Overall, the hotel was really good it was super clean, had a bar, and even offered free coffee, which was a nice touch. However, the noise levels were a downside. We could hear people from our bedroom , especially upstairs, and even the TV from the next room.

The location is amazing. The art is cool. But I have lots of concerns. I didn't read any reviews before booking because the price was so reasonable; I probably wouldn't have booked this hotel had I read the reviews. Do your due diligence. The room smelled musty, and the windows did not open. There was no AC. There is no staff. Some rooms have communal bathrooms.

Property definitely shows its age quite a bit, but the hotel is rather nice and clean despite that (plus the old-school elevator is a rather unique touch!) Not to contribute to the echo-chamber, but the biggest takeaway I could provide to prospective guests and the staff alike; nowhere (at least on Expedia) is it made clear that bathrooms (including showers) are strictly communal, not in-room. Though not entirely displeased with my experience, knowing this would admittedly have ruled this property out of contention when booking and it was quite disappointing to learn about only when entering the room, seeing as there is no reception desk.

Hotel des Arts is only 2 Star but it is quite stylish, clean and reasonably priced. The location is very good and central, importantly close to the Cafe de la Press where even a spoiled European can find the Cappuccino and specifically the Croissants very good.
