We spent one night here and the room was clean, if spartan. There was very little room to manoeuvre round the bed. The stairs to the room were narrow and quite steep so if you have mobility problems make sure you alert the staff as our room (8)would have been hopeless. Free wireless was a bonus, although sadly there were... More

The hotel is well located close to Metro stops and the Bastille but it is on a quiet street consequently the room was quiet. The staff were very friendly spoke English very well and were very helpful. The room was exceptionally clean and it was a delight to return to after a day out. I would certainly use this hotel...

If all I have is one word the explain our stay at Bastille de Launay that word would be Excellent. People make places and this hotel is full of them, Michele, Olivier, Christalle, Pablo, Flora and Manual. They are all multilingual, friendly and extremely helpful. No request was too hard and, if you have time to chat, they are full... More

My friend and I stayed at the Bastille de Launay Hotel for four nights in April 2013, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a small, boutique-type of hotel which is very good value for money. The hotel is very clean, with small but comfortable rooms and good sized, nicely furbished bathrooms. The staff were all excellent, very... More

This hotel does exactly what it says on the tin - it is clean and simple with nice little touches like flatscreen TV, 24 hr room service and a minibar. Yes, the rooms are small but who plans to stay in your room for long when you are in Paris for the weekend - and the beds were super comfortable... More

A good place to stay as a tourist for a few nights. Room clean, comfortable and (for Paris) fair-sized. We overlooked the street, but double glazing kept noise right down - even of pneumatic drills in the morning. Flat screen TV looked impressive - although we never turned it on. Helpful staff. Free Wi-Fi and free use of computer in... More

First off, I was satisfied with my stay here, but I will not be back. The rooms reflect the price; yes, they are small, but this is Paris folks. It really is a pretty good location, though currently construction on the street makes sleeping in a chore. The place is clean, and there is always staff present to assist you,... More

A very good base for exploring the Marais. We have enjoyed all our stays here and would recommend - especially for the value even though the rooms are somewhat small. Very welcoming staff with lots of advice.

Launay is located several blocks away from any action......isolated on a backstreet near the Bastille. It has had a recent facelift (Do It Yourself?) remodel. The rooms are small but clean. The showers are criminally small, if you are of any size you will have trouble entering/exiting the shower and may scald yourself if you dare to turn around in... More
