Hotel Palm - Astotel

The property was only about a 12-15 min walk from either Gare de L'Est (where we entered the city) and Gare du Nord (where we left), and about 5 mins from the nearest Metro stop, and it seemed quite a nice, peaceful neighbourhood. The staff were very helpful, providing us with a map of the city that showed where their other hotels are - one bonus of booking with this group is that you can call into any of their other hotels for free soft drinks, which we thought was really nice to have though we didn't actually take advantage of it. You also get a free "mini bar" with soft drinks/bottled water in your room, it's basically just a little fridge which they leave a few drinks in, but that was very handy to have as we put our wine in it too :-) There's a small lift up to the upper floors. The room wasn't huge but it wasn't tiny, not a bad size for a reasonably central location in such a large city, and it was all very clean. The aircon was very effective once it got going, and the water pressure in the shower was OK.

Really good value for money for Paris. My experience is that it's really hard to find acceptable budget stays in Paris. Frankly anything less than a 4 star hotel is usually disgusting and sometimes even those. I payed around 100€ per night here and got a cute and clean room. Small, but still had a comfy bed, a fridge, a desk, a kettle, room to properly hang your clothes and even a small balcony with a view. Downstairs they placed different Teas, croissants, cakes and other snacks for free, there's a fridge with free soft drinks and I think they had coffee too. The receptionist was super friendly. Convenient location close to gare du nord, metro and a bus stop. Ubers always arrive fast too.

An excellent little hotel a short walk from the Metro (Cadet stop). An easy walk (1km) from Gare de Nord and the Eurostar. Breakfast was excellent. Love free the snack table, minibar, and coffee/tea. The hotel is in a smashing location, close to independent shops (cheese, charcuterie, wine), but also within walking distance to Galleries Lafayette, Pompidou, Montmartre, the Tulleries etc. In fact, we walked everywhere, then you don't miss anything! Great little restaurants around the hotel, including Moroccan, Colombian, French (!) and our favourite, the Lebanese just down the road (turn left out of the hotel) Thym Sauvage - excellent food, lovely people, great Lebanese wine. A joy. Will certainly stay at Palm Asthotel again.

Hotel palm was in an excellent location. I do not use the metro and everything was perfectly accessible on foot. The decor is pleasing and I loved the snacks available throughout the day and free mini fridge.

Great location near transport links. 5 min walk to a good metro stop and 15 min walk to Gare du Nord. Excellent room with lovely balcony. Really nicely decorated (like the whole hotel) and very clean. Pleasantly surprised by the room size and the bathroom was great. Mini bar restocked daily and snacks available in the lobby. Lots of power sockets and some usb ports for chargers. Staff very friendly, helpful and polite. They also arranged a lovely gift for our anniversary which was very kind and unexpected. Good facilities and access to those in other Astotel hotels - would definitely stay here again. Great value for money.
