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."
