We just spent 5 nights at Familia. Clean, nice decor and excellent, helpful staff. A true gem in thevheartvof the Latin Quarter. Tons of cafes and attractions in walking distance. Highly recommended. We will return.

I really like this hotel. Everything went smoothly. Staff was excellent and very accommodating. Location was convenient and within walking distance of important tourist sites. I would return in a minute!

I'm not sure I understand the ratings system in Europe. I was in a 3 star hotel that was not as nice as this one. Hotel Familia is like a lot of moderately priced European hotels: Small rooms, tiny elevator, No AC that I could see. However, this hotel was charming in many ways. New bathroom, the public rooms were... More

After reading many reviews I thought we had found a gem, but I was mistaken. We arrived at 8 pm on Monday night to be met by a sullen miserable fellow who clearly did not like his job. We were given the key to room 24. We found that the walls were thin as we could hear other quests especially... More

I stayed at the Familia Hotel for 8 days in early May, 2013. I found the Familia to be a clean, safe, affordable option centrally located in the Latin Quarter district of Paris, within a 10 minute walk of Notre Dame cathedral. The staff was gracious and engaging, and responsive to all requests that were asked of them. They also... More

Small rooms - but of course they're fine for a stay in Paris - who wants to spend time in a room? Staff all very friendly - English widely spoken here. Rooms at the front are best as you can see what's happening - but of course the price is that you can hear Paris (not a problem for me).... More

My wife and I have stayed there at least six times, and will stay there again. That should tell you everything. It has everything you need, and nothing you do not need. Yes, the rooms are small, but it is Paris and you are never in your room except to sleep. Clean, friendly, and the staff speak English, especially Eric,... More

I would like to say that the hotel is clean, location is ok and the staff is friendly and very helpful. I had a room at the back of the hotel which opened up to a open courtyard. Even though the hotel is non smoking, if people smoked out in the courtyard you would get the smell in your room.... More

Two friends and I stayed at the Familia Hotel last week. Our rooms was comfortable and clean. The hotel is in a great location near Notre Dame. The staff are friendly and helpful as well. The rooms became quite warm on the top floor, even with the windows open, and the temps were in the 30s at night. So this... More
