Novotel Paris Porte de Versailles

The hotel was quite easy to get to from CDG airport- take RER B and either the tram or the Metro to Porto de Versailles. The hotel is about 7 -10 minute walk from the Metro or the Tram stop. The check in process was fairly quick, our room was ready so we didn't have to wait until check in time. Adam was quite helpful. The room was located on the 7th floor, it was a bit small for an executive suite, but it was clean, the bed was quite comfortable, there were two types of pillows- soft and firm, so you can choose one to your liking. The room got a bit warm at night, the air-con wasn't great but it worked. We did not notify reception because it was really not that big a deal. The windows can be opened. There are only French channels on the telly, which may be a bit obvious to note but some hotels in other countries have English movie channel options. The Netflix casting connection did not work. A little note about the toilet- it's a glass door which doesn't fully close, by design. Things can get a bit intimate haha. There is a rooftop bar and restaurant. It's open until 2pm for lunch so bear that in mind. After that the restaurant closes until evening time. Ease of access to Eiffel Tower etc: Get the Metro 12 which is a 7 min walk from the hotel and change at Pasteur for the M6, then get off at Bir-Hakeim and walk to the Tower. About a 9min walk. There may be another way of course but that's the route we took. Have fun!

I had read so many reviews about hotels in Paris that said the rooms were small, that I was surprised at how big the rooms were here! Lots of room to spread out and there was even a couch that could be used as another sleeping area. The gym on the top floor is well equipped and has a great view! Also, if you are a light sleeper, this is the hotel for you- it is super quiet and dark at night.

Great modern hotel for the price we paid. Was clean and spacious. Nice Rituals toiletries included. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Right on the Metro line with easy access into Paris. Paid extra for an early check in which was accommodated. Can’t comment on the breakfast because we mostly ate at cafès in the area. Would stay again.

A modern hotel near the Expo with great service and value of money. Rooms are clean and spacious and there is a roof bar and restaurant in the last floor. Breakfast was very good and the reception staff very friendly and Willy to assist on every matter.

Sadly enough, we couldn't use our shower for two days (drain was clogged). Funny, thing is we had that in april this year as well at another Novotel (reaction in the morning than was oh you had that room!), said something about it but never heard back. So to have that again in a Novotel. Was a bit disappointing. Asked after the first night if they could fix the drainage, which they said they would do. In the assumption it would be fixed, only to found out the next morning that showering still wasn't possible. The Technician wasn't in the day before (no one told us)! So for two days we couldn't use the shower properly. And meanwhile it was 35-40 degrees in the city.
