ibis Paris Gare du Nord La Fayette 10ème

Impossible to get a good night sleep due to the noise of the elevator machinery. Every time the elevator runs, a rumbling noise wakes you up. Reception was aware but couldn't move me to another room. Would avoid staying there until they fix their faulty elevator.

hotel was ok. air con didn't work, had to open window at nite, often waiting for one single lift. hotel located quite near gare du nord, monmartre, nucelish restos nearby, metro 300 yds to go. personal quite busy. beverages very expensive, but everywhere in Paris. Would book hotel again!

I requested a twin room over two months in advance. We were not informed nor were we given a twin room. Faulty bathroom door room 604 : When we closed the bathroom door we were unable to open it from inside and when we informed of this, our request was not taken seriously. I spoke to the lady manager at the reception and tried to come to a solution. We were offered a another room on the last day on our way out to a tour. We were even charged for the bill xtra coffee we had € 2/coffee Customer service can be improved for sure!

Great hotel with friendly helpful staff. Breakfast choices good. Small quiet garden, unexpected but very pleasant, Short walk from Gare du Nord or Gare de l’est. My room overlooked the walled garden and was very quiet.

Stayed here for 3 nights in a twin room. On the plus side very near to Gare Du Nord for those arriving by Eurostar. Conveniently located for cafes and restaurants towards Montmartre too. Just left out of the hotel is Riviera Brasserie which is very nuce too. On the corner of Rue de Lafayette and Magenta is a small Aldi and nearer is a small Monop convenience store that's open late. The Staff we found unfailingly helpful, filling up water bottles and providing ice. The room was clean and the shower powerful and hot. The room was cleaned every day and fresh towels given. There is shower body wash provided too. Despite my initial dismay over the airblower hairdryer in the bathroom, it was actually powerful and not too hot. Irons and ironing boards are available on request. Reading other reviews I had intended to ask for a garden view room on checkin. But I forgot after a long journey and then thought how bad can it be as I sleep with ear plugs anyway. How wrong I was, it was like trying to sleep on the M1 motorway! The aircon was actually a warm air blower no matter how far down you turned it and we were lucky to have warm weather. But the window only opened 2 inches qnd rhe noise was unbearable despite it being midweek. Luckily after a sleepless hot night I asked the very kind Receptionist Antionette if we could please move to a garden view room and despite it being very busy she found us one. The difference was huge! We could open the window and no street noise at all! I did find it strange that there was no kettle in the room as its such a basic thing? I would stay again but only in a garden facing room and not in Summer, Spring heat was just about bearable!
