ibis budget Paris Porte de Montmartre

We arrived after a late flight into Paris at approx 11pm and due to the late hour decided not to tackle the metro and get a taxi to the hotel. Thank goodness we did! When the taxi pulled down into the street the hotel is located on, the street was full of what we assumed to be homeless people (later confirmed by taxi driver) and a ridiculous amount of rubbish. The area was incredibly dirty, the people walked out towards the taxi in an intimidating manner. It was evident this wasn’t a good area to stay. As 2 young females, we would not have felt safe staying within this area and really want to highlight this to all others planning a trip to Paris. The hotel itself was mediocre. The room clean, bed comfy, toilet was in a strange cupboard like room, shower in a separate ‘cupboard’ and the sink at the opposite end of the room. The walls were paper thin… we heard too much of the couples next door. Thank goodness for ear plugs! Thankfully we were in a position whereby we could book another hotel and did so within 20 minutes of arriving at this hotel. The next day whilst making our way to the metro station was a nerve wracking walk. We didn’t see a female for ages and the men around didn’t hide their glares. Please please, female holiday makers do not stay here!!

The hotel is far from Montmartre, the room is too small, the beds D's are really hard and not as good as in the photos. Not really worth it, for a bit more or the same price you can get something nearest and better worth it.

I stayed here in June 2022 for 4 days, Room and bed was clean, but the carpets in hallway were having bad smell and Bathrooms also had bad smell, the bathroom fittings need replacement. There is no AC in such hot weather and we were asked to keep window open and get fresh air. Also there is no intercom, for any query we had to go down from 8th floor. We can't go out without breakfast so we booked in breakfast as it was mention on their sight hot breakfast, but they only provided croissant (not that great) and toast and coffee machine was giving the worst coffee I had in my life. Atleast you provide boiled eggs

I made a reservation for a weekend in November, almost 7 months before the hotel stay. The stay coincided with the weekend of the Champions League final, this hotel is relatively close to the soccer stadium, in April I was informed that I would be transferred to another hotel located at the other end of Paris, 1 hour by metro. When I arrived at the other hotel, they demanded 82 euros (even though they had told me beforehand that I should not pay anything more). The hotel said it was closed and that is the reason for the hotel transfer, the reality is that the rooms were probably resold to Liverpool and Real Madrid fans for much more money and I was transferred to another hotel. The hotel as I assumed and verified during that weekend was not closed, and clients were coming in and out of that hotel. Be aware of this situation in important events because they can relocate you without power of decision.

We arrived at 630am and the reception allowed us to do an early check in for 10euros extra. Paris is an expensive city. This hotel was pretty decent. The room was small but livable. They had comfy beds, a good TV, clean showers and toilet with good water pressure. I think the rooms were pretty sound-proof. You will have to walk a bit.
