This is a decent Parisian hotel in an old building. The rooms are layed out well and make the most of the space. If you are looking for an American style hotel you will be disappointed, but if you are looking for a clean, Parisian experience close to transit and close to a vibrant neighborhood, this is a great place

I stayed at this hotel in 2009 and felt welcomed and cared for. The same cannot be said of several of the staff during this stay. Additionally, the room was arranged so that moving from one side of the bedroom to the other was difficult (too small).

Our room was clean but very small. Almost too small for two people. Very difficult to get around the bed. Very little space for luggage. Bathroom was also very small but had essentials. No counter space and tiny shower. We were there for only one night so it was fine. Breakfast was quite good.

Just comments
It’s a great hotel, lots of character. Sadly we were able to have only two employees that were outstanding, one of them was Christian and the other the guy who worked there on Thursday afternoon…

Decent hotel but very old and small rooms. Staff are helpful. Overall, a decent stay if all you’re looking for is a bed to crash in.

Charming Hotel Castex
Hotel Castex blends 18th century decor with modern amenities. My room was charming and overlooked Rue Castex. The pink and cream curtains are reminiscent of Marie Antoinette. There is a private modern bathroom. The staff speaks English and was friendly and helpful. The area is safe for walking alone at night and close the cafe’s and pâtisseries.

Absolutely wonderful stay - 6 nights and I was super pleased. Staff was friendly the shooing and dining a walk’s distance was excellent. Room was quaint and had everything I needed. And they gifted me a bottle of wine as a welcome gift. The wine was delicious! A definite recommend! Everyone spoke English!

This is an older Grand Dame Hotel within easy walking distance to Bastille, Notre Dame - reopening December 2024 - and the Seine transportation such as Batobus to all major attractions. Having a 24 hour Concierge helps with Security and Privacy… Hotel is nearby to Gare du Lyon Train station - a short Taxi or longer walk to Hotel. Most Paris Taxi Drivers are very nice and helpful - others, can be very rude and have bad attitudes, don’t waste a minute of your time with these guys, move on to the next.
