Great location with near by cafes

Very well located hotel for anyone passing through Paris using Gare de l'Est or Gare du Nord. Reception staff were very friendly. My room was great, I felt safe walking around the area and the breakfast was great. The hotel stored my luggage for me, and the check-in time is 2pm, so earlier than most other hotels (and my room was available early).

As stated in other reviews - the lift is a bit strange. I opted to use the stairs instead. The corridors are narrow, but my room was a good size, and that matters more.

The staff were super friendly, helpful, and amazing. The location near the train station was perfect. The facilities were clean and there was daily cleaning. We asked for an iron, and we got it. We got extra coffee when we requested it.

There are a lot of vagrants at night who were noisy and scary. We did not feel safe walking in the neighbourhood at night. It was hard to sleep with the noise in the street. There was no fan, which forced us to open the windows as it was hot, but that meant the outside noise was loud

Catching train at Gare de L.est the next day. This has everything you need for travelling and is five minutes from L'est. Single room big enough with important kettle to brew, hairdryer. Good breakfast. Staff very helpful. The safe didn't work but apart from that this was excellent for my requirements. Don't miss the canal area at the end of Recollect for another area of Paris.

The safe didn't work in Room 61

This was the second time I stayed in this hotel. I came back because of the friendliness of the reception staff, the comfy bed, good shower and perfect location for me. However, the second time, it was the Fete de la Musique (when all hell breaks loose in Paris.) It wasn't such a great night because of unbearable noise. Also the price had almost doubled because of the Fete.

The rooms are really clean and comfy, but the entrance and foyer need a bit of TLC. It looks quite shabby from the outside and the foyer has seen better days. This in no way detracts from the friendly welcome, but it wouldn't cost much to give it a lick of paint.

I recommend this hotel if you are planing your trip to Paris on budget. The room was clean but small, the bathroom was surprisingly clean and the breakfast was not great, not bad.

I don’t know why but i heard along my stay different noises from the street, I suppose. Also a big minus is that you heard if your neighbor is doing a shower

We had a very pleasant stay. The staff took very good care of our belongings and even let us deposit our luggage before check-in as we arrived early. The breakfast was overly positive for a fair price - great selection! Our room for two was very small but also comfy. We could even spot the Eiffel Tower from our window! Lastly, the Gare de L’Est main station is only three minutes away so you can easily get around Paris!

The room cleaning schedule sometimes overlapped with breakfast times so we happened to run into the employees. It wasn’t always easy to communicate without some knowledge of French. Also, grocery stores were quite difficult to find nearby.

The room was light and had everything for a comfortable stay. The bed was comfortable. The breakfast was good, fresh croissants it was so amazing. Very friendly and kind staff. The hotel is located 3 minutes from the train station, on a pretty quiet street, many cafes, restaurants, and shops are around, bus stop and a metro are close.

Good location for access to Gare de l'Est. Near restaurants, cafes, tourist sites. Staff were friendly.

Did not have a secure location to store bicycles although there is outside bicycle spots at the train station nearby. Shower was old and in need of renovation. For example, the door was not closing properly.

Central location close to Gare de l'Est and Gare du Nord, and the Canal St Martin with its many food and drink options. No frills hotel, has everything you need for a short stay with friendly staff willing to give plenty of recommendations.

Photos were a bit misleading and made the rooms look bigger than they are.
