The 20-room mid-range Hotel
Louvre Sainte Anne is centrally located near the Louvre, the Tuileries Garden, and the Garnier Opera House, on a street lined with Asian restaurants. The rooms are small but have large windows, and are clean and comfortable. Their traditional, slightly dowdy decor favors striped wallpaper,
damask curtains, and a caramel-and-cream color palette. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the property. Breakfast is available for an added charge, and is served in a cave-like dining room. Daily newspapers are provided in the small lobby, along with a computer for guests' use and a bookshelf
full of guidebooks. There are several similar hotels in the area, and
travelers might want to check those out too.
Scene
Small, traditional hotel close to the Louvre
The small lobby of the Hotel
Louvre Sainte Anne looks out onto a street lined with Asian restaurants. Sleek and modern, the lobby seems out of place with the rest of the hotel. Burgundy armchairs are clustered around small round tables in front of a large window lined with potted plants and
flowers, while futuristic-looking disc shaped lights hang overhead. Newspapers and magazines are on hand, along with brochures, guidebooks, and a computer for guests' use. The basement breakfast room is like a cave, with a barrel-vaulted ceiling and stone walls. White formica tabletops mix with wooden chairs, and sepia-toned photographs adorn the
walls. Aside from the small lobby, there are no other common gathering spaces. The hotel is perhaps best suited to tourists who just want a comfortable place to sleep, as the rooms are small and amenities are limited. The hotel is near such major sights as the Louvre and the Palais Royal, and is within a three-minute walk of the Pyramides metro station, making it a good base from which to explore the city.
Location
In the first arrondissement, near the Louvre, the Tuileries Garden, the Garnier Opera House, and the Palais Royal
The Hotel Louvre Sainte Anne is centrally located in the first arrondissement. It is within walking distance to many sights
and museums, and there are plenty of restaurants in the immediate area. It's within a 10-minute walk of the Louvre and Tuileries Garden in one direction, and the Garnier Opera House in the other. The lovely Palais Royal garden, with its graceful arcades, is about a five-minute walk from the property. There is
plenty of shopping nearby on the famously pricey Rue Saint-Honore, which is full of
designer shops and boutiques. The nearest metro station is Pyramides, about a three-minute walk from the hotel.
Rooms
Small, clean, pleasant rooms; some have balconies
There are several room choices at the Hotel Louvre Sainte Anne, ranging from Singles to a Family Room that sleeps three and a
Reduced Mobility Room. Rooms, though pleasant, bright, and clean, are small and can feel cramped. Caramel and creamy colors are complemented by touches of
mint green. The traditional decor usually includes striped wallpaper and damask curtains to match. Some of the furniture shows signs of age, though it's well maintained. Photographs of Parisian
scenes hang above white beds accented by caramel-colored bedspreads and pillows. All rooms
come with tiny desks, flat-screen TVs, minibars, and free Wi-Fi.
Bathrooms are tiny, though bright and clean, with walk-in showers or shower/tub
combos, and heated towel racks. Hairdryers and limited toiletries are provided. The hotel is situated on a
street lined with restaurants that stay open late, and some guests on lower
floors complain of noise. Rooms on higher floors are quieter, and some of these
have lovely balconies with views of the Sacre Coeur Basilica.
