Reviews and Ratings
The hotel rooms may feel small for two people in a 'double' room and there might be some traffic noise. Despite the small size and occasional hallway smell due to busy traffic, the staff is very welcoming and helpful. The location is ideal for those working nearby, with easy access to a Metro station and plenty of local brasseries. The dining options are nice but may come with an additional cost. Facilities are adequate, providing a comfortable stay overall.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were clean and cozy but a bit small and outdated, with some noise from nearby trains. The service was welcoming and helpful, but there was an extra charge for breakfast. The location was excellent with easy access to shops and eateries, although noise was a drawback. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel in the heart of Paris. The room, although facing the inner courtyard, was surprisingly calm despite the busy traffic outside. The hotel's convenient location near a metro station made getting around and exploring the city so easy. The availability of tea/coffee facilities and a small fridge in the room was a nice touch for getting ready.
The hotel is conveniently located for the Metro and exploring on foot, with small but clean and comfortable rooms at the front. However, the lobby is a bit too small for comfort.
The hotel has everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The rooms are small but cosy, making them very comfortable for one person, though it might feel cramped for two. The service here was absolutely amazing, with helpful staff who made my stay even more pleasant. The location is excellent, being right next to a Metro station with convenient access to shops and eateries. The dining experience was very good, especially with a nearby restaurant less than a 2-minute walk away. Overall, a great value for money hotel with a few minor drawbacks.
