Hotel de La Boetie

This was such a lovely hotel. The decor is lovely, especially in the rooms with gorgeous pink sheets, towels and robes. The staff are all brilliant. Cecile was incredibly helpful before our visit and was lovely when we checked in and gave my daughter some treats. I left my daughter’s birth certificate in the room after check out and the staff were very helpful getting this back to me. We didn’t have breakfast in the hotel but it looked decent and the room was pleasant. I would definitely return here. The location was great too.

In late fall and winter, especially around the festivities, it's hard the AC is turned to heater only. This forced us to turn off the heat and open the windows, which made it very difficult to sleep uninterruptedly. We could hear in the room all the car and human noises from the street below. I'm sure this may not be the case in spring and summer because the property turns the AC on, so guests won't have to keep the balcony doors open. Otherwise, the property is impeccably clean, the staff is extremely cooperative, and its location is prime real estate.

Hôtel de la Boétie is a big mistake. We arrived 30-45 mins past the checkin time but the room was not ready. We were not the only ones as there were others who didn’t get their rooms on time. Worst part of the reception was shady and didn't communicate how much time it would take to get everything ready. We did get our room by 5 pm. They should have just been honest and upfront with us. The elevator is so tiny that it fits one person at a time. We booked the most expensive room but we got a room with 2 single beds. The actual room was not the same as the photos online. The room heat seems to be centralized and set to 27 C/80 F. We had to open the windows. Our room was by the street and it was extremely loud the whole night. The toiletries and water pressure in the bathroom was good other than that nothing else was either working or was enjoyable. I felt this place is a European hostel trying to pass as a 4* hotel. I would give it a ZERO star and avoid it as a plague. I am surprised there aren't more bad reviews. I witnessed other unhappy guests too. I hope this review helps people with their decision.

Beautiful, chic and centrally located hotel. The rooms are gorgeous and striking, with lovely touches like Bakelite phones and fluffy robes. The design is carefully considered and never gimmicky, this feels like a grown-up boutique hotel. We appreciated the complementary breakfast including great and strong coffee. Our stay was slightly marred by being put in the wrong room category for our first night - took some discussion to get resolved, but the hotel did refund the price difference.

Lovely, charming, hotel in superb location in the 8th. Beautifully designed, with wonderful textiles and rooms with small balconies. Spotlessly clean and lovely staff. Onsite bar and all major attractions just moments away.

great location, affordable price
