Holiday Inn St Germain Des Prs, Paris

What a lovely hotel! The service was excellent (especially Ivana and Andrea at the front desk), the room was beautiful and very comfortable for a triple room. The rain shower was a huge hit with my family. The hotel's location is great and everything is within walking distance but you are away from touristy areas. Very quiet and we slept great. The air conditioning was appreciated. Loved it and can't wait to return! I would highly recommend this hotel.

The Holiday Inn St. Germain is located on a small side street close to the Montparnasse tower. My brother and I stayed here for 3 nights while in Paris. We chose this hotel because our French is not very good and we trust the American hotel brand. Coming in from CDG we took the RER B train to the Gare du Nord station and connected to the #4 Metro towards Porte d'Orleans. The hotel is 1/2 block from the St Placide Metro stop on line 4. The front desk staff spoke English and check-in was simple. We had prebooked the rooms online at the nonrefundable price of 117 euros/night. There are two small elevators that go to the floors. We were on the fourth floor. The room was small for American standards but big enough. There were two small beds, desk, two chairs, mini bar fridge, closet and bathroom with tub/shower. The only complaint was the room looked a little dated. The location was very good for the price. Being that close to a Metro stop opens up all of Paris within 15 mins. The Metro only runs from 0500-0030LT. Less than a mile walk up rue de Rennes in the neighborhood to the left of St Sulpice church are a lot of bars and small restaurants. The English speaking bars we went to in this area were Coolin, Temple Bar, Frog and Princess and O'Neils. I recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a good value, and convenient location. We never ate the breakfast (18 euros a person) or drank at the hotel bar. There is plenty outside the door.

The room was really shabby, the walls were dirty and the bathroom had mold all around it. Since the closet had a common wall with the bathroom, it also had mold in it. I asked to change a room and they did me a great favor by giving me another room just like the previous one with no apologies and with no offer for some sort of compensation. The only thing good to say about this hotel is that there were hot water. I will never again set foot in this hotel again.

Although this is a standard Holiday Inn, the staff and the location were superb. Even with my fractured French they were very nice. Most of the staff is from other locales, Italy, Spain, Germany, so that makes it interesting as well and they will go out of thier way to help you with your French. I cannot say enough about the location, perfect, unless you have the $$$ to stay at Hotel Regina, you can't get much better. Not a ton of food choices in the hotel, just the bar area where you could get a salad or sandwhich but it was good and again, the staff was excellent. Got a deal through Air France Vacation but I would say the price is worth the admission. I have been to France/Paris many times and I still love this hotel

Great location! (not too touristy)lots of nice cafes and trendy shops around. Close to stations, so easy to get to main paris attractions. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Rooms were small but clean and nicely decorated. Comfortable bed. Breakfast was very nice. I would definately stay there again.

this hotel was superb! it catered for my every need! the food was gorgeous and the staff was very hepful! close enough to the citys sights. The decor in the rooms was furnished SPLENDID!

Anyone who's been to Paris knows how important location is and this hotel is in the perfect location. Only a 3-minute walk from the nearest Metro, this Excellent hotel is very clean, and very comfortable and overs very good service for the price. I would recommend it to anyone traveling to Paris to stay and enjoy!

This hotel is located in a very good area of the city. It is within easy walking distance from Rue de Renne, St Sulpice, and the beautiful Luxembourg Palace and gardens. It's also within medium walking distance to the Louvre, the Latin Quarter, and Notre Dame. The staff was exceptional and all spoke English, as well as Spanish to my wife's delight, (thank you Beatriz). The complimentary breakfast buffet rivals that of any hotel, and I've stayed in a few. If you're looking for a big expensive hotel, this is not for you. If you're looking for a great stay in a nice hotel with a wonderful, knowlegeable staff that won't break you, I recommend this hotel without hesitation. One quick warning though. The hotel is located on 'RUE de Vaugirard' not 'Boulivard de Vaugirard'. Make sure if you take a cab to stress this point, otherwise you'll end up in Monparnasse a few blocks away. Great stay!
