Color Design Hotel

Aucun service dans cet hôtel. Pas de possibilité d'avoir un café ou une boisson. Pas de bouilloire dans la chambre. Les draps étaient propres mais avec quelques traces. 1 ampoule sur 2 fonctionnait. L'entrée dans la douche était acrobatique puisque le lavabo a été placé juste devant. Impossible de travailler puisque le réseau mobile semble difficile dans ces chambres (Orange comme Free) et que le wifi tournait entre 500k et 1mbs.

elevator not working - my parents had a hard time getting to 5th floor

TL:DR - Not perfect but great where it matters and I'd definitely stay there again. The Detail - The hotel's location is in a normal, working class area or Paris. It's fine, I never felt unsafe. Local bars & restaurants are good. Nearest Metro (Ledru Rollin) is about 7-10 minutes walk, Gare De Lyon 12-15 minutes. Hotel public areas are a little tired & scuffed up. My room was plain but everything worked & was spotlessly clean. Bathroom good, shower had excellent water pressure but was a little slow to drain. Not a big problem. The air con was brilliant, I actually had to back it off a bit, despite it being quite warm outside. Bed linens & towels spotless. Free hotel internet was pretty slow - I wouldn't be able to use it for work. The staff were friendly, helpful. I needed an ice pack keeping cool for keeping medicine chilled on my onward journey & this was accommodated without hesitation. The biggest disconnect is between the public photo's and the reality. They must show the best room, just after a refresh. I'd really like their website designer to revise my Tinder profile. That's not to say the hotel is bad....it's not. Just a little plain and in need of an update. It offers great value for money, I'd definitely stay there again and I'd recommend it. Oh, I've just remembered the safe. I couldn't get it to lock and it wasn't secured to anything anyway. I could put under my arm and walk off with it! But I never felt like my possessions were at risk.

Hotel was clean and tidy. The room was promoted as a twin room, but it was a large double bed, luckily it was not too much of a problem. The room safe was not working and also it was NOT fixed to the wall - so it was of no use. The lift was very small (it only has capacity for 3 adults), so if you have very large luggage, it could be a problem if your room is on the 2nd or 3rd floor. There is a small restaurant that does breakfast only, but this is not a problem as there are plenty of restaurants very close to the hotel and are open until very late. The staff were helpful and always willing to help and advise on any questions you have.

Hôtel agréable, chambre et sdb propres et refaites, et literie confortable. Petit bémol sur le bruit que font les portes de l’ascenseur. Un bruit classique…mais qui s’entendait très fortement dans la chambre dans laquelle nous étions, la 301.

Breakfast- good selection and it was nice. At 15 Euros it was good. Space- room was very small. The steps up were narrow and so was the elevator. TV- was all in French and we couldn’t get any programming in English nor was there CC in English Sleep- the bed was comfortable and the street was quiet.

A decent hotel to stay in for a couple of nights, a good area that was close by to metro & train stations which made getting around Paris a lot easier! There was a few things with the room I did not like there was light fixture loose in the ceiling and a few spotlights missing bulbs. The hairdryer that was provided in the bathroom did not work. The stairs were very narrow and the lift did not work at times, which wasn’t great being on the top floor having to walk up or down all the flights of stairs. Staff were pleasant and welcoming the entire stay.

Bien placé, literie confortable, buffet petit dejeuner avec du jus d'orange pressé minute.

Ascenseur très bruyant de la chambre 301

A basic hotel that definitely provides good value for money. Clean, and very well air-conditioned. Pretty good bed too. Convenient (Metro and Carrefour City). Decent choices of French cafes. Stayed during last week of Paris 2024 Olympics.

Mycket smusig innegård bland anat fimpar på fönsterbrädan och trasig lampa på rummet och uppbruten dörr till ett rum.

Dans l'ensemble c'était plutôt une bonne expérience. Néanmoins il y a quelques bémols, dont certains selon moi non acceptables. Le boitier de la carte en entrant dans la chambre est cassée, mais bon fonctionnel donc ça va. La partie lit était elle, propre et bien présentée. Par contre dans la salle de bain : la tête de douche en haut est pleine de calcaire et pas tres propre, les lumières sortent du plafond avec les fils qui dépassent, la douche était bouchée par un tas de cheveux et autres saletés que j'ai du enlever moi-même (c'était répugnant), les boutons de la chasse d'eau sont cassés (le petit totalement non fonctionnel, et le grand reste bloqué), enfin le sèche serviette et plein de rouilles c'est bof. Je pense que plusieurs choses sont à revoir, surtout le nettoyage de la douche et les lumières qui pourraient représenter un danger.

For the price let s stay it was acceptable Cleaning was not perfect And the hotel is aging badly A pity because it used to be a good hotel well maintained and clean

Hotel 3 stelle solo a parole, nei fatti nemmeno una stella. Camera piena di polvere, mochette sporca, vasca piena di macchie/scheggiature, phon per capelli non funzionante e durante il soggiorno di 5 notti lenzuola mai cambiate, asciugamani molto spesso strappate ai bordi. Non è presente il frigo e nessun set cortesia. Solo 2 bichierri di carta. Il personale per niente cordiale, ascensore piccolissimo pertanto ogni volta difficoltà a salire con il passeggino e la stanza non è affatto insonorizzata, si sente tutto dalle stanze ai piani superiori e inferiori. La posizione buona, non molto distante dalla metro, e su una strada per soli pedoni, supermercato vicinissimo e locali dove mangiare cibo locale.

really nice bed. clean

Chambre très sale

Proche de la gare de Lyon donc pratique. Par contre, un peu sale et très mal insonorisé

You’d expect more if it was rated as a 3 star but unfortunately the room weren’t very clean at all, and you can’t close your door properly

De forma geral a estadia proporcional o básico! Mas em serviço de limpeza o hotel deixou a desejar. Em 2 dias de estadias não tivemos serviço de quarto e se tivemos não foi adequado. Lixo dentro do quarto, banheiro sujo, e materiais de cama não foram trocados.

Belle chambre, calme et bon emplacement de l'hôtel, à 300 mètres d'une station de métro Accueil agréable. Quelques traces de moisissures dans la salle de bain, une bouteille d'eau écrasée coincée sous notre matelas et suspicion d'une punaise de lit.

Literie confortable, flexible de douche percés, pompe a savon cassé, lavabo bouché, applique près du lit cassé, et très mal insonorisée

Nous avons trouvé qu'il y avait trop de bruit à l'intérieur de l'hôtel nous avons entendu tous nos voisins beaucoup plus que l'extérieur

Il vero punto forte di questo albergo è la posizione, molto vicino alla linea della metro ma anche alla stazione centrale. La camera che ci hanno assegnato era abbastanza grande e un punto a favore per il materasso comodissimo. Ovviamente qualche dettaglio da migliorare qua e là esiste, ma per il prezzo pagato va più che bene

Breakfast- good selection and it was nice. At 15 Euros it was good. Space- room was very small. The steps up were narrow and so was the elevator. TV- was all in French and we couldn’t get any programming in English nor was there CC in English Sleep- the bed was comfortable and the street was quiet.

We stayed in a room right next to the elevator and you could hear it going up and down all night, as well as being able to hear everything through the doors. There may as well have not been a wall. The room wasn’t really anything like the picture. There also didn’t appear to be a smoke alarm in our room…

Not quite sure where the "design" comes from in this hotel. It is not a bad place to stay but the name is pretty misleading. Everything is old and for example the two bedlamps in the room were broken. but it was wonderfully quiet all through the night. Big bonus.

Chambre du rdc. Vieille maison divisée, on attendait tout ce qui se passe à l’´etage !

Point négatif Tv très mauvaise réception, et pas de table ni chaise pour travailler (si déplacement professionnel) wifi parfait et lit très confortable

For a low cost, very solid stay. Simple check in & out. Building & area felt safe enough. Lively neighborhood but the hotel is on a quiet street. They keep the room keys when you left which felt odd at first but ultimately it’s one less thing to lose. Desk always staffed. Wifi was finicky but mostly operational. I wouldn't recommend if fast connection is a priority. Rooms are small but perfectly functional. Staff refreshed the room everyday. A little rough around the edges, aged caulking in the bathroom, broken toilet buttons, minor, minor things. Why bother with an extra breakfast when there are innumerable cafes around? If you are planning to sleep & wash up here, it is perfect in my opinion. If you want lavish, maybe look further.

Bon hotel à 15 min à pied de la gare de Lyon Tout était bien à part l’isolation entre les chambres qui serait un peu à revoir Mais tout le reste était très bien

The linen of the room was horrible; seems clean but when you look closely it has a lot of pubic hair entangled with the bed linen. The lady front desk officer isn't friendly to answer guest's inquiries, we did even waited for her to finish recording the news about airbnb's before she attends to us. The guy front desk officer whose shift starts after her is more helpful and know's how hostality works for guests like us.

This was our third stay at the Color Design Hotel and every time has been as perfect as the last. The staff is always thoughtful and courteous. The rooms are small, but very comfortable. The price is well below what you could easily spend in Paris. The neighborhood is absolutely outstanding with the local farmers market a few blocks away. Cafés, bakeries, restaurants and nightlife everywhere right outside the front door!

Amazing stay Erika was fantastic, I stayed for the Paris half marathon and she went above and beyond to make my stay fantastic thank u

The street and the alley we walked down just didn't seem safe, especially in the evening. We had to leave the key each time we left. There was a little safe, however it could be picked up and taken away. The receptionist at check in was more interested in her phone conversation, than us. When we checked out, there was a lovely lady who helped us get a cab.

Hôtel avec réception 24h/24h. Personnel agréable, calme et bien situé (proche Gare de Lyon)

There are some good rooms and some old crappy rooms so make sure you ask for a newer room. Also every time you leave the property they take your room key from you !! In my 68 years of traveling the world never have I had to surrender my room key every time I left the hotel VERY STANGE POLICY

Personnel aimable et accomodant, literie confortable, design sympa.

The picture online of the lobby, was nothing like the lobby. Guest have to turn in their room key each time they want to go out.

Accueil assez froid. Hotel sans âme et vieillissant. Du coup cela ne m’a pas donné envie de prendre mon petit déjeuner sur place ce qui est rare. Point positif assez calme.

Location 👍

This is actually a great place to stay, location close to line 8 and line 1 on the metro, very easy connection to CDG and all sites. It is a very quiet street, (so much so you are not sure if you are there! Perhaps an illuminated sign would help), we followed walking instructions on google maps to find it which worked well. So, quiet location and good nights sleep based on that, you just walk to the end of the small avenue and suddenly you are on a much busier road with many cafes/bars/places to eat, we particularly liked Le Trois Freres, that is the yellow line 1metro side and then there were a collection of other places almost in a little square near the purple 8 line. Bed was comfy, shower was nice. There isn't a kettle as standard which I had seen in another review so I asked at reception if we could have one and they do have them and gave me one to take to my room so I was able to make my morning cuppa. Saw a review that said no towels but there were towels and there were extra in the drawers again, if you ask I am sure they will provide, reception were very accommodating. The only reason it is not 5 stars is that it does feel a bit strange going outside the back of the hotel to get to your room, this was on 4th floor you walk up inside, then go out to go back in. I think this is probably what the building are like in Paris as they are all quite tall and narrow which was echoed on the stair case. Good location, comfy bed, small room but all you need.

TL:DR - Not perfect but great where it matters and I'd definitely stay there again. The Detail - The hotel's location is in a normal, working class area or Paris. It's fine, I never felt unsafe. Local bars & restaurants are good. Nearest Metro (Ledru Rollin) is about 7-10 minutes walk, Gare De Lyon 12-15 minutes. Hotel public areas are a little tired & scuffed up.

Nice hotel conveniently located close to Gare de Lyon. Clean. Comfortable. And reasonably priced. A very good find for Paris.

very pleasant experience. excellent location, many bars and restaurants nearby, easy access to the metro. near Bastille.

Fint litet välskött hotell. Bra läge med bra kommunikationer.

Hôte très bien situé avec métro à proximité et beaucoup de petit commerce pour vous facilité votre séjour la Gare de Lyon ce ce situe à 15 minute de marche et vous avez la ligne 8 qui vous amène à Paris expo pour le salon de l automobile ou autre personnel très à l écoute et d une gentillesse incroyable

Location was okay, the direct neighbourhood seemed sketchy at night. Hotel seems dated compared to the photos.

Chambre petite, mais très confortable, avec une bonne literie et une salle de bains très agréable. L'hôtel est très bien situé, pas loin de la gare de Lyon (7 min à pieds), près de Nation et Bastille, dans un quartier très sympa. Très bon rapport qualité-prix pour Paris, je recommande.

Buena experiencia, tiene todo lo esencial, es comodo, el desayuno es muy basico pero está bien. Cerca de estaciones del metro

A comfortable stay for 4 nights in Paris. Not an ideal location for a tourist in terms of proximity to sites but good for the price and in a very nice area with many good cafes and restaurants. A small room but very clean and comfortable. Shower was really nice.

Breakfast- good selection and it was nice. At 15 Euros it was good. Space- room was very small. The steps up were narrow and so was the elevator. TV- was all in French and we couldn’t get any programming in English nor was there CC in English Sleep- the bed was comfortable and the street was quiet.

Hotel was convenient walk from Gare du Lyon on a quiet but run down side street. Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was small but clean and housekeeping came in daily. Lots of local restaurants, cafes and outdoor markets within 5 to 15 minutes walk.

Bien placé, literie confortable, buffet petit dejeuner avec du jus d'orange pressé minute.

The property was overall very nice, not the most clean / updated ever but good enough. All of the staff was extremely helpful. The area around the hotel has plenty of restaurants and easy access to the metro.

Trace sur les étagères de la chambre, spot d’éclairage au plafond absent ou qui tombe, seau et aspirateur qui bloque le passage à la sortie de l’ascenseur pour accéder a la salle du petit déjeuner. Prix du petit déjeuner excessif pour la qualité et le choix disponible.

Good breakfast buffet. Very nice staff.

A basic hotel that definitely provides good value for money. Clean, and very well air-conditioned. Pretty good bed too. Convenient (Metro and Carrefour City). Decent choices of French cafes. Stayed during last week of Paris 2024 Olympics.
