8/10 Very Good
Jun 23, 2024
Let's start off with the positive. The hotel staff are genuine, and very accommodating - they will do their best to ensure finding your way around Paris and using the Metro/RER is a breeze, they are friendly too... My only problem (and the reason this is not 5 star) is unless you're in the beautiful centre of Paris, the further you go from the centre, the dirtier Paris gets, and more dangerous it can start to feel for some... I'm all for experience, this hotel would be worth every penny if external to the hotel was of the same standard as the best parts of Paris...dont let this put you off staying, it is a very convenient location, for first time visitors just be aware and ready to accept the fact Paris has its own charm, along with its less than charming side...
Pros:
>air conditioning (turn this on w/ sound of sea videos from YouTube to beat the traffic sound as you are right next to the road, I'm a light sleeper and it works a treat),
>gym (if you're a gym person, you'll have it to yourself and may have one of your more memorable gym sess's here),
>Convient location - can walk to the Louvre in 30 mins, or catch the Metro which is 2 minutes from hotel - shops and supermarket 2mins from hotel (did see a rat in store. This is part of the less charming side of Paris I mentioned above)
