HOTEL MONTALEMBERT

We have stayed at countless Hotels in Paris and now we have found our home base!!! Young and running to help you, Clean and lovely rooms, great location!!! and the staff is set to help you with all your reservations and needs!!! It was our 30th anniversary and we found our Hotel Room door wrapped in a big bow, lovely, lovely place

Very nice hotel and perfect service. The room very clean but a little small. Maybe a bigger lounge area had been great to have. Always helpful service and very kind. I hope I have the opportunity to come back.

This is a mixed review but overall positive. We stayed several nights at the end of May. The hotel is lovely and the staff are accommodating and helpful. Our room was on a lower floor which was handy as the elevator is impossibly tiny. I am entirely uncomfortable in small enclosed spaces, so we walked the stairs every time. This was never a problem as there are a couple of delicious bakeries nearby which we frequented so we welcomed walking the stairs to our room. The room itself was really really small - very tricky for 2 suitcases - however the small but beautiful balcony made up for it (not in accomodating the suitcases!). It felt very 'Paris' and it was lovely to open the doors whilst getting ready to go out or resting between outings - we still felt like we were part of it all. It was disappointing that the bar fridge in our room didn't work at all until the last day of our stay even though we had told staff about it. We missed being able to pre chill our drinks, wine/champagne - especially given the warm weather we enjoyed. Breakfast was included in our package and that was a treat each morning sitting outside (most days) watching people go by as we indulged in a very hospitable start to the day. Lastly, I had told Reservations when we had booked some months prior to going that it was a special occasion trip - an auspicious birthday for my husband and our 20th wedding anniversary. Would have been nice for this to have been recognised. Promised 'welcome' sweets and 'we will make your stay very special' prior to booking - a small block of 'shop bought' chocolate was left on the sideboard at some stage on our first day. Perhaps I am being overly critical as I cannot help but compare this hotel to our experience in a similarly sized boutique hotel in Barcelona several days later - that was incredible - service amazing, welcome wine, bar fridge fully stocked and working, exquisite small sweets left in our room from the kitchen every afternoon - all without even having told them about our special occasion. Having said all that Montalembert was lovely, close to Musee d'Orsay (not just the Louvre) and within walking distance to so much more. Location and a degree of 'chic' is the best thing about the hotel. Desk staff were also great.

Another visit to Montalembert, always a warm welcome and good-bye. The renovations are appreciated for this well-located hotel near the Rue du Bac. Meals and drinks on the terrace are enjoyable during the warm weather. The real attraction is the staff - accommodating, helpful, and friendly. We love their practice of gathering to wish their guests a Bon Voyage and an invitation to return, which we hope to do many times in the future. Love the location!

Fantastic stay at one of our favorite hotels that is now better than ever. What strikes me most about our experience is that everyone knew our name when we approached reception or concierge and the interactions w staff were professional yet warm. Thanks again!
