LA LOUISIANE

I had my e-reader stolen (there wasn't anything else valuable in the room). It's honestly a miracle I'm giving this place two starts. The building itself is nice (besides the fact that there is absolutely no sound-insulation, you can hear the rooms immediately next to you, especially when they run the water (that means they can hear you too) and the same goes for the corridor). They have a little reading room with books (they're old, I like old books), the stairs creak, there are nice paintings hung around the main staircase. There is a Carrefour close by. So as long as you carry all your valuables with you and aren't bothered by the fact that a stranger can (and apparently quite likely will) gain access to your room, it's alright I guess.

Good location in the heart of the 6th. Lots of clubs and restaurants right on the corner and on the street but surprisingly little noise. Very basic: small bed with one blanket and pillow. Small but clean bathroom. My room’s walls were graffitied, I hat graffiti. Carpets in halls dirty and mismatched. For this price point and location, perfectly fine especially if you’re going to be exploring Paris all day.

I want to love this hotel for the mere fact of location, friendly staff, and affordability. However, this hotel needs a lot of work. My wife and I knew what we were getting into when we looked up the hotel and photos of it, however in person it can be extremely daunting. The hallways leading up to your room is really bad. It looks really old, un-maintained and run down, and had a weird smell. The room however, was extremely clean, we had no complaints there. We were barely in the hotel, just to sleep and recharge for the next day, so it was not an impediment upon our stay, but I would like fellow travelers to be aware.

Great location. I like to walk, and I could get anywhere I wished. The simple amenities provided worked well for me. The bedding was good quality, and I could soak in the bath. I do not expect Paris to be quiet, but twice I had a room on the Rue de Buci, and it was noisy until 4 am. Get a room on the courtyard 'si possible'. It is easy to get great, fresh food within a short walk, and the Blvd. Saint Germain is just a half block. These places are converted rooming houses, so keep your expectations at bay, and you will enjoy while saving $$. I have stayed here many times, the most recent being July 2024.

There are cameras on each floor, keycards that show who has been in the room. Still management acted unprofessionally in this matter. Just informed me that cleaning lady had not taken them. I listen to music each night before sleep and did NOT take them outside of the room. Plus Bluetooth could not connect to them, so they were not in the room, I wrote a complaint to the hotel, while we were still there. Didn't receive an answer before I after 2 days, had returned home and requesting a reply to my complaint. They claimed the Airpods were found and they would leave them in the lost and found drawer at the hotel. NEVER had such a bad and unprofessional experience. Can not recommend this hotel in any way.

Location, location, location! It's not easy to find accommodations for a family of five, for a reasonable price, in Paris. Louisiane delivered -- though just barely! They gave us a room with one queen and two twin beds, and we had to do some creative bed-making to make this useable for parents with three young teens, but it worked. The room was eclectic, weirdly-shaped, and charming, just like the Latin Quarter itself; we loved the rooftop view, and the tiny bathroom with its soaker tub! Five-star resort? Definitely not. The place is old and budget, and you won't be overwhelmed with luxury amenities. But it's full of character and history, a building crammed with the stories of the lives lived inside it, and you can feel them. Every type of restaurant and attraction you could want is within an easy walk, the streets hopping with nightlife. Highly recommend if you want a taste of "real" Latin Quarter. Fantastic experience!
