Hôtel Du Globe 18

The reviews of this place really undersell the neighbourhood for two reason. 1. It is only close to the Monmarte and otherwise transit is thirty minutes get to the other “big sites”. This is not a big deal if you are on budget or want to avoid the big tourist traps of Paris. 2. I do call some racial components here in my honest opinion. The 18th arrondissement is a “non white” community, bustling with halal cafes and African street markets. If being the only white skinned American in an area bothers you then check in somewhere else. Now honestly speaking, I am a 23 yr old female with my partner we stayed here and moved via transit and walking in this community at all hours of the days. Out at 6am 1am and all throughout the afternoon. The people do not bother, follow, or speak to you and if you know where you’re going the trains are very close by. Paris in general feels like the city to keep an eye on your things. I felt this in every metro and every district. The hotel is quite at night, the staff are welcoming and allowed us to use umbrellas and the male night staff made me a cup of tea free of charge when I requested a drink. Yes. This is no five star hotel, and has modest furnishings and some quirks of its own, yes it feels like you’ve stepped away from Parisian France, but this does not compromise the trip if you want an off the beaten track experience in Paris.

While the room was a bit small, we still loved and would recommend Hotel du Globe 18! The staff was lovely and it was in a very walkable area.

My stay at the Hotel Du Globe was for two nights it was very nice. The room was clean shower good hot water tv which was on the first floor. The staff are friendly spoke English as I only speak a little French. Breakfast was good. Location was good. Overall a very pleasant stay. Merci Bien. Jon
