An Absolute Gem in the Heart of Saint-Germain – A Perfect Anniversary Stay

We had the pleasure of staying at Hotel de l’Abbaye Saint-Germain to celebrate our 30th anniversary, and I can’t imagine a more perfect Parisian experience. We booked the apartment-style room, which felt like a total unicorn in Paris—a two-level suite! The main floor had a cozy and elegant living room with a fireplace, a desk, a comfortable sofa, and a full bathroom. Then up a charming spiral staircase to the bedroom level, where we were greeted by a king-size bed (yes, a king bed in Paris!), another desk and sitting area, and a half bath. It felt more like a romantic Parisian pied-à-terre than a hotel room.

The hotel itself oozes that 6th arrondissement charm—all the magic of Saint-Germain, but with refined touches of luxury and whimsy. You’re not in some sterile chain hotel—you’re in Paris, and you feel it in every detail: the garden courtyard, the classic yet cozy decor, and the warm, personalized hospitality.

The front desk staff were delightful—kind, helpful, and genuinely invested in making our stay special. Housekeeping was delightful and impeccable including an Angelina's sweet on our pillow every.nIght. The breakfasts were divine: buttery croissants, perfect coffee, exquisite jams… and don’t even get me started on the butter—I’m still talking about it.

Location? You can’t beat it. Just steps from Luxembourg Gardens, Saint-Sulpice, and Le Bon Marché (the best shopping in Paris, hands down). You’re within walking distance of all the top brasseries, boutiques, and Left Bank landmarks, and it’s an easy ride to the more tourist-heavy 1st arrondissement—but trust me, you’ll want to come “home” to the 6th every time.

This hotel is romance, charm, and pure Parisian soul. We’ll be back, again and again.

Merci, Hôtel de l’Abbaye, for an unforgettable anniversary. ????

What a pity that after years of coming to this hotel for breakfast & tea, since I live in the neighborhood for the past decade, the hotel just decided that they NO LONGER ALLOW DOGS inside. My heart is broken for this treasured gem destroyed for me and my well-behaving dog who, only a couple of weeks ago, used to sleep at my feet while I meet friends here for breakfast. What a tragic decision on the part of the hotel!

A nice hotel surrounded by a beautiful internal garden with a fountain where it is nice to have breakfast. The staff is very attentive and courteous. The Hotel inside is all covered in carpet. It's not ideal if it is not kept properly. Having recently returned from Japan, where everything is super clean, I was struck by the carpet in our room, it was full of stains. Rooms are not very big, I had a superior Double Room La Parisienne, I had only one suitcase, if I had another one, there would have been no space to move.|I would have paid what I paid for the amenities, but not for the room, too bad, such a nice place!

Hospitable small hotel located a few blocks from both Les Deux Maggot and Bon Marche It is a perfectly run hotel with a nice breakfast and tea. Prices are moderate compared to not only the right bank but the newer hotels on the left bank. Recommended for a Paris home Must make reservations directly with hotel. Be sure you are clear on arrival and departure dates

Hôtel où le service est impeccable
