Novotel Paris Les Halles

Apart from the renovation, the hotel is clean, room quiet, staff friendly, good price for location, centrally located close to multiple transportation options! Would recommend

This is a great area to stay in Paris! You can walk to many attractions or easily hop on the subway. We will definitely stay here again!

Room was clean and spacious. Breakfast was great with lots of choices and delicious croissants.

GOOD: Staff were courtesy, helpful, and professional. Location very central. Only 10 minute walk to Louvre. A boulangerie and little supermarket only 50 meters from the main entrance. Metro entrance only 20 meters away. BAD: Rooms are in bad shape. The carpet is the worst I've ever seen in any hotel room of any level. NO slippers were provided by the hotel too. The cabinetry that holds the safebox has the laminate peeled off so that the particle board underneath is exposed. The door hinge is bent out of shape too. For a room that's supposed to house 4 people, the amenities were sparse. Only 2 rolls of toilet paper per day (we ended up using up both rolls in less than a day). So we had to constantly request more rolls. The mini-fridge is fully stocked with pricy drinks, leaving no room for our own drinks. The hallways are dark, dingy, with exposed wires (this can NOT be to building code standards in Paris or any other city). Even the carpeting in the hallway have areas that are cut away, exposing the wood subflooring underneath. Breakfast was okay. But the 4 coffee machines were inadequate. Always a line, and at least one of the machines were not working properly or there weren't enough coffee beans in the hopper to make a full cup of espresso. Also, the self-serve open jars of jam/marmelade/Nutella next to the breads were covered with flies everyday and there were no attempts to rid them. Needless to say, we never used these. Will never stay here again.

Fantastic location but the hotel is currently undergoing major renovation meaning that they are missing a lot of the amenities that you would expect - bar, shop, etc. Large area of the hotel is boarded off and there is constant construction noise, etc. Frankly, I would have expected a discount on the usual rate due to these inconveniences. Staff were very good though.

Great location but no notive Hotel was under renovation. Very uncomfortable to have workers outside your door painting and doing other work. Specially with a little kid. I wished I had been notified, because it was a bit uncomfortable.

Great Brekky, great friendly staff and the popcorn in the afternoons was a special treat that we looked forward to every day.

Breakfast was busy, they kept our towels fresh, staff was nice overall

Very helpful staff!

The staff was great. Very professional and courteous. Hotel has a very good location, in the heart of first arrondisement.

A very nice hotel that is convenient for travel, with its proximity to the Chatelet-Les Halles station.

The hotel was very clean. Clean linens and shower. The staff was very helpful and stored our luggage on our check-out day. The location is right in the middle of a very active restaurant scene and is right off the metro. Would stay here again.

Beautiful hotel with metro hub directly underneath. Patisserie and restaurants just next door. Easy walk to Notre Dame, the Louvre, and Marais.

Good breakfast but very crowded at busy times (Easter weekend though!) The room was spacious, comfortable and clean and the location is excellent. There are, however, extensive renovations happening. The “corridor” to the dining room is awful and the drilling was loud (this is confined to specific times and not too early.) The biggest issue was that there was no name on the hoarding surrounding the hotel, so it took us ages to find it! Totally avoidable first impression. We would definitely return once work is completed but not at the moment.

Amazing location for metro!

Good location, clean, and nice desk people

We went in the middle of a refurb, very basic space. Great location for getting around and plenty of stuff near by

The hotel’s condition was noticeably below expectations. The property appears quite worn, with carpets that are significantly aged—more so than what I’ve encountered in hotels of far lesser stated quality. Given the price point, the overall state of the facilities was surprising and difficult to justify. Breakfast, which we only attempted once, was particularly disappointing. Despite being included, the experience felt chaotic and poorly managed. Food items were frequently empty, and it was challenging to find staff available to replenish them. The breakfast area itself was extremely crowded, making it difficult to enjoy the meal at all. While the inclusion of breakfast is appreciated in theory, in practice it did not meet even basic expectations since we had to go buy food at a nearby cafe when staff were too busy to replenish breakfast items after a considerable wait.

Wonderful access to Paris!

I was looking for a good deal on a great location for this stay, so it was a delight to get there and find the hotel to be top notch. The staff members were professional, helpful, and friendly, abd the room was a lovely place to crash between outings. The popcorn in the lobby and generally friendly atmosphere enhanced the experience for the whole family.
