3.0
"This hotel gets its name because it is literally one guestroom. Clearly designed to set a romantic mood for guests, the room offers scent choices... and a common area dubbed "the dance floor"." Full review
Travel + Leisure
"Located in the Latin Quarter near the small cafés and open-air market of busy Rue Mouffetard, the Five Hotel aims to cater to every sense." Full review
Time Out
"The rooms in this stunning boutique hotel may be small, but they're all exquisitely designed, with Chinese lacquer and velvety fabrics." Full review
Gayot
"Conceived as a love nest, the One By The Five is not your usual hotel. This single-suite property contains six rooms spread over 45 square meters."
BlackBook
"Boutique design hotel with a different personality (and matching aroma) in each room. Fiber optic lights in the rooms create a "rain of stars" effect, and there's Chinese lacquer everywhere."
Fodor's
