A chic hotel room down a calm street in the trendy district of Le Marais – this location is very hard to beat. The room itself has been stylishly furnished, we particularly enjoy the deep blue velvet banquette and walnut desk at the end of the bed. There's plenty of storage to unpack too which is a plus. The bathroom has been beautifully kitted out with all the luxuries of a hotel. Downstairs guests will find a lounge room with a bar to enjoy a drink or a coffee in. If you're planning a quick stop over in Paris, or just prefer hotels over houses then this is a great choice.

Home truths:
* The lift isn't currently working so we'd suggest packing light and preparing for a climb
* The communal areas feel quite dark
* The water tank in the bathroom can be quite noisy
