It was dark and dingy, we were offered 2 other rooms which none looked like the pictures on their website.

Our "superior" room consisted of 2 narrow hallways between the door, the dirty little bathroom, and the tiny dark room.

The room and bathroom were dark with very poor lighting.

However, I think there are a few needs as below : First, rooms are little bit dark, so when I come back from my day trip, I feel little bit down and tired.

The carpet was dark and spotted in areas, corners not well cleaned, and there were dirty marks all along the hallway at shoulder height.

we were placed in a dark,dingy worn room that would better suit a person or people that don't need any natural light or feelings of normality.

but being on the second floor it was also quite dark and we needed the lights on at all times.

It smelled terribly bad, it was very dark and the carpet was gluey (ie I stood there for approx 10 minutes and my shoes were sticking to the floor!).

It was a bit dark as it had only one window on an interior courtyard so you had to really look up to see the sky.

I should also mention that it felt safe even after dark.

Still on the stairs they are lit by lights on movement sensors and we often found ourselves in the middle of a flight of stairs in the dark which was a little unnerving.

It was also rather dark as it faced a tiny inner courtyard, there was very little daylight.

After entering the door to the second room, I had to walk along 2 long hallways in the dark to get to the room proper.

It was dark, narrow, and the bathroom with no tub was so small - even for Paris - that I declined.

The room itself was quite dark because it overlooked an inner courtyard,

BUT also wood beams in ceiling, friendly staff, diligent housekeeping, awesome location two blocks from basically everything cool.

Room was a good size for Paris, staff were friendly.

The staff was friendly and helpful and spoke English.

The staff are lovely, particularly Adrian and Najim who are so helpful and friendly.

That are friendly staff, comfort, large room (for Paris), surprisingly large  bathroom.

Ideal location for seeing the sights in Paris.

The location is perfect - whether having dinner or un café down the block, or walking to the Seine, Latin Quarter, or Notre Dame.

We loved the central location just a couple blocks off the Pont Neuf, very easy to walk to the Latin Quarter, the Luxembourg Gardens, the Louvre, even the Marais.

The location couldn't be beat, with easy access to all the city's sites and plenty of metro/bus options if walking was not preferred.

I loved the location and bustling vibe of this hotel and will definitely return for another visit to Paris very soon.

I would stay again because of the excellent staff and location.

The location (6th Arrondissement) is next to many bars, cafes and crêperies.

Would reccomend based on location, comfort and service which for me is always important when looking on a hotel to stay at.

Hotel location was excellent, lots of resraurants and bars nearby at reasonable prices.

It is in an amazing location, a 1 minute walk to the Seine, and then Notre Dame is 5 minutes away.

The location is perfect and close to everything.

I loved the location of the hotel, the cleanliness of rooms and the staff!

This quaint hotel is located within walking distance of great restaurants, the river, gardens/parks and even the Louvre and Notre Dame!

The location was fabulous and so convenient to so many attractions.

Over the years I have chosen Hotel Dauphine for it’s fantastic location in the heart of St Germain, close to transport, museums and wonderful restaurants.

5min walk to Boulevard Saint Germaine, Louvre museum just 10 min walk and Notre Dame.

Walking distance to the louvre museum, and Eiffel tower, & Jardin du Luxembourg gardens, in fact you are not far from anything.

Nice hotel in the middle of Latin Quarter, just a short walk from Notre Dame and Louvre museum.

the star is the position, near the metro and the louvre museum.

The location was perfect and within walking distance to historical Paris sites such as the Notre Dame Cathedral and the Louvre Museum.

Located a few steps from Pont Neuf, with the Louvre Museum right there, as well as St. Germain, St. Michel and easy access to everything.

It was truly ideal, so close to restaurants and transit and the magical Seine!

rooms are beautiful well appointed and clean. brilliant eating venues right outside and around the corner( Maison Sauvage in my favourite!)

Restaurants and shopping directly across the street.

This hotel is close to many restaurants and shops in Saint Germain.

We were able to walk to all of the main sites we wanted to see, and it's surrounded by good restaurants.

We didn’t pay for breakfast as there are so many places to eat on the doorstep.

The hotel is just around the corner from Rue de Buci which has a number of excellent restaurants to choose from in a bustling and fun area - our favorite was Cafe Buci, while Atlas, a seafood restaurant catty corner from it, also was very good.

Lots of good restaurants as well very close by.

Also, walking distance to Notre Dame, the Louvre, Musee D'Orsay, and of course, the entire Left Bank/Latin Quarter with its restaurants and shops.

Lots of restaurants in the area and within walking distance of a lot of the sights - Notre Dame, Musee du Louvre, Musee d’Orsay, Jardins du Luxembourg etc.

The staff is nice, welcoming, and help us alot with finding great restaurant.

but there are many cafes in the neighborhood that will also serve a decent breakfast.

Very close to transportation, restaurants and shopping.

I am so amazed at how much care the staff took prior to our trip in helping us with arrival questions as well as places to eat near there.

Bathroom Tub drain was stuck for first 2 nights.

The room was small and clean,except the bathroom had an unclean odour.

A complaint about that would be akin to complaining about the sulfur smell in an Icelandic shower.

Not sure if someone had been smoking illicitly before us or it came through the air conditioning.

but ours smelled like someone/something died in it.

Bonus, if you happen to be up at one in the morning, you can smell the croissants being made somewhere in the neighborhood.

Finally, there was an unpleasant moldy smell in the bathroom, which seemed to be very clean.

Soap smelled wonderful! We were on the fifth floor, so in order to get to it, you took an extremely tiny lift (so tiny that one night three people got in it, and it was overloaded!)

The smell persisted and it lasted for approx 1 hour.

The hotel's biggest drawback was the strong scent throughout - clearly intended as a nicety,

My only comment is that the fragrance of the sachets in the public areas is too strong.

Maybe that explained the smell in that room.

Room 14 was tiny, the airconditioning/heating unit was very noisy, and  provided insufficient heat, and the shower efficiently flooded the bathroom while making the person taking the shower only mildly damp.

though we were in smoking rooms (and don't smoke) there was absolutely no smoky residue or odor.

Classic 3-star in the heart of the Left Bank, so bear that in mind: cramped staircases, slow elevator, small bathrooms, tight-squeeze bedrooms.

The rooms with bathtubs have much larger total bathroom space.

but the location more than made up for lack of space.

but parctical use of the space makes the room seem larger.

Our 2 bedroom suite was a very small room with a bed, 2 small chairs,some shelves to put your clothes

Given that this was larger than a standard double, I'd say be careful if you are over 6' tall or weigh much over 200 lbs--you will find it pretty cramped.

They should put some hooks and shelves around, so at least you can hang/put stuff.

Travellers to Paris have to expect rooms to be small, unless you really are paying for space.

There needs to be more modern space to keep clothing.

My room was cramped and virtually no light.

but not so small that we couldn't move, and there was a nice chifforobe with hangers and shelves if you're staying long enough to unpack.

There were no drawers so we ended up living out of our suitcases which I hate .

Do not come here if you are looking for vast space in your room; you will not find it in most hotels of this calibre.

The items they show as features in their brochure, are just strange and take up space, such as an old intercom, jammed next to the night stand.

but I doubt anyone who is use to space would be able to use it.

You can ask them to remove the drinks so you have more space for your goodies.

The room layout made the space feel bigger - the room door opens into a small hallway with a mirror, bathroom (separate room) to the right off the entry hallway, which then opens to the left, to the bedroom (with a window).

Well looked after by all the lovely staff, especially the great guys on reception, nothing was too much trouble.

but clean with well appointed rooms, a nice staff and a pleasant breakfast.

It's charming, and the charm level is equalled (if not surpassed by) the staff.

And thanks a lot to Anna, from the concierge.

The staff are all super helpful, and speak great English.

No coffee in the room, then charging me for a cup to go, is also a pet peeve of mine.

but it was so problem and we were not charged for it!

All my guests took a card and said they would come back there if they need to stay in Paris.

but afterwards checked hotel website directly and was the same price so wish I had booked directly on their own website (booking was made within 7 days of arrival so would have been charged by booking.com to cancel)

The only problem we had was when we checked out they nearly charged us for the breakfast buffet and using the sauna and steam room.

We returned late one evening with a bottle of wine, I requested a bottle opener, they took our bottle, we went to our room and 2 minutes later the wine arrives in an ice bucket with two glasses and a bowl of nuts and olives ( no charge ) Now that is service.

One point to note is that if the hotel order a fixed rate taxi for you that you confirm this with the taxi as we got to the airport to find we were charged more than the original quote which was a bit annoying.

We are from NYC and we totally forgot to bring the outlet converter to charge our cameras, the front desk staff had every converter you can imagine.

The minor one was I felt the breakfasts were a little ‘lightweight’ for the price guests pay within their room charge.

but upon arriving at the hotel the staff phoned them and it turned out the taxi company had a mix up and the staff arranged with them to pick us up for our departure free of charge!!

(note: they do not pre authorise a card or anything, they make you feel at home and you pay on check out - a real plus)
We stayed in the Musee D'Orsay room and it was perfect.

There is NO CHARGE to change rooms so take advantage!

but it is pretty sad when you know that is why they charge so much, for a few extra bits of plastic and wood put up to look like a monument.

Coffee: Not complimentary and we're charged for all our orders.

he said it was a waiting charge this is a disgrace such a shame really mad our stay a bad experience .

I had forgotten that the cost was not included and there was no reminder anywhere in the dining room that there was a charge.

but we were not notified someone would be in our room and we did not know there was a problem with the bath, he also used our iphone charger to charge his phone whilst he was fixing the bath.

Hotel Secret de Paris 25.-26.9.2022

Exciting

The room, the service, the breakfast and the atmosphere in the evening all contributed to a great stay.

Its intimate rooms are personalised with themes about the most prestigious monuments in the history of Paris (such as rooms based on the Moulin Rouge).

Everything is cleaned and the environment is perfect for whom wants to spend a great time with the loved one.

The rooms are fun and elegantly appointed.

Its rooms are decorated with style, to give guests a taste of the Paris atmosphere.

She explained the reason behind the hotel's design, and the different rooms the hotel offer before showing us our room and how to use everything.

The hotel design, the cleaning, the staff (special thanks to the blonde girl who introduced us to the hotel, explaining the meaning of that name and the rooms, you've been super kind).

This hotel was well decorated, well run and the breakfast was excellent.

Bed extremely comfortable and plenty of pillows helps make this a comfortable hotel as well as an aesthetically pleasing one.

but with a lot of gadgets and nice design.

Nice hotel in Paris with different rooms designed according to different locations in the City.

I stayed at the Secret Design hotel 2 years ago in January,

The concept is really different and the design amazing.

Everything is amazing at the hotel: rooms are very clean and stylish, sauna and steam room are really great for a hotel and you can have it 24/7!

The whole hotel had a wonderful ambiance and was beautiful-we loved hearing about the concept and the history.

The staff was incredibly friendly and very helpful.

The staff were warm, friendly and spoke impeccable English(of course).

Staff were very friendly and accommodating.

Great hotel, friendly staff, perfect location, could not have asked for more.

Really nice hotel, staff are super friendly.

The staff are very friendly  and the cleanliness of the hotel is good.

But from the moment we fumbled our way through our first greeting at this very special Parisian hotel, we were made to feel relaxed and welcome by the very friendly staff.

Really nice hotel in all aspects :
- Extremely friendly and helpful staff, as well at the reception as during breakfast.

The staff was very friendly and me feel like a part of their family.

Recommend for location, friendly staff, cleanliness and some fantastic photos!

Overall it's a gorgeous hotel and the choice of rooms are exciting and then bathrooms are luxurious and the staff is very friendly and welcoming 

The staff was super friendly and very nice welcomed us with a drink of water , juice or coffee - I opted for a cappuccino which was delicious.

I’m struggling to recall a more helpful, friendly group in any hotel.

The staff is very friendly and welcoming.

A quick word on the staff as well who were amazing, very friendly, welcoming and professional.

The staff are friendly, the location is good and the rates are reasonable.

The hotel is amazing, - great location, lovely themed rooms with Jacuzzi and rainfall shower, spotlessly clean, great breakfast and most importantly the staff, - they were so helpful & friendly & this made our trip even more special.

I would like to emphasise high level of service they have: everyone is friendly and very helpful.

Staff was friendly and spoke English, and graciously offered us recommendations and directions to sights around Paris.

Attractions like the Louvre Museum were a short cab ride away.

The location was great for getting around the city with a choice of Metro stations and  plenty of cafe’s bars and restaurants nearby. Lovely little place to share some secrets too :)

There are tons of restaurants closeby plus the metro etc.

They recommended excellent French restaurants (such as the Bouillon Pigalle).

loved the bath, and the bedroom decor.the sound proofing ( room was right opposite a busy restaurant) is top class, didnot hear anything and slept really well.

Excellent location with easy access to the metro and plenty of cafes nearby.

A shortish walk up is Sacre Couer and some great restaurants.

There are plenty of bars and restaurants near the hotel too.

We ate a few times at an authentic Italian restaurant named Caratello nearby (10 min walk),

Close to the moulin rouge ( which I seriously recommend ) near restaurants and bars.

He made some excellent dinner suggestions for us and his personality was superb!

Plenty of wonderful cafes and restaurants are in the neighborhoods surrounding Hotel Design Secret de Paris.

Plenty of great restaurants to eat at nearby.

It's in a great location and walking distance to many sites with great restaurants nearby for dinner.

The location was within walking distance to many fine restaurants and the city center.

Was nice to have a restaurant right across the street.

I could walk to try all the best value food nearby - top ranking restaurants within 10 mins walk .

Only a short walk to moulin rouge and lots of good food within walking distance.

Hotel has good location, grocery store, bakeries and places to eat nearby.

We opted for the breakfast in the room on our stay, the choice was amazing and the food perfect and very tasty!

The room was nicely decorated (by themes) and of good quality.

I really like the concept of naming and designing the room based on a landmark (Eiffel Tower in my case).

The room was made to resemble the Eiffel Tower.

We came to stay for a long weekend with some friends and arriving early were warmly greeted and informed that our rooms were ready.

Our room was lovely, clean and serviced on a daily basis; it was great to have a jacuzzi in our en suite.

a massage while in the room bubble bath shall earn you everlasting gratitude!).

We arrived at mid-day and as expected our room wasn’t ready.

Our luggage had been delivered to the room already.

The rooms are all so unique and well thought out and feature all the amenities that you'd want!

but perfectly formed) we chose a room with a stunning shower, but others have jacuzzi baths.

The room was comfortable too - with blackout curtains, and a powerful shower.

My gf and I stayed in the Musee d'Orsay room and it was amazing, not to mention the Jacuzzi: unbelievable.

A little too dark with red & heavy curtains (should have paid €10 more per room night to get room Musee D'orsay which might be brightly lit).

but can not believe the reviews are so positive, it might be unique but totally impractical, we moved to a more central location, to a cheaper room without the glass toilet after one night.
