Fine hotel in a very nice area. Rooms are simple and plain but do the job. Bathrooms leave some to be desired: there are no hooks to hang a towel on, the shower door wasn’t flush with the wall so the floor inevitably floods when the water is on, and there’s no mount for the toilet paper, just a loose roll. The staff are hit or miss: I found most to be polite, friendly, and helpful, but one of them was less so.

Not impressed

I booked this hotel as a last minute quick deal thinking this small local hotel could be charming. Instead, it was cramped and the ambiance was cold. The staff’s service was not good at all to be honest, as bad as I feel to say it since they let me check in early.
They were in the middle of painting and their handyman literally ignored my greeting and scowled at me in the face as I was went up to my room, then the cleaning lady walked into my room without knocking to fill the soap dispenser (and didn’t ask if she could come in once she look of shock on my face, rather just continued to let herself in) and the front desk clerks barely greeted me, not even a goodbye or thank you when I checked out.
Was not impressed, this all made the tiny single person elevator seem like a treat...

Still can’t get over how the handy man looked like he wanted to kill me for absolutely no reason.

The hotel is a typical European hotel, room was on the smaller side, could use a deep cleaning, but nothing startling. For the price, it was definitely valuable.

The area is quite dull, but close the the 1(yellow) metro station and the C RER line, which takes you to Versailles directly and CDG via a connection to the RER B.

Perfect for Bastille Opera

Excellent location near Bastille Opera and Quai de la Rapee metro (far easier to navigate than Bastille). Quiet street with a good Vegan (! for Paris) on corner and a lovely little Vietnamese restaurant further along (opposite a swankier Thai one). Lift only takes one person and a case and there are a few steps up from it on all floors so not accessible in many ways. The pink walls and doors are different and brighten things up a bit compared to the sober room decor. Nice to have an opening window as well as air-con. Usual tiny en-suite with no room for larger people on toilet squashed against basin, but tolerable for short stay. Excellent value for central Paris, nice staff and good transport links.

Paris - First Time Visit

The hotel really didn't look like the pictures on Venere whatsoever. I'm not sure why all the reviews are so high - the rooms were so tiny, the hotel was hard to find, hotel service - no one seemed to want to help, the elevator was just scary, they weren't consistent with their own rules - maybe it's difficult to stay in a decent hotel in Paris for around $100 a night. Would definitely try to find a different hotel than this one if I visit Paris again. It was located in the Bastille section of Paris which seemed to have a vibrant night life.

Great location - but don't expect too much

Overall I would recommend this hotel, but as long as you understand what you're getting when you book.
For the area (walking distance of Opera Bastille, Gare de Lyon, Hotel de Ville, Notre Dame etc) it's hard to find a better price - BUT don't expect any frills at all. I had Room 106 which was one of the hotels more expensive rooms (called a superior double room) but in fact it was fairly basic (not even a kettle to make a cup of tea - let alone cups, cutlery etc) and despite the fact that it was non-smoking, it had definitely been smoked in many times. It was large on European standards, but somewhat tatty.
The bed was great, the room was made up punctually and reliably, reception staff very friendly and helpful.
BUT - I can't say whether it's just this particular room, but there was the 'thump thump' of dance music coming from a neighbouring apartment 24 HOURS A DAY - seriously... nearly drove me nuts, and I found it very hard to sleep most nights.

Nice hotel!

The hotel and the staff was wonderful. Breakfast was good and there are lots of varieties to choose from. The only thing is the space of the elevator and the exit/enter area around the elevator from the floors. If you are a big American, then for sure you will complaint about it. But for a hotel that price range with friendly staff, I don't really mind it, since you only carry your luggage twice in that elevator: 1 when check in and the other time for checking out. Bathroom was surprisingly big. Bed was comfortable and the room was cozy/warm enough that I didn't feel small.

Comfortable hotel in a superb location near Seine

Had a wonderful stay here. Staff was great. There was someone at the desk 24x7 and we were always welcomed with a smile. They allowed us to keep our luggage in the hotel after we checked out in the morning since our train was only in the evening. Room was very small but comfortable. I guess the size is what you get for the prime location. Room service was very good. It's really close to the river Seine and a couple of minutes walk from the Bastille metro station. We had no problems getting to places from the hotel given the super location. A few good restaurants nearby. Safe neighbourhood, we had no issues walking around at night.

I a sorry that I can't agree with the overall high rating for this hotel - I was happy to see such a well rated cheap hotel near the Gare de Lyon and really anticipated staying there. Positive: It is 10-15 inute walk to GdL, less to the bastille opera. Reality: Reception area has train station decor, my room was dark, dingy and nearly the smallest ever seen. It was advertized as 17 sq ft but a third of that was a narrow hallway that couldn't be used to put suitcase without blocking the door. Nowhere to open suitcase without blocking the door. dark laminate furniture, plastic coated drapes in dull gold. depressing, airless room. stool, no chai, provided for seating - when I pulled it out it was covered with crumbs; it also blocked the room and couldn't be pulled out far enough to put suitcase on. advertized coffee making equipment in room; no there. advertised wifi- not working in room or in reception. I go to Paris every 6 weeks for one week for the past 8 years; my phones, ipods and computers have worked in every hotel, bistro and even park over this time, but not one device worked anywhere in this hotel. The staff told me the wifi worked for them and it must be my equipment. Must have heard this compalint a million times. I only ask that what is advertised is present. I actually would rate this hotel lower but did notice that other rooms were a bit larger and brighter with white walls instead of dark beige and brown. and location saves it.
