Details
The 4th district of Paris is celebrated not only for its medieval roots and legendary fall of the Bastille, but also for retaining its French identity throughout the centuries. Come and stay at the Hotel Castex, an establishment full of charm and tradition located in the heart of the City.
Thanks to its affordable prices and luxurious environment, the three star Hotel Castex is recognized as a true landmark in the Parisian landscape and will surely delight you from the moment you step foot in the lobby. With its Louis XIII furniture and abundant period features throughout, this hotel feels more like a former state house. The lounge is a fabulous place with large windows, dark oak beams, antique mirrors, a magnificent chandelier and heavy tapestries. This spacious room is much loved by regular guests and genuinely reflects the history of the neighborhood without feeling ostentatious. Various sitting areas have been cleverly thought of, where one can enjoy reading a book or interacting with other guests. A computer is also at your disposal if you wish to keep in touch with family and friends.
The personnel available round the clock is fluent in English, Spanish and Portuguese and will be happy to help you with directions and make reservations at restaurants, shows and excursions that take your fancy. A luggage room is provided free of charge so you can enjoy your last hours in the city without being burdened by heavy bags. A copious continental breakfast buffet is served in the magnificent vaulted stoned cellar. A charming little patio will also be the ideal setting for a quiet moment after a busy day in Paris.
The spacious rooms with tall double-glazed windows and exposed beams are decorated in the same spirit and offer luxuries expected of a 21st century establishment such as satellite television, Wi-Fi, air-conditioning and safety deposit box, while retaining the character of the past. Families will feel at ease in a triple room with mezzanine and family room composed of two doubles connected by a large bathroom. If notified in advance, the hotel can connect two double/twin rooms through a small private corridor. A laundry service is also available.
The neighborhood of the Hotel Castex could easily satisfy all your dreams of experiencing the city as a true local, thanks to its quaint little bistros, shops and historical places to see. But, if you wish to discover the touristic landmarks such as the Two Islands and bohemian St Germain des Prés quarter, just take a short walk south. Follow the Rue de Rivoli by foot or take one of the metros and buses available all around, to get to the Louvre Museum in minutes with the Champs-Elysées beyond.
The elegant and comfortable Hotel Castex awaits you in a beautiful and central historical neighborhood. Add to that a convivial atmosphere and affordable prices and you will not be able to resist coming back year after year.
