Hôtel Jacques de Molay - Fitness & Sauna

They didn’t let me go eat because I didn’t have indoor footwear which was absolutely disgusting. The food looked poorly cooked and was practically raw. The room had stains everywhere and the piping system stunk. The workers could have been slightly nicer as their delivery about things was rather harsh. They offered very little outdoor activities and it would have been a more fun experience if the Chateau offered activities like manhunt and orienteering to schools. Overall, I’d say my experience was poor at best. The staff and rooms require improvement.

Great hotel in a quiet street! A little out of the centre but we love to walk and explore and prefer to be in a quieter location for peace at night! There were a few restaurants near by which were great. The hotel was gorgeous, the gym was okay but only used it once - I didn’t feel like it after walking 40k steps a day! The room was great, the air con was brilliant and so needed during the August heat! The reception staff were lovely and made us feel very welcome.

We stayed at this hotel for 5 nights in June. The main attraction was the location, as the Marais is our favourite area in Paris. The location was indeed excellent. There are countless cafes, restaurants, bars, supermarkets, food shops etc on your doorstep (notably on Rue de Bretagne). Plus the Marais is great because it does not feel overly touristy, and has more of a local Parisian feel. This hotel is also well located for transport, being close to a number of metro stations (Republique being most useful). We could get anywhere in Paris without much trouble. At the same time, the hotel is quiet, we were not disturbed by noise at all. The hotel itself is small and charming. The hotel is staffed at all times, which makes it feel very comfortable and safe, and the staff were always friendly, pleasant and helpful. We stayed in the superior room. We actually thought it would be smaller. Compared to our previous hotel rooms in big cities, the room was decent in size, and we didn’t feel too cramped at all. The room was always kept clean, and we appreciated the desk space, hanging space and bathroom space. However, there is no doubt that the room is expensive for what it is. I guess that is just Paris prices. We also used the hotel gym, which is very small with limited equipment but was sufficient and appreciated in a city where few hotels have gyms. Interestingly, the gym has a personal trainer so sometimes it can get busy with people training. We did not have breakfast at the hotel as there are plenty of breakfast options close by to the hotel. We would consider returning to the Hotel Jacques de Molay on our next visit to Paris.

This is a cute hidden gem in Paris close to the Republique metro stop. Here are the highlights: Staff- Emmanuel was at the front desk and SO KIND!! He was very knowledgeable and gave us great tips for navigating the city as well as where to avoid especially during last week’s protests. He went above and beyond. Everyone was super friendly and helpful but Emmanuel by far was our favorite The gym- there a squat rack…need I say more? Shower-the water gets really nice and HOT Breakfast-not included but perfect to get you on your sightseeing day Rooms-are SMALL. But, it’s Europe and everything is smaller. Beds are comfy. I can forgive the small room given all the other positives

Good Paris accomodations are expensive. I feel I got my money's worth at this hotel. It has many good things to mention. First of all, the location is fantastic in a great, historic neighborhood with lots to do, eat, and explore within walking distance. Plenty of nightlife. The desk staff was super-friendly and helpful. The room was nice, with a comfortable bed, nice contemporary decoration, a minibar, a kettle, and the hotel has fitness center. The breakfast was not very expensive compared with local restaurants. We were on the top (6th) floor. It was quiet. We had a small balcony with a far-off view of the Eiffel tower. The only negatives I can say are that the room doors do not have an electronic key and lock system. You have to remember to manually lock your door. And that they prefer you to leave your key at the desk. The clerks do not check your ID when you ask for the key on returning to the hotel. Anyone could ask for your key. An electronic key system would solve that. The last thing is that I would have liked larger towels. I would stay there again.

We booked a Deluxe room in this hotel. The room was small and there was very little wardrobe space. The bathroom door did not close properly and the bathroom itself was very small. We compared it with a normal standard room and that was bigger with a much better bathroom and more wardrobe space. We paid €60 more for the privilege of a worse room. When we mentioned this at reception, they did not seem to be interested.
