APOSTROPHE HOTEL, Paris

The hotel sits in the vibrant Montparnasse district, just a 5-minute walk from Montparnasse Tower. Vavin Metro (line 4) is 210 m away, connecting directly to the Louvre, Notre-Dame, and the Latin Quarter within 15 minutes. The River Seine is a 30-minute walk or 15-minute metro ride. Surrounding streets are filled with cafes, bistros, and restaurants including Le Relais de l'Entrecote and La Rotonde within 0.5 km. The area is considered safe and walkable, with Luxembourg Gardens nearby for a picnic or stroll. No on-site parking is available; the closest public car park is 30 m away.

Room sizes are compact, typical for central Paris. The open-plan bathroom design (toilet in a separate enclosed space) means the sink and shower or bathtub are within the bedroom. Some rooms have a bathtub only (no separate shower cubicle); rooms with a hydro-massage shower are available. Superior rooms may include a hot tub with chromotherapy. Rooms facing the street can experience some noise, while rooms on higher floors (5th floor and above) are quieter and may offer partial Eiffel Tower views from only two rooms (Femme and Paris-Paradis). Electric kettles are available in all rooms except standards (on request). The soundproofing is good but not absolute; light sleepers may prefer a room away from the reception area.

The breakfast offering includes fresh bread, croissants, butter, jam, Nutella, a hot drink, and fruit juice. There is no restaurant on site. A vending machine dispenses drinks, and coffee is available at reception for a small fee (€2). The surrounding streets offer a wide selection of cafes and bistros within a 2-minute walk, including Le Relais de l'Entrecote, La Rotonde, and many others. For those wanting a fuller meal, dinner options are plentiful in the neighbourhood. In-room breakfast can be requested the previous day, specifying a preferred time.

Some rooms (e.g., those with 'Pittoresque' or 'Apostrophe' designation) feature a bathtub with bubble jets and coloured lighting, offering a relaxing soak after a day exploring. The Luxembourg Gardens, a 5-minute walk away, provide ample green space for walking, picnics, and relaxation. The hotel's location in Montparnasse also places guests near the Montparnasse Tower observation deck for panoramic city views.

The 24-hour front desk provides concierge services, luggage storage (free, available before check-in and after check-out), safety deposit boxes, and daily housekeeping (including ironing service). The hotel is wheelchair accessible: the entrance, reception, and one ground-floor room (Sheherazade) are adapted. A lift serves all floors. Air conditioning is available in all rooms. A vending machine for drinks is located in the lobby. Free filtered still and sparkling water is available from a dispenser in the reception area. The hotel does not have a laundry machine on site. Guests must leave their room key at reception when leaving the property; it is collected upon return.
