Lift didn't work, room terrible and smelt of mould, lock on door looked like it had been broken into multiple times, bed soft and springy, night manager surly and unhelpful.....asked for balance to be paid before even looking up from his newspaper. Overall....worst hotel experience i have ever had, surpassing a shocker I had in Ancona 7 years ago. Don't... more

I stayed with a small group on a school trip. The staff were all very helpful and gave good pointers about the surrounding areas. You definatley only pay for what you get.Rooms are basic but clean and comfortable however bathrooms are a squeeze and the showers arent the best. Overall its a great location with multiple metro stations surrounding it,... more

This hotel in inexpensive and it shows. If you only need a bed and shower then this hotel is ok, however, keep in mind the room is very, very basic and small, especially the shower. The sheets and towels were changed daily, but the overall appearance of the hotel is grubby. The bathroom was mouldy, and smelly and the window... more

The neighbourhood is very nice and safe. The subway station is directly outside the hotel. The sheets and towels where very clean. The personal is kind. I'd definitely go back more

After we canceled (but before we'd booked another hotel) we received a strange phone call from a French lady asking to have our credit card details, when... more

This hotel was the worst place that I have every stayed. I booked over the internet and the manager refused to honour the price. He locked us in the hotel, confiscated our belongings, assaulted me and refused to call the police. I would not suggest that anyone should stay here if this is the way that they treat their clients.... more

I booked 1 double room at this hotel via ---- Why I decided to choose this hotel: 1) Good location (next to the metro station, close to Bastilia square, etc) 2) Good rate (EUR 50 per room/night) 3) Soundproofed windows Breakfast is not included but from the previous experience I know how French breakfast looks like and therefore prefer to... more

I've been researching for days on places to stay in Paris and came across Hotel Royal Voltaire online (via parishotels.com). I emailed them about availability and cost and received a great quote. However, there were no Trip Advisor reviews (which I rely on!) so I did a "Google" search... turns out that Hotel Royal Voltaire is the same as Residence... more
