and helpful English speaking staff. Our room wasn't very big, but it was spotlessly clean and the bed was extremely comfortable allowing for good sleep. The shower room was tiny and I could just about fit in the shower! There are bigger rooms, but we were very happy with ours. We didn't hear any other guests apart from when they allowed their doors to slam. Other than that it was very peaceful. The location of this hotel is perfect for getting around. It took us about 10 minutes to walk to the Musée d’Orsay and about 15 minutes to walk to the Notre Dame. The little side streets of Saint Germain are really charming with lots of restaurants and cafes. We found the metro station at Rue de Bac ( approx 7 mins walk) to be the easiest to get to anywhere in the city. The receptionist ordered a shuttle bus to take us back to the airport on our last day. We will definitely recommend this hotel to our friends and hope to return again very soon.
