"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
Oyster3.0
"It's on the pricey side for what it offers, but those interested in an erotic hotel experience may appreciate it for its novelty and trendiness." 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

"One of the most talked about hotels in Paris, Mama Shelter... justifies the hype."
Michelin Guide "Philippe Starck is behind the refined, fantasy decor in this huge hotel, which is at the cutting edge of contemporary design."

Fodor's "Don't expect an ounce of classical Parisian charm—the hotel is an experiment in quirky postmodern countercultural cool." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Designed by Philippe Starck, Mama Shelter is located in 20th arrondisement not far from Père Lachaise Cemetery." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This concept hotel designed by Philippe Starck offers exceptionally low prices for nonrefundable reservations; if you require flexibility the prices double."
Gayot "Shelters its guests with chic and distinctive design combined with creature comforts."
BlackBook "Rooms... cater to the young set with iMacs, unlimited new-release in-room movies and an on-premise eat-in or takeout pizza counter."

Lonely Planet "Coaxed into its zany new incarnation by uberdesigner Philippe Starck, this former car park offers what is surely the best-value accommodation in the city." Full review
