“Cute little hotel near the metro”

Very cute, small hotel close to the metro. Reasonably priced even for the Rugby World Cup. Room and bathroom small but spotless. Bed very comfortable. My only fault was the small shower. Rugby playing family had a tight squeeze but the water force was strong. Breakfast was continental and very nice and fresh. Lovely staff and the big bonus was parking around the corner for €13 a day which is a major plus. I would definitely come here again and highly recommend. Incidentally there’s a lovely French restaurant down the road…very authentic and great food and staff called Brasserie Le Flore. Again very reasonably priced.

“Great little Hotel”

Ideal for short break. Location is handy, not far from La Defense metro. Friendly receptionists who spoke good English. We didn’t manage to make breakfast, but their is plenty places to grab food close by. Theirs a little grocery over the road, dominos pizza, pizza restaurants and 2/3 min walk to… more

Ideal for short break. Location is handy, not far from La Defense metro. Friendly receptionists who spoke good English. We didn’t manage to make breakfast, but their is plenty places to grab food close by. Theirs a little grocery over the road, dominos pizza, pizza restaurants and 2/3 min walk to a sandwich shop as you go right out the building. The bathroom was modern, with lights within the shower walls which was quirky. The bed itself was very comfy and helped us have a good night sleep after a lot of walking/ sightseeing. We didn’t actually request another pillow, but it would of been better if we could of easily grabbed one out the cupbard (instead we folded up a blanket). We was given WiFi code as we checked in. We would leave our key with the receptionist when we left, so we couldn’t lose it. Our bed was made and bathroom was cleaned everyday. They asked for a small refundable charge on a credit/debit card at the start of the trip which - which was just under £40. The room and bathroom are very small, but for as short weekend I don’t see how it could be an issue. At the end of the trip we was charged €1.50 each per night as city tax. We used Uber to and from hotel, as their was a huge queue waiting for taxis. Going to the hotel Friday nights we was charged €46 but going back to the airport Monday morning we was charged €67 - we think this was because it was peak time , rush hour traffic etc. We used Uber mainly to get about as you know who your getting, you don’t need to use cash, their is plenty about (longest wait was 7 minutes) and you can keep an on eye where they should be taking you so that you can’t get ripped off. We used an Uber to Champs de Elsyee which is stop 8 on the big bus tour, which we then used to get round all the tourist attractions, this was about €12-€18 euros depending on the time of day. The hop on hop off tour was great, we got the deluxe which was for two days, including night and river cruise tour. Also another thing I would suggest is go and see Le Monde de Jelaya - Cirque de Panama at the Hippodrome, Longchamp racecourse. It’s a spectacular show and you won’t be disappointed. We got Uber their and back which was about €14 each way. You can’t pre-book an Uber back for a certain time, so request an u we and put in comments (in Cirque de Panama within racecourse).

“Very, very small rooms, very noisy air-conditioning.”

A typical Paris 3-star hotel with very small rooms. Like really small. One normal travel bag was challenging to get opened properly, with two bags it was really bag acrobatics. The air-conditioning was the noisiest I have ever experienced on a hotel room. Rooms have seen better days, but they were … more

A typical Paris 3-star hotel with very small rooms. Like really small. One normal travel bag was challenging to get opened properly, with two bags it was really bag acrobatics. The air-conditioning was the noisiest I have ever experienced on a hotel room. Rooms have seen better days, but they were clean and also cleaned properly during our stay. The only funny thing was that only one set of towels was delivered to the room, we had to ask a second set every day (and yes, we checked that we were registered for double occupancy) The staff was friendly. Breakfast OK, nothing special but all essentials were there. Would I stay here again? Yes if there were really no other alternatives. The price level was *really* high for the overall quality.
