The hotel offers good service, and staff is helpful and friendly. The hotel location is good and the room and common areas are clean. The bedding was also clean and comfortable.

The room was very hot, as the air conditioning was not sized to cope with the summer temperatures. The room was small and the price was too high.

The staff were wonderful - friendly, obliging, patient, funny... I would come back for them alone! The location is superb: a stone's throw from the Pompidou Centre (which we could see from our balcony!) and the Hotel de Ville, surrounded by good places to eat and drink, but on a surprisingly quiet street. The beds were extremely comfortable. I would definitely come back for another Parisian mini-break!

The decor in the room was perhaps slightly dated and characterless (compared to the lobby, which is charming!), but it had everything we needed and was perfectly comfortable for two people. The hot water tank (I assume) is quite loud, but I expect this is just due to the age of the building.

Excellent location in the Marais close to numerous restaurants,museums, bistro's ans boutiques. .A true Parisian experience in a wonderful atmosphere .Excellent value for money.A quaint and beautiful family run hotel with exceptional service and helpful staff.Besides French, staff are all speaking english and went the extra mile during my stay .The knowledge of the owner and reception staff of neighbourhood restaurants and things to do is commendable!

The whole experience at this hotel was very french and good value for money.

The hotel is quirky, with a lovely lobby and stairway. The rooms are modern and basic, though they have everything you need such as hairdryer and plenty of pillows and towels. The location could not be more perfect, an easy RER transfer (B) from CDC or Orly airport and then a short walk from les Halles. But it's the area that really makes this hotel ideal; buzzing, cosmopolitan and friendly there was always something happening when you went outside no matter which direction you went in with plenty of local shops and restaurants. Notre Dame and St Chapelle are within easy walking distance and with plentiful metro stops you can get everywhere you need. Must say also the staff were lovely, 24 hour manned reception and always a friendly welcome. Can also commend the cleaning staff- room was spotless!

The rooms are a little basic and there was a little noise coming from other rooms as they are quite close together, but nothing that really disrupted our stay.

Very secure on a quiet street corner in Le Marais. Great staff. Had a family vibe. Nice elevator. 24-hour front desk. My housekeeper was phenomenal. I tend to convert a hotel room into a bachelor pad. Everyday she came through there like a white tornado or the Cat in the Hat. Sitting room on the first floor was really beautiful and furnished nicely. Bed was comfortable. I liked the tiled bathroom, every square inch tiled.

The air conditioner may have had a governor on it I couldn't really seem to get it to cool down the room although my room was still comfortable.

Location and staff perfect. Reception area on ground floor was stylish, luxurious looking and charming. A good sized working lift also much appreciated as not always available in the smaller Paris hotels. Room and bathroom were spotless and nice size but definitely more utilitarian in decor than the ground floor reception area/ communal staircase vibe of the hotel might lead you to expect.

would have been nice to have had some bottled water in the room. The rules about not having any food or drinks at all in the room was somewhat draconian. The continental breakfast (available to order as room service only) was a bit limited in offering though nice, and also punctual,- ie coffee, orange juice and croissant/ baguette with minimal butter and jam. No option even for yoghurt or fruit

Fantastic location in the heart of the lively Marais district, with its bars and restaurants and friendly, inclusive vibe. Also it's very close to many prime tourist attractions, as the Louvre, the Pompidou Centre, Notre Dame and Sainte Chapelle. The room is kept very clean and the WC/Shower is spacious.

Despite its quiet charm, cleanliness and friendly Reception staff, the Hotel Le Vieux Marais has no room service or facilities for in-house snacks or drinks, so it's disappointing not to have a small fridge, nor a kettle in the room.

great location and friendly staff

no fridge

The room was warm and clean. The staff was cleaning it and replacing towels every day. All staff were very friendly and nice to us. The hotel was quiet and we had no issues with noise. The bathroom had a little shampoo and shower gel that we could use. The room also had a hair dryer which was pretty good. The location was absolutely amazing!

The room was very dark. The window was within the skylight, so we couldn't even see the sky from our window. Even when it was sunny and bright outside, we didn't know until we were leaving the hotel or Google was telling us!

Excellent location. Common areas are pretty. Staff was nice. The hotel was clean and the room was silent. I loved having a bath tub in the room

Rooms are very comfortable, but not as pretty as the common areas in the hotel. A kettle in the room or a shared one in the hall for complimentary hot drinks would have made the difference, considering how chilly Paris is many months a year. Taking a shower was difficult because there was no shower curtains so you have to sit to take a shower, which might not be the best for someone with reduced mobility.
