Bottom Line
La Manufacture is a mid-range, 57-room hotel housed in a beautiful Haussmannian building on Paris' Left Bank. The impressively colorful and arty styling of the lobby doesn't quite extend to the rooms, but they still provide a pleasant, understated decor, while top-level rooms provide special views. Amenities consist of breakfast for a fee, free Wi-Fi, an on-site bar, and a lobby computer terminal. Although the location of the property isn't super central, nearby transport links and plenty of local color means that the hotel's generally low rates can be a real bargain.

Scene
Elegant 19th-century building with colorful arty interiors
La Manufacture is housed in a particularly elegant 19th-century building in the Haussmannian architectural style with a white limestone facade, ornate carved stonework, and intricate wrought-iron window railings. Drawing inspiration and its name from the famous Gobelins textile factory nearby, the lobby is a charming, vibrant space awash with colorful Philippe Hurel designer furnishings and vibrant, eye-catching artwork by Italian artist Alberto Conti. A polished wooden floor leads to two elevators and a wonderful spiral staircase that winds up the seven floors of the hotel. The vibe here is warm and welcoming, and the arty, laid-back atmosphere attracts mostly international tourists who want something different that’s not overly pricey.
Location
Set in the 13th arrondissement, near the Place d'Italie transport hub
Situated near the Latin Quarter, La Manufacture is located on Paris' Left Bank in the 13th arrondissement to the south. Positioned on a small street just next to the Avenue des Gobelins, the Place d'Italie transport hub is just three minutes' walk south, making it very convenient for guests to get around the city. There are various attractions within walking distance as well, including Paris' most “authentic” street, the Rue Mouffetard, full of restaurants, shops, and cafes. The district is also home to Paris' principal Asian community, with the Asian Quarter 15 minutes south by foot. Orly Airport is only 15 to 20 minutes south by car (25 minutes by public transportation) while Charles de Gaulle Airport is a 40 minutes’ drive northeast (45 minutes by public transportation).
Rooms
Simple, cozy rooms have balconies offering iconic Parisian views
La Manufacture has 57 rooms spread over seven floors, all of which are decorated in a simple and cozy yet decidedly average style that doesn't quite deliver on the promise of the public areas. Still, units are clean and modern, and some have balconies, a couple of which offer distant views of the Eiffel Tower and Panthéon. Amenities include free Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs, and air-conditioning, while bathrooms provide wall-mounted hairdryers and all-natural toiletries. Some fixtures are starting to show signs of wear and, as is typical for Paris, rooms can be a little cramped.
Features
Free Wi-Fi throughout and Internet terminal in lobby
La Manufacture serves a buffet and cooked-to-order breakfast each morning in the playful dining area, though the meals are generally not included in the rate. The bar is decorated in the same upbeat arty style as the lobby and serves drinks until late; guests can also order drinks from their rooms. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the hotel and there’s a computer terminal in the lobby.
