French Theory

I can only talk about the café, I wasn't a hotel guest. The menu is good, brunch all day. Resaonable prices for Paris. However the eggs were raw so we couldn't eat them and one of the staff members, she seemed to be in charge, was so rude that she ruined the experience. Such a shame because her colleague was sweet and the place was cozy.

We found this quaint cafe from a recommendation. Yiling was very friendly and spoke very good English. She made great flat whites. We had breakfast here on the two mornings we were in Paris. Both days breakfast was excellent. Yiling made us feel welcome and we would highly recommend this establishment. ✅✅👌👌 PS we did not stay at this hotel.

Having to book a room during fashion week at short notice, I thought I would give French Theory a try based on positive reviews. Location was fine. The aesthetics of the hotel are modern and appealing. My biggest issue was that the bed in the single room was so noisy with squeaky springs. I am far from heavy, average weight. But every time you rolled over, the bed creaked in the most noisy way. It felt like sleeping on a fold out bed. It made for the most disturbed nights sleep. I am sure fire doors are a regulation, but it also seems no one can close their room doors in those hotel without slamming them shut. If you’re noise sensitive like me, it’s a problem. I could literally hear the couple in the room next to me word for word and they weren’t even particularly loud. The noisy bed, slamming doors and thin walls put me off staying a second night and I checked out early to find another hotel.

We had a very good 6 night stay in this hotel. Staff are very friendly especially Igor (i hope i got his name right) who make us feel at home while we were there. Location is great and i would say facilities and the room are adequate and value for money. We will stay here again!

I was super happy and comfortable with my stay here. The team was super kind and friendly. I wasn’t feeling well and she guided I could use the couch in their lounge to rest- slept like a baby for 2 hours. Check in was efficient and was also offered an upgrade. There’s plenty common space to lounge and work. The room was spacious, clean and well kept. Location is an absolute banger, best cafes, metro stations as little as 5 mins walk. Little puns and quirks here and there always put a smile on my face. Would definitely recommend and come back here!

If you like no hot water, dragging your bags up a broken up street, a tiny room, a very tiny bathroom, no air conditioning and rude people, this is your place. We arrived and had to be dropped off by the taxi down the street because it’s blocked off from construction. Had to drag luggage uphill to the entrance. Looked sketchy around it. That night we had no hot water. I called the desk and they said they would check it and get back to me. Then I called back a couple of minutes later to explain the other room we had with family in it didn’t have hot water either and the phone was answered with a frustrated sounding “YES?!?” It was obvious he didn’t want to hear any more problems. He never got back to me. In the morning we had hot water but it came and went some. The room was small and the bathroom was very tiny. There was no air conditioning or airflow at all. It was stuffy. I would understand a little if this was a cheap costing place. But it wasn’t. We checked out after the first night of a 3 night booking. Of course they wouldn’t give any money back despite all of this. The least they could do is apologize or warn ahead of time about the street. Also no security here. No keycard required at the door or on elevator. No questions asked as you pass by the desk person.

I was really excited about the theme of the hotel and the rooms looked super cute and included a charming old record player along with some records (which skipped a lot but whatever). ||There is massive construction on the road directly in front of the hotel. As others have said, they should warn people about this. I was only there Saturday night so thankfully didn’t experience any actual roadworks. ||My challenge with the rooms was climate control - the only option was “heat” but the room was too hot even with it turned off. We had a small window which helped cool down the room to a reasonable temperature, but it was quite noisy given the central location, and at one point we were worried about pigeons getting in so we had to close it. The walls are very thin, so you will hear everything happening next door and above you.

The staff were excellent and the property well kept. |I was disappointed that there was no Kleenex in the room and no peep hole in the door. As a plus size woman, I found it difficult to get in/out the shower because the shower door only swings in, not out, and is right at the shower head and knobs. Any person over 185 lbs will have a challenge. |There was only 1 very uncomfortable chair in the room. |The bed was very comfortable but oddly low. |As noted in the other reviews - the construction outside should be disclosed ahead of booking. I was told the street is being converted to a pedestrian only street. |The hotel is in a great location for access to the metro, the airport train, the Hop On Hop Off bus, and lots of shops and restaurants.

My sister had the avocado toast with egg. The egg was poached which was new to my sister, but she loved it! I had the pancakes. Lots of fruit on them and they were delicious! The service was good and the ambience was laid back. We were the only guests at the time we were there. The code is strong but good.

Lovely little place, tucked away from the busyness of the main streets. Beautiful wood-walled outdoor area, although small. Emma was our server and is positively delightful! Our breakfast was fresh and creative; I had the croque madame and my husband the Benedict; both we delicious! Highly recommend.

Nothing fantastic and not the cleanest looking environment. I had the big plate and it was fine.

Great coffee shop! Found this little place while looking for a good coffee in the area. Conveniently located Cozy atmosphere Very friendly staff

Excellent vibe and great for breakfast! Avocado toast was amazing and husband got Big Breakfast. All was good minus the hash browns. Definitely a great place for a good start to your day!
