well priced and well looked after

We enjoyed our stay. It is a typical old style French hotel with small rooms and bathrooms and lifts squeezed in. The area is outside the usual for tourists but not far from Los Gobelins where we have stayed before. I would decribe it as 'mixed' but it's a pretty walk in through the back streets to the Sorbonne area. The hotel staff were vey welcoming and breakfast was excellent but we were there when it was very hot and steamy and not having air conditioning knocked down some of our marks. If you want a well priced hotel within walking/metro distance of the central sites you could do a lot worse.

Average hotel

It was my first time in Paris so i booked this hotel near the pick up point for my italy bus tour for the following day. They gave me a street view room but unfortunately the view i have was a high rise building construction. The room is clean but the flooring is old so you can hear loud noise when you walk. The hotel stairs and hallway was also dark and unpleasing. but the good side was the hotel is within reasonable price and walking distance to metro and good resto and cafe. Mcdonalds and KFC is just few minutes walk too.

Really enjoyed our stay here, well connected to transport links both metro and buses. A compact and comfortable room with pleasant and helpful staff. A good night out was in the Latin quarter which was a short hop away (2-3 bus stops) with plenty of traditional restaurants and bars. Despite recent tragic events, glad we went to Paris in the end as such a great city and one could only admire the fortitude of the people. Vive la France!

Recommended if you're after a decent budget hotel

Had a lovely 3 night stay in one of the top floor rooms, which are small but that's expected for this price range in Paris. Clean room, shame about the lack of air con - it was sweltering and we found it hard to sleep even with the window open and the little fan on. Had requested a room with a bathtub when booked and was about to be given one with a shower room when checked in - when I asked if there were any rooms with bathtubs (as advertised) I was told no, and then yes and eventually got moved to a room with a bathtub. The result was what I wanted and achieved without mush fuss, but it would have been nice if my specific request had been read and taken into consideration... What's the point of being able to make special requests when booking if the hotels don't read them? Other than that it was was great, it's in a quiet neighbourhood and close to the métro - or grab a vélib and cycle downhill into town!

I recommend this hotel

I really enjoyed my stay at the hotel, the staff are very friendly and the rooms are very clean, affordable and even fairly roomy for European standards.

The hotel is located very close to a metro station but is also about 25 min walk to Notre-Dame Cathedral. There are quite a few restaurants and local bakeries around are also a lot cheaper than in the downtown area. I also felt safe when walking around the area at night.

Would definitely recommend this hotel!

Clean, convenient, safe

I stayed here for two nights on a quick stop before heading back to the States. Although the room was tight, it was clean, comfortable, and quiet. It seems to have been recently renovated, so the furniture is all new. The front desk staff is very courteous and available 24 hours. As a solo female traveler, this part of the 13th arrondissement couldn't have been a safer and more convenient place to stay - the Place d'Italie metro stop is right around the corner, so no need to walk a long distance if returning from a night out. There is also a police station just down the street. The surrounding area has everything you need in terms of groceries, ATM, pharmacy, boulangerie (RIGHT next door, in fact), and a plethora of casual restaurants just a block away. I would definitely stay here again!

Good value hotel

We booked a double room with en-suite shower for a weekend stay. The room was very clean and had a safe, hair-dryer. Fairly small room but standard for Paris. The bed was extremely comfortable. 24 hour reception. We didn't have breakfast at the hotel but there was a good selection for a continental breakfast (cereals, pastries, toast, cheese, cold meats). Our room overlooked the street and we were not disturbed by any noise, however during the week there might be more activity (building works opposite). Great location, with metro stations (Gobelins and Place d'Italie) a few minutes' walk away and good local cafes and restaurants. Basic hotel amenities but good value for money. A hospitality tray in the room and a warmer welcome at reception would have made a pleasant stay even better! We would stay here again.

Perfect for the price

The hotel was nice and newly renovated. Everyone we encountered there was very nice. The bathroom is large and the room was spacious. The bakery and restaurants near by were very good and reasonably priced. (The Pizza Del Navona was amazing and they were so polite and friendly). The hotel is very close to a main subway station that made it easy to get a round. There is even a mall near by. The main draw back and the reason I did not rate it higher was due to the lack of AC and/or fan. My wife and can tolerate the heat but we needed some air to circulate and without a fan it was just uncomfortable most nights. It didn't help that we were there during a heatwave like they have not seen in years. Depending on the time of year you go this hotel is perfect for the price.

Tiny room W/O AC

Stepping into the elevator, one feels coming back to a time of early 20th century. It is so tiny, only one one person with a large suitcase. One exits the elevator between two floors, so it would be a problem with a heavy luggage. The room is very compacted without air conditioning, the fan is noisy. There is no screen in the window, so mosquito will fly in if the window is opened.

Would Gladly Stay Again/Recommend

This was my first visit to Paris, and I was completely unprepared for choosing where to book my hotel! We were coming in by train to Gare du Nord and realized pretty quickly that the hotel was very much south of not only the train station, but most of the city. The hotel and staff were lovely. Obviously the room was small but so clean and cozy the size didn't even matter. There is a metro station just around the corner, about a 2 minute walk, so we were able to access & navigate the city easily. The neighborhood seemed safe and really pleasant (although we weren't around much). I would stay here again.

Great Hotel for Price -- Highly recommended

Great location by the Place d'Italie and several major lines. Made getting around in Paris a breeze. Room was decently sized for the price and very comfortable as long as you don't mind laying down vs sitting.

Staff all spoke English and was very helpful. Only real complaint was that one of the drains was missing a trap and would cause the bathroom to occasionally smell faintly to moderately of the sewer. Running the water briefly cleared it up rapidly and repeated trips on the subway lessened any impact.

Decent Choice

After checking in, I was surprised that the rooms were of decent size when compared to other comparable European hotels. Not a ton of room but plenty, considering you don't come to Paris for the hotel. More importantly they were clean and reasonably modern.

There is no real parking at the hotel but nearby (3-4 blocks) I found a reasonably priced option nearby that was cheaper than what the hotel told me about, called Autosur.

The location of the hotel itself is within walking distance from Les Gobelins and Place d'Italie metro stations, so has good access to the rest of the city. The hotel itself is walking distance from some sites like the national history museum. The staff is a little blunt and to the point, but not unfriendly. The price is also cheaper than many other hotel options in Paris, but it is a big city so you won't find a cheap hotel.

While there isn't anything really outstanding about this hotel, the price and location are about right, plus free wireless internet, for a weekend getaway to Paris. Safe travels!

Hotel d'Ecrivains review

Simple, modest and unpretentious this hotel was ideal for my short stay.

It is classed as three stars locally.

The staff were courteous and friendly, English was spoken if required, and the 9F breakfast was quite adequate, although arguably one could obtain a decent breakfast for less in one of the many local cafés. I was not in the best of health during my stay and was very grateful to the young lady receptionist who provided me with a small kettle, cup and tea bags when I requested them ( I was suffering from a nasty virus and desperate to soothe my throat ).

I stayed in a standard double room, basic but clean and tidy, and with everything I needed. Apart from a kettle! Next time I would take one with me or buy a small travel kettle locally. The bathroom was clean and well maintained ( shower only but fine for me, and no bidet, so comparing this to a recent trip to Florence and a stay on a similarly priced hotel, the bathroom scored a little lower in terms of space and facilities. A hair dryer was provided, though not very powerful. The bathroom was literally in a cupboard partitioned off from the room, as is so often the case in smaller places, and though adequate was cramped, with the towels placed high on chrome shelves since there was no wall space for a towel rail. Hotel rooms in Paris are on the whole a great deal more expensive than elsewhere I have found, considering what is available for your euro. Considering this was a double ro

Don't listen to the moaners who say the lift is small: It is exactly the same size as most three star hotel lifts and if you find this a problem, try room 2 on the ground floor, which, for a three star hotel, is uncommonly large and with a truly gigantic bathroom!

Very nice place

Room was a nice size for Paris. Need to leave the key at the desk when you go out was a little different to us. Room was clean, bathroom was clean, food was good. No AC so might be uncomfortable if your not used to the heat. Great location being near Place d'Italie subway station. Only took us 15 minutes by subway to get to most major attractions.

Quaint Hotel

This was a really small hotel but in a good part of Paris and recently remodeled. The rooms were tiny but we expected this as most Paris rooms are. The hotel unfortunately did not let us check-in early. The staff wasn't too sure on recommendations to eat, especially since we had a vegetarian with us on the trip. Overall, it was a good hotel for the price and would definitely stay again if I am on a budget.

Charming Hotel

This hotel was lovely. It's located near the Place d'Italie metro station with nice restaurants near by and a very friendly and accommodating staff. Our room was very cute, clean and the perfect place to stay in Paris. We were about 20mins by metro from the Eiffel Tower and even though we arrived at 9:30am, we were able to leave our luggage and tour the city - that was a great bonus! Many thanks!!

Small but reliable, clean room & great staff

Although Hotel de Ecrivains was very clean, the rooms were very small, especially bathroom. Staff was very nice and helpful. Location involved a walk to the Metro station, but was accessible to most tourist destinations in Paris. Several restaurants, pubs, and bakeries nearby.

Good location, small rooms

The hotel is near the metro (lines 5, 6 and 7) which makes visiting a lot easier. There is an RER B station at 4 stops on line 6 ( for those going to Charles De Gaulle airport). There is a nice couscous restaurant next door and a few bank machines less than a block away. The only thing that I didn't like was the size of the room ...the bed was comfortable, the bathroom was adequate with a nice shower.

Nice locat2

Hotel location is okay. Close to the place d' italie metro and walking distance to a shopping centre/supermarket.

Bed was too small and fan was not good at all. It was warm inside the room. Our room was next to a courtyard of locals. Noisy and all you here was loud voices and early in the morning loud noise from neighborhood. Unpleasant for us. Didn't sleep at all for 4 days.

Hôtel des Ecrivains

This was our first time in Paris so we were a bit concerned about where the hotel might be situated! We were delighted to discover it was in a lovely neighbourhood with wonderful cafes/bars and shops.
On arrival at the hotel we were greeted by friendly helpful staff who were able to converse with us in English. The room was very clean and well laid out. The view through the balcony was the only slight negative as it was opposite a derelict police station that had been abandoned some 3 years previously.
Overall we were delighted with the hotel and would definitely return.

Near metro, clean, comfortable

Perfect budget hotel. Comfy beds, bathroom simple and functional, including hair dryer and a pull out mirror! Small but that's Paris. Several good food options nearby. Would stay again and recommend.
