Hôtel des Marronniers, rue Jacob

Rue Jacob, at the back of a courtyard

Hôtel des Marronniers is at 21 rue Jacob, in the 6th arrondissement, at the end of a paved courtyard. The street lies in the Saint-Germain international tourist zone. Atout France classified the hotel three stars on 26 October 2023, with 36 rooms, and the operator is not tied to a group in the sources we read.

Saint-Germain-des-Prés (line 4) is 250 m away, three minutes on foot. Mabillon on line 10 takes four minutes and Odéon, lines 4 and 10, eight.

Garden, veranda and bar

The garden is open to guests and ends in a veranda where the hotel serves breakfast as a buffet. A tea room and bar stay open until 11.30 pm. The hotel lists individual air conditioning and sells a “Familiale” category. On the other hand, the hotel itself says it is not accessible to guests with reduced mobility, which matters for a courtyard address.

Where it sits among Saint-Germain hotels

Of the 116 classified hotels in the wider Saint-Germain zone, 41 are three-star, 55 four-star and 11 five-star; only 9 have one or two stars. Hôtel des Marronniers is one of two three-star addresses in our list here, with Hôtel Michelet Odéon (42 rooms, air conditioning, family rooms). The Marronniers has the garden and the bar; Hôtel La Louisiane, a two-star with 63 rooms, lists pets. Four-star houses such as Hôtel Récamier are in a different category. The Saint-Germain guide lines them up.

On foot from the door

From place Saint-Germain-des-Prés the median time is 13 minutes to the Louvre (a direct walk of 1,033 m), 11.5 to Notre-Dame by metro and 30 to the Eiffel Tower. Those 30 minutes start with a walk to the Musée d’Orsay and continue on the RER C, because the line 4 station at Saint-Michel is shut until 19 December 2026 (City of Paris). The 6th arrondissement holds the Luxembourg garden and the Institut de France; the Seine lies to the north. The wider list is on our page for hotels in the 6th arrondissement.
