This was the most disgusting place I have ever been! The shower in the middle of our room had such a terrible smell coming out of the drain that we had to sleep with the windows open in December! The bathrooms smell like pee and there is a good chance that the staircase is going to fall off the wall... More

A nice hostel without pretentious. We booked a twin but when we arrived we were given two single (same price). The photos that we think we are on line a few years ago because our rooms were new, newly renovated and painted. Very simple and well located (not far from Bastille). There are no common areas. Immediately below the hostel... More

True there is nothing fancy about this place, but most of these reviews are really freaking out! I have stayed at very nice hotels, and yes I know high end hotel quality, but Hotel Richard is a budget hotel and you pay for what you get! My experience was first, cheap price, good location, remodeled private rooms, shower hot and... More

We stayed there for three nights. We chose this place because of the price and location. As for Paris, other hotels are more expensive. This one was cheap and not far from the very centre. So we knew it would be basic. This wasn't a problem. The bathroom and showers were in a really bad state. They should definitely renovate... More

A friend and I stayed here for a quick 2 night stay in September. Funny little place with rickety stairs and mould on the shower door, but apart from the grubby appearance we found the place clean enough, just very worn. Very basic, white (although actually greyish) double room, with a couple of chairs, table, sink, and mirror. We were... More

We had to trudge up 5 narrow flights of incredibly weak feeling stairs (at one point I thought I would have fallen through and the last time I weighed myself I was 44 kg) should have looked at the room before I paid but that being said, when I got to the room it was the dirtiest looking bed I've...

I would like to warn all potential customers. Do not travel to Hotel Richard, 35, rue Richard Lenoir 75011. When we arrived, they open luggage room for as, to keep our luggages. I wanted to see room, but staff denaid it. They know why. Inside this room was lot of dirts, so staff member cleanded it ahead of us. Room... More

Hotel Richard is a cheap hostel in a decent location. Yes the staff aren't helpful or polite, but neither is anyone else in Paris if you don't speak French (which I don't). The location isn't even the best but it's good enough. Not the cleanest place but again, it's clean enough. All we needed was a place to sleep after... More

okay, so I reached here in the morning, and the guys said somehow my booking was cancelled! I was confused but they said they still had room, so it's going to be fine, and i would have to come back at 4 pm for check in. So I came back at 4, and the receptionist was a middle-age woman who... More
