Garden Saint Martin

This is a 2 stars well-located hotel in Paris. You could have helpful information depending on who was at the reception desk. Maintenance was poor; the opening system of the sink in my room was broken and the bedside lamp was not working. I asked if they could fix them on my first day at the hotel, and nothing was done, which annoyed me. It was overpriced - it cost more than several 3 stars hotels nearby.

Un pequeño hotel con una excelente ubicación en un bonito barrio. De fácil acceso desde la Gare du Nord. La habitación que teníamos era muy pequeña, pero suficiente para el propósito: lienzos de París. El ascensor es una sensación. El personal super comprensivo y amable.

THIS HOTEL IS A DEATH TRAP RUN BY MAN BABIES. Coming on a year from visiting Paris, I’m reminded I must warn people about staying here. All the men who work here are thin-skinned and disgruntled. But first the death trap part: coming home late from dinner & drinks, several nights a week we found the entrance chained and locked! After ringing the doorbell many times, the manager would wake up from their slumber and begrudgingly unlock the front door. When we said this is a safety issue, we were told THIS is a safety precaution to keep drunks out. Okay…why not invest in a key card door (like all other hotels we stayed at)? We were reassured someone would open them if called. WELL…on our second to last night there, coming home relatively earlier in the night, the door wouldn’t open! The **** even tried to blame my friend for breaking it when all she did was try to walk forward into the glass. And yes, I know, it’s glass. In case of emergency just…But if there’s a fire, and smoke is everywhere, that may not be so easy. Also, possibly because we had a big party with special needs, all the managers treated us like we were a nuisance. Before going out one night, the manager asked, “When are you leaving?” I said, “In a couple of days.” He replied, “Good” as he walked away. Ooooo!…If I wasn’t worried about making sure our whole group wasn’t kicked out for no good reason…I would have taken him outside to have a more real conversation. (Wow I had to really restrain myself for the good of the group.) I could go on and on about incidents we had: raising there voice when members of our group dared to raise an issue, denying our eldest (and kindest) members coffee on the morning we checked out, the baldest of these middle aged babies hitting on a friend of a friend’s wife, in front of her husband(!), et cetera. Pity though. The balcony view down the street towards the canal is LOVELY. And the restaurants (and world famous bakery) outside have delicious food served by real friendly people. Still, BEWARE.

Arrived at this hotel for a late check in at 11pm. I had contacted the hotel to let them know we would be late. On checking in we were allocated our triple room. To say I was disappointed in the room is an understatement. It was shabby, dull , tired and the door outside which was a fire escape was blocked by clutter! I went back to the night manager to say I was very unhappy with our room which looked absolutely nothing like the pictures on the website. He insisted there was nothing else available even telling us we could go somewhere else if we weren’t happy !! At after 11pm at night this wasn’t an option. Eventually after lots of argument he reluctantly gave us another room which was marginally better. I would not recommend this hotel basically because the pictures on the website are so misleading. Our room was shabby and disappointing. The bathroom was small with a tiny shower enclosed by a dirty looking shower curtain. It was a nice location but we definitely wouldn’t stay here again nor recommend

Situated in a great area of Paris, Place de la Republique is this small tourist hotel. Rooms are very small and does not look like they do in the pictures. Easy to get to by several Metro lines. The area is nice and you can also access all major sights on foot. It’s not close to the Eiffel Tower or Arc de Triomphe but still great. What kept this hotel from a higher rating is the rooms and description of the hotel. This was my 14th trip to Paris and I must say that this area was one of the most enjoyable ones to stay at close to Saint Denis.

This is not a luxury hotel by any means. Typical European rooms – very small, few amenities but very clean. The good thing is that when visiting Europe, you shouldn’t be spending a lot of time in your room anyway! The locality of the hotel is very good. Seems like a safe location and within walking distance to the metro station and many cafes and restaurants. The best part of our stay here was the staff. They were incredibly friendly and helpful to us. We had an unfortunate incident with my husband’s wallet being stolen on the metro from the airport. By the time we got to the hotel, we saw a $3500 charge on our VISA. We went down to the front desk and the gentleman was so very helpful! He placed the call for us and waited until we had everything settled. Later in the week we needed help with train tickets another gentleman patiently assisted us and printed out all of our tickets for us. We definitely enjoyed our stay here.

Hotel situato nel 10 quartiere di Parigi. Premesso che è un due stelle, se considerato come tale è una validissima opzione per visitare Parigi senza però dover spendere un capitale. Metro attaccata all’hotel, insieme a ristoranti di ogni tipo, supermercato e boulangerie tipiche. Le camere sono strette (si faceva fatica) così come il bagno, però per un turista (che probabilmente sta in hotel solo per dormire) va benissimo. Ripeto, va considerato come un due stelle in quanto comunque abbiamo trovato lenzuola leggermente macchiate, venivano cambiate ogni tre giorni. Personale super caloroso e simpaticissimo. Refill di bottigliette d’acqua gratuito
