A 31-room house in rue Monsieur-le-Prince

The Saint-Paul stands at 43 rue Monsieur-le-Prince, in the 6th arrondissement. Our data places it on the fringe of the 6th, where the street runs up from the Odéon towards the Luxembourg garden, about 150 metres away. Atout France, the state body that issues French hotel stars, classified the hotel four stars on 25 August 2026, for 31 rooms.

The hotel is independent, with no group behind it in our data.

Rooms and services

Every room is air-conditioned and heated on its own controls. The hotel lists a flowered patio among its facilities. Families have the most choice: a room for four, two communicating rooms for two to five people and two adjacent rooms for three to six. For couples it suggests rooms with four-poster beds, the Junior Suite on the top floor and a garden-level room with a balneotherapy bath.

Practical limits are plain. Animals have been refused since the renovations, there is no restaurant (a meal tray can be had in the room) and no gym. The hotel says it is not equipped for reduced mobility, though it has one accessible ground-floor room and a lift. A work space for up to six people has been built in a vaulted stone cellar. Nearby public car parks are named, none belongs to the hotel.
