We booked this hotel at the last minute but after reading the reviews here we tried to cancel! The hotel has a 7 day cancellation policy so we decided just to risk it. The location is brilliant and the hotel was absolutely fine, trust me I've stayed in some dumps throughout Paris and Europe! The staff were really friendly as... more

We were shocked at what we saw when we arrived at the hotel and saw the hotel in complete rehab. Our room was so small we could hardly fit our luggage in. Fodors recommended it as a budget hotel on a quiet street and it made it sound quaint and wonderful. the pictures on the hotel website were also prettied... more

If you can't find another reasonably priced hotel in the Marais, this place is worth considering. The location is great, in a quiet sidestreet just off Rue des Archives, with great bars, cafes, restaurants and shops in easy walking distance. It's also within walking distance of Hotel de Ville, Pompidou Centre and Notre Dame. Rooms & bathroom are small but... more

My 14 year old son and i stayed here in 2000. i found this hotel ithrough Rick Steves. The location was fine. the bathroom was very nice. the room itself was small and just okay. The walls were paper thin. Hearing a drunk couple copulating at 2 a.m. is not my idea of a pleasant night (it most likely was... more

We booked the Vieux Marais when the Paris apt we reserved was not available for the full time we needed. We booked 3 days at the hotel. Upon arrival in the afternoon we were told there was no room ready and to return. We were exhaused and stopped by the hotel de Ville to rest (we fell asleep on the... more

After doing an exhaustive internet search for reasonably-priced sleeps in Paris, I found Hotel Vieux Marais on TripAdviser. The mostly glowing reviews did not dissapoint. The hotel is on a tiny street (it wasn't even on our Paris map!) just off Rue des Archives in the Marais district. Though this neighborhood is known for its major bar and club scene,... more

This characterful Hotel is in a totally marvellous location in the fab Marais & handy to everything..... However it is an acquired taste with a lot of eccentric charm. It's like staying with a quirky family who are renovating. I'd stay again though ... The Staff are really great & helpful - just be friendly & try speaking a bit... more

We stayed in Room 43 at this hotel. Booking a hotel in Paris when there are so many to choose from, and so many awful reviews is a huge challenge so really want to provide details on our experience! Staying in the Marais was fantastic - so much to do in the evening, so close to lots of attractions, we... more

I realize as Americans, we are probably the most spoiled people in the world and we like it that way. This hotel was far from acceptable. No lights in the hall, no working outlets, 1 key per guest. Then there is a game to play with lights with the room key. If you are used to substandard then this one... more

I stayed here in September of last year and had a lovely time at this hotel. The location was perfect. Close to the Pompidou, shopping, the Notre Dame....the area reminded me of my own neighborhood at home -- a bit trendy, comfortable, safe and close to everything. The staff were really nice. Of course, I think if you make an... more
