Babel Belleville

Staff was helpful

Nice

I loved my stay at Babel, and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a charming spot in Belleville. It downhill and just around the corner from an artisan Boulangerie that had ancient grains breads and world class pain a chocolat and pastries. If you wandered further up hill on the back streets there were so many little charming shops and coffee shops. I had some of my most whimsical and grounded days in Paris wandering these streets in Belleville. Babel is also steps away from a market on the weekends, rows and rows of fresh produce, protein, and seafood and the metro. What made Babel special was not only the location but the staff. I really enjoyed getting to interact with them, Mohamed, Siba, David, Stefano, Noah, Yumbi, Malka, were wonderful and all helped me in various ways-- whether it was making sure I hard warm cream for my coffee, or Siba helping me get checked in early, calling and Uber for me when I needed help, and holding my room for me while I dealt with a personal emergency-- they were personable and warm, and I very much appreciated them. Noah and Yumbi made delicious drinks and helped me when I lost my purse in the city. I was very, very blessed to stay here, and would give them a 10/10.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful little boutique hotel. The hotel itself was stunning, full of charm and character, but what truly made the experience so special was the staff. They were incredible from the moment we checked in and made every evening feel so welcoming and relaxed. I stayed here with my parents whilst running the Paris Marathon, and the team were genuinely excited and supportive throughout the trip. They even gave me a lovely little gift to write my times and memories in, which was such a thoughtful touch. I would highly recommend staying here if you’re looking for somewhere unique, personal, and full of warmth. It was a truly memorable stay and such a special place to experience Paris from.
