The staff were very friendly and polite. The rooms are clean and the housekeeping staff does a great job. Free coffee all day long is a nice benefit. The best thing for me is that the beds were super comfy. The bathroom was tiny, as you get with many Paris hotels, but I made do. Overall it was a very nice stay.

Small and buggy

The room was impossibly small and showed visible signs of wear and tear- the location was the only saving grace, but even that wasn’t enough to stop us from checking out early when we woke up to find small ants all over the floor and our suitcases. The staff was very apologetic and helpful getting us checked out with a refund for the nights we were not staying.

My daughter and I loved our stay at Hotel Oratio. We will definitely stay here again when we come back to Paris. The staff was amazing. The location is perfect with multiple metro lines within a few blocks, a wonderful street market just around the corner, walkable to many major sites, and on a quiet street.

The hotel is small but wonderfully staffed with a helpful bilingual front desk with genuine smiles! The morning buffet was delicious and the variety of croissants spoiled us. We asked for 2 beds which was tight, but was able to rearrange the room to make it work. The newly renovated hotel (2yrs ago) had great bathrooms with overscaled, colored tiles - great design eye;.). All in all, a terrific choice!

Loved the hotel and staff overall. I would absolutely stay here again. Unfortunately, the elevator was broke and awaiting a part for repair so the only inconvenience was having to walk up and down 5 flights of stairs to my room on the 5th floor daily.

Paris with kids

We got the family room which was perfect for us. We were able to keep both doors open with a door stopper that the staff provided for us. Kids in one room with bathroom and us in another room with bathroom. Both rooms were separated by a hallway. Free tea and coffee in the lobby. Great location!

Misleading Information from Front Desk

We asked them to book us a taxi for the morning that we were leaving. They charged us 40 euros and told us that we wouldn't have to pay the taxi since we already paid. When we took the taxi the driver then charged us an additional 70 euros.
