I have stayed in this hotel several times over the last 15 years. One year I tried to find somewhere else for a similar price and location - impossible. I ended up with somewhere slightly more expensive without the location. This latest visit we got a double bed room with private bathroom for about £65 (GB£) a night - friday... more

Apart from one english speaking guy behind the desk, all of the desk staff were arrogant and very unhelpful. They forget that the "F" word means the same in english as it does on french. The bathrooms were disgusting and the mould on the walls should pay the nightly fee as it seems it has taken residency! This was my... more

Very very noisy, plumbing designed to wake you up throughout the night if anyone uses the toilet, no air-conditioning at all so windows must be opened in order to breathe. Local very noisy bar open till early hours so prepare yourself for a minimum 3am potential head down unless you're a very very heavy sleeper. No sound proofing and with... more

I stayed here for 4 nights in a room with 2 bunk beds (4 people) and bathroom ensuite. The bathroom was pretty nice, and the room was small but fine. Staff spoke good English when I couldn't figure out what I wanted to say in French and were pretty helpful although I really didn't need their help very much since... more

I have had good experiences in the past with clean, welcoming hostels but this was not the case in Caulaincourt Square. I booked a double, which turned out to be a twin, it was damp, paper peeling from the walls, horrible, horrible smell in the room and twice came out of the room to find some one had vomited in... more

I really can't believe all of the positive reviews I've been reading about this hostel. I have stayed at hostels all over Europe and North America, and I had by far my worst hostel experience ever at Calincourt last week. When I walked into the building, everything looked great. The decorations aren't bad and the ambiance was ok. The halls... more

Reasonable prices for a fantastic hostel based in a great location in Paris. Easy to find and easy to get to and from. Bathroom small but brand new and very clean. Double room was of a good size and we had clean sheets and towels everyday of our stay. Inclusive breakfast is pretty standard but worth trying. Free internet access... more

we stayed here for two nights and to be honest I could not wait to get away. There is no air con and it has been boiling in paris and whilst I dont mind being in a mixed dorm we were practically on top of one another and the heat was stifling. The breqkfast was terrible too. if you like... more

This was an excellent hostile. They were very friendly and nice. The rooms weren't 5 star hotels but what did you expect from a hostile. It's a great place to sleep and meet new people in the lobby area. The bed were comfy and the bathroom was good. Only 25 euro per person and included a delicious big breakfast. All... more
