Artus Hotel

Paris Hotel Review

Artus Hotel

Paris, France

Price: $$$-$$$$

Travels with Friends Charm Rating: 81

Details- This hotel is located on a bustling street in the Saint Germain part of the Latin Quarter. The area offers lots of nice cafés set among small designer and gift boutiques. The hotel wins our "artsy design" award. From the moment you enter you feel as though you are in a modern art museum rather than a hotel. The prices are a little high for a 3 star hotel, but there are many 4 star touches, and you will be mingling with a fashionable crowd! The price range reflects the size of the room and the choice of shower (lower price) or bath (higher).

Notes- The stylish lobby is large and includes internet access. The cute breakfast room works double time as a coffee bar during the day. The art theme is carried into the 27 rooms with bold colors on the walls, large headboards and fun modern art pieces. Amenities include cable modem, TV, safe and mini bar. The bathrooms have modern fixtures and include hair dryers and lovely toiletries. The art flowers into what looks a bit like a graffiti mural in the stairwell. Look for the tiniest matches in the world available in the lobby, and my favorite touch: the doorknob sign that reads, "Go Ahead, Make My Bed".
