"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."
Frommer's "The low rates make the rooms a great value. This is a place for the young and hip, and the bar is a local hot spot." Full review
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."

Rough Guide "The designer’s hallmark joie de vivre reigns in the seventeen rooms, each a fusion of different styles."
Michelin Guide "Every bedroom is a delight, with vibrant tones and free-standing bathtubs."
Concierge "Hipsters love the location, the laid-back atmosphere, and the lushly funky Baroque look that is Lacroix's signature."
Insight Guides "This fashionable hotel in the Marais was designed by Christian Lacroix using sumptuous fabrics and screen-printed trompe l'œil to create comfort and individuality."
Lonely Planet "This quiet little hotel has 27 good-sized rooms, with toilet and bath or a shower in both a main building and a garden annex." Full review
Lonely Planet "This scrumptious 17-room hotel, a bakery at the time of Henri IV, was designed from head to toe by Christian Lacroix." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Fantastically located in the trendsetting Upper Marais, this former boulangerie in a 17th-century building has been redone by Christian Lacroix." Full review
Time Out "Within striking distance of the hip shops around rue Charlot, this turn-of-the-century façade masks what was once the oldest boulangerie in Paris, lovingly restored as a boutique hotel." Full review
Star Service " Here, Mr. LaCroix takes the concept of layered, overly coordinated toile du joie and turns it on its ear. If this hotel were a bumper sticker it would read, "Question Authority." " Full review
Gayot "Given that this Marais District hotel was designed by Christian Lacroix, it's no surprise that it's a bit over the top."
