Beautiful place and well worth the trip.

First the good points - brilliant location for Gare de Lyon, literally a 2 minute walk from the station concourse to the hotel door. Our room had clearly been refurbished relatively recently and on the whole looked quite smart. However, a few not so good points. We certainly didn’t get a warm welcome when arriving at the hotel and the guy behind the desk was fairly abrupt. Maybe it’s just a sign of the area, but you have to buzz to ask the front desk to open the front door for you, and the reception desk is then hidden behind glass panels - maybe all this is just a throwback from the pandemic but the overall effect is that you feel you’re arriving at a very budget hotel. The room was tiny, even for Paris. To give an idea, the bathroom was so small it was physically impossible to sit on the toilet and close the door. Breakfast was OK but was nothing special and quite limited. Given the ridiculous prices hotels generally charge in Paris these days this hotel probably wasn’t too overpriced for what you get, and was fine for a quick overnight stay. I wouldn’t want to stay for multiple nights but if you were in Paris for longer you probably wouldn’t be looking to stay around Gare de Lyon area anyway.

Ne prenez pas les chambres au rdc, chambre Pmr. Elles donnent sur la rue, donc bruyante vu l'emplacement et surtout nous entendons le petit déjeuner et les conduites d'eaux des voisins du hauts. Donc prevoir boules Quiess

Tolle Lage ganz nah zum Gare de Lyon - sehr freundliches Personal - sehr gerne wieder

Une meilleure wifi serait bien
