Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay overall. The hotel is beautifully designed, clean, and easy to navigate. The room I stayed in was cozy and well-equipped with a nice bed, TV, and air conditioning, although it felt a bit outdated for the price paid.
Despite the rooms being painted in an awful shade of orange on the 4th floor, the hotel offers tea and coffee in the rooms, which is a nice touch. While it can get a little noisy from the street on Saturday nights, don't let that deter you from booking. The service is top-notch with always happy and helpful staff. The location is great for accessing Gare de Lyon and other nearby attractions. The dining experience is decent, but could use some improvement in variety and availability. Overall, a good value for the money.
I stayed at The Alexandrie and had a cozy, albeit small room. It could get a bit noisy due to the street sounds, which is common in Paris. Overall, the room was small but comfortable.
The hotel rooms were clean, cozy, and comfortable. However, there were noise disturbances like construction works and late-night music, making it hard to get a good night's sleep. The staff was lovely and made jokes about our accents, creating a friendly atmosphere. The location was perfect, near major train stations and tourist attractions, but some may find it a bit far from the main sights. The dining experience was a standout with excellent choices and freshly prepared items, although some may consider it overpriced. Overall, a great stay with minor noise inconveniences and pricing concerns.
The hotel offers a great location between Gare de Lyon and Bastille, with affordable dining options nearby and more upscale choices a short walk away in Marais. The rooms are impeccably clean with an interesting color scheme, cozy by Parisian standards yet exceptionally comfortable for two people. Additionally, the rooms are spacious enough to accommodate a family of five comfortably.
I had a lovely time during my stay at the hotel. The room was cozy per Parisian standards but very comfortable, perfect for a weekend in the city. The service was kind and helpful, and the location was excellent for exploring Paris. The dining experience offered a good selection, but there were some limitations. Overall, a great value for money option.
