    Was difficult to gain entry to our room as it was a different entrance to the main lobby and we had to go to the main lobby most times for them to open the door to our entrance which was inconvenient. The Wi-Fi didn’t work in our room. The air con couldn’t be operated from our room and it was hot at night

    Location very convenient. Very clean room and great shower

    As it was a hot night we had to open our window to sleep, next morning we were both covered in mosquito bites. Not the properties fault I know but just to warn others. Water was pooled on the roof/ balcony outside the window

    Location near go St Lazare station. Comfortable for one night stay

    The main issue for me, staying in June, was how hot the room was. It was absolutely roasting in there and the window would not stay open - plus the noise from the meant you couldn't keep the window open even with the makeshift way of doing it. It was a very expensive stay in Paris, but I know it is consistent with the market rates.

    The main benefit of this hotel is the incredible location. it is right next to the train station which is well connected, and it is also walking distance to attractions. The room was clean and the staff helpful.

    There were several issues that made my stay quite unpleasant. The room was extremely small, which made it uncomfortable to move around. Additionally, there was no fridge, which is a basic amenity that should be provided. The room was situated inside the building, and there was a strong smell of cooking food that permeated the space, making it quite unpleasant. The windows could not be opened, which exacerbated the issue. The staff were generally okay, but one staff member in particular was very unfriendly. He caused a lot of trouble when my friends tried to visit me at night. He complained that they would be sleeping there, even though I assured him they were just visiting and would leave. This made the situation very complicated and stressful.

    Unfortunately, there wasn't much to like about the property. The location in Paris was convenient, but that was about the extent of the positives.

    The room was small but that was not a problem for us, the bathroom was clean. The location was perfect and we were on the 5th floor, so we had a great view with a balcony and not just a window (like the pics). I suggest to the hotel to install safes in the rooms so that customers feel more secure with their personal items.

    I don’t think there was anything I disliked about the property

    It was nice and had a fair bit of space, plus the shower was really nice. They also had an elevator although it was a small on and if you have a large suitcase it will only fit you and the suitcase, so be aware when booking, but the staff is nice and accommodating, and the rooms were really neat and tidy.

    Pictures look nothing like the hotel and felt a bit disappointed. We also needed staff to help us get in and out of our hotel due to the door being stuck. Also being woken up every morning at 8 cause they’re restocking the coffee station.

    Location was great and staff lovely.

    The room was small and there was not enough space to put things, in my room there was a hanger but the closet was too narrow. There was only one plug socket in the room. The room was a bit cold in November.

    The location was great. The room was clean. The staff were friendly and helpful. The bed was comfortable. Overall good in terms of price/performance.

    Well - all the other reviews here are more or less correct. But this is what you get in Paris for 100 Euros during the Olympic Games. For me - it was okay for 1 night. If you want more, it will be (way) more expensive. You get what you pay, very simple.

    I was waiting for a train (next day). Train Nomad departs from Gare Saint-Lazare. 2 minutes walking distance, just perfect. The breakfast was a surprise. Next door with beautiful live music.

    It was a little noisy, being so close to the station.

    The location is brilliant, right near the metro and overground train station. The air conditioner was awesome. They let me check in early before I headed out to watch an Olympic event 🥰 Great blinds on the windows, nice hot shower.
