As everyone might be aware of, the size of a hotel room in Paris is not very big. But this has a great efficieny. The open wardrobe, the little desk, even a TV and the bathroom with bath (instead of a shower only) I really liked the layout and the sheets and towels are clean, as well as the room itself. The coffeeshop within the hotel is also worth to mention. I liked their coffee and the breakfast option. Well done, team. Speaking of the team, I asked them to put and keep a few bits of mine to the fridge/freezer. They were very helpful. Great location too.. a very good value/performance ratio

There is a hazard. The TV stand corners are too sharp! I hit my arm. I can’t understand how this is escaped from attention

Loved the location, walking distance from Notre Dame which was amazing. There is a cafe/restaurant downstairs with delicious coffee and pastries. It's a quieter less touristy neighborhood with many restaurants so you have so much choice. And a special mention to the water pressure in our shower, it is the best I have ever experienced in a hotel ever. I would happily stay in this hotel again.

Only negative about this hotel was that the elevator was very slow, but that is something you just need to factor in as part of your stay. Room was on the smaller side but it was stocked with really thoughtful items like a record player and a bottle of wine -so we'll call it cozy not small.

The location was incredible - Luxembourg Gardens practically at your doorstep, lots of transport options and easy walking distance to so many attractions! It was a great place to make my home base for my stay in Paris. The bed was also very plush and comfortable. The coffee shop downstairs is great too, I found the coffee in Paris to generally be quite bad but this coffee shop does a great brew! The staff are a mixed bag - some are really friendly and nice, others are cold and terse in that typical Parisian manner.

My room was very small with barely enough space to open up my suitcase and still walk around the room. The shower is also very tight and leaked every time I showered. On one occasion the leak was so severe that the water ended up completely flooding the bathroom into the main room and almost in all my luggage. I informed the staff and their suggestion was strangely to “shower with your back to the screen door” as though that was the issue and not the lack of proper seal on the bottom of the screen door. Also with no available fridge or kitchen facilities (neither in room or shared space) it makes it really had to do anything but eat out. Even making a cup of tea was not possible as there is no kettle. I suppose this is to encourage guests to make use of the cafe.

The location is absolutely phenomenal. Just on the edge of the 6th but in the 5th. The real bonus is the best crepes in Paris are located just across the street at Au P’Tit Grec. I’ve been going there for over 30 years. It’s very easy to get to everything from this location. And, the RER B line is just two short blocks away.

Food is still excellent downstairs, but they did not have their usual smile on in the dining area. Maybe it was seven days of clouds. The noise from some work being done next door was a distraction one morning, but I just got up earlier the next day. Everything in the room is tight. If you lean over, make sure you don’t hit your head on a projectile.

I've booked it for my brother the last minute, so he could stay near us, and I really did like the fact that pictures didn't lie. Staff was friendly. Room was clean. Not too small. I loved the idea of the books in the rooms. Location is just perfect, next to beautiful Sorbone building. And: ▪︎Close to metro. ▪︎5 minutes to Pantheon, 5min to Luxembourg gardens. ▪︎10min to Notre Dame. ▪︎25 min to Jardin des Plantes with good 3 museums for kids and adults (Dinosaurs, Mineralogy and Evolution). And the whole street of not too pricy cafes there.

It's not that we didn't like, but it is kind of funny. My brother kept passing by the entrance, because there is a book shop on the ground floor too and it confused him :)

- Location is amazing - Bed and pillows VERY comfortable - WiFi is fast - The attached cafe and restaurant is really convenient and I love that they open at 7:30am. Omelette and espresso drinks are very good. - Very quiet. I didn't hear the street at all.

- Extremely small room and bed - No shelf in the shower to store your own soap - No closet or shelving of any kind. Have to put your clothes on the floor. - The reading lamp above the bed is very harsh light that blinds your peripheral vision. - A bit expensive for what you get - Sink not deep enough to fill water bottle (but free water dispenser in the lobby)

French Theory is a cute little hotel located in one of the best districts of central Paris. My stay was perfect, the room was super clean. It offered extremely good price value ratio for Paris city. The twin room felt larger than I had expected. The bed was very comfortable. All of the staff members are very quick to respond to any questions. It is only 3 metro / train stops from Paris Gare de Lyon. It’s 4 mins walk from Luxembourg station. Lots of eateries and bars nearby. Cute independent cinema nearby even offers Chinese movie weeks. The coffee downstairs is of high quality.

The wifi in my twin room on the first floor was very weak, most of time I couldn’t use it. There’s no fan in the bathroom so after the shower the entire hotel room was quite steamy. It’s Paris city so at 6am there can be garbage trucks which are very loud if you let the windows open. The shower head keeps dropping down in my room. The hotel doesn’t accept Revolut card payment for some unknown reason. (Everywhere else in Paris accepts it.)

The staff were friendly and despite work happening on the building next door I was given a quiet room and slept well. The location was perfect. Two stops from Gare Du Nord and lots of great places to eat. There is so much to see within walking distance. I stayed two days and felt like I was only scratching he surface.

Although there is a cafe downstairs I would have liked a kettle in the room so I could make my own tea. Also the TV didn't work but I rarely ever watch it. Finally they have some record players I the very cool 'Audio Lab' in the basement but all the needles were damages and the records on the decks were unsurprisingly scratched.

The staff were wonderful - so welcoming and kind! I dropped my bags early and explored the location - which is also incredibly central! There is a lovely cafe/wine bar and a working area that I made full use of as I worked remotely while staying. The room itself was well appointed with good facilities and a nice minimalist industrial vibe. Lovely touches like a little speaker in the room made it feel like a little home. My room was quiet and calm and the bed was very comfy. Full praise goes to the breakfast chefs and cafe staff who made sure I had an incredible meal both mornings.

Nothing. It was brilliant. I will be back!

The location is perfect. Particularly if you like cinemas, bookshops and universities. Nice staff, great lamination on the breakfast croissant, pleasant change from more impersonal hotels. I was happy here. And you get to say your hotel is called French Theory which is kind of hilarious (it’s just a few minutes walk from the famous philosophy bookshop J. Vrin and of course the Sorbonne)!

Well, the rooms are fairly minimal in style and fixtures. You get hanging space but no drawers. But there was really nothing I’d moan about! I was comfortable.
