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."

Concierge
"Is it really as ritzy as the name would imply? That's a definite yes—after all, the adjective itself derives from this 161-room hotel."

Ask for the dusty-rose-tinted Elton John suite under the eaves.
DK Eyewitness
"A legendary address, the Ritz still lives up to its reputation, combining elegance and decadence."
