Wonderful Experience!
by TripAdvisor Member McCormick59
Merci Beaucoup Hotel Motte Picquet! The hotel is absolutely adorable. My family and I had a very enjoyable experience at this hotel. The rooms were extremely clean and comfortable. This service was perfect. Fulvia and Mourad were so nice and very helpful. Even before we arrived they answered so many questions for us over email and reserved our shuttle van. They made our visit even more enjoyable. Hotel Motte Picquet is in a perfect location. You have a real Parisian street, Rue Cler, a few steps away. The hotel is near a metro station which will get you anywhere in Paris. The Eiffel Tower is a few blocks away and who could resist seeing that everyday. You cannot go wrong by staying at Hotel Motte Picquet. We will definately return to this hotel on our next visit to the beautiful city of Paris-which I hope is very soon.
Charming and Convenient
by TripAdvisor Member RWTraveler
My family loved the charming Hotel Motte Picquet. Rooms are small, but clean and tastefully decorated. There isn't a huge amount of storage space, but we didn't mind. Bathrooms are larger than we expected and very modern. Location is super convenient. Close to Metro, great restaurants, museums. Staff is wonderful, helpful and polite. We really liked the daily breakfast and found it a good value. While the breakfast nook is cozy, we never had trouble finding a table. We would certainly stay at the Motte Picquet again!
Bijou and fun
by TripAdvisor Member angebg
We enjoyed our stay at this hotel very much. Ok, the room was tiny, but everything was very clean, the bed was comfortable, and the room was attractively decorated. We thought the hotel had been decorated with flair, and the space was used very well, creating a pleasant and characterful ambience, although the breakfast room was cramped. The breakfast was very good, however, with wonderful pastries, and everyone was very helpful. The situation of the hotel is great: in the middle of Paris, with the Eiffel Tower, the Seine and Les Invalides not far away, and a Metro about 50 metres away, and there are good restaurants and cafes in the Rue Cler, just around the corner. We felt we had had value for money, especially given the fact that it is in the centre of perhaps the world's most romantic city!
It's location off of rue cler was perfect
by TripAdvisor Member MichiganElla
Since I had made the reservations on line I wasn't sure how smoothly things would go at check in,but everything was in order. The rooms are small but whose going to stay in their room for long when you have the beautiful city of paris waiting for you right outside your doorstep.The breakfast was nice and convenient,but a bit pricey. I would definitly consider staying here again when back in paris.
Great Location with Lots of Charm
by TripAdvisor Member Daybelita
We loved our stay at the Motte Picquet. The location was perfect for us (especially since we lugged our luggage from the airport). Rue Cler is just around the corner with cafes and little shops of all kinds. the Metro has a stop that's very close...maybe a half a block or a block...not far at all. AND...you can walk to the Eiffel Tower which is a nice after dinner experience. The rooms were small compared with what we're used to in America, but had a good shower and space in the bathroom. The service was very nice...we were almost always greeted with a smile when we came in from our day out and about. The room was very clean and had wireless internet which was very helpful when planning our days. Our room had air conditioning, but I don't think they all do and sometimes in July it can get hotter than we're used to in the States (without ac, that is). Make sure to ask for a room with a/c or check to see if yours comes with it. We opted out of breakfast, mostly because there are great places to get morning pastries along Rue Cler or we weren't up in time! I was worried with most places in Paris accepting smokers that it would smell smokey, but I think there was only one night we were there that we could faintly smell smoke from another room/outside. We would definitely stay there again for the comfort and convenience!
Unbeatable location, friendly staff

On 2 separate occasions we booked the 2-story duplex room in this hotel for the my wife, myself and our 2 daughters. The upstairs/downstairs setup was perfect for us. The bathroom is very large for Paris or even American standards. Have since recommended this room to other families with kids and they have shared our enthusiasm. Location off Rue Cler, a quick walk from Invalides & Eiffel Tower is unbeatable. We did not try the hotel breakfast, opting instead for the cafe just downstairs at the entrance of Rue Cler (who will gladly give you coffee in to-go cups if you want to walk it back up). Highly recommended!
Small but nice
by TripAdvisor Member paris444444444
The front desk concierge was SOOOOOO nice and helpful, that definitely made me like it so much. Also, there was free Internet in the lobby. The room was really small which I'm not used to being from the states. The shower was also something I'm not used to being from the states, so showering there was difficult for me. So it is typical European style, but I am not used to it. There was a really nice breakfast there, but it was 10 euros. All in all, I would recommend it.
