What is the experience of a five-star hotel without heating on a day of 10 degrees to 8 degrees? It really happened to me, and it was a Sofitel. Anyway, I caught a cold directly on the second day after staying, and the windows were closed tightly. The equipment Everything else is nonsense. I complained to the front desk the next day. Anyway, the attitude was very sincere, but the problem had occurred and the facilities were very backward. The front desk service was very enthusiastic and communicated with me from the perspective of the guest. Anyway, it is a five-star hotel in Paris. It's really hard to describe

Paris|2.56km from city centre
We chose this hotel for its excellent location and spacious rooms, and we were very satisfied with our stay. The hotel offers great connectivity for attending trade shows, and interesting neighborhoods like Marais and Canal Saint Martin are just a 15-minute walk away. The uniquely decorated room had a cozy atmosphere, though the open bathroom layout might be inconvenient for those seeking privacy. I requested a kettle for boiling water and slippers, which were provided promptly. A charming feature is the collection of humorous messages designed as a mini book to hang when leaving your room. The breakfast was excellent, and the hotel also has the renowned restaurant Neni, which we loved from our time in Vienna. We initially faced an issue with being charged double for taxes, but after communicating with the manager, we received a refund. The hotel has a good feedback system, allowing you to reach out to the GM if you're not satisfied. While the prices are slightly above average, the positive aspects of our stay made it enjoyable overall.

Location: if you need a hotel not far from Gare du NOrd but do not want to be located there, gare de l'est is the second best option (only 10 minutes walk). For business travel, it does the tricks perfectly. Also, what a view from this room (see pictures of the Eiffel Tower and Sacré Coeur). Cleanliness: while the hotel rooms are getting a bit old and you can see it, cleanliness was perfect. Service: good, nothing much to share. Smiling greeting, quick check out. Facilities: bit minimalistic, but the desk to work on was perfect and provided really a lot of space. Again, for business travel it is a game changer.

Stayed here in May 2025. The hotel is just a 3-minute walk from Gare du Nord, which made it super convenient for train travel. The room was small but clean and well-equipped—with a comfy bed, kettle, tea, water, and a safe. Bathroom was modern, with good water pressure and a strong hairdryer. Our room faced the inner courtyard, so it was very quiet. Staff were friendly and spoke good English. Check-in was fast and smooth. We didn’t try the breakfast but the dining area looked nice. Lots of shops and food options nearby, and metro access is excellent for getting around Paris. Overall, a great value stay if you want somewhere clean, quiet, and convenient.

Stayed two nights. It was total disaster. Elevator was not working. Had to walk tiny stairs every time. No bottled water offered, just a glass bottle water hotel filled. Reception was a mess too. Charged different amount everytime. Incidentials, city tax, every person in reception says differently. I had to ask a partial refund for wrongfully charged city tax. Location is great, but I cannot recommend this hotel.

The hotel room was relatively clean, but the bathroom space was a bit limited, and there was bad smell every time I flushed the toilet. Overall, it was quite comfortable. Housekeeping staff came to tidy the room every day. The breakfast options were somewhat limited, but it was sufficient for a morning meal. The hotel is just a 2-minute walk from the metro which is very convenient.

Good location near the Gare de Lyon train station. Room size is sufficient for two people. Kettle is provided and drinks in the fridge are free for consumption. There is bathtub in the toilet. Housekeeping services are still acceptable, however I placed some empty bottles meant for keepsake purposes on the table but it was gone when I returned to the room at the end of the day. Front desk staff is friendly and helpful. Overall the stay was enjoyable.

The room is really clean and nice but a little small, if you need the cleaning each day just need to mention that. the location is great just 4 minutes walk to champs Elyse, also one minute walk to metro station line 9, you can buy the t+ tickets and use the metro then if you want to go the outside the Paris like Versailles by the RER line which you need to buy another ticket. The breakfast was good, we didn’t book the room with breakfast but one day during the stay there we try to eat breakfast and pay 25 euros per each person. The room has one bottle of water for free. Also inside the room includes kettle, some coffee and tea. It makes a good staying in the Paris 👌
