  The hotel’s location is decent; the area is quiet because it’s not on the main street. However, the hotel is very cramped — there’s little space throughout the property. You can’t use the elevator with another person unless you don’t mind being in very close physical contact. The room itself is also very small.The weather was hot, and the air conditioning wasn’t working. It’s a central system that only operates during specific months, but it was turned on upon request.The staff is very helpful and extremely friendly.There’s no coffee machine in the room, but one is available at the reception 24/7.In my opinion, this is a 3-star hotel ⭐️⭐️⭐️ and not worth the price.Cleanliness level is excellent. Réception Hôtel l'Inattendu Paris, Propriétaire at Hotel L'Inattendu, responded to this review Dear Eman,Thank you very much for your feedback. We are pleased to hear that you appreciated the friendliness of our team and the cleanliness of the hotel.Regarding the air conditioning, your stay took place during a seasonal transition. Some guests prefer cooling while others want heating. Our modern central system regulates the temperature for the whole building, so it is not possible to heat and cool different rooms simultaneously. Each guest can choose to turn the system on or off in their room.We also note your comments about the size of the room and elevator. As a boutique hotel in a historic building, space is more limited than in larger modern hotels, but we strive to make every detail as comfortable as possible.About the price, your stay was during one of the most expensive periods of the year. Room rates vary daily according to demand, like airline tickets. Our yield management team sets prices to stay competitive and keep the hotel fully booked. We are never significantly more expensive than hotels of similar location and quality, otherwise we simply wouldn’t be able to sell our rooms. Our smallest room can range from €150 to €550 depending on demand. When rates seem high, it reflects the general market.Finally, we would like to assure you that our 4-star classification has been awarded by Atout France. After their detailed audit, we confirm that the hotel meets all criteria required for a 4-star rating.Thank you again for your comments. We hope to welcome you back on your next visit to Paris.Warm regards,Jean-Baptiste

  Charming and Quaint Hotel - Rive Gauche

  10 Jan 2025

  For sure this is a hidden gem on the Left Bank in Paris. From the moment we booked online until we checked out, the service was impeccable and we would go back in a heartbeat! We really enjoyed the location - not on a main street but rather a quiet side street within walking distance of many great restaurants, transit stops and lovely Luxembourg Gardens. We are walkers, so this was perfect for us. The hotel also arranged our transfer to the hotel after arriving in Paris from our transatlantic flight, which was very nice and convenient for us.Our room was comfortable and clean. Breakfast was plentiful and lovely on each of our two mornings at the hotel. If you are looking for a quaint and charming hotel, this is the spot. The price point, including breakfast and all-day coffee/tea pastries in the lobby, was also very reasonable for Paris - around $350CAD per night. Note they are currently undergoing some renovations to freshen up the property, but assured us they wouldn’t be compromising the charm and quaintness of the hotel. We would stay here again for sure!

  Excellent hotel in central Paris!

  Excellent service, clean rooms, very friendly staff, very cute lobby with 24 seven snacks, coffee, hot chocolate. Wonderful location, or you can walk to many attractions and the metro. Next to several restaurants and a wonderful tiny wine bar.

  Other than location this hotel has nothing to recommend it…

  17 Oct 2023

  Other than location, which is convenient, this hotel is poor. Room is tiny. Shower leaks. Breakfast is poor. Coffee is terrible. Residents not allowed in the lobby after midnight - my son was instructed to go outside to conduct his phone call. How this hotel is rated 4 stars is a mystery. It is, at best, a 2 star hotel. Will not return.
