“There's a certain charm to find a hotel embracing its history right in the Marais district near Place de la Bastille. While some may find the small rooms and elevator quirks a bit much, the complimentary wine upon arrival strikes me as a genuinely welcoming touch. I think it makes a solid base for exploring the city, especially with its proximity to several metro lines.”
