This hotel offers a cheap stay within the center ring of Paris. There is a metro nearby, making you very mobile. There is also a paid parking nearby. I think it beats a hostal, but that more or less says it all. In my case the rooms were clean. The view of the room was ok. I spent 80 euros... more

Background: my wife and I had wound up (thanks to a grossly misleading New York Times article) in a total dump (elsewhere review by me on this site) that we fled from after one terrible night. Happily we found the Alhambra and while we paid a bit more (something like 100 euros/night for a large room (normally for three) --... more

My familiy travels about 4 times per year and we usually stay at 2-3 star hotel. But I most say that the manager at this hotel is the most unpleasent person I meet in a long time. He screams at you and called our kids nasty things. Wouldnt recommend this hotel to ANYONE!! more

Hotel is right next to Oberkampf metro station, in a quiet sidestreet, so within easy reach of all main attractions. Room was clean though fairly small. Staff were friendly and helpful. Typical French breakfast i.e. pretty basic. Had a PC in lobby area which gave free (slowish) internet access. more

My latest stay in this hotel was in May 2008, but since 1999, I have been a regular guest at the Alhambra. From spring to late autumn, you can enjoy breakfast in their spacious patio amidst all kinds of plants and flowers. And believe me, for a small Parisian hotel like the Alhambra, this is quite exceptional ! The rooms... more

very friendly staff, our room was a twin which was small but very clean - there was no room between the beds and the pillow was kind of non existent, but adequate if you are only staying a couple of days. Very close to the metro station, which is only 4 short stops from the Gare de nord, so perfect... more

Monica Pepine, Bucharest, Romania Have been to Alhambra 10 days ago and everything was beyond my expectations. I was travelling with my husband and my 8-years-old daughter so we stayed in a triple room (with 3 nice and very comfortable beds), with view on a charming little street and it was just perfect. Very clean - in fact the cleaning... more

Despite the mixed reviews we decided to take a chance on the Alhambra and wasn't disappointed. Staff were friendly, the rooms were clean and breakfast was fresh. If you are looking for more than a continental breakfast perhaps you should eat elsewhere though. The weather was extremely cold and wet for most of our stay but the heater kept the... more
