Rough Guide
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
"The brainchild of . . . a former graffiti artist and nightlife entrepreneur who worked with Parisian artists and designers to pull off an edgy balance of style and substance." Full review

Rough Guide
"A charming, quiet hotel set in an atmospheric period building at the end of a picturesque 1850s passage."
Fodor's
"A unique mainstay of the district, the Chopin recalls its 1846 birth date with a creaky-floored lobby and aged woodwork, with basic but comfortable rooms." Full review
Insight Guides
"A quiet, friendly hotel in an excellent location, in a 19th-century glass-and-steel-roofed arcade off the main shopping boulevards."
DK Eyewitness
"The well-loved Chopin gets fully booked far in advance due to its low prices, friendly welcome, and unusual location in a historic covered passage."
Time Out
"Handsomely set in a historic, glass-roofed arcade next door to the Grévin museum, the Chopin's original 1846 façade adds to its old-fashioned appeal." Full review
BlackBook
"This budget option near the Grands Boulevards may be a bit spartan, but its location in a glass-topped 1846 arcade delivers charm in spades."

"It's a bit of a disappointment to enter this old-fashioned budget hotel, which could do with some renovation." Full review

Editor's Pick
"Located inside a 19th-century shopping arcade, the two-star hotel offers comfortable rooms at reasonable rates, but it’s the setting that’s sure to make romantics happy." Full review
Frommer's
"Nestled at the back of the delightful Passage Jouffroy, this budget hotel has remarkably quiet rooms considering its location in the middle of the rush and bustle of the Grands Boulevards" Full review
Lonely Planet
"The rooms don’t have much in the way of personality, but the belle époque location is fabulous." Full review
