Abbatial Saint Germain

Wonderful staff

Pros: The hotel was in a great location, clean, and friendly. We accidentally left our iPad in the room the day we left for the airport. Via email at the airport, they found our iPad and shipped it soon after. We are very thankful and would highly recommend anyone staying there.

Good location for seeing the sites

Pros: The hotel is located only a block or so from the Notre Dame cathedral and the river, which was nice. The rooms were quite small, but well kept. Its a pretty good choice as a home base for site seeing.

Cons: There is a single elevator for reaching the higher floors. It is pretty slow. Some of the rooms are small and well laid out, but some of them are small and not well laid out (I stayed in two different rooms).

Location, Location, Location.

Pros: Unbelievably great location within walking to distance to Notre Dame and Blvd St. Michel. Great restaurants/cafes within steps; Paris's best rated croissants and boulangeries within 1/4 mile. Great front desk staff.

Cons: Quality of towels and bathroom soaps, etc., were not great. Rooms are small compared to many but comfortable and very clean.
