What we liked: The staff was really helpful in going extra mile and answering any question and providing multiple options even on public transport-related questions. What we would like see to be improved: 1. There is no light outside the main door. We reached around 11 pm ( it was pitch dark ) and could not figure out where is main door was and how to call someone to open the main door. It took some time to find out a small button system before someone opened it. This was our first time to stay in France. 2. There is no towel bar or hook in the bathroom/toilet. We had to keep dry towels and clothes outside the bathroom/toilet while taking a shower. This was not convenient when other family members were staying in the same room. We traveled as 4 member family ( husband, wife, and two teenage daughters. Thanks

A quiet stay
Staff was amazing and super helpful. They helped me for everything, from getting water from the vending machines to ordering a taxi. They were very nice persons. The room was clean and silent. However, a weird noise from the bathroom would disrupt the silence every 5 minutes, which was very annoying. I guess something was broken. I didn't mind because I had good old earplugs, and I am sure the staff would have helped me with that if I needed to. Everything else was really good! The rooms were basic but comfortable.

driving from the direction of northeast (A1 france north highway), this hotel location is very convenient. So it would also be of very short drive to the airport. Though it's said located in one of the worse district (20th), personally i did not find it particularly unsafe. Due to corona the breakfast was no much option, but it was ok. The room is big and clean. Only this hotel is fully fenced, so you need to ring the bell to get in even during the daytime.

basic but very convenient
the room was very basic with only a bed, a few shelves and a chair, but perfectly functional for my needs (a clean, safe and quiet place where to leave the luggage during the day, have a shower and enjoy a quiet sleep at night). Probably not the best place if you plan to spend a lot of time in your room, but if you are going to be outside exploring Paris most of the day it's an excellent choice. The room and private bathroom were spotless. There is a cafeteria-style breakfast included in the room price. It's less than a 10minutes walk from the nearest metro station and there is a tram stop even closer by, so it's easy to reach by public transit.

Functional, but very good. Nice breakfast, comfortable bed, quiet room. I’m lucky enough not to need to use a wheelchair but it seemed accessible to anyone who does. Service was friendly and efficient.

The hotel is a hotel, but it felt like a dormitory to me. The restricted access entrances made me think the area was unsafe but the neighborhood is a quiet residential area.

only stay here if you have to. it is not a hotel - more a hostel. doors that crash shut all night - no soap in bathroom, very basic bed. breakfast very poor with staff very unhelpful and unfriendly.
Response from The Reception on Apr 18, 2018
Sorry you had to experience such a unpleasant situation. Yes, we are not a hotel. It is a residence. Halfway between hotel and hostel. We'll let the catering company know their staff should be more helpful. Best regards,

This is more of a hostel than a hotel
Beds are uncomfortable cots not beds. There is no soap of any kind in the bathroom. No trash cans in the bathroom. The room was extremely hot and there is no wherein the room to adjust the temperature. We attempted to open the windowad the window actually started falling out. Did not feel safeat hotel at all. When we arrived to our hotel it was night time. The streets are very dark and we were locked out of the gates. They do have an intercom system but you cant see it in the dark.

Very dicey, lucky to be alive!
This was a scary place to get to in the night. You were locked in at midnight for the night. No one in and no one out. It felt like an old mental institution or a hostile. I was in a room for 6 people and I only booked a triple. So I dragged an extra twin bed and barricaded the door. The WiFi code was RIP. We thought that was a bad sign. We were ready at 7 am sharp to get the heck out of there when the gate open but grabbed a croissant from the breakfast first. They were quite tasty. The guy at the front desk was nice. We were so happy to get out of this place and Parisk alive!!

Hello, We are really sorry that you feel that way about our hotel. I think that a little bit exagerated and a little dishonest. We are open 24/7 so people can get in and out whenever they want. To get in you just have to ring at the gate and to get out you just have to push a button to open the gate. The WiFi name is RIP because we are the Residence Internationale de Paris. But we are happy that you are alive.

Enough room for a family of 5 to stay comfortably. Nice air conditioner and lovely breakfast. We couldn't figure out if this hotel was for paraolympic athletes. But it had an Olympic theme and most areas seemed handicap accessible.

Great location and coffee machine
This hotel is a metro ride or 2 away from some awesome sights and activists. It was a 5 minute walk and maybe half hour metro ride to the effiel tower. It has good security and a friendly staff. Especially liked that they have vending machines, bunk beds, and great wifi. I will definitely be coming back.

Lovely Place!
The beds were clean and comfy! The bathroom was rather spacious, and the staff was super friendly! I have it a 4 for location because it was about a 20-30 minute drive from sites like the Eiffel Tower and such depending on traffic... To me it's no big deal, but some people prefer instantaneous travel conditions! Should we return to Paris ever we will be rebooking this hotel! Thank you so much! -4 crazy American Girls

Bonne qualité
Cela fait plusieurs fois que je viens à la RIP et la qualité est toujours au rdv. Logement calme. Le petit-déjeuner est inclus dans le prix, et si l'on arrive pas trop tard, il est de bonne qualité et assez varié (contrairement à ce que j'ai pu lire dans d'autres commentaires -- enfin c'est mon avis!).

Beste Preis/Leistung, gute Croissants🤗😋 Merci 🤗
Für mich ist es die Oase zum ausruhen nach einem Tag voll Erlebnisse in Paris. Direkt zu erreichen vom CDG, gute Verbindungen zum City, Einkaufmöglichkeiten rundherum, es ist eine grosse Anlage, gut geführt und mit freundlichem Personal. Optimal eigentlich für eine Familie mit Kinder, weil Parkplatz und Kinderplatz dabei sind.
