Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has some standout features like spacious rooms with plasma TVs; however, the bathroom had no working light. The staff is incredibly friendly and even bakes a daily cake for guests, but the 24-hour reception did not answer the doorbell as promised. The location is good, with easy access to metro stations and key attractions, but some rooms faced a colder outdoor side with maintenance issues like broken showers and bidets. The dining options were limited but satisfactory, and the bar had a refined touch. Overall, the facilities were decent with a beautiful bar and fitness area.
My stay at the hotel was quite a mixed experience. The rooms had a strange stench and some unwanted visitors in the form of moths, but the effort put into birthday decorations with balloons and a happy birthday sign was a nice touch. The view directly into the breakfast room was not ideal, but the neighborhood was lively with bistros and close to metro lines.
The hotel had both advantages and drawbacks. The rooms, despite being hot and loud due to rooftop noises, were always well-prepared, clean, spacious, and nicely decorated. The service was excellent, with friendly and English-speaking staff, although the poorly maintained establishment was a concern. The location was fantastic for those wanting proximity to metro stations, cafes, shops, and bakeries, close to popular attractions and bistros. The dining experience varied from simple but good to plain when compared to other hotels. Overall, the facilities were satisfactory.
The hotel is situated in a lovely neighborhood with various bistros nearby and close to two metro lines. The rooms are spacious, unlike many other Paris hotels, offering a more comfortable stay. The friendly staff, including Gideon, Mary, Pauline, and Jonathan, were always helpful. However, the room had maintenance issues like a poorly closing window and cracked walls, impacting the overall experience.
My room had been recently refurbished with new wallpaper, carpets, curtains, and a large TV on the wall. The bed was very comfortable, and I even found a nice Easter treat on the table. However, there was a persistent stench and moths around, which was off-putting.
The hotel had a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms had a moldy smell, were old and dirty with stained carpets, but there was a comfortable bed and a nice Easter treat on the table. Direct view into the breakfast room. Service was friendly and helpful but unaware of the correct payment amount. Excellent location close to major attractions, but the hotel showed signs of aging.
The hotel rooms looked bigger in photos but were quite close to one another, making it easy to hear neighbors talking. The light system was a bit tricky, turning on all lights or none. Service was lovely, with friendly and helpful staff, although the return to the hotel at night was a bit depressing. The location is perfect, with a 10-minute walk to the Eiffel Tower and a fantastic patio with a hot tub. The dining experience could have been better, as it starts late and lacks variety, although the sandwiches were good.
The hotel had some room issues like small, unhygienic conditions but the service was mostly good. The location was convenient for major attractions, despite some cleanliness issues. The dining options were pleasant and fresh. The facilities were adequate for a comfortable stay.
The hotel is situated in a calm residence neighborhood, providing a nice retreat away from the busy tourist areas. The rooms were spacious and clean, offering a comfortable stay, although noise from the rooftop could sometimes be heard at night. The staff members were mostly polite and helpful, except for one incident where a check-in was delayed due to a long argument with another customer over the phone.
