Hotel Brady – Gare de l’Est

The hotel location is terrible and the outside of the building was disaster (covered with graffiti and the neighbourhood is scary). Also, there was a weird smell and unexpected atmosphere at the entrance. It was a very bad choice for us. Apparently the air quality is very low and not suitable for asthmatic people.

Area doesn’t feel as safe as I would have liked but that is on me for not researching as much. I booked the single room but got upgraded. However the room was super dark as the only window faced an internal courtyard and all the furnishings were darker tones. Shower was tiny and would suggest most people would struggle.

Decent ‘bang for the buck’, but it’s incredibly small and it’s in a bit of a rundown neighbourhood - until you get a block and a half away. Day staff is amazing; night staff not so much. Breakfast was excellent! Overall, it would have been a much better experience if the room was bigger.

Room was small but well laid out. Bed super comfortable, quiet air conditioning and an amazing shower

The bathroom door lock was broken when i checked in, and the air conditioning temp always at 28 degrees when heat wave, can’t sleep at night for the whole trip. After cleaning, the cleaner forgot to change clean towels, and i found some ants in the room and my bed. but be fair, staffs all are nice ahd polite.

Room had cold A/c and an incredibly comfortable bed. Friendly staff! Would stay again.

The staff were very friendly, welcoming and helpful. Our initial room (booked a superior) was very small and claustrophobic. When we spoke to the team, we were offered a much larger room which we switched to from the 2nd night and this room was very good. The air conditioning and naturally sheltered aspect of the room was very welcome during the exceptionally hot weather (40+ degrees). The only slight downside was the location which whilst it worked for us in terms of sightseeing (on foot) did have groups of men (of all ages) hanging around, with some drinking, and whilst there were no specific incidents, it could feel a little intimidating to walk through or past the groups and this was a regular occurrence, each afternoon and evening. Other than that we had a great stay overall, Paris is beautiful and the vast majority of the locals are just great. It was our second trip to Paris and we’d recommend it for a city break. Thank you to all at Hotel Brady.

Very Clean and Great Staff!

Great located, great elevator, AIR CONDITION!!! YES!!! Bathroom small, but enough. Had the tray in the shower for my own shampoo+. My room had no windows, but is wasn't missed. Again... AC! Staff were great! Hotel is cute and great breakfast. Great location! Laundry near by.

Our stay at Hotel Brady was pretty good. Decent hotel at reasonable pricing.

Chambre propre et personnel aimable et serviable.

The hotel was an amazing little oasis in the middle of the Gare de l’Est area. The check in process was really smooth and we were able to safely store our luggage until the room was ready. Highly recommend this hotel as a solid base for a budget-friendly stopover in Paris.

The rooms and hotel are very clean and the breakfast was very good.

Lovely hotel, clean room, super friendly staff. Arrived early before checkin and fortunately our room was ready so allowed to check in early. Also kept bags safe after checkout. Just to note when leaving metro better to go to Strasbourg and approach the hotel that way (in front of KFC) rather

Nicest staff of our whole trip though. Good breakfast. Fun area. Small rooms, be warned! We were traveling with a kid and instruments so it was a bit of a mess fitting in the rooms and getting through the many doors in the hallways.

Lovely hotel and great location easy to walk everywhere. Hotel staff really helpful. Would stay again

My plan was to park outside the city then train in but its too far a walk with that much luggage and small child. We decide to drive to hotel and unload the car then park at Gare de l'Est which was 82€ for Saturday/Sunday. Hotel gave a few recommendations but don't list prices. We arrived at 1am so I went with the easiest option. The area looks scary. Lots of graffiti and men standing around in groups in front of closed store fronts. I am a female and walked at 1am from the train station to the hotel. It took 8 minutes. I was scared but no one messed with me. There were several open restaurants along the walk so even though I was scared it was safe.

Very friendly, helpful staff
