Ibis Styles Paris Gare De L'est Tgv

“Convenient location”

This hotel is a short walk from the Gare du Nord, and an even shorter walk from the Gare de l’Est.

This hotel is a short walk from the Gare du Nord, and an even shorter walk from the Gare de l’Est. Possibly because of proximity to the latter station, the hotel seems particularly popular with German speakers. We stayed here because we've had long waits for Uber after arriving late at night on Eurostar at the Gare du Nord, so we preferred a short walk to go straight to bed. The bed was very comfortable, giving a good night’s sleep. External noise from the street below was barely audible, and the room was comfortably warm. Although the small rooms had clearly been refurbished in recent years, there were power sockets on only one side of the bed. Presumably whoever designed the rooms oddly believes that only one half of each couple has a smartphone and/or smartwatch. On the positive side, the television had BBC World. No soap was provided in the bathroom, only shower gel, which was disappointing. No flannels were provided either. Breakfast was adequate and the sausages were very good, but nothing else was particularly special with only two choices of juice. Don't forget to take your breakfast ticket to breakfast, which are you given upon check-in.

“Perfect hotel for a few nights”

Great hotel for a few nights. We booked an adjoining room and both rooms were perfectly fine. Decent sized beds, really comfy, great bathrooms with fresh towels and toilet rolls each day.

Great hotel for a few nights. We booked an adjoining room and both rooms were perfectly fine. Decent sized beds, really comfy, great bathrooms with fresh towels and toilet rolls each day. The staff were always available to help and spoke English well which was most helpful. The breakfast was perfect being a buffet continental style, great fresh orange juice and great coffee. We were really grateful to be able to leave our cases there on the last day. We felt safe and slept well there. Great location with Metro entrance a few steps outside of the hotel.

“Convenient and friendly hotel across the Gare.”

My wife and I stayed one night, crossing the street from the Gare de l'Est(a few doors down from the conspicuous Burger King) in a vibrant area of hotels, shops and restaurants. A smiling receptionist was welcoming and quick to provide our key card for the front door, elevator and front door. We ch… more

My wife and I stayed one night, crossing the street from the Gare de l'Est(a few doors down from the conspicuous Burger King) in a vibrant area of hotels, shops and restaurants. A smiling receptionist was welcoming and quick to provide our key card for the front door, elevator and front door. We chose a welcome drink/juice before taking their lone elevator up to our 3rd floor prepaid queen. Corner room #36 was well lit with a very comfortable bed, charging outlets, small desk and a window overlooking the ibis interior courtyard. The nice sized bathroom/shower had a window opening to a different courtyard with rooms undergoing refurbishment(quiet at night). The small open closet lacked hangers. The 6AM serviced breakfast was excellent, beginning with a coffee machine(also used after our arrival), fresh squeezed OJ, muesli with soy milk, croissants/pain au chocolat, yogurt, eggs, cheese, meats and fruit. We walked 100m southwest, passing a crepe/panini stand, an HSBC ATM to an excellent Naturalia organic grocery.

Booked to stay for 3 nights whilst visiting Paris. We just wanted somewhere cheap, clean and comfortable to crash after a busy day’s sightseeing and that’s exactly what we got. Nothing about this hotel is anything special but it does the job. Rooms including bathroom were clean if rather small, and had everything needed including hair dryer and safe. It’s true that the staff weren’t amazingly friendly or smiley but they answered out questions when we needed them to. The included breakfast was much appreciated and again exactly as expected, nothing special, simple croissants, cereal, fruit, coffee and juice. Area wasn’t the nicest but was busy enough to feel safe. Wouldn’t have wanted to walk around on my own at night but as a couple the 2min walk from station to hotel felt perfectly fine. At the end of the day you get what you pay for. We paid for a basic, cheap hotel and that’s what we got.
