Warm, Friendly and Fabulous
I disagreed with previous reviews of this hotel, its has recently been refurbished and therefore I do not think any previous comments made about it stand for much any more.
The hotel was freshly decorated, the staff were friendly and the location was great, far enough out of town to not be caught up in the main city life but not too far to gain access to any of the tourist attractions.
We didn't have the breakfast there, but you can find somewhere that sells pastries etc near by and the metro is fabulous for getting around anywhere in the city.
I recommend this hotel for anyone that isn't looking for an exclusive deluxe room and just for a comfy stay in Paris for a reasonable price.

Unbelievable!
My friend and I stayed at this hotel as part of a special deal with Eurostar. While we did get a good rate, the value for money was extremely poor. The hotel was undergoing a renovation (there was no mention of this when we booked) and as a result there were holes in the ceiling, dust everywhere and general mess. Our room was tiny, dingy and the amenities were a kettle, a rubbish packet of coffe and some flimsy plastic cups. This certainly isn't my idea of 3 star!! The really annoying thing though is the expense of all the extras. When we checked in, we were told that breakfast would be served in the basement. What we weren't told was that breakfast wasn't included in the rate and it was an incredible TWELVE EUROS (which we only found out when we checked out)!! This may be reasonable if it was a large, elaborate spread, but all we got was some bread, a few small pastries, eggs that we had to boil ourselves and orange juice we had to squeeze ourselves - worth about one Euro, not twelve....Read more
