Hotel des Batignolles - Paris

I had a great experience with this hotel overall. Our room had comfortable beds, was clean, and been re-done recently so it was very modern looking. Fairly spacious room for a European hotel and the bathroom was really big. The staff spoke English very well and were incredibly helpful. The hotel is in very easy walking distance (less than 5 minutes) […] of the Rome Metro stop, easy and fast access to everywhere in the city and within walking distance of Montmartre. When I first booked I was concerned that it wasn't near the main tourist attractions, but I've since learned that the main tourist attractions in Paris aren't near each other, so you would have to take the metro even if you stayed right under the eiffel tower, so you should not let this dissuade you, the location is super convenient for getting the metro everywhere you'd like to go. Breakfast was convenient and provided plenty of variety (pastries, cereal, yogurt, toast, etc). The hotel is in a safe neighborhood, we felt comfortable walking around at night and is across from some good restaurants. The neighborhood is quiet at night. There is a nearby park that is gorgeous and perfect for going running. My only minor issue was with the maids, who failed to provide clean towels for a few days when ours were visibly dirty but this was a minor problem during an otherwise fantastic stay! Read more

Had a pleasant stay, it was clean, equipped with tv and private bathroom, nice view of the courtyard, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Staff actually volunteered moving me to a lower level room at checkin so I didn't have to carry my heavy suitcase up to the top floor, which was very considerate. Also had secure locks on the doors. The building […] is old, so there is a slight musty smell, creaky stairs, and small hallways, but it's typical of what you see in smaller European hotels. Restaurants, grocery stores, shops, atms are within a few blocks, and the neighborhood felt more residential than touristy. Both Pl d Clichy and Rome metro stops very close which will get you to the tourist locations quickly. One caution though: it was very difficult to get a taxi at 8am to the airport when I checked out, so prior arrangements should be made or take the metro Clichy to the train stations and then the airports if you some time.

excellent service and friendly staff. Great cafe Richard across the street for breakfast and dinner. Close to number 2 metro Rome station and lots of good and not expensive restaurants close by.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Good price and location, but the building itself is rather run down and musty smelling. The reception staff is pleasant and helpful. Most speak English, which was good, as I do not speak very much French. The bathroom was rather small, but the shower had a good amount of pressure, and there was always hot water. There are 2 hotels on the street rue […] des batignolles-- 1. hotel batignolles 2. hotel des batignolles-- so be careful when researching this hotel...I read a lot of reviews on expedia and other sites before staying here, and when i arrived i felt as though the good reviews may have been for the other hotel, which looked very modern and much nicer than hotel des batignolles when I walked past it. If you're just looking for a place to sleep and bathe, the bed and shower are fine and this hotel would suffice. However, I like my hotels a little nicer... On the other hand, location is central. It is close to a metro stop, and a one trip ticket only costs euro 1.70. It's in zone 1 on the metro map, which is where the eiffel tower and other tourist sites are, so getting around is a breeze. There is a delicious bakery with the best croissants and breads right across the street from the hotel, and there are many grocery stores and shops around. Moulin Rouge is a few blocks away, too!

The room service was terrible. They did not exchange the towels and did not re-put soap in the bathroom, even when needed. The bathroom garbage bag was left open on the dining room table during the two days I was staying. The corridors are small, cramped and stuffy, and also smell bad. The bathroom in the corridor was completely dirty and stinky. Someone […] used it days ago and they didn't cleaned it. We was surprised of how can a hotel keep their infrastructure so neglected. The breakfast charged separately is expensive for what is offered. There is no parking at the hotel nor next to it, and the particular one charge 25 euros daily (the closest is 5 squares away from the hotel). Certainly, I'm not going back to the hotel nor recommend it to anyone. Read more

This is an ok small hotel in the middle of Rue de Batignolles street. The location is great, a 5 minute walk from the Rome metro stop, right next to a small grocery store, bakery, bookstore and very many good inexpensive restauraunts. Room was quiet, windows opening to an indoor courtyard. Small place, only 6 rooms on the floor and I think four storeys. […] No elevator, so suitcase hauling was a pain. Bathroom didn't have a shower curtain, but a nice big tub. Overall room was clean and looks like they were under renovation, so one day we had no cupboard in the bathroom, the next it was there. Very simple furniture, I guess that's what three star is supposed to have. No fridge or coffee pot either. Our reservation did not have bed and breakfast, so when you book make sure you read the fine print. The grocery store was a life saver, because even though McD's and KFC are at the Place De Clichy metro 7 min away, but are not cheap. Front desk called the cab upon request so that was nice. Overall for the price and the location I would stay there again even with the simple furniture and a lack of breakfast, there's enough to do in Paris we just went to the hotel to sleep, but the shower curtain absense was interesting, no rod to hang it on either. To take a taxi from Eifel Tower it is 10 Euros, so not too far. CDG airport fee was 45Euros to get there and 50 to get back. Staff understood enough english. ATM is across the street too, that was convenient. Read more

Good location, close to metropolitan, breakfast cost resonable, english speaking, a lot of coffes shop and supermarket, pharmacys and restaurants around.Walking distance to main attractions.

The bathroom door could not be closed and the room itself looks like a cheap hotel room from 1920's.

It wasnt a bad hotel. Personally, I would have preferred something closer to the "big" sites.

Жили в отеле с 21.10 2010 по 29 10 2010. Отличное расположение отеля. Две ветки метро. Очень тёплый. Горячая вода без перебоев. Уборка в номере каждый день. Частая смена белья. В пяти минутах ходьбы биологический рынок (по выходным). Продуктовый магазин в 5-и метрах (с 8 до 22) и много других близко. На площади Клиши (5 мин.) все образцы стандартного […] питания (фланч, гиппопотумус и леон). Не много туристов. Кровать удобная, Мыло, шампунь. Соответствие цена-качество. Завтраки не брали. за 9 евро на человека можно отлично поесть в кафе или из магазина. Рядом недорогой китайский, марокканский и др. рестораны. И, конечно полно местных. В следующий раз остановимся там же. Read more

Its a struggle to come to terms with how expensive Paris is for Hotels. The room was poorly decorated but large and clean with comfy beds. Bathroom was large and well equipped (except no hairdryer) but there was no shower curtain around the bath. I wouldn't be put off staying here as for its price it was OK but I stayed somewhere else at the end of […] my trip in Paris which was a little more expensive but worth it. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

I have stayed in Paris many times and have to say that I really enjoyed my stay here. I looked at a number of other hotels but way swayed by the location and excellent reviews and was not disappointed at all! It is in an excellent location, close to the Rome Metro station and the Monmatre and Sacre Coeur and the Metro Line itself serves Gare du Nord […] (Chappelle), Charles De Gaulle Etoile (Champs Elysses/Arc De Triomphe). This line also connects well to other locations such as Louvre, Bastlille and Bir Hakkiem (Eiffel Tower). Comfort wise, the room was fine. It was very clean, well equipped and had a lovely bathroom, with a long, deep bath. There is also free Wifi in your room, as well as complimentary bath and shower gel. All the staff here speak excellent English and they were very welcoming and attentive. There is a left luggage room and despite the fact that check out if 11am, they allowed me to keep my bags there until 7pm so that I could get my train. In fact, being just a few stops from the Gare Du Nord, it is an ideal hotel for visitors who are travelling by train from London. in conclusion, i would highly recommend this hotel. It is inexpensive, yet stylish and in an excellent location. For a couple visiting Paris on a budget or a single person visiting alone, this is the perfect hotel and I will most certainly be staying here again on my return to Paris, Read more

The room was reasonably nice and in a good location. The reception staff were also very helpful and nice. What let the hotel down was the cleanliness. Our room smelt like dirty fish which we traced back to the bathroom. We had to keep the windows open the whole time. We left the room for about 10 hours of the day, put the "please make up my room" […] sign on the door, but our room was not serviced. The hotel was also very loud at night, with the sounds of other guests and water pipes. Read more

This hotel was near transit stations (metro) which made it really convenient. The street names are tiny (on plaques attached to the buildings) so make sure you have a printed map in hand. The garbage trucks were noisy in the morning but our room faced the courtyard so it was quite private. Staff were friendly and helpful. Only drawback was no elevator […] (we were on the fourth floor with heavy luggage) and no air conditioning. We would stay here again. Read more

This is a quiet hotel in a relatively non-touristy bit of Paris a little off the beaten track but walking distance to major sites like Montmartre and parc Monceau and within easy reach of gare Saint Lazare. The breakfast was more generous and varied that you would expect of a Parisian hotel in this category and the staff were very helpful. There are […] several nice restaurants nearby such as Le Percolateur on rue de Turin and a cluster at the end of rue des Batignolles round the church. My room overlooking the courtyard felt almost rustic. Read more

Good position; close to 2 metro stations, plus plenty of places to eat nearby from cheap and cheerful to expensive nouvea cuisine. The hotel staff were helpful and all spoke english which was a bonus when there was a problem with our booking when we first arrived! They were also happy to provide bottle openers etc! The hotel was being re-decorated whilst […] we were there, but this did not create any problems. Great continental breakfast, although dining space was limited. A good place to stay on a budget Read more

Wifi internet does not work in the rooms, only in the stairwells and at reception desk, which is very inconvenient. Also, there is no elevator so dozens of guests are humping their luggage up the stairs. The room was not clean, towels were old and torn. Would not stay there again.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Ten minutes from Metro, lots of activity around the area including good places to eat; room with a bath, very quiet; inner courtyard. Stair carpet could be replaced but the room itself was fine. Main light did not work, but a large flatscreen TV. Internet spped is very slow. Overall, great value for Paris.

I loved this hotel, our room was spacious, and we had an outdoor private roof top patio. The desk staff were helpful, friendly and had a good attitude. When they didn't know an answer to our question, they looked it up. They were always pleasant to talk to. Rooms were quiet. To get to downtown Paris you just take a subway, which has a stop within walking […] distance. I would stay at this hotel again! Read more

The rooms were cold,dirty and very small. The bathrooms were tiny and unclean. I had to change rooms 3 times to find one that was remotely acceptable. On top of the wardrobe was a layer of dust that had been untouched in months. The staff were surly and uncaring,and we had small items missing from the room. To say that this hotel was a filthy disaster […] would be paying it a compliment. I would never set foot in it again. Read more

Positives: - Location (5 min walk to the Rome Metro station) - Price - Reception was friendly. - Free WiFi, with transmitters on each floor. - They can hold/store your bags on the day you check out if you have time to kill and don't want to drag your gear around town. Negatives: - Noisy. There was a drain pipe running through our room from an upstairs […] room (doubt every room has this however), so you could hear running water everytime the other occupant flushed the toilet or used a tap. You could also hear them walking around etc. Very little protection from the traffic outside. I had to wear ear plugs. - Cleaners are lazy. Cleaning is a tough job, but replacing rolls of toilet paper and soap isn't. I had to ask for toilet paper on 2 occasions, and on the second the receptionist just showed me where the storage room was so I could help myself LOL. - No breakfast included, no jug/kettle or drinks in the room. In fact, they charge 1.50euro for a tea!?!?! - They have an unusual system of handing the key in everytime you go out. Sometimes you're waiting to get your key back upon returning if there is no one at reception. - It's in dire need of a lick of paint and a bit of a spruce up, but it's not unclean. - No lift. Didn't bother me, even though I was on the 3rd floor, but might bother others. - Some rooms have bathrooms (mine did, and it was nice and clean), some rooms don't and you have to share communals. Check when/if you book. Read more

The hotel location was good, not a long walk to the main attractions and situated very close to the metro. We were after a cheap hotel to basically sleep while we were in Paris which was the only time we spent in the hotel, which I would assume that is most peoples opinion as you dont go to Paris to stay in the hotel. The room wasn't the most modern […] but as mentioned we didnt expect very much which is what we got. All in all if your after similar then there is nothing wrong with the hotel, if your after soemthing a little more up market then I wouldnt go. Read more

Don't expect nothing short of a college dormroom. The rooms are small and the bathroom is even smaller. The hotel is very dated but the staff is great. If you have have champagne taste on a beer budget keep looking.

There was a hole in the blankets (it happens). When I mentionned that at the reception he felt offended: "the blankets do not belong to the hotel but to an external company".

Hotellet overraskede mig positivt. Værelset virkede nyistandsat, rent og i det hele taget rigtigt godt til prisen. Personlet var venligt og hjælpsomt. Området kan man på ingen måde klage over.
