Definitely not special on the outside, old lobby but full of character on the inside, a modern small elevator, a large holding area for your luggage and a clean room. Staff are helpful but don't expect them to overextend themselves. They are constantly busy, answering questions, assisting bus groups to check in, sorting out breakfasts. My family of 4 stayed...

This hotel has become my home-away-from-home whenever my partner and I visit Paris. The hotel is old and some aspects are truly quirky, but it has character and along friendly, helpful staff. Although many part of the hotel are truly worn, everything is reasonably clean. Over the some 15 plus years that I have stayed here I have noted that... More

Years ago we purchased round-trip tickets to Paris not knowing that the time frame was during the Spring fashion shows when all (or most) hotels were fully booked. After considerable searching, we found the Hotel Bellevue et du Chariot d'Or on rue Turbigo, and we have been staying there ever since. That was about 17 years ago, and we have... More

Good location for vegetarians. The hotel is located near 2 supermarkets and a health food coop serving a hot lunch M-F. 2 japanese and 1 chinese restaurants are very close by. Don't be put off by the facade. I think it is supposed to be faux-ancien. This building was built in 1860. Elevator works well. My husband said it needs... More

Clearly non Americans have a better time at this hotel as our standards for cleanliness and service are quite high. The service here was truly poor. This hotel has abandoned all interest in providing lovely stays for their guests, as they are just concerned about collecting their money. We left the hotel quickly.

If you travel under budget and look for basic but comfortable accomodation in a convenient locaton, look no elsewhere. Bonus: lift, new spacious bathroom with hair dryer.

My boyfriend and I stayed here for 5 days, and had a great experience. The location is amazing with tons of restaurants and shops within walking distance, and central Paris a 10 minute walk (or 2-3 metro stops). The hotel hallways and corridors are shabby, but our room was quite comfortable and clean. We were on the 6th floor, and... More

You cannot beat the Location or Price. The remaining suffers. I totally agree with RMHSRM. The staff simply does not care about you or their jobs. We had questions and couldn't get them answered. Nor, was there anyone available in a position of authority to respond to us. Fortunately, we found a concierge at a nearby hotel who did an... More

This two star hotel has been our favorite for years. The place is nothing special in terms of amenities and furnishings, but the beds are good and the staff is wonderful. You can feel well taken care of at this place. The loacation in the 2nd Arronsidment is very convenient both for the Metro and for walking with plenty of... More
