Séjours & Affaires Paris Malakoff

My spouse and I stayed at Séjours & Affaires Malakoff for three nights. It was a perfect location with easy access to public transit, including the subway. The centre of Paris is only minutes away, without the nosebleed prices in the heart of Paris. We didn't feel like the location was a compromise and having previously stayed in the heart of Paris on many occasions truly enjoyed the community vibe of Malakoff. As for the hotel itself, it's a mixed bag. On the positive side, staff at the hotel were friendly and very accommodating. Our room had the most comfortable bed; I've stayed in many hotels and for me this was near the top in comfort. The room had a great balcony as well, spacious and inviting where we could sit back and truly enjoy a glass of wine away from the tight surroundings of the room. On the downside, the hotel room was a bit tired, very basic and in definite need of a refresh. It had a bit of a dorm room feel. Although we had a small kitchen area, it wasn't particularly well equipped. Most notable, on our first night there we picked up a bottle of wine, and it being France, was corked. It being France I assumed the room, equipped with a kitchen and wine glasses, would also have a corkscrew. Nope. I went to the front desk which could also not provide me with a corkscrew, nor was one available in the breakfast room. No option left but to go out and buy one. Although the staff was sincerely apologetic, this is more of a management issue in my mind.

Friendly staff and a well-equipped kitchen. An extractor fan in the bathroom would be a welcome addition. Note that air conditioning is not available.

The room in this apartment hotel is spacious for family stay. They have placed a fan in the room for us to stay cool on those heatwave's nights

I can’t say enough about this hotel. It was clean. Staff were super nice. Very helpful. Being predominantly English speaking, it was a smooth interaction with the staff. Perfect location away from the tourists. Convient to the metro that takes you into the heart of Paris. I will definitely stay here again. 5 stars.
