Reviews of Republik Hotel
Marissa Axell
Stayed two nights in October. The service was fantastic, they even humored my bad french :) the location can't be beat, right near many of the sights, and easy walk or bike ride everywhere. It was very quiet, even with the windows open and lots of fresh air for us to enjoy. The breakfast was delish. We would definitely stay here again!

Really great stay at Le Republik! I don’t think you can beat this location. It was central and allowed us to visit almost everything on foot. The staff were all so nice and helpful. The hotel is beautifully decorated and I enjoyed the lounging area. They provide a water machine with still and sparking water. The room was on the smaller size but this is to be expected in this area and in France - I...

Very convenient location with helpful and friendly staffs. The single room however is so cramped you'd think it's a Hobbit hole! The door can't even fully open and one has to turn sideways to get in the shower. The toilet is so small you'd better be less than 70kg in order to fit in the slot! For the price €140 per night, there's many better options in the area.

Location is central and provides easy access to everything . I accidentally booked an extra day with all the stress of itineraries and vacation travel. The staff and manager helped m...

The hotel interior is very tastefully designed, my room had a good size, the bed was very comfortable. Specific mention needs to be given on the friendly staff, morning and night shift, really authentically friendly. The location is top, also. I can very much recommend !
