The Oratio is in a wonderful location in Saint-Germain, within walking distance to restaurants, charming bakeries, the metro, the Latin Quarter, Notre-Dame Cathedral, and more.
We stayed 3 nights in a balcony room and really enjoyed having coffee outside in the mornings with the sunshine. After our tour, we also stayed 2 nights in a superior room. Both rooms were cozy and comfortable.
The front desk staff was wonderful — always friendly, welcoming, and helpful. There is also a complimentary 24/7 coffee and tea station with several selections available, which was a nice touch.
One thing to note during our May stay was that the air conditioning was not available. We later learned you can request a fan for better air circulation if you prefer not to keep the window or balcony door open because of some street noise.
“We loved our stay at The Oratio and would happily stay there again for the wonderful location and exceptional staff.”
