I have booked a weekend away as a suprise for my wife for our 1st annivrsary. I decided on a superior room at the La Sorbonne Hotel in St.Germain. Has anyone stayed here before? If so, I beleive it is rather central but how central is it? And how far is the nearest metro station?
Thanks

You can see metro stops by putting the hotel address in a Google map, or go to the Paris transport site,
www.ratp.fr
It is very centrally located, recently remodeled - I%26#39;m sure it will be good.

This is on their web page and it only gives you a small idea of how well located the hotel is...
LOCATION
A few minutes%26#39; walk from the sites, great shopping just nearby, easy airport access... the Hotel de la Sorbonne couldn%26#39;t be better situated.
Sightseeing - The Pantheon, Luxembourg Gardens and Notre Dame are just a few minutes walk away... The Louvre and Eiffel Tower aren%26#39;t far. Sightseeing is so much simpler when your hotel%26#39;s in the heart of the city.
Shopping - From the designer boutiques of Saint Germain to the so chic Bon Marché department store, shop like a real Parisian: with style.
Going out - Café de Flore, Les Deux Magots, Brasserie Lipp, Le Petit Journal... the best restaurants, famous cafés and swinging jazz clubs are all in the area.
Culture - The majestic stone buildings of the Sorbonne University are literally opposite. The bookstores and art galleries of Saint Germain are a short walk away.

We collected our apartment keys from the hotel Sorbonne last year, it was about 4 minutes walk from the Luxemberg RER/metro stop, down a side street near the university and very well situated but probably quiet.
The Luxemberg Gardens are across the road from the metro stop and you can walk to St Germain through them ( very pleasant) Rue Mouffetard is not far away (5 mins) and there are lots of shops, restaurants etc about. Pantheon is round the corner. Jardins des Plantes is about 10 minutes walk towards the river.
There is another Metro on Place Monge about 8 minutes walk and also Cardinale limone a similar distance. All these take you in different directions.
It probably takes about 10 to 15 minutes interesting walk along Boulevard St Michel to place St Michel and the river, Notre Dame, st Chappelle.
Although we rented thier apartment we were treated very well by the manager and staff and I would not hesitate to recommend them.
You will enjoy I%26#39;m sure.
