Hotel Saint Georges Lafayette

I’m going to start with the good and end with the bad. From the outside the hotel looks very nice and the room are a alright size and were very well cleaned everyday by the cleaners which I was very happy with. The location is what sells this hotel where the basilica is just above on the hill with very nice traditional french restaurants. Small shops and bakery’s on the hill going down into the heart of Paris and a metro station right near by. Bad - most of the receptionists were helpful but a few were constantly grumpy and seemed like they hated any interaction with guests. The bed was two singles pushed up against each other that came away from eachother constantly. The pillows Were rock solid. Toilet seat was not connected to the toilet itself. Worst part was the walls and doors were paper thin. Had a Asian couple next door and I could literally hear everything they did every second I was in my room, it was horrible. Lost loads of sleep because of it. They defiantly need to work on the noise reduction. Overall a nice hotel that didn’t overly ruin my romantic holiday to Paris. Few things definitely need addressing but at the end of the day it’s a fairly cheap hotel for Paris and only 2 star which I definitely say is the fitting star rating for this hotel

The hotel is about 15-20 minutes' walk (with a trolley suitcase) from Gare du Nord and Gare de l'Est. It is also very close (about 5 minutes) to several Metro stations. Plenty of restaurants and, again within reasonably walking distance from Montmartre. The staff at the reception was extremely polite and friendly (speaking not only excellent English but also very good Italian, something which I appreciated). The room was large, comfortable and clean. The following morning the breakfast was freshly made and a good start of the day. The area around has plenty of nice shops and places to eat good food and is both very close to the... colourful Pigalle area and to the Montmartre hill (about 15 minutes' walk, though uphill, but it is worth it). Just a couple of tips, but they are not meant as criticism: first, the wi-fi at times did not work too well and, secondly, if they installed small safes (as most hotels do) in the rooms, it would be an added bonus (as guests would have a place where to leave their valuables and id documents... normally one can leave them at the hotels' reception, but I always found having your own safe in your room a very nice touch). The price was very convenient and I found it a very nice place to stay.

Great hotel, near metro station

Clean quiet hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Many varied dining choices close by at local restaurants and bars. Handy to Pigalle Metro station and just a short Uber ride from Gare du Nord station to connect with international trains.
