Explorers, Not Tourists

“It's down the street from the the Cadet train station, which made it central to visit anywhere in the city, even the south bank side.”

Denise from United StatesJune 2024

Away at Home

What Guests Are Saying?

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Maison Mere is often praised for creating a memorable Paris experience, especially for those celebrating special occasions; some guests were welcomed with hot towels and drinks upon arrival, alongside personalized gifts in their rooms. Many find the location ideal, with convenient access to the train station, various restaurants, cafés, and easy Uber access, as well as being within walking distance to Montmartre. While most rooms are appreciated for their attention to detail and international outlets, a few guests have noted that the 'Parisien' rooms can feel quite small for a superior room. Guests appreciate having a Nespresso machine with coffee pods in their rooms.
