This was a very comfortable and easy hotel to stay in. I enjoyed its location, only 20 minutes from central Paris via metro (there's a convenient metro stop right outside the door), and also in a real neighborhood. I enjoyed observing Parisian life around the hotel as much as an tourist attraction. There is a fabulous patisserie across the street... More

Went to Paris with my boyfriend for a mini-break. Booked this little boutique hotel, it was 2 mins for the metro stop. Was approximately a 20min trip into the centre and we were on the right side of Paris to go to Disneyland. The hotel itself was lovely, quite small but I believe this is typical here. The room was...

I can't wait to stay at this hotel again. 3 student friends stayed here last July for 3 nights. Rooms very clean, slightly small because we had a twin room with an extra bed. Staff were so friendly and helpful. Bathroom was clean. Decor was lovely, made the stay so much more enjoyable - we could look forward to getting... More

Thank you! We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay. Our area is really lovely but there is so much to see in Paris that you can't do it all. It is wonderful to read all the comments about the decoration. It has just come together over the last eleven years with a bit of my mother in laws... More

I should have submitted this review much earlier but better late than never. I spent a lot of time choosing hotels in Paris before deciding on this one. It turned out to be an excellent choice indeed, even more so when the metro exit is literally steps from the hotel's entrance. It is located in a very agreeable neighbourhood -... More

I would just like to say how much it means to us when people take the time to write a review like this one. We work so hard at the hotel but there is so much to do and without reviews to let us know what is important I'm sure we would get it all wrong! Please know that we... More

What a find !! I was already excited when I discovered this hotel and booked it, but I was really one of the best hotel I have ever came across. I absolutely adore the classical decore, which is getting more and more difficult to find. It's not at all like off-putting "bourgeois" style like Ritz, but just the right amout... More

Nice little hotel just on the outskirts of Paris. Not the nicest part of Paris but most certainly not the worst..... not but a long shot!! Right at the metro station so it makes it easy to get around. The receptionists are all so super nice and friendly, willing to offer any advice you need. There is also a very... More

Thank you. I'm so happy that the staff were so friendly with you. It is so important when you visit a different country to have some one nice greet you. It can make or brake a vacation. I'm very proud of our staff when I read all these wonderful comments. As for the elevators, we are working on a project... More

I booked this hotel based on the previouse reviews. Our room was on the second floor and wasn't huge but I found it adequate. Lovely period furniture, lovely french windows overlooking the street, bathroom compact but clean and well decorated (corner shower no bath). No problem with water temp, had a lovely shower each morning. I loved it. For the... More

We are so happy to see that you had a nice stay with us. We find the beds to be the most important part of a hotel so we are always trying to find ways to improve them. We just added mattress covers and they are so comfortable! Take care! More

The reviews were great, so I was really excited to be staying here. Unfortunately, I was immediately disappointed. We booked the superior double room, which according to the website, is more spacious. The picture of this room category on the website was very misleading, as our room was much, much smaller than the picture! The bed, however, was very comfortable... More

I'm so very sorry that you did not seem to have as nice as a stay as most of the people who leave us reviews. I know it is not possible to please everyone but know that we try. For future info, all of the hotel rooms in our hotel are different. That is the charm in these old buildings.... More

We had such a nice stay, and I'm hesitant even to say I had such a nice time at Hotel de la Porte Doree because I want it all to myself!

As a surprise gift from my boyfriend for Christmas, my trip to Paris was already steeped in mystery. After a very long journey our ascension from Porte Doree station was welcomed with the pleasant surprise of our hotel directly in front of the number two exit.
