“Perfect Location”

Delightful staff,.Excellent location near metro, trains and buses, and restaurants, It is in an old section in the middle of paris, but hotel has been updated and is a pleasant environtment. Complimentary breakfast is available.

“Great little hotel!”

Clean hotel, hotel staff spoke english and very helpful and friendly, giving us directions and recommendations for dinner. Hotel is great location for exploring old Florence but far enough away that it is still great value!

“Excellent!”

Just lovely! I couldn't complain about a thing. The staff were friendly and helpful, the room was clean, the bed was comfortable, the shower and lift worked well, the wifi was free and functional. The location is great, on a quiet street just around the corner from a metro station and a couple of supermarkets. It's not terribly fancy, but it's got everything you need if you're looking for an affordable place to sleep and shower while in town.

“Would Certainly Stay Here Again”

We would certainly stay here again. The room was small as all our Paris hotels rooms have been but the bed was very comfortable, there was plenty of hot water, the hotel staff was helpful to even our offbeat requests -search for the NCAA basketball scores was graciously accommodated. The access to metro and bus is terrific. We especially liked the location in a neighborhood where we could frequent the local restaurants, bars and shops. There were several good local Bistros and Brassieries. The patisserie down the street was excellent with a good butcher shop across the street. We spent several late afternoons with a pichet of wine and cafe eclair, sitting at the local bar, watching the world go by. The hotel is on a quiet street and provided a lobby area where we could sit and talk and had a lovely patio if the weather had been better we would have used more. There is an easy walk to the Luxembourg Gardens and interesting street life, but we liked staying in a place where parents walked their kids to the school next door and the shop owner remembers that you order the same thing everyday.

“C'est mon 2ème séjour dans cet hôtel : j'y retournerai”

Hôtel idéalement situé car à proximité de la gare Montparnasse et du lieu de départ des navettes vers les aéroports, dans un quartier calme, agréable et festif. Personnel très serviable.

“Very happy with this hotel”

Our first trip to Paris, and we found L'Orchidee to be a good value. This place is nice and clean albeit on the compact size (almost everything in Europe is fit tightly, we found). The staff were really nice and friendly, helping me to solve for our 110 volt deficiencies, and calling for taxi when requested. The room was clean and comfortable, nice window and view to the street. I even liked the breakfast deal and set-up. Paris' great subway system just around the corner, giving us quick access to anywhere in the city, but the Montparnasse section where L'Orchidee is located is really interesting too. I thought we had great bang for our buck, and would stay there again.

“Nice stay”

Very quiet hotel in a very convenient location

“Just fine”

convenient, reasonable rates, quiet enough if not on the street-side, some staff helpful and friendly (not all), close to plenty of metro stations, shops, cafes, and restaurants, and the Gare Montparnasse

“good hotel”

The cleanliness of the rooms can be improved.

“Pleasant hotel in nice neighborhood”

This hotel, just a bit off the usual tourist haunts, is inexpensive, but a good find for Paris. The Eiffel tower can be seen from the upper story rooms, which have a breeze even on the hottest summer nights. This was also one of the few places for the price where you get a full-size bed, not a pair of twins pushed together. Dine at one of the small local restaurants along Rue De L'Ouest or the larger ones along Avenue du Maine. Also nearby are banks, an internet cafe, and a coin laundry.
