  • I was told that this cabaret house still retains its vintage Bohemian French décor and furniture. The Red windmill and psychedelic lights on it, makes Moulin Rouge the most flamboyant Parisian site and I simply loved it....

The hotel was absolutely lovely, local area is one of my favourites in the city and the staff were amazing. The only thing was that the hotel is currently under renovations so there were small changes (portable heaters in rooms and physical keys rather than key cards) that were obviously outwith the hotel’s control- overall i’d recommend! merci beaucoup!!

The staff were amazing and very helpful! They arranged taxis for us and there was always water and some baked goods available. The breakfast was really nice and loved the atmosphere. The hotel was clean with a lot of amenities (just ask if you don't see it!) and the location was perfect for day trips using the subway or even walking. Would stay there again!

The hotel was wonderful, delicious hot selections and ample cold choices located in a unique decor. Location was excellent & easily walkable throughout Monmarte and central areas by the river. Walking from the Arc d'Triomph to the hotel took about 45 min & we felt very safe. It was about 20 min to walk, plus lots of steps, to Sacre Coeur. Our room was nice but small & to be expected for an older hotel in Paris. The Rudyard Kipling theme & portraits/artwork gave a unique vibe. Some street noise on a Fri night but also to be expected just blocks away from the Moulin Rouge. Staff were friendly & very helpful.
