Location opposite Gare de Lyon, value for money and efficiently run. The wave key system seemed to make it necessary to slam the door when leaving the room. At times this made it quite noisy.

It was very close to Gare de Lyon train station and Restaurants. If you have to wake up early to catch a train leaving from Gare de lyon. Easy access to Bus service as well. I told my Partner who travels a lot he say he would use your facilities if he passes through Paris again and so would I. If I knew there would be no coffee, tea in the room would have brought my own as it is I paid 2 euros and 80 cents for coffee from the front desk. One thing I did not like was the holding back money from your card. Yet other Hotels with the same price do not do that.

Well run hotel with effecient, friendly English speaking staff on reception. Family room is quite spacious for a Paris hotel. Beds were comfortable and room and bathroom were clean with top quality bed linen and towels. Did not try the breakfast as there a lot of places to have breakfast a few steps away from the hotel. The hotel is directly opposite the Gare de Lyon and the n4 Air France bus stop from Charles de Gaulle airport. However, the hotel is in a small, quiet side street just off the huge square. Even though we had a street facing room on the first floor we have a very peaceful nights sleep. Hotel is ten minutes walk from the Batobus stop and within easy walking distance along the embankment to Notre Dame. We were there for the atp Masters and the popb is 10-15 minutes walk away. Ideal hotel for a reasonable price.

Correct hotel. Good location, close to Gare de Lyon and metro but still in a quiet street.We had a recently renovated room which was -for Paris standards-of a reasonable size. Good prive-quality ratio. Check-in is never possible before 14.00, however you can deposit your luggage.

Good location, triple room was spacious. Staff was welcoming and accommodating. Bathroom didn't have a shower curtain, and had a musty smell (probably related). Breakfast was not included.

Very convenient location for seeing Paris, hotel staff very friendly We found it hard to sleep because the walls were extremely thin and we could hear everything from other rooms. Was recently repainted and had a strong paint smell. Very small breakfast. We did not enjoy staying there.

Basic hotel, but provides everything necessary for short stay. Room in very good condition and the size is decent too (so unlike Paris!). Comfortable bed and self-controlled air conditioner. Did not touch breakfast becuase there are plenty of better offers in restaurants nearby. Location is just perfect - steps from Gare de Lyon and literally in front of Metro/RER (exit 1 - bd Diderot) and shuttle to CDG, nevertheless very quite. Free internet worked fine. Bathroom is rather small and doors are not soundproof, but it did not bother me much. For internet you need to log-in everytime you connect (it can't be automatic), but seems it is not the hotel problem.

I liked the location - just across the road from Gare de Lyon. We had reached the hotel around 11:30 am and were expecting to relax for a couple of hours before going on an after-noon tour of Paris. We had taken an early morning Eurostar from London and were dead tired after stuggling to find our way to the hotel from Gare de Nord. The Hotel staff gave us a shock by not granting us an early check-in and asking us to wait till 2:00 pm, the official check-in time. It was a matter of policy they said, not the non-availability of rooms. We had to sit in the lobby and had to proceed on the city tour without check- in. I felt they should have been more cooperative, specially when they had vacant rooms.

Close to Gare de Lyon for a late arrival, and convenient for an early departure the following day. Courteous welcome from night staff.

Very quiet and soft bed sheets = good night sleep. Our base in Paris for the second time and many times to come, as it is perfect if you come up from the South of France or go down to the SoF and only spend little time in Paris in-between flights/trains and must use GdL station (literally 3 minutes walk). Free Wifi makes sense too (do you pay extra for water? No! Then all hotels should offer free wifi, such as palym). Take the bus 20 to go to Grands Magaasins (Galeries Lafayette, Samaritaine, Printemps) & the Opera, come back on bus 20 (until 1am) after the show, and you get two 20-min. Tours of Paris (by day and by night) for €3,80 only! The lift is very small, more for 1 person & luggage. Forget breakfast, have a cafe creme & croissant in one of the adjacent cafes on Blvd Diderot, you get the real Paris atmosphere.

Only 100 meter from Gare de Lyon, calm. I prefer a room to the small raod (not much traffic) where you have some daylight while rooms to the back goes to a dark backyard (noice from aircondition). Some double rooms and bathroom are small but clean - considering the price I would not rate it negative. The staff is always very friendly and helpful. Internet is free and working fine - ask the concierge for the login name/password. Lifts in all Paris hotels are small but you can also do something for your fitness and use the stairs. There are for sure better hotels in Paris but they also cost much more!! For me the location next to Gare de Lyon is great as you can reach every attraction easily with Metro or RER
