This small hotel is in a 17th-century hôtel particulier (town house) on a tiny street in Le Marais, a few minutes' walk from the Centre Pompidou and the bars and cafés of Rue Vieille du Temple. Choose either chambres classiques or chambres de charme; the latter are more spacious (and pricier), with more elaborate furnishings like Louis XIII-style four-poster canopy beds and marble bathtubs. Overall, the establishment is spotless, and the staff is welcoming. Breakfast is served in the vaulted cellar. Pros: central location and comfortable decor at a moderate price; typical Parisian character. Cons: quality and size of the rooms vary greatly; the in-your-face gay district location may not be to everyone's taste.

We stayed here on our first visit to Paris over 10 years ago. We loved it!! Great location; nicely decorated albeit small room. We fell in love with Paris and the marais. We have been back to Paris 8 times since, partly due to the experience we had here.
