Garden Hotel

( 2 stars , Paris , France )

Good hotel if you are looking for a cheap option in a good area. Close to the Bastilla Square and food stores. The good thing about it is that I paid the very same amount I would pay for a hostal with 14 beds -- and in this hotel I could stay with my friends only.

We stayed 3 nights, 3 of our family in one room and 2 in another. The staff was friendly and spoke English well. The hotel is in a quiet area, a few blocks from a metro station. The rooms were small, with just enough space around the beds to get around, and the bathrooms are tiny but clean. The breakfast was 3 euros each, simple baguettes, coffee, hot chocolate and juice, but served to us nicely. Note: it took us awhile to find the breakfast, which is in a separate entrance around the corner from the hotel. I'd stay here again.

Nice hotel, in a good location. Very simple, but clean rooms. We arrived at night and the staff wasn't overly welcoming but the daytime staff were much nicer.

Anyone who has given this hotel poor feedback has very high expectations from a 2 star hotel. We thoroughly recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to see Paris without the high costs. Metro is nearby. Staff were excellent. Room had an ensuite, TV and a great view. Definitely value for money if you don't want to spend all your time in a hotel room. Which you shouldn't. You're in Paris.
