Hôtel Istria by Magna Arbor Reviews

Great place.. thr room was clean and thr staff very friendly! THANK YOU!

This is not the first time I have stopped because I like the location, on a quiet street. And very friendly reception staff!! One minus (and this is a problem in many small hotels in Paris) is the maids, they really like to occupy the elevator with their equipment! When you are without a suitcase this is not a problem, the stairs are also suitable, but with suitcases... very inconvenient

Accustomed to this hotel where I go down regularly when I have exams to pass. Room reserved and paid for for one person from Friday 6 to Saturday 7 May 22. When I arrive, I am charged (and I pay) twice the tax even though only one person is occupying the room! In addition, while this was not practiced previously, the night watchman demanded to scan my identity card: I refused. From this moment, the reception is more than unpleasant. The most outrageous is that I had to stay again in this hotel 48 hours later; I had therefore reserved and paid for a room on their site (non-refundable, non-cancellable by me) from Sunday May 8 to Monday May 9, 22 OR I received an email indicating that the hotel CANCELLED my reservation! To flee!!!! Visited in May

Very welcoming and clean no disturbance.

Great hotel. Clean, great breakfast, and great location next to the subway. What I didn't like is you are required to turn in your room key when exiting the hotel. Came home one night at 2AM. Had to tap on the window to wake up night clerk who was sound asleep on lobby couch just to get in to lobby. At $500eu a night maybe I expected more than hostel conditions.

really a nice hotel and nice people................................................................................................................nice location nice shops nearby. nice restaurants nearby. great breakfast

Small boutique style hotel in a quiet street in Montparnasse, very close to Raspail métro station. Shops, restaurants, street market and tourist attractions all within a 5-10 minute stroll. The hotel is quite historic, with links to the artists, poets and composers of early 20th century Montparnasse. 24hour front desk, lift, refreshments available for a small sum in the lobby. Our room was on the fourth floor overlooking the street, view of Montparnasse Tower. The room was small, as expected, but was freshly decorated, theme of Josephine Baker, (who probably didn't stay here!). It was perfectly clean, well equipped (kettle, minibar fridge, safe) , though only hangers for clothes and a very small desk/table. Bathroom also small, with shower and toilet. Very little room to turn round, put things, and not possible to sit straight on the loo. Some of the fittings were a little loose (loo and electric socket covers, and one of the bedside sockets didn't work). We mentioned this to front desk. Plenty of other sockets in working order, though. Bed was very comfortable, slept well. Altogether, a charming, convenient place to stay for your culture -themed city break.

Loved the location of this Hotel, the excellent receptionists who i got to interact with, the Raspail Metro less then a minute away, and is very quiet and peaceful. Monpatnasse along with the bars, restaurants and night life is just a stone throw away, as its Port Royale, Luxembourg Gardens and the Pantheon, and therefore the legendary Rue Moutteford. I had the superior double room (see pictures) with a bath. There was no shower curtain so the floor got wet during shower. Also i had to get the new towels myself from down stairs, as there was no cleaning every day. The fridge was small and weak, but better than nothing. It is okay for a few can of drink, but nt ideal for 1Litre+ water/coke bottles. The room did have aircon, it was the same Mitsubishi unit i have at work, right down to the same controls. on the wall. The first 3 nights the aircon did not work properly despite the 19 Degree C chosen on the panel. The last 2 night it worked perfectly just like the one in my office. I wonder if the temperature was controlled externally from a central panel that i did not have access too. 3 starts due to the issues with the aircon, small fridge and the fact no cleaning was done at all while i was there.

All perfect! The very convenient location, the kindness of all the staff, the cleanliness, the adjustable heating, the possibility of leaving your luggage after check-out. If I were to return to Paris I would stay here again. I advise!

The room was clean and the bathroom well designed (no leaks like in some hotels). Presence of a mini bar and a popular kettle. Soundproofing between rooms is fair. Furthermore, the hotel and reception handled a payment problem (account charged twice) diligently. Communication with reception was good even though I had already returned home.

This was my fifth time in Oarigi and if there is one thing that really matters it is: comfort! Hotel of modest pretensions but clean, well managed and above all (precisely) COMFORTABLE. Metro stop outside the hotel door! In Paris it is essential.

Hotel in Montparnasse, with metro 50m away. Good value for money. Have a nice breakfast. Good infrastructure. Functional rooms and great heating in the bathrooms. Friendly and attentive staff

We make a reservation directly on their site, we make a mistake on the credit card, we contact the hotel to resolve the problem, it tells us to contact us again the next morning, we send an email and 10 minutes later we canceled our reservation... and obviously the hotel was full right after! First time I've seen a hotel that doesn't even refuse to contact its customers to resolve a card problem, you do it yourself, they don't even resolve the problem!

Welcome by a man slumped in his chair and who will stay that way. The room, although reserved for a long time, is finally a PMR on the first floor which overlooks the reception and overlooks the sidewalk. No shutters and curtains that do not hide the entire window. The shower curtain (yes, it still exists) is stuck at the top, a shame for people with reduced mobility… The TV changes color and drinks are chargeable. Not even a bottle of water. I ask to change rooms, the hotel is supposedly full. But he remains slouched and doesn't even pretend to look for a solution. However, the room ordered is not a PMR. The sound insulation is catastrophic. A shame !! Only the bed is ok. And for the breakfast at 13 euros, no coffee (you will have to wait for the thermos to be refilled at the end of the breakfast) no fork or container for jam no fruit salad a reduced choice especially for this price! By taking the time to read some reviews I see that the contempt and incompetence of the reception staff seems to be completely assumed by management. And the manager strangely only responds to certain opinions while never questioning himself…. In short, at 130 euros per night, run away!
