New Hôtel Gare Du Nord, Paris

3.7 / 5 Nicola [Slough, GB] on 17/11/2009 (Group of work colleagues)

Hotel Staff were great - Very friendly and helpful! Conveniently located near the station and metro. Room adequate and suited our basic needs.

Noise level of the streets can be heard from your bedroom, so battled to fall asleep, especially on the Friday night. Pillows on the beds were small/flat. Furniture and bedding a bit dated, but that's to be expected from a 2 star. Area not the greatest.

Overall: Enjoyed our stay at this hotel. Although a tad dated on the bedding and furniture side, this hotel suited our weekend stay totally. Nothing fancy just the absolute necessities. Just a quick walk over the road to Gare Du Nord Station and the Metro is literally around the corner, which was very convenient. Hotel staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The local area is not the best, but ok. Not that you will be hanging around there any way when Paris city centre is just a quick 10 min Metro ride away for just €1.60!  (108635763)

The location. Right in front of Gare Du Nord & metro stations. Lots of cafes & restaurants nearby. We booked a triple & it was large. We'd return late every night after dinner in the city and we felt safe.

Some people might not like the noise coming from the nearby cafes. Then we'd advise to close the windows to block out the noise.

Fleas in the bed

Overall: After two hours I woke up with a swollen forehead, itchy neck and swollen areas where I had been bitten on my arms and back. I could see the little black insects crawling on my pillow and sheets. Squashed several and blood stains over the pillow - my first experience of sleeping with fleas. Went to reception - who gave me a key to another room. My travel companion said her bed was ok so I ended up sharing that double bed. I told the receptionist I would only pay for one bed - he had my credit card details as I booked over the internet and said he would take full payment and inform the manager. If they thoguht there was a problem they would contact me. No contact, no refund. I told him I would put a review on this site and he said that was ok - so here it is.  (107480120)
