Grand Hotel des Balcons

Loved the location. Only a few minutes walk to Odeon station and bus stop. Very much in the heart of the St Germaine area which is just lovely. A nice boutique style hotel. Nice breakfast served each day and my room was perfect for me as a solo traveller and I felt very safe. One night I even got back after midnight with no issues. Staff were very helpful and kind and happy to share local knowledge. I would stay there again.

Great location in the quintessential Parisian district (6th arrondissement). Walking distance to the Luxembourg Garden, Pantheon, Ile de la Cite and even the Louvre. Plenty of stylish and classic Parisian cafes and restaurants in the neighborhood. The staff is helpful, polite and friendly. The room has everything needed and it is also comfortable.

This hotel was perfect for our first night in Paris. We would have stayed another night or two if we had known more about the area and how central and walkable it was to many sites around Paris. The room was small, but most hotel rooms at this price point in Paris are small. The room was clean, the staff was very nice and helpful, the area was very safe. We were able to leave our bags in the locked storage room until we were able to check in. They had a toilet and room where we could change and freshen up after our long flight from the US. This location is in walking distance to several tourist sites like the Luxembourg Gardens, Notre Dame Cathedral, Saint-Germain Blvd, and great options for food. The elevator has room for one person at a time, which is also very common. We had no issues with getting an Uber from the airport to the hotel in a timely manner. We would stay here again.

The hotel is in a great location, just a few minutes from the RER Luxembourg and Saint-Michel stations, and the Odeon metro, with lots of buses in the area. You can get anywhere very quickly. The sixth floor room is mansard, tiny, but has everything you need for a few nights stay. There is a mini balcony overlooking the street. The whole hotel is clean and quiet. The staff are completely neutral, one or two receptionists are smiling but generally they are not. Breakfast is continental, not a very wide selection, but perfectly ok.

The front desk staff were very pleasant and helpful with changes we needed to make to our booking. The cleaning staff and breakfast staffwere also pleasant. Purified water dispenser in breakfast area was a big plus. Accessible 24 hrs. Breakfast variety was good.
