Hotel Henri IV Rive Gauche

Everything good with the hotel, except no water kettle in the room. But everything else was good. Good service, friendly staff. Clean, charming hotel with a quiet location in the busy latin quarter with bars, a few shops and restaurants just as soon you get out. We didnt have breakfast, we had a look at it and thought the price was quite high for the choices. But ok enough breakfast if included in the same room rate.

We had a wonderful 4 night stay in this small quaint hotel. Room was a good size, very clean and we had a view of the Eiffel Tower! Bed and pillows were great. Has a lift which was very helpful being on the 6th level. We didn’t try the hotel breakfast because there were so many great options outside. This hotel is the perfect location to sightsee from - very central. Highly recommend

I am Very happy with the staff and their service. Great communication. Not even 50 meters to the Notre Dame Cathedrale. Pamela is a good receptionist. Very kind lady. Thank you very much for your service. Hope to see you guys again. Good luck

The room was small but it has a perfect view of Rive Gauche Paris, including the Eiffel tower in the distance. It was delightful once we figured out the heating.

This is a small, old hotel in the crowded Latin quarter of Paris. I’m fine with old, however, the cleanliness could be improved upon. The carpet really needed a vacuum in my room. Keep in mind that since it’s an old building, the rooms are TINY. Smaller than it looks in the photo. I wouldn’t recommend for families. The staff however were really kind and welcoming, just be prepared to wait. It’s Paris so just know what you’re getting into

Typical hotel for central Paris with small rooms. 24 hr front desk. Breakfast for a fee. Very hospitable staff. Very clean with good private washrooms. Fantastic location near the Seine.

Cozy, warm and snug. Centrally located in the Latin Quarter but usually quiet at night. 6th floor was very nice. Breakfast can be ordered downstairs. Right across the street from the Hop on/ Hop off bus stop and walkable to Notre Dame and St. Chapelle..and a very nice park nearby. A wide variety of street shops, sidewalks are narrow and the bike lanes, cobblestone streets get busy.

Wow what a location! Right in the heart of the Latin quarter, and just around the corner from Notre Dame - and a million other amazing places too. Pick any direction to walk and be amazed. Stunning everywhere. The hotel itself is lovely, quiet and comfortable. Rooms are basic but very comfortable, and our bathroom was especially spacious. Wonderful and friendly staff always welcoming and helpful. We didn't try the breakfast, instead opting to explore the many cafes in the area. Would stay again.

We just returned from a 6 night stay at Hotel Henri IV Rive Gauche. Even before we arrived, we established great communication with the hotel. They responded quickly to every email that I sent. In fact, they called me twice to review my additional requests before I arrived. They also arranged for transportation to and from the airport with a company they contract with. Our arrival and departure were both virtually stress free. Our room was cleaned daily, and the bed and layout of the room was comfortable. There is a mini-refrigerator stocked with orange juice, cokes, and water. Breakfast is served daily for an additional fee. We requested a kettle for our room to prepare our own coffee in the morning, and they were very accommodating. There is also a safe in the room to store passports and valuables. Our room was located on the 2nd floor facing a very busy street. But once the windows were closed, the room was pretty much sound proof. Best of all, the hotel is located two blocks from the Seine and a couple of blocks from the Saint Germain de Pres area where there are tons of restaurants and great shopping! We were very pleased with our accommodations, location, and service! One thing I would suggest to travelers is to request a room with a lower rise tub. Ours was high in comparison to what we are used to. If you are elderly and have difficulty stepping into and getting out of a higher rise tub, you should ask for a room with a lower rise tub and also a safety bar to hold onto while exiting the tub. Other than that, everything was perfect. We would definitely stay here again when visiting Paris.

I loved loved loved this hotel. I ended up booking this hotel last minute when I read up on all the reviews from the previous hotel I had booked. In the Latin quarter and near Notre dame it's a lively and safe area. The staff was very friendly and I absolutely loved the rooms. They were clean, sheek and all you need. It's a small hotel but still very nice within a great location. When I visit Paris again I plan on staying here again as it was perfect. Charming, small and overall beautiful. You can walk to most sites but also close to the subway or you can haul a cab. Lots of cute French bars, restaurants and markets near to give you exactly what you need. Happy yelping mis amigos

A big five stars for this hotel. The location is absolutely perfect! Next to Norte Dam Cathedral and all the hot spots in downtown Paris. Most sites are in walking distance or a quick cab away. Even better, the staff is truly amazing. We took a cab and the cab driver said he only "took cash" once we arrived to the hotel. We hadn't had a chance to visit the atm and we were stuck. My husband went into our hotel and asked the kind lady at the front desk what he should do. She lent us 10 euro to pay for the cab. I was in complete awe. On Saturday evening we wanted to have a traditional French restaurant and needed some help as all places we knew of were booked. The kind women at the front desk went down a list of restaurants and even called them for us! This is a small boutique hotel that provides top notch service. We will definitely be coming back!

A lovely hotel in the Latin District of Paris. I would definitely stay here again in the future. A short walking distance to Notre Dame, great restaurants in the area, safe, helpful staff, and a yummy breakfast every morning made this stay memorable.

First night here and I'm loving it already. The staff are so nice and helpful! The Hotel itself is small and very boutiquey. Very charming, warm, and welcoming. The rooms, i guess some would say, are small, but i like them. Everything is very functional and space saving. The bathrooms feel pretty large. So it's easy for my fiance and I to both be in here at the same time....did i mention location yet....this place has it all.

My family of 4 (2 young kids) - plus my MIL - stayed here in July 2011. I did extensive research for hotels in the Latin Quarter / Notre Dame area because we only had 2 nights in Paris and wanted to be central and conveniently close to everything for our very brief stay. The reviews for Henri IV I found online were mixed but generally satisfactory. A major complaint from other reviewers was the noise from the street especially if one got a room facing the front of the building. Mind you the view from my MIL's room that was facing the street was spectacular! St. Severin church was right across the street from the hotel and beyond in the distant you can see the Eiffel Tower. We got the larger suite room at the back of the building (which was my preference given the fact that we have 2 young jetlag kids and wanted optimum sleeping conditions). Luckily since my MIL is a very sound sleeper and jetlag she did not experience any issues with noisy weekend revelers down in the streets below. And we were there from a Sat. through a Mon. Apparently the windows are double glazed and sound proof. Us being in the back of the building was perfect. We had 3 single beds which we were able to make do as my youngest was only 2 so can easily share a single with one of us adults. (See photos) The hotel overall is very typical of European cities but very well maintained. Things are cramp and small. It's an older building that they've converted into a modern hotel. If you go with an open mind and no particular expectations then you will find Hotel Henri IV perfectly decent. The only complaint I will make is probably about the breakfast that came with the room. Not all that spectacular. I would recommend Hotel Henri IV if you're ever in Paris.

Absolutely loved the place. The woman at the front desk was kind enough to help us deal with a cabbie situation (and one of the only Parisians who would actually speak French with a lowly American such as myself). In fact, all the staff was stellar and so sweet. The room was cozy, just enough for two people and small luggage. Clean, view of the Eiffel Tower from our bed, honestly could not be beat for price and location in such an expensive city. Centrally located, two steps from Notre Dame, Sainte-Chapelle, everything within the Île-de-la-Cité. Two thumbs way up.
