Hôtel Bristol Nord

Excelent place! I enjoyed a lot being there! Rooms are clean, staff is super friendly. Rooms are in excellent conditions, they have 1 bathroom, 1 big bed, 1 desk and chair and even 1 closet space. I had a hair dryer in the bathroom. I also had a fan which came in very handy at night for the 35 ºC weather in Paris! You get clean towels daily. It is super close to both Gare de l'est and Gare du Nord. Also they took care of my luggage the last day with no cost :) I'll come back here everytime in Paris! I really enjoyed my time here.

The hotel is quaint, very bohemian feel to the area, I've seen some harsh reviews but it's got to do more with the ownership not marketing the property to the right audience. Best hotel in the area for the pricing, the staff was helpful and delightful, the area is safe and there's a diverse community around. My family and I were out late and never felt in danger, the hotel room was modest but that added to the feel of the locale. The breakfast was great, croissants and baguettes, delicious marmalade and cheese. Cereals for those in a rush, and coffees made to your liking. It felt like an authentic non tourist Parisian experience. Every day people stayed at the small hotel during this time, not obnoxious loud tourists, every single one of them greeted me and my family members. Very glad I found this hidden gem.

The room was as shown in the pictures. We had a balcony that I didn't know was an option. Unfortunately it is on the corner and we were advised to not go out after dark and to not go down the one side of the building due to the thugs that were hanging around out there and were known to pick pocket. They advised that we were better to go walking during the day or if we were going t go out to not go down that one side of the building. So we just enjoyed the view from the balcony. The front desk was great, very knowledgeable and helpful. They carried our stuff upstairs and downstairs for us. Breakfast was great. They even held our luggage while we walked around the next day before we left to go to our next destination. They even told us about the BOLT app that was cheaper to use then Uber. He made sure that when they showed up that it was the right one since it was a busy area. Within walking distance to the Eurostar terminal. Very clean and nice and quiet at night. Would definitely stay at again.
