Castex Hotel

Petit hôtel tranquille dans le quartier Bastille offrant le service de bagagerie. Accueil aimable et souriant. Chambre et salle de bain propres avec renouvellement du linge de toilette. Restaurants agréables alentours. Métro à proximité.

Quiet elevator is a plus.

The outside of the hotel belies the incredible features of the property inside. Having said that our room was tired and the curtains were hanging off. This is easily fixed and makes a difference when you walk into a bedroom. Simple continental breakfast, not enough plugs in the room. USB sockets but didn't work. Didn't use the tea/coffee making facilities because cups provided are small carboard instead of proper crockery. Welcoming bottle of wine is a nice touch. Location is brilliant, the area is safe and there are so many bars and restaurants to choose from. Very quiet at night. We used the Metro all the time, cheap and easy to navigate. Staff at the ticket offices are very helpful if you need help. Despite the negatives, would consider staying here again, and hope for a better bedroom.

The huge amounts of water left on floor due to shower is a bit puzzling and could have been an issue for slipping. The WiFi service was terrible in the room. Outside of those two things the place was quaint and close to bus and train terminals to make it easy to get around. The close proximity to restaurants was an added bonus.

Hotel com ótimo custo benefício, bem localizado e com boas instalações para região. Único ponto a melhorar seria o chuveiro com pouca vazão e com box parcial, o que acabava molhando todo o chão do banheiro. Em todo caso, ótimo custo benefício e voltaríamos a nos hospedar lá!

Hoteller ligger et rigtig fint sted, hvis man skal ud og se Paris. Personalet var søde og hjælpsomme. Værelset var småt men helt ok. Hverken elevator eller wifi virkede og kom heller ikke til det under opholdet, så der var langt til 4. sal med bagage mv. Under vinduet var der fyldt med mug/svamp på et ret stort område ligesom der var begyndende svamp på badeværelset, hvilket er årsag til lav score på rengøring. Billederne på hotels.com må stamme fra et andet sted, da det ikke havde den charme og hygge, som er på billedet. Morgenmaden var ok.

On the days we stayed at this hotel the wifi was down. Staff told us they will have tech repair tomorrow. Then the next day we asked again, the pushed to the following day. During our stay the wifi never worked, quite disappointed.

Excellent location. Air conditioning. We never went to the breakfast. Rooms are small. Bathrooms are small but upgraded and clean. Beds good.

バスチーユ駅から近いため、便利でした。ホテルの設備は少し古いですが、私たちには十分なものでした。冷蔵庫が冷えないので、使いたい方は注意してください。とても良い滞在でした。

The hotel is older but looks newly renovated in the last several years. Rooms are decent, but each one is different. The first room we got was ok ... lock did not work and the shower setup caused water to get on the bathroom floor. We were given a different room (just across from our 1st room) the next night, and it everything was better. Cleanliness was great, staff was friendly and location was good for us (we walked to Notre Dame, metro station was 200 meters away, restaurants withing walking distance).

Room was clean. Reception was great they had excellent suggestions for dining and arranged my taxi service reservation for my trip home. Fabulous French breakfast. Will absolutely stay again.

Die Lage des Hotels war sehr gut. Die Einrichtung sowie das Badezimmer waren in Ordnung, jedoch etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Die Betten waren durchgelegen und im Bad wie auch im Kühlschrank gab es Schimmel. Der Kühlschrank war dadurch nicht nutzbar. Das Zimmer wurde täglich gereinigt - ein großes Plus.

Horrible dirty place.

The staff was friendly, however the hotel definitely needs to be cleaned. Housekeeping never gave us new bedding, they just re-made the bed using the old sheets during our 5 night stay. Hotel is not at all like the pictures.

Viejo y sucio, habitaciones llenas de polvo, solo limpian por encima.

Very clean and excellent service from all staff

Mycket välstädat rum. Personalen var mycket trevliga och hjälpsamma.

There was Mold in the shower and we found a hair in our bed. We had reserved 3 nights and only stayed one because we just couldn’t take it. We checked and they didn’t give a percentage/refund for the other nights. Very unhapppy with expedia too.

very small rooms very dirty staff was good. We booked for 3 people and u can even put your luggage inside. I will never ever recommend

Der var gamle hår rundt i hele kanten på sengeranden. Derudover var der også hård under madrassen. Selve placeringen af hotellet er fantastisk og en klar anbefaling på området.

Spacious clean well-appointed room in convenient location. Wifi was poor - intermittent at best.

Castex Hotel old building typical of Europe, small rooms,etc. While the property could use an update, it is very clean, beds comfortable , staff is friendly and helpful. The location was fantastic! Metros with multiple lines, lots of restaurants, bakeries and major tourist attractions that are easily walkable. I would stay here again.

Nice location, helpful front desk staff. I was surprised how tiny the room was.

Room was comfortable and the location was good.

Room was clean. In a nice location. Workers very lovely. This hotel is very very small. Everything about it was tight. If clients come with an easy going group. and doesn't mind the size. It's nice.

Castex was very nice. The rooms are incredibly small. The staff were awesome, Very nice; very helpful.

Great location, quiet room on the top floor. Not large, but you don't come to Paris to spend time in your hotel. Staff were friendly, breakfast was convenient, if simple. The complimentary wine was a welcome touch!

Very small rooms. Some idiosyncrasies (such as maximum of two in the very slow elevator and limited breakfast options) that led to a very ho hum experience. Staff was pleasant and tried to be helpful. If you just need a cubby hole to sleep, and don’t anticipate much time in the room (which is how we approached it, then it’s fine. But don’t expect any concierge type assistance, or much else, for that matter.

Cute and quirky Hotel in great location . clean and everything i needed was there . Staff lovely and efficient wi -fi a bit intermittent in room and a coat hook inside room door would have been handy for my raincoat . I would stay again .

Great location, small room

Room was clean. Reception was great they had excellent suggestions for dining and arranged my taxi service reservation for my trip home. Fabulous French breakfast. Will absolutely stay again.

There is a downright abusive man working at the front desk. He screamed at me this morning, and I mean screamed. For a variety of offenses he deemed me ‘guilty’ of. Then threatened to call the police on me when I refused to be alone with him at the front desk. Refused to tell me the balance we owed (apparently it was $16) but also wouldn’t let me leave. He is absolutely unhinged and deserves to be fired. I’m also not the first guest he’s done this. There are two others in the past three months alone.

Eskender was a most gracious and knowledgable host. Thank you.

We needed an early breakfast, and they accommodated us,

Le réceptionniste m'a accueillie à 11h15 assi à son bureau mangeant son assiette de poisson. M'informant, la bouche pleine, que le check in se faisait à partir de 14h. J'ai alors demandé à laisser mon bagage à la réception. Il a posé la clef du local à bagage sur le bureau m'invitant, la bouche pleine, à ouvrir la deuxième porte à droite. Aucune formule de politesse. L'accueil du soir fut bien plus chaleureux. Concernant la literie, les oreillers sont tâchés d'auréoles. Le petit-déjeuner moyen moins, présentation à la va vite exemple pain de mie renversé dans le panier à la verticale, idem pour les viennoiseries en bazar.

Greeted on arrival by a lovely man. He was completely happy explaining everything in English as my French isnt good. We had a complimentary bottle of wine. Room cleaned every day with fresh sheets and towels. Water pressure was amazing and hot. Brilliant location. Great value for money. Would definitely stay again.

Das Zimmer war sehr alt und verlebt. Das Frühstück war einfach, das Personal nicht bemüht aufzufüllen. Der Portier mit Pferdeschwanz war ausgesprochen unfreundlich und kein bisschen hilfsbereit. Auch bei anderen Hotelgästen. Das Viertel war sehr schön und die Metro direkt vor Ort. Wir würden dieses Hotel nicht mehr buchen.

Hotel un peu dans son jus une rénovation serait utile accueillis pas un vieux grincheux à queue de cheval très très désagréable très mal élevé arrivée 13h45 chambre reguse j ai du moi même prendre la clé pour déposé mes bagages dans un placard luibest rester sur son téléphone s en fout complètement retour 14h hotel fermer dû attendre devant au froid heureusement un homme sympa est venu ouvrir et me donner ma clé le grincheux absent sans laissé de message bravo allez voir ailleurs vous êtes mieux reçu

I lost my phone and the staff was wonderful. Helped me get it back and were very nice

I think the staff and I got off on the wrong foot when I checked in. Apparently, check in hours end at midnight and I missed that information so I checked in later and had to wake up a staff person who was seemingly irritated. After check in, my key card deactivated the next night so I couldn't get into the building after midnight when I went to an Olympic game that ended late, so I once again had to wake up the staff to sort out that issue. My key card deactivated the next day during the day and I was able to request a brand new card for the remainder of my stay (which was 5 more nights at this point). The location of the hotel made staying there worth it but in the confrontation with the front office staff member on the 2nd night, I left my USA soccer pin somewhere in the lobby and didn't find it after that. I was just really overwhelmed with the aggressive response I received when I was locked out of the building through no fault of mine. There were other people staying there who were locked out of their rooms because of keycard issues and the front office staff (specifically the night person) was clearly irritated with the whole situation. I didn't feel really safe staying there and it wasn't because of the location, but because of the staff. I don't think that I will stay there again and I hope the people working there have found some time to relax-- maybe they were overwhelmed with Olympic Tourism. Hoping that was the case and they were able to find some quiet.

Gentillesse de l’accueil, propreté des lieux, bonne situation géographique, bon petit déjeuner.

Very nice hotel. Small and simple but had all the essentials and staff were friendly. Fantastic location - very close to a metro and a short walk from the seine. Lots of places to eat nearby and walking distance from attractions like Notre Dame and the Louvre. Definitely recommend :)

Excellent location within easy walking distance to shops and restaurants. The hotel itself is quaint with friendly and helpful staff.

1 minutes walk to lots of cares/restaraunts nice busy area just around the corner ,but very quiet peacefull side street the hotel is on.nice clean rooms ,freindly helpfull staff.15 minute stroll to notre dame cathederal.breakfast wasn't very good but that's not a problem as you only need to walk 1 minute around the corner and you are spoilt for choice for nice breakfasts.i would definitely recomend this hotel and would stay here again and the complimentary bottle of red wine was a nice touch whent down well😋

Great location, quiet room on the top floor. Not large, but you don't come to Paris to spend time in your hotel. Staff were friendly, breakfast was convenient, if simple. The complimentary wine was a welcome touch!

Fantastik beliggenhed og service og det mest hyggelig hotel kommer igen. Servicen var helt i top de var så søde og hjælpsomme

As previous reviewers said, the hotel is on a quiet street but in the middle of everything. I had excellent sleeps, and found many dining options just minutes away.

Location was perfect, clean rooms although it was a little tight for bags & stuff. But overall still a great pick for hotel in Marais and convenient to everything

We recently spent a few nights at Hotel Castex in Paris and couldn’t have been happier. The room looked exactly like the photos, clean and cozy. The staff were friendly and always ready to help. It’s just steps from the metro and a short ride to Gare de Lyon. We would gladly stay here again.

Bra städning, bra läge.

Room was clean. Reception was great they had excellent suggestions for dining and arranged my taxi service reservation for my trip home. Fabulous French breakfast. Will absolutely stay again.

En primera no hablan español y no hacen ni el más mínimo intento y en su entrada aseguran que se hable ese idioma. En segunda pagué por un servicio de desayuno bufete y es una burla lo que te dan, no lo hagan

Very enjoyable hotel. Breakfast was good.

Hotel war ok zum schlafen reicht es aber mehr nicht. War sehr klein und das sauberste auch nicht. Bettwäsche war teilweise zerrissen. Frühstück war für das Geld auch nicht angemessen.

飯店位置絕佳, 房間OK, 以價位來說無可挑剔, 早餐很一般, 可以不用加價購買, 去附近覓食即可

1 minutes walk to lots of cares/restaraunts nice busy area just around the corner ,but very quiet peacefull side street the hotel is on.nice clean rooms ,freindly helpfull staff.15 minute stroll to notre dame cathederal.breakfast wasn't very good but that's not a problem as you only need to walk 1 minute around the corner and you are spoilt for choice for nice breakfasts.i would definitely recomend this hotel and would stay here again and the complimentary bottle of red wine was a nice touch whent down well😋

Not a thing to complain about. Great location, staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast in the cave was awesome. Room was small but had everything we needed. Bathroom was spotless. Highly recommend.

Habitación limpia, recepción cálida, botella de vino de cortesía, desayuno sabroso, todo higiénico

The room was small, older tiled floors but they were clean. Furniture dated but it was advertised as found in bygone days. I found the bed comfortable. The bathroom was a good size and newly renovated. Loved the shower. Our room had a kettle and tea bags. We arrived to a small bottle of wine as a gift. There was a small courtyard and guests often brought croissants, cheese and wine from shops around the corner and ate there. Breakfast was great. There were eggs you could boil and time yourself, ham, yogurt, cereals, breads, croissants, jams, teas, various coffees, and other items. I appreciated the gluten free bread. We were able to walk to the Bastille (2 blocks) and it was a 30 minute walk to Notre Dame. Metro was close by, as was bus service. Lots of reasonably priced cafes and restaurants within a block or two. A local vibrant neighbourhood so one had the feeling they were definitely in Paris.

Good size room and bathroom. Good hot water and water pressure. Convenient to subway and restaurants. Friendly And helpful staff. Breakfast included was ok but could use some more protein options. If I get back to Paris I'd stay there again.
