The single room was decently sized compared to other Paris hotels and was modern as well. Was right in front of the train station and shops. Nice croissants at breakfast.

The staff were very friendly and accommodating. I had a late check in and I could leave my ski equipment in their storage until my train the next day. I felt safe leaving my luggage.

Helene United States of America

Friendly and knowable guy at check in. Was able to help us with questions

Patricia United States of America

super close to Gare Lyon we were able to walk in 5 mins with our luggage. Quiet room, great location, quick check in, front desk helped with booking a taxi to airport. Definitely recommend this hotel for overnight stay in Paris.

Doreen United States of America

Location across Gare de Lyon Main Train station very easy in and out to explore the City. Hotel was very clean and nice. A bit small, but that's normal in Europe

Fernando Puerto Rico

Nice room in a good location. Staff were helpful. Pretty much what to expect from a no frills, average cost room.

Jon United States of America

Everything was good and met the expectations. Would recommend families. The location is the best.

Mir United Arab Emirates

Great location. We needed a hotel within a short walking distance from the station and this was perfect. The hotel was clean, comfort and met our expectations.
