Hotel Marena

This was my second visit, the first since renovations. My room , I think, had not been renovated yet, but It was very clean, very quiet, and not too small for a Paris hotel room in such a perfect location. The staff was more than courteous and helpful. I hope that the next time I come the door of my room looks more like the pictures shown on the site, there are no toiletries (but good liquid soap and hair dryer). It is in a real Paris neighborhood, with easy access to the metro, small shops and very good (non touristy restaurants).I will definitely go back to this hotel if it is available when I next visit Paris.

Hotel piccolo in zona centrale e vicino ai mezzi. Stanza recentemente ristrutturata e pulita ma poco isolata sia acusticamente che termicamente. Il radiatore in camera era insufficiente e dalla finestra del bagno gli spifferi facevano entrare aria freddissima. Ai piani superiori erano presenti dei lavori di ristrutturazione.

Der Service, die Sauberkeit sind gut im Hotel, das Personal ist sehr freundlich. Was für uns leider aber absolut nicht in Ordnung war ist die Lautstärke im und um das Hotel. Unser Hotelzimmer lag direkt neben dem Aufzug, bei jeder Fahrt des Aufzuges saß man senkrecht im Bett, da dieser die Vibrationen auf Wände und Boden überträgt. Die Tür des Aufzuges knallt bei jedem schließen. Quasi im Haus befindet sich eine Bar, bis tief in die Nacht (2-3 Uhr) wird laute Musik gespielt, die Besucher schreien drausen auf der Straße. Leider kein Hotel für ruhige Nächte, die auf tolle Tag in der Stadt vorbereiten. Wir haben leider nicht viel Ruhe gefunden. Wer also ein Hotel sucht, in dem man sich entspannen kann, ist hier leider nicht richtig aufgehoben. Schade, da dass Personal wirklich super ist. Wir würden uns beim nächsten Besuch für ein anderes Hotel entscheiden.

Staff was extremely kind & helpful throughout our stay from the front desk to the breakfast area, the A/C in our hotel rooms was a gem of a find & the unique layout (L-shape) of one of our rooms worked out perfectly for us; the elevator was tight for the 4 of us plus our luggage but we seemed to manage, one of our hotel room doors needed some WD-40 because it was awfully squeaky (and heavy). Location is quite a distance from the metro which wasn’t much of an issue for us at the time but could be for some guests.

The Hotel Marena delivers more than enough for what you pay for. As a 3 star hotel, you can't expect the world. It needs some renovation, the communal areas are a little run down. Our room (502, an attic style room) could have done with a new carpet (it was a little worn in places), but other than that, it was great for the price! The bathroom seemed recently redecorated and everything was spotless, props to the cleaners! The towels are nice and thick. The hair dryer isn't very strong - it did the job, but I've got fine hair and it took about 20 minutes to dry it. The bed was firm but comfy, there were two chairs, a small desk and a full length mirror in the room. No clothes rails or hooks and no safe. The room view down the road and over chimney pots is very sweet. We didn't notice any noise at night, but then we sleep with earplugs in. The walls seem a little thin, we could hear conversations in the hall way really clearly in the mornings. The reception staff are super helpful, and there at all hours! The area is absolutely fine, we (a male/female couple in our late twenties) felt perfectly safe wandering around in the evening. There are a few busy bars nearby, and one next to the hotel if you fancy a drink before bed. We didn't get up early enough to get down for breakfast. All in all, we'd come back 😊

I stayed at Hotel Marena for a short weekend visit to Paris. I was on a budget and this hotel seemed to strike a good balance in terms of location and overall look and feel. The hotel is about 15 minutes on foot from Gare du Nord so it’s ideal if, like me, you are travelling on the Eurostar from London. I was able to find the hotel easily and when I arrived I was greeted by a pleasant man who checked me in quickly. I was asked to put my card down for a refundable pre-authorisation amount of Euro 100 which is pretty standard and was quickly given my room key. I didn’t pay for breakfast, however I wasn’t asked if I wanted to pay for it or even given details of timing and location. Equally I wasn’t told anything about WiFi. I already had both pieces of information when I got to the hotel so I didn’t need to ask but for a less informed traveller it might be nice to know and would make for a warmer welcome. My room was on the third floor. I’m not fond of lifts so I took the, very narrow, staircase. It was fine as I didn’t have much luggage but the hallways and stairs are indeed really narrow and, as I found out later, the walls are very thin. Luckily I had considerate neighbours so no one bothered me but I could definitely hear conversations, doors opening and closing, etc. I had a single cosy room - definitely on the smaller size but well appointed and most importantly extremely clean. There’s no safe and the shower doesn’t have a glass so it will splash everywhere.

Customer service was excellent, room was small, no parking at property. Very clean rooms and hotel in general. Definitely stay there again.

My hotel stay was lovely. The room was clean and well appointed. The bed was very comfortable and the room was a perfect size for a solo traveller. The staff at the front desk were all very friendly and helpful and even recommended the best Thai restaurant to me down the street. I had trouble with the AC the first night, just ask the front desk about the room temperature when you check in and all will be good! The location was also good, I could walk to the Seine in about 25 minutes and got a chance to explore less busy areas in Paris!

Tout a été parfait lors de mon séjour, que ce soit l'accueil, la propreté des communs et de la chambre, la salle de bains parfaitement fonctionnelle, le confort du matelas et le calme. Je recommande cet établissement les yeux fermés.

Convenient location ,extremely small rooms no amenities that work like a working hairdryer. Broken cliset doors dirty curtains.

Great location for Montmartre and its stunning views and so convenient for Gare du Nord. Very friendly, welcoming staff - smiles all round. Welcome cold drink and cake much appreciated. Room is typically city small but is spotlessly clean with all you need including a kettle, towels, shower gel and soap.

Établissement de qualité. Propre très confortable et personnel accueillant. Les chambres bien que pas très grande, sont bien équipées et « douillettes » . Petit déjeuner très correct, dans cadre de qualité

Rigtig fin morgenbuffet, med godt udvalg. Virkelig pæne og rene værelser med dejlig seng. Skønt hotel

Chambre très propre et décorée simplement mais avec gout. Je viens dans cet hotel lorsque je dois me déplacer à Paris et je n'ai jamais été déçue par l'acceuil ou la chambre. Valeur sure.

Clean room with friendly staff.

Hôtel bien situé, au calme , propre avec une bonne literie.

Friendly and helpful staff. Clean rooms.

This was an okay 2-star hotel, not 3 star as advertised. For $174 dollars a night, the TV should have worked and the aircon should have been better. As a typical 2-star, it was nice but very small. These hotels used to cost $85 bucks a night, maybe a $100 but ridiculous charging $174. The staff was nice.

The quality of the rooms vary from poor (small and difficult to manage) to fair. The bathroom showers are terribly designed, spreading water everywhere. The towels provided are among the BEST we've experienced - large and clean. The staff at the front desk are accommodating. The location is close to MontMarte and accessible by foot to buses/metro. The internet service was poor - intermittent and variable at best.

Die Zimmer sind absolut winzig. Zu zweit kann man sich kaum umdrehen. Aber wer nur zum schlafen da ist, für den ist es wahrscheinlich egal. Die Gegend ist schön, ganz nah am moulin rouge uns viele Lokale in der Gegend. Zu den üblichen Sehenswürdigkeiten läuft man aber ein wenig. Ich würde es wegen der winzigen Zimmer wahrscheinlich nicht nochmal buchen. Aber sie waren sauber und ordentlich. Da kann man nicht meckern.

The hotel was fine. The staff were helpful and friendly, especially the man on the front desk during the day. The area the hotel is in is nice with metro stations in walking distance, food restaurants around and close to Gare du nord. The rooms were fine. We stayed for 2 nights and it did the job however the walls are very thin and you can hear everything in the other rooms around you and in the corridor. The bathroom is a bit tight and somewhere for your luggage to go would be nice but the bed was comfy and everything is clean.

Estivemos no hotel no verão. Estava muito quente em Paris. O hotel não tem ar condicionado e o ventilador é de torre, não deu vazão para 3 pessoas em um quarto. Após solicitarmos encarecidamente, arranjaram outro ventilador de torre. O quarto era numa espécie de sótão, estão era muito quente. O pessoal da recepção sabe dessa condição, foram solicitos, mas realmente foi mt desconfortável pelo calor. O quarto e banheiro eram limpos. Tb não tem frigobar. O bairro é tranquilo. Eles falaram que o hotel deverá ser climatizado à partir de outubro. Se forem no alto verão, eu aconselho se certificarem se já está climatizado. Fora isso, foi tudo bem.

Staff were lovely, but room was smaller than expected and had no means for hanging clothes.

Accueil chaleureux: la receptionniste de jour était très agréable, consigne pour les bagages vu que le check-in n'est pas avant 15h00. Chambre et sanitaires (salle d'eau étroite mais je fais 1,57m et 57 kgs donc ça passait) très propres. Literie confortable. On entend le bruit des portes, de couloir.

Great location, helpful staff, very good value and room itself great but I was on the 4th floor and the walls were paper thin. I may have just been unlucky but everyone around me was loud and up late so despite my comfy bed, sleep was at a minimum.

room small but the bathroom was inconveniently small and outdated

Hotel Marena was very centrally located in the Paris 9th Arrondissement. It was a very safe location. The hotel beds were comfortable. The room and the bathroom were very clean. The staff was friendly and helpful. We only had one slight issue and that was when the front desk girl tried to set us up to overpay for a taxi ride...$45 euros for a 6 minute ride to the train station...NOPE I'm not a dumb American. The Uber charged $11 but we could have walked in there in 9 minutes. Other than that we had a wonderful stay and I highly recommend Hotel Marena. I would stay again.

Great staff

The rudest staff you will ever see. The receptionists are veeery rude, and the view is terrible. They won't allow you to check in until you pay a €100 guarantee

Great hotel with a friendly staff

L’hôtel est bien placé l’accueil a été au top. La chambre était jolie et propre. Mention spéciale au réceptionniste Éric qui a été bienveillant, à l’écoute, disponible et d’une extrême gentillesse pendant toute la durée de mon séjour, c’est agréable d’avoir un si bel accueil dans un hôtel à Paris, je reviendrai avec plaisir.

All of the staff at Hotel Marena were great. They helped us hold our luggage until check in, checked us in easily, and ordered a taxi for us to get to the airport. The room was clean and quiet, yet close to bars and restaurants in the area and just a short walk to Montmartre and metro stops. A great value.

Adele at the front desk was very helpful! Great place to stay

I loved everything about this place. The staff was so helpful. I will definitely be coming here again. The beds are very comfortable. And the breakfast is just perfect, not too much, but too little, just right. Jenna, in the front desk is amazing. She gave me directions everyday. The area is totally safe. My son and I had so much fun in Paris. We're walking as late as 2:30 am in the morning on the streets. When the train and the bus stop working. There is a little mart down the street that you can purchase water.

We had a wonderful stay . The hotel is located perfectly close to all the Paris spots you would like to visit such as the Chamse Elisee etc. I must thank the staff at Marena hotel especially Sana in the front desk that helped us with directions and recommended places to eat and also got us a late check out as our flight was leaving at night. We will book this hotel again

La habitación es muy pequeña, pero tiene lo necesario. El personal de recepción poco amigable. Es una buena opción este hotel.

Great location to Gard du Nord and surrounding metros. Lots of shops and restaurants as you’re near Monmartre. The hotel is clean, up to date with everything you need. They allowed me to leave my luggage until check in and the staff were very friendly and helpful.

A little bit far from the Metro Station, but good hotel.

The room wasn’t the most spacious I’ve ever stayed in but it was clean, quiet and comfortable and the staff were friendly and welcoming. Location was ideal, being walkable from Gare du Nord and close to Montmartre.

excellent emplacement et quartier calme.

Bra läge nära Gare du Nord, promenadavstånd till mesta. Lugnt område.

First time in Paris and was unsure where to stay but this hotel proved to be good value in an expensive city. The room was very clean and hotel staff spoke good English. The location was great with Sacre Coeur a 15minute walk and major Train Stations Gare De Nord and Gare De L'Est were an easy 20minute walk. Walk 10 to 15 minutes in any direction and there were plenty of shops and cafes. To get into central Paris I simply walked 10minutes to Anvers Metro train station and took the M2 line to Charles De Gaulle Etoile station which took around 20 minutes. Following the signs at the station I came out at the Champs Elysee within 100m of the Arc de Triomphe and from there you can catch the Big Bus tour or just walk to the major sites like the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre.

Ausgeprägt nette und liebe Personal, sehr sauber, Frühstück hat noch sehr große Potential sich zu verbessern. Die Lage ist leise und bietet sehr gute Anschlüsse an öffentlichen Verkehrsmittel. Eindeutig zu empfehlen.

Great location for Montmartre and its stunning views and so convenient for Gare du Nord. Very friendly, welcoming staff - smiles all round. Welcome cold drink and cake much appreciated. Room is typically city small but is spotlessly clean with all you need including a kettle, towels, shower gel and soap.

The breakfast was very good. It was authentic, plentiful and delicious. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The two closest metro stops are a bit of a hike but there is plenty to do in the area as far as bars and restaurants. Sacred Heart is about a 15 minute walk as is the Moulin Rouge.

We liked most things about the hotel, including the friendly staff and excellent breakfast choices. One thing we particularly liked was the quiet, cool and efficient AC system. It was welcomed during a very hot week. We also liked the neighborhood, which was just far enough away from the touristy and loud Pigalle area. It's a nice neighborhood with cafes, restaurants and schools.

We were a group of 3 and were so pleasantly surprised with how clean and comfy this room was! The bedding was excellent, towels super big and soft and it was so clean! The icing on the cake was definitely watching the sunrise over the cathedrals of Notre dame from our room window! Wow!

Great location, friendly staff, good breakfast.

Buen hotel y bien ubicado, retornaria. Buen desayuno.

Super friendly staff, everything was a pleasure and done with a smile. Breakfast lacked in quantity and some days there was very little, and with no one around to replenish. Otherwise a very good place to stay for exploring Paris, and some special touches for our special occasion.

Good location, quiet area, good breakfast.

The hotel was conveniently located close to multiple subway and bus lines. Getting everywhere was super easy and convenient. The room we got was small, but cozy. The view from the windows was amazing, especially as it was a corner room and we could see both streets. Breakfast was simple but so good. Fresh bread, eggs, ham, cheese, coffee, jams and tea. The bathroom was very nice and comfortable. The only thing that i noticed was not great was the toilet, it was lacking in power so it wouldn't flush properly, I don't if it was a temporal thing or if it's always like that. But somethingto keep in mind. Overall, the stay was wonderful, the beds were comfortable and the ambience nice.

Rigtig fin morgenbuffet, med godt udvalg. Virkelig pæne og rene værelser med dejlig seng. Skønt hotel

La ubicación es buenísima, 10 min a pie del moulin rouge, 15 min a montmartre, 20 min al louvre y está cerca a una calle llena de restaurantes, supermercados y facilidades de transporte. Todo el personal fue muy amable, nos dieron recomendaciones y siempre nos ayudaron con todo. La habitación es de buen tamaño, ibamos con 6 maletas y no estuvimos incómodos en ningún momento. El baño es limpio y bonito, la calefacción funciona muy bien, no se escucha ruido de afuera, hay ascensor, todo en general estuvo excelente. Ofrecen un desayuno por 9 euros pero no lo tomé porque no tenían huevos lo cual es esencial para mi, es lo único que creo que pueden mejorar (asi incrementen un poco el precio). El internet funciona muy bien y el precio es buenísimo para tratarse de París, volvería a hospedarme allí sin duda y se lo recomiendo a cualquiera. GRACIAS!!
