Overall Ratings & Reviews Residhome Paris Saclay – Bures sur Yvette

Really good hotel with unbelievably comfortable beds.

It’s cheap - a bit in the middle of nowhere but there are train stations a moderate walk either side

Not so good too far from the city. The address want clear so we ended up at some other place . No phone contact or the physical address was on the booking information. Was vey luck that someone helped us to find the place. Too far to walk from the train station.

The staff was able to quickly accommodate a shift in my lodging schedule and were extremely courteous and professional.

Quiet hotel, good sleep. Friendly staff.

The hotel is clean and comfortable. It is, however, quite remote, lacks liveliness and feels chilly.

Excellent hotel for short and long stays near Paris Saclay Univeristy.

Good value for cost. My room was very spacious, but I will note that it was very chilly -- I assume they are keeping the heating low right now due to the current energy problems in Europe. The room included a kitchen with plenty of cookware which makes it a good place for longer stays. There are a few grocery items for purchase in the lobby, and they also have a daily breakfast that you can add-on (I think it was 15 Euros per day) which had coffee and juice, pastries, eggs, yogurt, cheese and bread, fruit, cereal. I wish the breakfast had more hot meal options, but for me, it was still worth it since the place is a little far from any restaurants (~15-20 minute walk down the hill). Walking down the hill to the main village area is easy, but going north, up the hill, is harder. I was headed to the CEA Paris-Saclay and had to go up many stairs through a forest. The location of this residence is most useful if you have a car. Lastly, the front desk staff were great, I really appreciate them going above and beyond to help me out.

A very clean set of rooms with everything that you could need in a very convenient place near to the university. It’s a good half hour walk into the village but not a difficult one. The walk to the university is up a very steep hill - you’ll be very fit once you’ve done it a few times!

Small room was a bit tight for two people. Some bathroom facitilies needed repair (leaks around the sub).

On its own, this was a a very pleasant hotel. The rooms are nice and clean and are basically small apartments with kitchenettes, so are suitable for longer stays when you might want to store some food and do some cooking. Also, the breakfast is somewhat small but still nice. The main disadvantage of the hotel was its location. This is a very quiet area near the university campus, but outside of business hours the area is dead. The nearest restaurants are about half an hour's walk away and most most of the walking routes require taking non-illuminated paths for at least some sections. The vicinity to the university is nice, but the location is cumbersome when going out for dinner in particular.

Great place for all types of travellers. Great facilities in the room. Since it is a "Residhome" the room is not serviced every day, but about once a week, but cleaning supplies are provided. It is a good compromise for the price and location. Walking distance to the train and centre of town.

The room is large enough and has all the amenities. It Is not luxurious but very cleaned and quite spacious.

Nice hotel for hikers, otherwise access to city center is not quite easy without a car. The shuttles are available only in the morning on weekdays.

The hotel is in a rural area, there were no close cafes, shops or restaurants. Tried to order food from the menu's in the room, first place called didn't speak any English, limited choices, it was ok for just the night but wouldn't want to do a multiple night stay. There wasn't any wash clothes, just hand towels and bath towels, wonder if its a French thing not to use wash clothes....

Location was fantastic--close to the University of Paris-Sud, walking distance from Bures-sur-Yvette RER station, in a very quiet, attractive spot. The room was well-furnished room with a good desk to work at, excellent bathroom with some nice features like a towel warmer. The bed was a fold-out sofa and slightly uncomfortable, but still good enough for a good night's sleep for a few nights. I'd highly recommend staying here!

Did'nt realise our room would not be serviced at all - while staying for 6 nights - we were not willing to pay extra for cleaning - so didn't like having to ask for toilet rolls and black bin bags - kitchenette was useful but crockery pans etc were very sparse - reception was very helpful though - village not really within walking distance - an interesting experience - but wouldn't go back

We booked A 2 bedroom apartment but were given a 1 bedroom apartment with no compensation. The hotel advertised free parking - there was no parking available! The apartment was nice but it wasn't a 2 bedroom - so we were not very happy.

I had a pleasant stay there. The only complain about the hotel is its location. Although the hotel provides free shuttle service to the RER station daily, it's limited to only in the morning.
