Magical Hotel Experience!. Everything about the Saint James Paris is special. The staff is incredibly gracious and welcoming and goes above and beyond. The rooms are absolutely gorgeous and super quiet! It feels like a true getaway even though you're right in the middle of Paris. It is an exceptional hotel in every way. Can't wait to return.. .

Amazing time in Paris in the winter. Just returned from one week in Paris to celebrate a milestone birthday with my husband. Saint James was all we could have asked for. The staff are exceptionally attentive, friendly and helpful. The property is a two minute walk to the metro and a 5 minute walk to Place Hugo a lively spot. . .

Phenomenal Stay at the St. James Hotel. Our stay at the St. James Hotel was incredible! Our family stayed a week in November 2025 and celebrated our American Thanksgiving with 11 of our family in the clubroom. Margaux was very helpful with planning and executing a wonderful meal for us that day. David was welcoming to us also during our lunch that day. All the staff was incredible coordinating everything before our arrival with not only our reservations but honoring our special requests. The concierge staff was very prompt in answering all my emails sent during my months of planning including suggestions of activities which they booked. From the moment we arrived we felt we were treated with the utmost care. The attention from the housekeeping staff to the service in the restaurant/bar, breakfast every morning (Kiara and others), the front desk staff, and the attention of the concierges in the front lobby went beyond our expectations. We have already discussed that upon our return to Paris we will definitely stay at the St. James Hotel again!. .

Nice Chateau in a Quiet Location. The Saint James in Paris is the only chateau hotel located in the city. It’s not as centrally located as many other 5-star Paris hotels, but it’s likely the quietest and most tranquil of all. The chateau is firmly planted between the Arc de Triomphe and the Eiffel Tower so it’s by no means in the middle of nowhere. The cab ride to Place de la Concorde and all the great sites in the vicinity is roughly 15-20 minutes while nice parts of Rive Gauche are equally as close. Place des Vosges is roughly 35-40 minutes away so it’s not an ideal location if you plan to spend a lot of time in the eastern part of the city. The property itself is stunning. It’s truly a chateau in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the big city. The backyard area is inviting (although awkward to access as you must walk directly through the restaurant to get to the back doors). We bought bread and meats one night and had a nice French-style meal in the backyard area. Pilou, the languid 17-year old black cat who saunters around the property brings a relaxed element to the hotel. Our room was upgraded from a junior suite to a suite and was extremely nice. For Paris, the size of the room was outstanding. There was a foyer, steps down to a living room area and a large bedroom. Although the bathroom had one of those half glass panes that inevitably leaves the floor wet, the room was still a highlight of our stay. The flowers I pre-ordered were tastefully arranged in the foyer upon arrival along with a stunning and equally delicious plate of meticulously sliced apples and kiwis in some sort of berry topping with wine grapes scattered throughout. We were also given tasty salted caramel macarons, a bottle of white wine and a hand-written welcome note. The reason for leaving a 4 star review instead of 5 stars comes down to a couple issues. First, on the last day of our stay, we ordered breakfast to our room using a door tag that we put out the night before. We ordered the same breakfast in the same way the morning before and received it without issue. However, on our last morning, we were only delivered half of our order. They basically forgot to deliver my fiancés order. In addition, the order they did bring was missing a couple of the included dishes that we received the morning before. If that had been the only mistake, they’d probably still get a 5 star review, but we had multiple extra charges after checkout. One charge was for an extra $2,000+ that was charged to my card 8 hours after we checked out. After contacting the hotel about the extra charge, they apologized and agreed to refund the money. A couple hours later, another extra charge popped up on my card. This time, it was for just under $100 for water and champagne we took from the mini bar. Prior to taking anything from the mini bar, I called the front desk to confirm that our $100 AMEX credit could be used for mini bar items. After receiving confirmation that our credit could be used for the mini bar, we took a bottle of water and a split of champagne. Upon informing the Saint James of the extra charge, they again apologized and agreed to refund the second erroneous charge. All in all, our stay at the Saint James in Paris was positive and we would consider returning, especially for the reasonable price relative to the exorbitant prices many 5-star hotels in Paris charge… just remember to review your credit card statement after checking out.. .

And this makes you special! From the first hello at the bottom of the steps of your beautiful Chateau you make a guest feel welcome! That is just the beginning. Wonderful Concierge service from a team that knows Paris better than my little phone! Fantastic breakfast service and scrumptious rooms! Or the other way around! The views out of the magnificant windows! A Spa and indoor pool to swoon over! It's all so special! In an area of Paris that has it all...and feels like a neighborhood. Yet steps from the best shopping in the whole world. I love it here. and it is all because of you , Merci Saint James Paris. .

I cannot stay anywhere else in Paris but here!. From the moment our taxi drove up to the entrance, my partner and I were looked after with astounding attention and care. We were celebrating our honeymoon and the front desk went above and beyond our highest expectations to ensure our stay – including meals, spa, Guerlain shopping, and room (generous upgrade to junior suite!) – was unforgettable. It’s been two months since our stay and I swear I still think of my visit almost every day. My partner and I are planning to make annual returns to Paris and will stay nowhere else but the Saint James! Truly, recommend anyone who can afford this luxury to treat themselves to this hotel. It makes all other five-star, Michelin key hotels pale in comparison!. .
