Michelin Guide
Star
"The Celadon becomes the Petit Celadon at the weekend, with a simplified menu and more relaxed service."

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
