Hôtel Monte Cristo

The communication with the hotel, prior to arrival, via booking.com messenger was excellent. I had actually booked Hotel Vinci, but cancelled and changed to Monte Cristo, due to their lack of proper communication. Monte Cristo booked us hotel transfers prior to arrival, gave me hotel recommendations, booked our pool access, and were on hand at all times to answer all questions to allow us to fully enjoy the experience! We were also very grateful for the excellent cleaning service provided through our stay. Our room was kindly cleaned and replenished daily, a lovely treat after a days exploring the city. We found the room beautiful and very Parisian, the size was very good - we booked the deluxe, I believe a lot of rooms in Paris are small, this room size and bathroom were perfect. The window doors opened up beautifully as shown in the images. We slept very comfortably. We walked into the stunning Latin Quarter daily, the popular Rue Mouffetard area had the best vibe and was so safe and welcoming. I found all Parisians more than happy to help and be kind, the streets immaculate. We found the best way to get around the city was to download the Vélib app and to cycle using the electric bikes. Minimal effort required and cycle lanes everywhere. Tip - green bikes are manual, teal colour electric. There is a drop off / pick up point end of our street. I wouldn't recommend Lime bikes as they need to be left within Paris city boundaries, not as far up as Latin Quarter. Would also recommend Bateaux Parisians evening meal cruise with a window seat - pre book online & hotel will book you taxi. Also recommend cycling to Montmartre, absolutely stunning! Although cycle fast via 10th Arr. Moulin Rouge is also over this side. I found the metro intimidating so electric bikes were our choice of travel.

There is so much to live! First the warm, welcoming staff were so precious! Especially, Serena who deserves a raise for her excellent hospitality! She helped me so much with learning about Alexander Dumas, recommending cute French restaurants & finding my way to the Dinosaur museum! I’m extra grateful for her time & energy. Also, the pool & sauna are so lovely! Perfect for all the walking around!! My room was so clean & fresh and the bed was like a cloud!! I had a lovely sleep!!

Lovely boutique hotel.. such really nice staff.. Barman amazing…spotlessly clean and lovely products, dressing gowns and slippers… pool and sauna..lovely added extra… lovely bars and restaurants near by.. 😊

Felt very luxurious, loved the interior design jn tge reception & bar/breakfast room, a kind of 1930s colonial tropical theme. Indoor pool was great, warm towels included. Max 4 people allowed as its long but narrow so not easy swimming past people. We went at 9.30pm so had it to ourselves. Gorgeous bathroom, made me want to copy it in our own home! Comfortable bed, great antique armoire. Breakfast incredible. Very high quality food, even smoked salmon & poached eggs available. Beautifully presented on the bar area & hot drinks delivered to the table by staff.

Lovely room. Great location. Good bathroom. Nice to use the pool and sauna. Friendly staff. Enjoyed the balcony views. The rum concept bar was also fun, would recommend trying at least once.
