4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 February 2012 NEW

Have stayed at many Novotels throughout Europe before and this one lives up to their quality/level of service and amenities. Staff was very friendly and helpful during check-in and throughout our stay. They were more than helpful with directions and suggestions for our time in Paris (6 nights). When we booked the hotel (online), I did not realize the distance... More

I stayed here with my 8 year old daughter and a friend and her 8 year old daughter. The rooms were a good size and included a sofa. The hotel staff were friendly and the girls were well catered for, they received a gift when we checked in and all staff were patient whilst they had a go with their... More

I liked the location near Gare de Lyon which gave us the possibility of taking bus, metro and RER for almost all the hot spots. The swimming pool was a hit with my two kids of 1 and 6 years old. The restaurant served very good quality food and we had dinner with the kids there almost every day. Although... More

Best thing about this hotel is its location - right next to GDL main train station. You can access Metro, RER, SNCF, etc all types of train - say hardly 3-4 mins walk from the hotel. Again within 3-5 mins walk, you're right in the heart of GDL main downtown shopping area full of restaurants of all cuisines. Inside hotel... More

It was the second time I went to this hotel. This time, I could get a room with a double sofa for the price of a normal room; which was great as it is really enjoyable (and unusual) to have such a large room in Paris! However, again, I found the bed wasn't very comfortable (I would probably have been... More

the hotel is very good to stay in, clean and the rooms are good sized. the bathroom is small, but it is Paris and the size standards are similar to Midtown Manhattan hotels. The location made this hotel, excellent to go around Paris for us (first time in Paris). The Metro station is close and of course the train station... More

It was our family's first trip to Paris and after hearing horror stories of expensive, teeny-tiny and dingy rooms, our only hope was to have a clean, economical room for the whole family of 4. The Novotel exceeded our expectations and the family room was a good-sized, comfortable home base for our long weekend. The fold out beds for the... More

Very nice and reliable accommodation if you need a Bastille-Bercy district. Reliable in terms of room size and cleanliness and standards of service. Just two minutes from Gare de Lyon railway station, lots of supermarkets and restaurants (many of them are open in the late evening) and so on. Just 10-15 minutes by walk to Place des Vosges and just... More

The location was excellent as the metro was nearby. We could go to the main attractions within 20-30 minutes via the metro. The room was clean and spacious. The bathroom was not very clean though and we could see stains on the side of the bathtub and hair on the bathroom floor when we first checked in. Breakfast was excellent... More
