Best Western Aramis Saint-Germain

This small hotel is actually family owned and operated. That single fact makes this Best Western experience worth the high rating. It is a small hotel that feels more like a boutique than a chain. It is clean and well managed. The staff at the front desk all speak English (along with other languages) and Andy (owner / manager) may be the hardest working (and nicest) hotel Manager I have ever met. He was helpful with every request. Expect small rooms and some without any view (though our upgraded room had two large windows opening to a quiet street). Both of our rooms had thermostats with strong AC, fast internet, and small, modern and very clean bathrooms. The Express breakfast with Coffee, fresh squeezed juice, and croissant at 6 Euro is a good deal considering a coffee alone is often 4 Euros in many shops. A taxi to the middle of Paris' zone of tourism is about 15 minutes and 10 Euros (depending on traffic) though we walked (about 30 mins) most days. There are cafe's immediately outside the hotel as well as a bakery and small shop (with wine, food and drinks). In the opposite direction from the river (a 10 minute walk) is an amazing area with large crowds and outdoor restaurants that spilling into the streets from everywhere you look. If you don't expect a Hilton in the heart of the Paris tourist district, you will enjoy this hotel. less

Stayed with my son. Very clean, decent breakfast. No issues to have breakfast early 6am. Food was already laid out but staff not yet in. Front desk guy made me coffee as the breakfast lady did not arrive till 7am. Convenient to St. Germain area. Some great little restaurants in area La Georgette was excellent. less

I love this hotel, staff very friendly & always smiling. Fast WIFI everywhere. Rooms are large enough, beds are comfortable, room is isolated from any noise, have a balcony, A/C is good specially is July, bathroom size is fine. Breakfast is good, but need some more varieties of cold cuts, as there's only one type. Location is amazing, Metro Station Saint Placide is in front of the hotel, street full of shops like H&M, Micromania, Etam, Pandora, Fnac, Benetton, Zara, Levi's, Also C&A but at the end of street in Montparnasse shopping center, also many restaurants & cafes around the corner. Overall we enjoyed our stay. less

I was thrilled to find this hotel. It was a great price and had AC which was a must for me in July/August. I was pleasantly surprised to find a lovely hotel, clean rooms, very comfortable, and still very French. It’s in a great location but our room was completely quiet. The rooms are small but there was a ton of places to put our stuff. They use the space very well. And the staff couldn’t have been nicer or more helpful. I just can’t say enough about it. We had a great experience all around! less

This is a great central hotel to enjoy your stay in Paris. Great bakery, cafe and bistro all downstairs. It is a family run business with the entire family being attentive and friendly and responsive to any needs you may have. Housekeeping was great and there is a breakfast available should you wish to pay a little extra for it. Overall, it truly exceeded my expectations. Do keep in mind the rooms are small in Paris no matter where you stay. Truth is, you shouldn't be spending too much time indoors :) less
