I go there every month, the price is ecxellent and the staff is very friendly.
There are a lot of shops and also le gare du nord. You don't have le grand luxe but you don't have to pay for that. This is for me the best hotel in Paris.

I've just returned from Paris and I'll try to help people who is thinking about staying at this hotel.
It's not a good hotel. I mean, you can only use it to sleep and take a shower (at least if there's one in your bedroom).
Beds are quite comfortable and noise can be stopped if you close the windows.
People from hotel are friendly, they even lend you things as forks, knives, more towels..if you ask for it.
The situation is great if you're a tourist, there are supermarkets, restaurants, bakery, apotheke...all near the hotel.
It's not a family hotel but for youth, you get a free place to sleep. No bugs and clean every day.

I was unfortunate to accidently leave some items of clothing in my room when I left this hotel. I spoke to the manager and staff several times (as did my French housemate), and they promised to return my belongings if I faxed them my address, which I did twice. I offered to pay for the postage of course. I never received the items and they began to fob me off each time I called. Some of the staff were very rude on the phone. Very dissapointing.

Frankly, you get what you pay for. As a place to sleep for the night, it's great - comfy beds, shower (as long as you go ensuite) and great transport links. Staff are reasonably friendly, and contrary to other reviews, there are some electrical sockets. There is a lot of traffic on the road all night, but if you've spent all day exploring Paris like you should, you'll have no trouble sleeping. The elevators could be described as scary, but it's quite fun, and we saw no evidence of cigarette smoke or bed bugs. Just don't come expecting luxury.

Fabulous location and a more than eager staff greeted my friends and I during my 2nd visit to Paris and my 2nd stay at the Grand Hotel Magenta. It's nothing fancy, but it's clean and secure. Get a room ensuite, if possible, and be sure to take advantage of the stellar location (5 minute walk to Gare du Nord). Definitely going to stay here again the next time I'm in Paris!
