NH Paris Gare De l'Est

Great location being by the train and major transport, even kids had fun taking the underground. If you know that going in, you know it may come with outside noise the hotel cannot control. Even still, it is charming to sleep with the windows open and hear the true sounds of Paris. Staff was great but never had any issues that needed their attention. Just a late night water, and they attended to it right away. For US people, it has an elevator so that is a huge plus! We had a wonderful stay. Some of the best pastry and bread can be found just walking distance down the road. Local good places!

Convenient location across the gare

Nice, clean hotel that did exactly what I needed - gave me a shower, a comfy bed, and a place to grab a drink or two after a long day of touristing. I got in super late at night during the May heatwave after a long day of travel and was so thankful for an air-conditioned property and staff that spoke English (my French stopped working after it hit +27 and 60% humidity). The room was quite small, but since it was my first time in Paris, I don't know how unusual that is. It was clean and cozy, and had A/C - although it struggled to keep up, it took the edge off the heat and I can't imagine not having it at all. The lobby and bar area are clean, refreshed, and very nice, but you definitely feel the age of the building once you get on the room floors. I'm a big walker when travelling, so I found the location to be convenient enough. Overall, decent stay at a very reasonable price.

Great hotel. Very convenient to public transport. Room size is very decent for Paris. All the amenities in the room that you would need. The only one thing I didn't like was the overpowering scent in the lobby. Apart from the health concerns of artifical scents, it was impossible to enjoy the lobby space. A shame because it looked very nice.
