Hotel berhampiran La Galerie des Ateliers d'Artistes de Belleville, Paris

Location! Location! Location! This hotel is a short walk from not just metro stations, but multiple bus stops, many restaurants, clothing stores, and grocery shops. During my sadly short stay in Paris I had the privilege of staying at Hotel Verlain and got to meet multiple kind staff members. Our room was facing the street with tall windows that opened up to a small little spot you can sit on the edge of and just watch the day go by. On our first day we noticed a leak from the bathroom sink, and after notifying the front desk they offered to move us rooms or that the plumber could be there the next day. We politely declined the offer to a new room as the new room faced the courtyard instead. The next morning the plumber was in while we were out eating, and it was fixed by the time we got back. For the remainder of our stay we had no further issues. From the comfy bed, to the spacious shower/deep tub combo it was the perfect place for our trip. Hotel Verlain will be at the top of my list when I get to go back to Paris!

Our room at Hotel Hor Les Lumières was small, but convenient. The bed was really comfortable: I slept very well. The bathroom was clean, but not nearly as convenient as the room: I would have preferred a shower in stead of a bath without shower curtain. The only way to take a shower without getting the whole bathroom wet was by sitting down. I do not like showering while sitting down. Also missing in the bathroom: a cloth rack. The breakfast was excellent though. Plenty of options to choose from and they even offered some cooked options, very un-French! Staff was friendly but we did had to wait way too long before we could check-out. And it seemed to be somewhat of a problem when we asked to store our luggage until we would return later that day. The staff member complained that there wasn't enough room to store our luggage. In the end he ended up finding a place for our luggage.

There is something about this hotel that takes you back to times past. Loved the winding staircase, the grafitti on the walls. We stayed in the urban room, which was minimalist, with concrete pipe sections for some of the furniture, street style paintings on the walls, ceiling beams painted red. View from the room was out onto a square which was fascinating to see the various characters throughout the day. very comfortable bed, decent shower room. Breakfast is taken down in the cellar, past more grafitti on the walls, loved it. Breakfast is more in the traditional french style, with bread and croissant served in a basket supplememted by cereal and yogurt. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout. This hotel may not be to everyone's taste, but we loved it. The atmosphere and the location were good. Would visit again.

Me and my friends stayed in this hotel for five nights. We were very pleased with the friendly & customer orientated service, clean rooms, location with many nice bistros near by, close to metro station etc. Breakfast not included but can be bought if wanted. We chose to eat breakfast out as there were plenty of options around.

The hotel is not in the tourist spot areas but staying here is comfortable for a solo travellers. The room is very basic but its clean. If u look for halal food, its just a walking distance. There is a Monoprix store next to the hotel for apparel and groceries needs. The bed is comfy even it is simple. The staff is very helpful. What summarise it as it was above my expectations for a budget hotel.

First things first, there effectively is no Lennon Hotel. There is no reception there and no breakfast room. Everything from the administration on is done through the Avalon Hotel next door so, make the assumption that you are going to the Avalon and you will not get lost or confused. The decor is both dated and modern at the same time. I would say, typically French so I am glad they didn't go all chain hotel and boring. The Bedroom - The choice of furniture I would question. In some pictures you can see what looks like a coat rack. This is the 'wardrobe' in the room. There are 6 hooks which may or may not have 6 hangers. Beneath that could well be a full size laptop safe (free to use) and under that, what I would have used as the shoe shelf. There really isn't anywhere for smaller items at all, they likely will stay in your luggage. With the lighting it's either bright or very bright so, there wasn't really an option to have it dimly lit though there are a selection of ceiling light, wall lamps and table lamps, they are all bright. Our room (100) was not a king size bed, I feel 4' 6” as it was certainly smaller than we are used to. In many pictures it shows the white bed pillows supplemented by small blue (green) ones. This is certainly not the case with every room. The Bathroom - I can but speak for our room as I understand other rooms have different configurations. We had a walk in shower with a rain shower head and a hand held spray adjusted using ornate handles. The toilet was on the wall. I personally don't like those, I feel incredibly unsafe especially when they creak like this one did when sat on. To make it worse, we're only 5' 3” and it's just too high, we felt like 5 year olds in need of a step stall. I wondered if this might not be aimed at wheelchair users as I am disabled but I do not use a chair but a mobility scooter (which there was plenty of room for). Then I consider the sink which is high up, too high for a wheelchair user. Of course, there is no chair in the shower either so, if it is meant to be an accessible room, it kind of isn't. The walls are done in tiles. Very mismatched tiles, not sure whether that was intentional or just years of different repairs and replacements. I feel that the light blue small square tiles were original but that when the shower, toilet and sink were last done they were not replicable so got replaced with blue rectangle tiles. The floor tiles are probably original but very worn and though they may have been, I never felt they were clean. Being a walk in shower the water got everywhere and the floor remained wet all night so we kept a towel on the floor by the door. Us British might find it weird to see a hairdryer in the bathroom right next to the sink, I think a plug socket too! The large round mirror was supposed to light up with a touch switch but, we never got it to work. The water pressure was though very good and combined shower gel/shampoo is provided as are ample towels which are s

Among the few hostels that I stayed this one value for money. The bunk beds are nice with own power outlet and lighting. The only issue is that there is no place to hang clothes or towel. The toilet is clean and it is daily maintain by cleaning staff. There is a common kitchen where you can cook, make hot drinks and all the pans and cookery you require to cook a simple meal. Like all other hostels, it’s the guests that mess it up and it’s no surprise that the kitchen wasn’t clean after using the stove while other hostels has wet and messy shared bathrooms. Apart from that minor issue this hostel is highly recommended. All bookings done online are maintained and records are all there when checking in and out. Very central location with short walks to train stations and attractions. Notre Dame cathedral is just 10mins walk away. This is a “must” book hostel for your next visit to Paris.

My husband and I stayed in a Superior Double Room for two days at the beginning of March. We had a wonderful view of the park and the Eiffel Tower. The room is beautiful to look at, but a little damaged in some parts (for example the shower). The biggest problem of the room was the ventilation system, as it smelled of the drain several times. The cleaner does her job, as she cleans the room daily, but the problem is exclusively ventilation. I might also point out that you can hear the chairs being moved in the bar in the room. I would also suggest that a different choice of breakfast be made every day, as it was the same breakfast twice. However, I would like to conclude by praising the staff, who were friendly at all times.

Great deal in Paris! I could not find a better hotel in Paris for the price I paid. I highly recommend this hotel to solo travellers who want a single room and don't mind cutting their budget by staying in a less luxurious hotel. The hotel and the surrounding area give me a great first impression of Paris. - The location is very convenient, you can find coffee shops, carrefour (right in front of the hotel), and shops nearby. The nearby metro stations are the intersection of multiple metro lines, making it very easy to travel around Paris. The nearby train terminal is the destination of several train lines to the surrounding cities, including Versailles. - The room size is decent for solo travellers. The only part I want to comment on is the bathroom and shower place are a bit small. - The cleanliness is ok, just the interior is a bit old. - The front desk is very friendly and helpful. They gave me very good first impression of Paris. - I feel safe walking alone in the surrounding area.

Very good room, just as in the description. Good shuttle service to the airport.
