This hotel is conveniently located next to two train stations – Gare de Nord and Gare de L'Est. Our small balcony room was very clean and comfortable, and we had all the facilities we could reasonably expect for the price we paid. Staff were helpful while also being unobtrusive. We really appreciated the double-glazed glass doors leading on to our... more

Small room but very nice. Very good service. Good location and good value for money. Highly recommended. more

My wife and I stayed at the Francais Hotel for three nights. The major advantage is its location as it is close to the Est Gare and the metro station. We only spent 7 minutes to walk to the hotel from Nord Gare. We have stayed in a superior double room. The room space is adequate for us (with four... more

We booked two 'superior' rooms via Venere specifically for the location close to the Eurostar. We had mixed feelings on booking after reading reviews here but thought that a 'superior' room would give us a little more comfort. The room was brown. Brown bedspreads; grotty, peeling brown wallpaper; brown carpets, which, at least, was clean enough. But it was the... more

I was unsure about this hotel when I booked it. I choose it based on location to the train stations and price. What a pleasant surprise it turned out to be. It was a nice, clean, and comfortable, with friendly help. It has a nice little bakery across the street, and for my teenage son a McDonald’s right down the... more

I had read some very good reviews of the hotel on Trip Advisor and it sounded much better than most of those around the Gare du Nord. I also chose it because it had a no-smoking policy. Someone in... more

A short 3 block walk from Gare du Nord and across the street from Gare de l' Est... also metro is steps from the front door. Room was very suitable for... more

I booked a double superior room for 6 nights on Venere for 111 Euro. The first room we were given smelled like an ashtray so we asked for another room. Eric, the clerk at the front desk told me they couldn't stop people from smoking. I told him if they enforced their non smoking policy which was posted around the... more

Booked this hotel through Venere.com for about 93Euros/night. We stayed in Paris for 3 nights before at Villa Luxembourg in the Montparnasse area, very nice hotel! we then went to amsterdam and came back for 1 night before flying back home. So we chose something that's closer to Gare du Nord for taking RER B train to the CDG airport.... more
