Maison Barbès

My room had a little terrace. Very comfy bed.

Room did not have enough light for my needs. Enough lamps but not very bright. Night clerk was friendly but needs training. Seems he could not read the latin alphabet and claimed there was no tonic water until I pointed it out.

So cute and cozy! Love the vibe.

Rooms are a little small, but this seems normal for Paris

Not too far to walk to from Gare du Nord. Stylish bar / breakfast area and breakfast was decent enough. Staff were friendly. Located at the bottom of Montmartre.

Although the room was stylish it was incredibly dark even when the lights were on and very small. The bathroom was equally as small as was the patio which just looked on to the rather unkempt back wall of the adjoining block of flats. The surrounding streets were quite dirty and at night didn’t feel particularly safe either. It’s not a very attractive area to be in.

it was close to the metro train line and within a reasonable walking distance of the fast train station

The room was super tiny and no where to leave cases so they had to stand upright next to the bed, two people in the room had to be sitting on bed to let other one past for bathroom etc. The coffee cups were small expresso size so you could not make a normal size coffee. The streets outside of the hotel and near the entrance to the metro train station had lots of people selling (illegal?) cigarettes or something in small packets and there were quite a few homeless people living on the streets as well. First day we were told breakfast included but on second day told it was not. The breakfast served at the admin counter and really for the price you pay to stay per night, a continental breakfast shouldn't cost much to provide. Luckily Burger King just next door!
