Hotel Academie

Hotel Academie was better than hoped for. The location, 2 blocks from the Seine, 4 blocks from the Louvre Museum, was excellent. Going in the other direction, Metro was 2 blocks away, great cafes and stores for shopping. Great chocolate shop next door, expensive but great quality. Staff all spoke English well, were very helpful and pleasant. The only drawback in 5 nights was the cleaning person did not leave new rolls of toilet paper or new shampoo the last 2 days, we ran out of both. Room was small, but comfortable, and who stays there for very long anyway. Just to sleep, bathe, and change clothes. Bathrooms were fine, had jacuzzi tub and needed it after long days of Louvre, and other explorations.

We stayed in this hotel over Easter 2012. We found this hotel to be extremely comfortable with very friendly and helpful English speaking staff. Our room wasn't very big, but it was spotlessly clean and the bed was extremely comfortable allowing for good sleep. The shower room was tiny and I could just about fit in the shower! There are bigger rooms, but we were very happy with ours. We didn't hear any other guests apart from when they allowed their doors to slam. Other than that it was very peaceful. The location of this hotel is perfect for getting around. It took us about 10 minutes to walk to the Musée d’Orsay and about 15 minutes to walk to the Notre Dame. The little side streets of Saint Germain are really charming with lots of restaurants and cafes. We found the metro station at Rue de Bac ( approx 7 mins walk) to be the easiest to get to anywhere in the city. The receptionist ordered a shuttle bus to take us back to the airport on our last day. We will definitely recommend this hotel to our friends and hope to return again very soon.

We originally booked a standard room, but when we arrived the front desk clerk looked at me and said I probably wouldn't like the room because of my height. We upgraded to a larger room which was small but cozy. The upgraded also provided a free breakfast which was fabulous so we didn't mind the additional cost per night (29e). The location was perfect for getting around. The staff also recommended two restaurants nearby that turned out to be spectacular. We will stay there again in the future.

We had a wonderful experience with small , quaint ,fabulous hotel. Their friendly, professional staff is always their to assist you any way they can. Each room is unique and all decorated with magnificent taste. The location is wonderful, short walking distance to The Louvre, Norte Dame , Orsay Museum and the water taxies on the Seine. Only two blocks away is great shopping and all kinds of restaurants on the Boulevard Saint Germain. We are recommending this hotel to all are friends , along with booking this hotel for our Paris trip in 2013.

Staff is wonderful;junior suite is nice and roomy and quiet; location is within walking distance of many sights and shopping.

This was a great place. The desk staff was exceptionally helpful. They spoke English which made it much easier for us. It was close to a lot of restaurants and the sights. It was fun just to walk through the streets and window shop. I would definitely stay here again.

The Hotel was very charming, cozy, and clean. Location was perfect! can't wait to go back!

Fantastic staff at reception. Pretty looking, but tiny room. Quite expensive, but the area is expensive. Shower is the smallest I've ever seen. Mattress could be more comfortable.

Great location on left bank and close to everything, walking to Musee d' Orsay, Louvre etc. Junior suite worth having for extra space.

Excellent support from staff. Appreciated the free use of the internet, especially as we were caught by the Icelandic volcanic ash. Suggested improvements: hot water availability in room for drinks.
