I wouldnt say it was in a great area or a bad area. I booked this hotel as it was between the marathon start line and the Eurostar train station. So for me it was convenient. I got around on bike a lot so anywhere would have been fine. This is a very simple, no frills hotel so don't expect too much and you won't be disappointed. Rooms are fine, bed is ok, not the most comfortable but better than the floor.

Dear Sir,Thank you for choosing us for your stay during the Paris Marathon, one of our city's most emblematic events! Our hotel is located in the heart of the 2nd arrondissement, just 7 minutes by bike from the Avenue des Champs Élysées, making it the ideal location for this sporting event.Stone walls, wooden beams... While tastes in decoration and comfort may vary, we have chosen to create a sober, welcoming atmosphere for our rooms, so that our guests feel right at home. We would also like to remind you that our team is always ready to respond to your needs to ensure you have a pleasant visit. We hope you had an exceptional experience taking part in this race, and that we will have the pleasure of welcoming you back next year to pound the pavements on the capital's most prestigious streets and squares!

The hotel is very well located, like 3 blocks from a Metro station, surrounded by other hotels, restaurants, attractions, etc. It does have elevators, small ones, but good enough. The room had a good size, with a refrigerator, electric kettle, etc but what I had a big complaint about was the shower, because it had a moveable shower head that wouldn't stay in its place while showering, it would slide down, so it was very uncomfortable to take showers. The only good thing is that it had also a tub, so after a long day walking, you could fill the tub and rest. We didn't have breakfast in the hotel because it seemed they didn't offer much for what they charged. We bought some food in a supermarket or in restaurants and the person in the front desk did let us use the microwave. About the staff: There was only one guy, like Indian, that wasn't very good at his job, didn't speak English very well nor Spanish, he wasn't attentive, etc but the ther 2 we saw were nice enough.

Dear Angeline, We are happy to hear of your satisfaction following your stay with us, thank you for your feedback. It's true that we're ideally located in the 2nd arrondissement of Paris, close to the metro stations and many places to visit to discover the capital. You can walk to the Opéra Garnier or the Louvre Museum in 15 minutes. We are delighted that you have enjoyed the size of your room and the facilities we have included. It is important that you feel at home with us and these facilities contribute to that. With regard to the lack of stability of your shower head, I am sorry that this may have inconvenienced you. We will take the necessary steps in the room concerned to ensure that this does not happen again. I hope that you were able to relax as you should in your large bathtub. We hope to see you again soon in our hotel, this time to enjoy our large breakfast buffet, which is a great success with our guests.

Our stay was average at this property. It was our first time in Paris and the Hôtel is located in a great area to explore the city. The check in process was simple and easy. The elevator is very small, the bathroom was pretty dated and the toilet seat lid was broken. No fan in the bathroom. The walls are very thin and you can hear everything going on in the hallway.

Dear Madam Thank you for choosing us for your first stay in Paris! We're sorry that your first impression was tinged with these few issues. As you say, we are perfectly located in the vibrant 2nd arrondissement of Paris, which offers many possibilities for going out: bars, restaurants, tourist attractions, the choice is wide! We want you to be able to settle into your room quickly on arrival and enjoy a well-deserved rest. Thank you for highlighting the efficiency of our team in this regard. We have taken note of all your comments and will do our utmost to improve any areas where improvements can be made. For your information, we are based in a historic and typically Parisian building, which is why certain renovations cannot be envisaged. We would be delighted to welcome you on your next visit to the City of Light, so that we can show you the full potential of the Hôtel Lautrec Opéra.

Narrow stairwells and lots of fire doors, but expected given the age of most buildings in Paris … overall great little hotel. Only issue being the heat was centrally controlled displaying 26 degrees and had to ask for this to be lowered to sleep at night, which it was … very central and ideal if arriving late - as decent takeaways restaurants very nearby … not good for those less mobile …

Great place!
The hotel is in a great location on a quiet street. The rooms have been remodeled and were clean and comfortable. It was nice to have a kettle with tea and instant coffee in the room. There were extra pillows and blankets in the room, too. I never ate breakfast at the hotel, so unsure how that was. The metro station is just a block away from the hotel, so very convenient. I stayed for 4 nights and had a great time and would definitely come back. The one thing that was a hassle was that the elevator was broken the entire 4 days I was there, so I had to go up and down 4 flights of stairs every day. I didn’t mind the exercise, but that might be a problem for some people. Overall, it’s a nice place to stay!

Dear guest, It is encouraging to know that the cleanliness and our hotel in general lived up to your expectations.However, we are aware that the unavailability of our lift can be a setback, especially when you expect all the comforts promised by our hotel. Under normal circumstances, we would have been delighted to offer you a more convenient alternative. Unfortunately, our full occupancy during this period has not allowed us to offer you this flexibility.We would like to assure you that steps are being taken to ensure that the lift is operational as soon as possible. We look forward to welcoming you back and providing you with the peaceful, hassle-free stay you deserve, right in the heart of vibrant Paris.

Very Bad service, avoid this Hotel
Dear Manager I hope this message finds you well. I recently stayed at your hotel, room My Room ]46 from [Check-In date 13th to [Check-Out 15 of October ], and I felt compelled to share my experience with you. During our entire stay, the elevators were out of service. We were on the 4th floor, and the inconvenience of having to climb the stairs was not what we expected from a hotel of your caliber. We inquired at the front desk, and the response we received was that it would be fixed "tomorrow." Unfortunately, this promise was not fulfilled. Another issue we encountered was related to the breakfast. We had paid for breakfast as part of our reservation, but on the last day, for unexpected reasons, it was not provided. We spoke to the manager at the front desk, expressing our disappointment and suggesting that it would have been a good gesture to compensate for the elevator inconvenience. Regrettably, the response was a firm "no." I must say that the combination of the elevator issue and the unmet breakfast expectation left a very negative impression. I had hoped for better service, especially considering the reputation of your establishment. I believe it's essential for your management to be aware of these issues so that improvements can be made.

Dear Sir,Your words struck a chord with us, and it is regrettable that your stay was affected by the issue of the lift, an exceptional situation for our establishment. For your information, it will be back in operation on 3 November. In the meantime, we will do our best to allocate you a room on the lower floors, unless you request otherwise. In addition, a team member is on hand throughout the day to help you take your belongings upstairs. Breakfast is served every day without exception, from 6.30am to 10am on weekdays, and from 7.30am at weekends. We are surprised that you have not enjoyed it. We would like to assure you that your experience does not reflect the excellence and warm welcome that the Hôtel Lautrec Opéra is committed to offering. Nevertheless, we hope that your time spent in our neighbourhood, surrounded by the Opéra Garnier and the Grands Boulevards, will remain fond memories.

Ok hotel - perfect location!
The hotel definitely looked a bit “worn out” and could use some touching up. But overall it filled its function and was ok. I wouldn’t recommend anyone to have breakfast included since it’s very basic. Go out and eat at a café instead for a nicer breakfast at about the same price. The location was PERFECT though so would stay here just for that. Super close to à metro line which you should look for when going to Paris. Also a good walking distance to many nice sights and neighborhoods.

Review of Hotel Lautrec
Hotel Lautrec was charming, clean and had wonderful guest service. My room was lovely and quiet. It was clean with a comfortable bed. In addition, the bathroom though small, was equipped nicely and serviced my needs. There is a good working elevator so although I stayed on the 5h floor, it was fine. Nice breakfast and staff helped me get a cab the next morning . Highly recommend

Terrible service
The receptionist intentionally mislead customers to consume their breakfast. When we checked in on the first day, he told us there is daily breakfast downstairs which we can go. We thought it was complimentary and went every day in our stay. When we checked out, the same person asked if we had had breakfast everyday downstairs and still we didn't know they would charge us for that. He asked if we had breakfast today yet if not then we should go and have it then we can check out. Well, again we went and finally we gave us a bill with 15euro per person per day. And what they serve was eggs, cereal, croissant which always ran out. Not to mention some other cold food which I didn't even bother to touch. I wouldn't say it was all their fault, but I had to say their service was quite poor and he was trying to earn an extra 30 euros (me and my friend) on our last day before we check out. He obviously knew we didn't know but still. Our faces were shocked when we saw the final price and his attitude made us even more mad. He said "well it is all stated here" (referring to a small price tag on the table in french with small english words on the counter). Who would even bother to look at this on the day of check in. He had NEVER mentioned this to us. We know we do responsible to ask for the price too. But 15 euros per person per day, really? It costs even more than a restaurant. I have sent a complaint to the hotel with no response. I would not recommend this to anyone.

Good Price-point, location handy to Le Louvre.
The staff all speak reasonable English. My elevated room (converted room attic) was quirky, yet very comfortable. Odd that no coffee/tea facilities provided but that appears normal in Paris. No ability to prepare food in the room. The ceiling beams limited headspace for half the room. Bathroom was very nice and clean - but I found it odd that no shower-anti-spash curtain was fitted? Stairway to loft landing in room would not suit the fragile or semi-disabled or physically large as it was extremely steep and very, very narrow - actually had no utility but was quirky and quaint. There was no iron or ironing board provided - or laundry service (commercial laundromat was nearby). The elevator fitted only one person and a large suitcase at a time. The hallways are so narrow that moving past people would become very personal. The buffet breakfast was very nice - great range, quirky ambience/location down in converted/recovered underground cellars. Staff were very helpful at all times. I would use this hotel again now knowing I would have to eat out for all drinks/meals.

It was very nice indeed. Staff were friendly and the room was excellent. It's very centrally located so I was able to walk most places. They offered to store luggage which I know most hotels do but their customer service was spot on. I would recommend it without hesitation to anyone else. Throw in that its Toulouse Lautrec's old home and reputedly an ex brothel and you can't get more Parisien than that!

Excellent location but...
Last winter I stayed at hotel Icone which is right next to Lautrec. Icone was full so it was easy for me to say at this hotel then because it is in a very good neighborhood and close to all agencies I was visiting. The room size is ok for Paris standars, but it is very old. I'm very easy going but what was really not ok was the construction going on right outside of the hotel. I know it is not up to the hotel to decide but they should have warned us or at least changed rooms. I was away most of the day but when I had to go back to the hotel it was really horrible. Workers were outside of my window doing as much as noise as you can imagine. No privacy at all. Next time, I'll stay at hotel Icone as it is a newer building, so much nicer and of course will make sure there's no constructions going on in the area.

Stay here if you plan to be all day outside.
The hotel is categorized as a 3-star hotel but I would give it a 2 or 1.5. It is very small and in the elevator, only 2 people fit well. It is an old hotel without any renovations. The rooms are very small and the bathroom was awful: everytime I flushed the toilet, it spilled water out all around and in the tub, there was no holder, so to get into the tub was a dangerous adventure. Ask for the remote control at the front desk, otherwise, nobody will tell you that the TV has a remote control. I had the impression of being in a dirty place all the time. Sometimes, it smelled like urine. It is the place to go back at night, sleep and get up early and out, the next morning.
