  Good midrange hotel worth its good reviews

  Perfectly good 3rd floor room with all facilities and comforts. Good value as picked it from Tripadvisor. Expensive taxi ride to get here but you can travel from Gare du Nord on the very frequent bus which stops about 100m away. Metro station 2 mins walk as well. Breakfast looked overpriced but this is PAris - the caff on Rue Amelot did a good one for 8 Euro. The location looks a little off the track unless you use Google or Citymapper to work out journey times when you realise it is far from that. And the staff are helpful with decent English, not that it was needed. I shall be staying here again soon.

  Lovely Parisian Hotel

  Fantastic room, a lot larger than expected, really comfy bed, really clean, fabulous location, and super friendly staff. Easy access to the metro and local tourist area, including restaurants, shopping and would definitely stay here again.

  Decaying hotel with misleading advertising...

  In a nutshell, this hotel is not up to scratch and totally overpriced for what it offers. The images they advertise are misleading and completely different to the real situation in the four standard rooms we saw - all called "junior suite" by the staff... The bathroom is tiny with dirty, cracked and scratched sanitary ware, chipped door frames, etc. The breakfast is very poor, the room crowded so we just took away two small and soggy croissants. The location is okay but it's not in the nice part of the Marais. Apparently, they have 263 rooms, most of which are at the back in different building blocks situated around a long courtyard. Professionally, the place doesn't seem to be run as a major hotel but rather as a mass processed service apartment building. More detailedly, we had booked a Junior Suite via Voyage Prive for £300. When we arrived just after midday (12pm local time) our room was not ready. We left our case and advised that we would be back late as we had a programme planned. When we returned at 10pm we were told that we are in block Gaughin A but on entering our room it didn't look anything like a Junior Suite let alone like the internet image. The room was fairly small and dingy with a third "emergency bed" shoved in an alcove. The furnishings are dated and uninviting with a lingering smell. We then looked at another two rooms (in block Eiffel) before settling in a room on the third floor (back in block Gaughin A) which seemed sufficiently away from the echoey courtyard where everyone walks and pushes their trollies through. With hindsight I wish, we'd read the 1*/2** reviews before because they sum up our impression perfectly. Thankfully, we only stayed one night as an unpleasant hotel experience can very affect your stay.

  Disappointing. Not a 4-star!

  Not a 4-star hotel! Brilliant location, but so dated and tired, cheap and tacky. Rooms are distasteful and drab; coffee machine, but no coffee, chipped enamel in bathroom, no robes, no vanity mirror. Sold on photos of the courtyard garden - but the aesthetic stops there. Walls are paper thin. We stayed in the Eiffel block, which my husband tagged ‘Awful block’. Le Marais forever, but never again Les Jardins.

  A Comfortable 2 Week Stay in Paris

  I stayed at the Hotel Du Marais from 12/07/20, in the heart of Paris, with a large group of travelers organized by Road Scholar. The location of the hotel was excellent and the support provided by the desk could not have been better. The desk printed directions to my day's itinerary by subway almost daily. My room was more than adequate with a good bed/mattress, a bathtub, and great room acoustics so I was able to sleep well. I would definitely go back and I do recommend the hotel.
