The hotel's location is excellent- close to Gare du Nord and close to a metro station, which is line 7 covering major tourist spots. The reception ladies were always helpful and nice. The room was tidy, spacious and clean. We requested a double room with one extra bed ( we had 3 people in total) and we had plenty of room to put our bulky luggage and walk around. I emailed the hotel a few times for some enquiries and always got speedy replies. There's a restaurant around the corner called Albion which offers awesome wines and contemporary French cuisine at a reasonable price. I would say the place would be perfect if it was not located in a backstreet, where stores and offices put large rubbish bins for collection.
