Star
"Designer hotel for Bohemians, with old parquet and a deliberately sleazy Pigalle porn theme... You’re paying for fashion and atmosphere here, not service."
Frommer's
"This hotel oozes streetwise chic and attitude." Full review
Concierge
"André... has reworked this Montmarte building into a hip bobo... flophouse, where the 20 rooms bear the idiosyncrasies of different artists."
Insight Guides
"Perhaps surprisingly, it’s also friendly and reasonable value. Located in the Pigalle district, it attracts a fashionable clientele."
Star Service
"Guests should be aware that the hotel's namesake is not a light-hearted choice, and the unusual trend toward conversation-starting love themes is central to the hotel's popularity." Full review
Gayot
"This hotel features only twenty rooms, varying in size and each styles with a customized theme."
BlackBook
"A project of nightlife scion Thierry Costes, graffiti artist André, and restaurateur Emmanuel Delavenne, Hôtel Amour’s 20 unique rooms are among the most hyped in Paris."
Condé Nast Traveler
"André, the mono-monikered artist and nightlife impresario, has reworked this Montmartre building into a hip bobo (bohemian bourgeois) flophouse." Full review

Afar Magazine

Star
"An elegant hotel, dating back to the late nineteenth century, with faux marble columns in the reception area and airy, high-ceilinged rooms."
Fodor's
"A few of Paris' most prestigious palace hotels face the Tuileries... while the Brighton sits on the same prime real estate... it offers visitors a privileged stay for a fraction of the price." Full review
Insight Guides
"Recently restored, this hotel has several rooms that overlook the Jardin des Tuileries, and a reception area awash with gilt, marble and glass chandeliers."
DK Eyewitness
"A real insiders’ location, the Brighton provides a much-sought after Rivoli address without the sky-high prices."
Time Out
"With several rooms overlooking the Tuileries gardens, the Brighton is great value, so book well ahead for a room with a view." Full review
Star Service
"Its biggest appeal, aside from location, is its relatively low prices in a neighborhood of heavy-lifters such as its next-door neighbor, the ultraluxe Meurice." Full review
Frommer's
"Did someone say “view”? How about a panorama of the Louvre and the Tuileries gardens from your bed?" Full review
