We stayed in the hotel for five nights in March and I would highly recommend this hotel to other tourists wishing to travel to Paris. The hotel is a 5 minutes walk away from Gare du Nord. It is predominantly a migrant area around Gare du Nord but I can truly say that as two girls travelling alone we expererienced no problems. There is an excellent selection of Indian and ethnic restaurants in the area which are extremely reasonabaly priced. The staff in the hotel were polite and friendly and the hotel provides free internet access in reception. The room itself was large and clean, with a moderately sized bathroom and a large flat screen TV. No noise could be heard from the road. The room was cleaned on a daily basis by the housekeeping staff. The breakfast included in the price was unfortunately very poor - a self service coffee machine, inedible bread rolls and bad orange juice so I wold advise customers to go out for breakfast to one of the local Indian bakeries where you can have a croissant and coffee for a reasonable €2.00. If you chose to get something in Gare du Nord, you will pay predominantly more. I very much enjoyed my stay in this hotel and would definitely return on future visits to the city.
