ibis budget Paris Porte de Vanves 2 stars

Whilst Ibis Styles hotels are mostly overhauled old fashioned hotels, Ibis Budget is offering a good concept with simple but comfortable rooms and a concept that is everywhere the same. Value for money and-unlike many French hotels-things functioning well.

I was welcomed in charming fashion by the delightful female receptionist. The room was fine, except for the leaking shower door (hence wet floor/luggage) and air conditioning that gave me headaches. The friendly staff, quiet & clean room & fair price made for a decent stay overall.

Overall good and clean hotel except there was no toilet brush .alsof the toilet door had no lock. Did not choose breakfast but looked good.

I would like to write about our complications during our 5-nights stay in the Ibis budget hotel. The upper bed was not prepared on our arrival. On the second day one blanket was changed. On the next day the blanket was removed from the room at all. So only one blanket left for 3 persons. Ventilation didn't work neither in the bedroom nor in the bathroom. It worked in the first 2 days but broke later. We notified a receptionist but no action followed. Air was very stale and hot. The window was locked therefore we could not open it. And the strange thing connected to the pollution: every day we became a new unopened soap and the opened one was removed. Thank you for your attention

clean hotel, very well situated for Parc des Expositions, very friendly personnel

A big group arrived at midnight in the middle of the week, they were very noisy (shouting in corridor, slamming doors...) for more than 2 hours and nobody intervened. Had to get out of my room several time without success. It lasted up to 2.30am!!! The handling of this group was really poor (I know it is not easy but necessary in the middle of the night!)

Positiva

As an American who comes to Paris frequently but who no longer opens a much-missed apartment there, I have come to look upon the Ibis Budget in Vanves as my new Paris home. Five minutes from a convenient Metro station, it offers me reliable accommodations at reasonable-albeit-variable prices. The staff -- especially Anais, the assistant manager -- is always cordial and accommodating, and I know that I can count on a clean and comfortable room, a good bed, a reliable internet connection, and a television that works consistently. Although I speak fluent French, I have noticed that the staff is thoroughly able to accommodate non-French speakers. For a "basic" hotel (alas, there is no ice machine -- but there is a McDonald's next door), this Ibis Budget facility cannot be beat. In contrast, it definitely beats certain other Ibis Budget hotels in the Paris region.

Some 15 years ago, I was running a Paris based company and spent most weeknights at a nearby IBIS in F-75012. The loyalty program at the time was rudimentary at best, thus, despite my very frequent bookings, I never qualified for anything more than a breakfast at best.In late June 2018, I had the occasion to stay at an IBIS after a long time and I was very imprseed with the layout of the room and its setup.Howver, I was disappointed that I did not qualify for any points either.Take care.Yours sincerely,Imy Kassamikassam@compuserve.com+32.472.927.333

We stayed two nights as a family, great to be able to park underground very safe. Also you can walk to the metro in 2mins. Hotel staff helpful and clean room. We would book again the next time we come to Paris.

This was the best Ibis experience for me to date. I was in Paris for an event and was checked in by a wonderful receptionist on late night duty. My room was spotlessly clean, location is so central, and other staff were also friendly and welcoming.

If you don't have troubles sleeping with the roaring of the train (stops 1h30-5h30), this hotel is fair, clean and friendly. The problem is that the smell of the toilet passes to the room because the doors are 20 cm short , and sometime cigaret smell goes through the ventilation... a lesson of tolerance

The gentleman at the reception was very professional and helpful. The rooms were clean and quiet. The location was close to the metro. The McDonald's next to the hotel was also very convenient for us.

Ibis Budget Paris Porte de Vanves is located on a calm area yet very close to the busy Paris and main attraction. Metro station and taxi services are also close. Breakfast is very light, the hotel is very welcoming and quite. We had a nice stay

The place is nice, 5 minutes from the Metro and on top of a McDonald. New building and nice rooms. We were 3 in the room, and had trouble in getting 3 towels the first evening (only 2 in the room). After 2 nights, cleaning services removed towels and only left one towel, and despite promises from reception of quick delivery of 2 more towels, nothing happened. Next afternoon cleaning services had removed sheets from the 3rd bed, and not left new ones. Once more down to reception, receiving apologies about the missing towels the evening before ("Yes, I remember, I did not get around to it") and a new promise of delivery of sheets. This time I stayed with the guy until I got them, not to be forgotten again. Apart from sloppy cleaning services and poor follow up from reception, we had a good stay. But we spent annoying time going back and forth to reception. PS: a tourist book in reception gives good advice on sights to see. One error though: if you are going to Versailles, you have a direct train from the SNCF station 600 m due south (pass the Metro station and go on for another 500 m)
