Acacias Hotel De Ville

( 2 stars , Paris , France )

1) Excellent location: very close to metro, walking distance to alot of attractions.

All in all, it's not a bad option. But it's certainly not a 3-star place.

Excellent hotel - the main feature was the wonderful staff, all of them! Very helpful, exceedingly nice and everyon made me feel welcome and valued. Nice room, plenty of space for a low cost hotel, comfortable. Very close to everything. I had problems trying to find the best metro station - now I know. Go to the Hotel de Ville metro station, and the hotel is 5 mins away. I will stay there again

5 of us stayed (in a double and a triple). It was an hotel, but great for the price. It is very affordable and in an excellent location. Given that it is a minute walk from the Hotel de Ville and right in the middle of the Marais, I can do with the slightly worn hotel. If you are traveling on a budget, or are young and wanting to be in a great area, this is it. Nothing else in the area is 80 euros a night like this is.

I stayed for one night in April, 06. I stayed in a small room on the top floor, which made for a steep climb up several flights of steps. The room was clean, but QUITE small. The ceiling slanted considerably, and being 5'10, I was unable to walk on one side of the room but had to crouch down. Again, at least my room was clean, but I would not stay again and I am confident there must be better options in the Marais at $115 a night.

I stayed in this hotel for a few days. This hotel is very small, but has everything you need: bathroom, TV, the basics. If you are not planning on spending all day in the hotel, then this is a very good one. The hotel stuff was very nice and helpful. The location is excellent. It is also a quiet street. I would stay there again.

After a month in France I feel infomred enough o evaluate this hotel and compare it to others. $100 doesn't buy much in Paris. In this case it buys a 2-star (slighly funky) hotel in a great location. The locations is incredibly convenient -- just a couple blocks from Notre Dame, a block from Center Pompediu, and on the edge of the fantastic Marais district. The wife loved the shopping. I loved being able to walk almost everywhere. Our family of 4 stayed in a triple. There was pretty good space in the room. The beds were okay (though I'm not a fan of single beds). The bathroom was a bit tight, and we missed a tub. Our room was in front, and somewhat loud -- but you should expect this staying so close in. The desk staff was great (especially the evening guy). Breakfast was better then the usual continental stuff. Having a car proved to tbe the hardest part of staying here -- there wasn't even a spot to stop and unoad the luggage. But there was planty of parking at the Center Pompediu just a couple of blocks away. Overall, I've found 1-stars are really for backpackers who don't mind need a bath in their room. 2-stars give you a bath and a bit of funk -- Super 8 style in North America. 3-star hotels are very nice -- about Marriot and Sheraton standard in North American. 4 stars, which I didn't experience, must be amazing. All in all, if you're not willing to shell out for a 3-star hotel, this is a good 2 star option.

Having been to Paris many times for various reasons and at various times, this hotel could not be in a better location. When travelling alone and not requiring hotel services, it is the hotel location which is important to me, and this hotel could not be better. It is old; stairs, no lift, small shower, but VERY close to rue Rivoli and the Metro at Hotel de Ville (Line 1). I would not recommend this for family stay or an extended visit, but for 3 days it is very reasonably priced and one can endure not having a marble bath!

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean, the location is great - just a few minutes walk from Notre Dame. However, I don't know if it has AC, so you might want to check on that if you're traveling in the summer.

Average/Ok is what I'd call this hotel. Location is very good. I've lived in Paris & choose this area when I go back. The staff were friendly and the room was average, but I've stayed in nicer hotels in the area for about 80,00€ (this was 102,00€ for a double!) The room was small and the place could have done with some modernisation. Nothing was majorly wrong, but for this price I would expect better quality bedding/towels/shower door not to be broken etc. It was fine, but not worth 102,00€.
