Hôtel Emile Le Marais

“A wonderful little hotel in a fantastic location”

We loved our short stay at Hotel Emile! The staff was so helpful when we found on checking in that Expedia had cancelled our reservation (although I had received a confirmation/reminder about our stay 3 days prior?) and found us a room at the same rate we had been expecting. Such a relief and so appreciated! The room was very small but so cute and lovely — the big windows and balcony are perfect. The location was fantastic and staff super friendly. Highly recommend!

Our experience started when we first entered the lobby and was met by Gwendolyn. She was very pleasant and genuinely happy to meet us. The “lobby” was an open room to the front entrance and it was where you could meet other guests for breakfast or a comfortable place to sit and watch people out of the big front windows. Breakfast was very tasty and the same every morning. 7am to 10am. Fresh squeezed orange juice was a nice touch along with a selection of teas and different kinds of coffee and hot chocolate. A selection of pastry and bread and I’d highly recommend the flaky chocolate buns which were just so delicious. We had originally booked a room no higher than the 3rd floor but we were moved to a room on the 6th floor which turned out to be perfect. The room was a decent size for two people with an adequate amount of shelving and closet space. We both had just carry on size luggage and they fit into the cupboards. The beds were comfortable and we both slept well. We had two twin beds that were basically pushed together but it worked for us. We both wore earplugs at night so can’t really attest to the noise of the hotel in the middle of the night. I used the elevator everyday and it was only good for one person with a small amount of luggage. I didn’t have to wait long at all for it to come to me. As a bonus we had our own private balcony which we took advantage of everyday. I was nice after a long day to come back and sit outside for a bit and just people watch. The shower area was actually quite good and was semi private. It was definitely a wet room with the shower and sink in one space. It was spotlessly clean and the toilet was in a separate room. A lot of reviews state that the shower area was open and in the room but this particular room (61) was not like that. The location being in Marais was the best you can get for walkability and restaurants. There is a subway entrance across the street but we didn’t use it as we could walk and enjoy our surroundings. The only places we didn’t walk to was the Eiffel Tower and the Champs Élysées and we took an Uber. There is also a grocery store across the street which was handy to pick up a few things. If you’re a woman coming to shop for pharmacy skin care there is a very well appointed pharmacy just across the street. I would definitely stay here again for all the reasons mentioned.
