Just as all the reviews said, spotless with lovely staff. Very comfortable beds. A double room is quite small for two but it's Paris and all hotel rooms are small. Staff friendly and helpful. Loved the cafe area downstairs and the access to a fridge. No-one takes anything so your food water etc. is safe. Brilliant and quiet location 5 mins from Place de Clichy 25 mins bus to Marché aux Puces and a 20 minute walk to Galeries Lafayette. Buses are great and frequent to the area and sometimes faster than the metro. Really enjoyed it would highly recommend.

The hotel is very clean, within walking distance to the metro and many restaurants. Loved the coffee machine in the lobby. I wasn’t much of a fan of coffee in the restaurants. Everyone on staff was extremely friendly and professional. We really enjoyed our stay. We would definitely consider staying here again.

The elevator extremely small and is occupied the majority of the day by cleaning staff. They often fill it with their cleaning supplies, towels and sheets and just run it up and down between the floors…..leaving their supplies in it. With only one elevator, it makes it hard on ppl with arthritis and joint issues since the stairs are the only option. The rooms are small but we used packing cubes and stacked them on the shelves in the cupboard. The less luggage the better. We had 2 carry ons and 2 checked bags….they fit….but anymore luggage would make it difficult to maneuver around the room

I really enjoyed my stay at hôtel Darcet. It is a good hotel for travellers seeking rooms at an affordable price and in a good location unless they are interested in amenities. The room was comfortable for 1 person (even for 2 provided they get along in a medium-sized room). The size of the bathroom was OK. Soap was provided by the hotel. The room was clean and the staff entered the room on a daily basis to tidy up and throw trash away. The bed was comfortable. The room also included a medium window, without good view however, but much light entered the room. The hotel staff was nice, friendly and helpful. When I asked for a cab to the airport, they arranged one with a professional driver. The reception is open all day and an employee guards the hotel door. Moreover, a small garden is available for clients to sit as well as a medium-sized room with tables, where coffee is offered for free (decent coffee machine). The location is very central, close to 2 metro lines (100 metres). The historical center of Paris can be reached at approximately 15-30 minutes depending on where you are going (Eiffel 20-25 minutes, Latin Quarter 30 minutes, Arts-et-Metier 15-20 minutes, CDG 60-80 minutes). Nearby the hotel there are various bars/restaurants and people out until late, therefore I felt safe in this area. Note that the hotel is near Pigalle (10 min walking). This may disturb conservative people. However, I enjoyed this interesting side of Paris and the area also seemed safe. P.S. I think that the photographs in Booking terribly underestimate the hotel. In Booking, the hotel looks old and ugly. The only reason I booked it was because of the affordable price and the good reviews. However, I was surprised to see a rather modern and very beautiful hotel. Indicatively, Google Maps includes several photos contributed by clients that are more representive of the hotel. I highly suggest that the hotel manager put more effort on improving the photos in Booking.

I really enjoyed the stay at this hotel. In particular 1) I have appreciated that on my arrival, at 10 am, after a long bus trip, I could enter my room! It's the first time that I could enter the room with so large advance with respect to check-in time 2) The hotel provides a shared room with a free machine for hot drinks (coffe, milk, etc); you can buy sweets at the boulangerie in front of the hotel. 3) The hotel is in a quiet street close to Montparnasse. Nearby there are lots of shops, a metro station and other bus stops. During my stay (end of June), I mainly used Lime shared bikes. With respect to public transportation, moving with electric bikes is faster and more funny (and more or less at the same cost). 4) The reception is open 24 hours; the staff is very kind. 5) My room was perfect, with independent and quiet AC

Nothing to point out. Perhaps the bathroom is a bit small, and also the room is not very large, but I suppose that this is the standard in Paris. Consider that you will not spend much time in the room, there are lots of things to do in Paris. Also Wifi should be improved, the signal is not stable.

Hotel Darcet is in a great location, very close to Place de Clichy metro station. The hotel is clean throughout, the staff were all pleasant and our room was very comfortable. There are great cafes and bars in the area (we recommend Land and Monkeys for pastries, Cyrano for wine!), and it takes 30 minutes max to get to Gare du Nord by metro. We stayed in Paris for three days and Hotel Darcet was perfect for us!

Not a dislike, but the lift is very small. If you are staying as a family or taking bulky luggage, you'll need to do multiple trips or use the stairs.

A gem of a hotel. The reception staff are very friendly and speak excellent english. The location was perfect for our week long tourist visit. Multiple bus lines near by that go to all the key tourist sites. Hotel has a shared kitchen area which is great for preparing your own meals. AC setting is hotel wide though we didn't have any problems even when it was very hot outside. Housekeeping do an excellent job with daily cleaning.

The hotel left only positive impressions. The room was clean and cozy, which made our stay very comfortable. The location is very convenient — just a 5-minute walk from the metro and bus stops, making it easy to access all the main attractions. On the first floor, free coffee and tea are available 24/7 — a nice touch for guests. The staff was very polite and friendly, always ready to help. The area around the hotel feels safe and quiet in the evening, which is also important for a relaxing stay. Overall, it’s a great choice for tourists who want to enjoy Paris!

Clean, like really clean - more than expected (No1 reason to come back) (although short and narrow) comfy beds, cotton linen, again clean and safe feel Proper shutters - pich black to sleep Easily accesible via various transportation, cute neighborhood, lots of shops and places to eat Great temp. and water pressure, big shower Easy and welcoming from the very (late, came at 1AM) start to end of the stay

Overall unexpectedly fantastic stay, but: Zero soundproofing - guests till late in the night coming/going/showering etc., staff from early on mornings chatting away Only window in a room opens to a sort of ultra mini inner courtyard, where guests and/or staff are smoking, not 24/7, but often enough you don't get any fresh air Came to a freezing cold room on 1st night, slept under 2 duvets, 1 radiator for the 3-bed room, never gets more than luke warm (maybe it is a season thing) Strong sewage smell in the room (easily toned down by putting the toilet lid down and closing the bathroom door) Just 1 place to put you things in the shower would be helpful

The room was no frills (as expected), but great for the price! The location is ideal to access the metro and the rooms are cleaned every day. What really stood out to me about the hotel was the staff. I really enjoyed my stay as a solo traveler and will book again!

I had to change rooms after my first night, likely due to the length of my booking and general logistics. I ended up liking my second room better as it was on the top floor and got great light through the window. The staff relocated my bags to the new room and made what could have been a big inconvenience fairly seamless.

The hotel had everything one really needs: good comfortable beds, good working shower, well located and the staff were truly excellent. Good brasseries and shops nearby, metro station about 100 metres away.

I didn't have any serious dislikes. No breakfast service. The rooms were fairly basic... no soaps, toiletries as in other hotels, just basic liquid soap for shampoo and washing. But all that really didn't matter to me.
