Hôtel Des Mines

Room was good value, staff courteous and friendly (good for those who don't speak French, although I managed with my proficient level of French). About a 20-minute walk to the Seine (for those who are good walkers, we were a little older so Line B Metro/train got us there, or to the main transfer point).

The 15 euro breakfast was pricey for what we got. Tried it once. Not to put the onus on this hotel, but I wish more hotels offered self-service laundry. We had to wash laundry in the sink, but again, I'm NOT holding it against just this hotel. We packed compactly.

Good location, friendly staff and cheap and tasty breakfast. The beds were comfortable.

Check in was at 3pm but when we arrived at 4pm and were given the keys to our room they were still cleaning it. Hotel was very apologetic and gave as free breakfast as compensation.

It was a small little place near the city center. The bed was comfy and the staff were all extremely helpful and nice. We primarily used it just go sleep, we didn't have breakfast and we were out and about. We got a balcony room and the view was great (you can't see any of the major attractions of Paris, but you get a nice view of the architecture and good for people watching). The best thing about it was how close it was so bus stops, RER, and the metro some what. To add to the RER big, the B line of the RER takes you straight to both Paris airports (for Orly, you have to take transfer bus/ train). This was great for us first time visitors because we didn't have to transfer or walk for long distances. We never had to walk more than 10 minutes to find the right public transport. For us it was exactly what we needed. We also knew ahead of time the rooms were small so it didn't bother us much.

As stated above the rooms were small. As in very small, it didn't bother us, but I know some people maybe not like it. The only thing that caught us off guard was how tiny the shower was, but we found it amusing.

It is a nice small hotel with specific French vibe. We had our room on the last floor, which was lovely, although the room was small. All the necessary amenities were present in the room, which was clean. The location is great, 5 min walk to Jardin du Luxembourg, 15 minutes to Pont Neuf and many subway stations. Buses are available right near the entrance.

The room is too small, especially that we had a wooden thing above our heads, but otherwise everything was lovely. I had a payment use so the hotel charged twice for one night, but it was solved quickly, in two days, so this is a very good sign on how the staff communicate with the customers! I appreciated that.

Nice single room with en suite bathroom (small). Entirely suitable for my stay. A very short walk to the Luxembourg RER ensuring good connection with all the rest of Paris. I purchased a NAVIGO card from a Metro station and this proved very convenient and best value in using the RER / Metro. Excellent continental breakfast each morning - €15.00 per breakfast (and good value). Good convenience shops in the vicinity of the hotel. Staff very efficient and helpful at all times.

No complaints.

Loved the location. Close to Luxembourg for the RER to the airport. Close to all the Latin Quarter attractions eg Jardin du Luxembourg across the road, 5 minute walk to the Panthéon. Overall a good base to get anywhere in Paris. Lots of places to eat and drink in the area too. Staff were friendly.

Room was in a converted attic space and had a wooden beam running through it which made the room seem very small and my 6 foot tall husband had to duck a lot 😀 On the plus side, room was spotless and by Paris standards, not that small - just felt that way because of the beam. Bed very comfortable and virtually no noise from the main road below.

Amazing location. Can walk to so many sights from the hotel. Right beside Luxembourg station which is very convenient for CDG airport and Gard de Nord. Lots of places to eat close by, Luxembourh Gardens and the mineral museum are just donw the street. Just a 25-30 minute walk to the the Louvre and D'Orsay museums. Rooms were really clean. We were able to leave our bag for safe keeping upon check out, and use the restroom in the lobby after returning at 6 PM. Would highly recommend this hotel.

The shower was in the bathtub. There was no shower mat or anti slip strips in the bathtub so it was very slippery when showering and stepping into and out of the tub. Please add a rubber bath mat or antislip strips to the bathrub.

The hotel was quiet even though It was on a main street, the hotel was bright and clean with great service at the desk and meal room. The room was clean with plenty of natural light, good water pressure, and a comfortable bed. Breakfast was well priced with fresh cooked bread. I would stay here again.

I think it's just because it's Paris, the room is small compared to the Australian rooms 😂 Otherwise the hotel was great.

Location and great restaurants and supermarkets around. The staff was helpful and pleasant. Everywhere was clean.

The rooms were tiny but that is to be expected in Paris. Also a small issue is that I am allergic to nuts and the liquid soap in the shower was almond soap so I had soap in my bag that the family used - you had to turn sideways to even get into the shower and we arent large-bodied people.

I selected this room for the location…it is only a 5 minute walk to the metro line B which connects to everything! The hotel is very clean and met our needs, but a little small for three people, and the bathroom is really small. The staff was very friendly and helpful, the room was really quiet, and the breakfast was good. The location made it easy to get the metro to the airport at the end of our stay. It also had a nice elevator.

As a double room I would have given this hotel a 10, but the room was a little small to be for three people. It made it hard to open even one suitcase!
