"Close to public transportation but little privacy in the room"
24th April 2012, daveia536, Montreal, Quebec, Canada
Pros: Clean room with a modern design, internet accessible from the room, coffee and snack distributors available in the lobby if needs be. Located close to a metro station, to a tram line, to the a train station, to pharmacies, multiple coffee shops/restaurants, and grocery stores. About a 30min metro ride from most attractions (e.g Louvre museum).Cons: Very small room. Located right next to a large highway, therefore there is a constant background noise at night which may affect sleep quality. Rooms are designed for couples, with little privacy if you're travelling with a friend or family member. For example, the bathroom door was a thin panel 6in above the floor and 6in below the ceiling that did not have a doorknob (more like a cupboard or wardrobe door with no latch to keep it from opening once closed...). Also, the shower was not in a seperate room, but rather next to the bed, with nothing else that a glass shower door frosted from knee to shoulder to prevent the other person from seeing you...
"Good price but small rooms"

The price for the hotel is OK, but the room is very small.Wifi connection is down for two whole days during my 5 days stay.
"Very good quality / price"
30th January 2012, Ramonville Saint Agne, France
Hotel very well located with few steps to the Metro station. I had the chance to have a renovated room, very clean & more spacious than the average of the other ETAP hotels. If you are on a tight budget, this hotel offers a good quality for an excellent price
"Finding the Hotel"
7th October 2011, Basingstoke, United Kingdom
This ETAP is a bit hidden from view from the Metro, it is attached to the Novotel which is more visible. The room was very clean and the shower was so clean it looked new. There are no tea or coffee making facilities in the room, a kettle and cups would have been helpful. Beverages after breakfast are via expensive vending machines or local shopping, restaurants.
"good value for money, poor service"
4th October 2011, Loughborough, United Kingdom
no hot water and staff was unhelpful. night shift staff barely speak english. room was dirty and quite stinky.but you can't ask for more on this price, access to public transport is quite convenient (<5mins walk), some good restaurant around.
"Wifi and Air cond."
2nd August 2011, Dubai
The location is good, the free wifi offered in the room is fantastic! however the Air condioning in the room is far too cold!(to my taste anyway). According to the front desk it cannot be switch off, and the radiator in the room wasn't working either, apparantly turn off in Summer but summer in Paris can be quite cold!.. what a shame...Otherwise nice hotel and extra blanket are available on request at the recpetion.
"4 nights in Paris"
26th July 2011, pfh_1964, Newquay, United Kingdom
OK Hotel, does what it says for the Price. Very close to Paris whitout the crazyness of hotel price in Paris.Gentle staff. Good breakfast. Easy to park on the area (summer only) Slight smoke smell in a non smoking room .
"Comfortable and clean."
23rd July 2011, Leeds
This hotel has the new style rooms which are very simplistic but well designed to give comfort for a cheap price. Good shower, very clean throughout, helpful staff, don't really have anything to complain about.Only slight thing that means it only gets 4 stars is the fact that the windows can't be opened or the air conditioning be altered. This means the room can get a bit stuffy at times, leaving you to feel slighly helpless. Otherwise great hotel for the price and would visit again.
"Great value for money: very good location, clean and modern rooms!"
8th July 2011, Prague
I stayed in this hotel with my partner for 3 nights and we had absolutely no prob with anything regarding rooms, service, location. It's true that we left the hotel in the morning (9-11am) and came back later in the evening every day so basically we used the room for sleeping most of the time but there was no noise at night or in the morning. You'll get a code to unlock the room, not a key.High-speed wifi internet access, TV, rooms are smaller but clean, modern and efficiently arranged, window is locked - there is automatically regulated ventilation/air-conditioning - at first I considered it a problem we couldn't open the window but then the ventilation was enough. Just be careful, the double room is really suitable for a single person or a couple as they say on the website (you can book a room there):www.etaphotel.com/gb/hotel-2559-etap-hotel-paris-porte-d-orleans/index.shtmlas the shower and the toilet are not separated by walls but only by the door, the shower is built-in right next to the bed. About 5min walk to the metro station Porte d'Orleans, two supermarkets are 10min walk, one of them is Carrefour, open daily. Shopping centres are closed on Sunday (I couldn't believe it! ;) but Carrousel du Louvre was open but there are only a few shops).
"Not a Fabulous Experience"
30th June 2011, Springwood, Australia
This is a kind of formula 1 style hotel. I knew when booking it that it would be basic but the rooms were really small. The beds were a foam mattress on plywood base. Not very comfortable. We hardly had enough room for our bags. The shower was good and it did have free unlimited wifii which was great. The area is ok. We choose it because we were hiring a car to drive to the south of France but it seemed a bit seedy and was a long way out of Paris central. The streets smelt of urine. On the positive the hotel staff were reasonably helpful....but not overly. The breakfast was ok....pastries, tub yoghurt, hot drinks, lots of bread and cake....this felt more like a hostel than a hotel. There were a lot of young school excursion groups staying here. We did have a view of the Eiffel tower from out 5th Floor window. The under part of the sink was broken and the sheets had issue residue from them....It was reasonably priced at 98 euro per night but I think we could have done a lot better......There were a few places to eat but the feel of the town was not welcoming. One last thing...if you intend to hire a car from Europe car think again...especially from this office. The man was very unhelpful rude and gave us a really bad car that ended up being dangerous....tyre burst and windscreen wiper feel off. he also did not return my passport or drivers licence and made no attempt to contact me until a few days later I found out it was missing.....dodgey with a capital D. Porte D'Orleans Europecar is located in this hotel.
"Nice time in Paris"
12th June 2011, basel
The hotel has an acceptable location in Paris, at least it is safe compared with some regions of Paris. You could just walk for several minutes to reach the bus/tram/metro station, so it is convenient to travel around Paris. The room is very quiet.
"mixed bag"
10th June 2011, shimself, Sete, France
the location is fine, 5 minutes walk to the metro (Porte d'Orleans) and a 5minute ride to city centre. Receptionist friendly, all was clean, quiet.. A typical low cost zero frills place.the bad newsfire door left jammed openno shampoo/shower gel (there was soap)the bed was insanely hard (the mattress)
"Vacations"
12th February 2011, Paris
The place was very good because the metro line was very comfortable it has connection with every monument that we want to visit and see bad the room weren't so good we would like to have a wardrobe, a mini fridge and more silence in our room!!! and the receptionist has made a mistake and gave our secret number of our room to two men and they came in night to get in to our room and they open the door of our room and my mother was alone in the room i was in the lobby to buy a water and she scared and then get upset with this think that happend!!! It will be better the staff being more carefull this thinks!!!
