The hype
Travelers universally praise the helpful staff and spotless rooms, but often wish the location was a bit more central.
Drawing House
$150-250/ νύχτα
Κρατήστε αυτό αν You want a stylish, art-filled sanctuary with a rare-for-Paris pool, and you prefer an authentic neighborhood vibe over being trampled by tourists near the Louvre.
Γιατί Το Αγαπούν
- The 11-meter heated indoor pool with its stunning hand-painted mural
- Soundproofing that actually works—street-facing rooms are surprisingly quiet
- Immaculate cleanliness that consistently beats 5-star standards
Γρήγορη Ματιά: It's a pristine, artistic hideaway in a slightly gritty slice of Montparnasse that feels like a secret club for creative professionals.
Αξιολόγηση από @Misz_Aisha: I honestly felt cooler just staying here. The art isn't just on the walls; it IS the walls. My room was vibrant and cozy, and having a drink at that bar felt like hanging out in a secret gallery. A total vibe for creatives.

Reality check
The breakfast is tasty but can feel 'modest' for the €19 price tag, and the coffee machines are notoriously slow, causing morning queues.
- You value silence and sleep quality above being in the center of the action
- You want a legitimate lap pool and gym with natural light
- You enjoy exploring local market streets like Rue Daguerre

Συχνές ερωτήσεις & Κρυμμένες συμβουλές
Όλα όσα πραγματικά θέλεις να ξέρεις πριν κάνεις κράτηση.
Is the pool actually swimmable?
Yes, it's 11 meters long and 4 meters wide—big enough for laps, not just a plunge pool.
Is the neighborhood safe?
Yes, the 14th is largely residential and safe. The immediate block is a bit 'concrete' and industrial, but safe to walk at night.
Does the hotel have air conditioning?
Yes, all rooms have individually controlled air conditioning (a lifesaver in Paris summers).
How far is the metro?
Gaîté station (Line 13) is a 4-minute walk; Montparnasse-Bienvenüe (major hub) is about 10-12 minutes walking.
Is breakfast included?
Usually not. It costs ~€19 per person. It's a decent buffet but many guests prefer local bakeries for better value.
Can I open the windows?
Yes, windows generally open, and some rooms have balconies or terraces.

5 πράγματα που πρέπει να ξέρετε πριν φύγετε
💡The 'What Matters' vegan toiletries are actually high-quality and smell amazing.
💡The pool water is heated to a very comfortable temperature, not the usual 'refreshing' (freezing) standard.
💡You might hear the rumble of the metro deep underground if you are on the lowest floors (very faint).
💡The art isn't just generic prints; 7 contemporary artists were commissioned to create original murals for the rooms and halls.
💡The 'mini-bar' is often just a cooler, not a true refrigerator, so don't plan on storing perishable groceries for days.
