I loved everything about this property! Hotels are my love language and I fell in love with Hotel Alfred Sommier. I spent one week here with my mom and aunt on what was a bucket list vacation for us! The hotel is dripping in authentically Parisian style, from the gorgeous hardwood floors and wooden windows to the elegant decor and inviting lobby/salon. Particularly impressive was the warmth of the Hotel's CEO who is a direct descendant of Alfred Sommier himself. With effortless charm and charisma, he enlightened us with the history of the hotel which is quite fascinating as the hotel is the Sommier's former family home originally built in 1890. The mansion now houses all of the modern conveniences that guests of luxury properties would expect. The location in the 8th arrondissement was was perfect and very walkable to all of the major attractions in this beautiful city! I loved it and with any luck will return time and time again! Thank you Hotel Alfred Sommier, it was a memorable experience!

The service wasn’t that friendly, the junior suite we got wasn’t as pretty as pictured and the WiFi is terribly slow. I couldn’t even load YouTube short videos or instagram reels. It was basically enough to check email. I would not recommend the breakfast service; it was very understaffed, pretty limited spread and just not worth the money. For the pros, it was an amazing location, the suite was clean and nice with a narrow terrace. The bed was comfortable. The overall hotel aesthetic was nice but it did not feel homey because the service was so cold (adequate but definitely don’t expect smiles or warmth). To me, this was a 4 star experience but I expected 5 stars so a little disappointed but our stay was fine. I probably would not return though.

The property was lovely, clean and impressive. I chose this based on the recommendations of how attentive the team are to your needs. I was celebrating my birthday during my stay and had requested some ideas on what to do as this was not my first time in Paris. Sadly - I never felt looked after, nothing special was done to recognize or acknowledge this. One hotel staff did finally at least recommend a place for dinner. I have plans to return next year with a larger group for a another important celebration and had the intention of returning but will not.

The property and rooms are not luxury by usa standards. Rooms are small, no sofa and minimal closet space. We stayed 5 days in early April and AC was not operating in the hotel. Garden area was spartan with no flowering plants. Dining room is small and has minimal natural light. Breakfast is 35 euro per person.

Overpriced, not comfortable or restful.

I booked online and I booked a room that said sleeps three, but when we got there they made us pay $100 a night for a rollaway for my son. It was hot, and they said they don’t turn on the AC in March. After flying in, We wanted cool and quiet but construction was going on in the room next door, and it was very noisy. Overpriced, not comfortable!

The Alfred Sommier Hotel is absolutely EXQUISITE. The owner makes it a point to get to know you personally and make you feel at home. The excellent and attentive staff (Clemence/Manager; Maeva/Concierge; Henri and Ghalia/Front Desk) were so lovely, joyful and kind. I ate dinner in the beautiful restaurant with DELICIOUS food and equally lovely and attentive service! My room was dreamy and oh so French!! The location is so central and walkable to so many iconic places. The Alfred Sommier will now be my "Paris home away from home" - THANK YOU WITH A GRATEFUL HEART-Susan Greenspan/USA

We’ve been to Paris numerous times. This hotel by far is the most beautiful and amazing place we’ve ever stayed at. It’s such a special place not just because of the elegant architecture but also the service you get from the staff and the owner is exceptional! You will be treated as special guests at a private mansion. Very unique experience! Breakfast was also excellent. I highly recommend this hotel!! We are already planning to go back!
