Hotels Near Les Petroleuses in Paris

I Really liked this hotel: service was good, rooms clean and very Scandinavian style, bed was really comfortable, shower room clean and water pressure good. Wifi worked very well. I usually stay in 4-5 star hotels, but as stayed only one night (opera eve) , and local friend recommended this place, I decided to try it. Location is very Arabic (I think Algerian as road is Rue de roi Algeria) , and everybody so friendly. Metro station approx. 5 min walk (Care du Nord/Eurostar 15 min door to door, not bad= an excellent Metro connection) .As soon as you walk in to this hotel, you have nice and fresh feeling. Lobby/brfst room small but very cosy. Staff service level same standard than 5star deluxe without attitude problems (often snobby in 5 star deluxe) . No lift, room was on third floor. Lovely, Scandinavian style room. I read previous comments about noise outside/ My room (34) was on street side and it was really quiet. If you look budget hotel choice with a good quality , this is definitely worth to try. Rooms are smaller (except my room 34) , but over all, you cannot go wrong with this choice. Management really knows how to supply a good standard 3 star hotel. Will definitely recommend and return to this property! One of the best night sleep I have had a long time! Only minus thing was that no English TV stations at all ( Great large tv)

A gorgeous little hotel within walking distance of the metro. Very friendly staff that met every request and comfortable beds. Got a great night's sleep on both nights and there's loads of very good eateries within walking distance as well as a small supermarket.

We are very well received in the hotel, each speaker is friendly, smiling, considerate, elegantly decorated, up-to-date, the room includes all accessories, easy to stay, breakfast is generous and lush outside and the hostess who changes attentively, the hotel allows you to 24/24 Go out and return at any time, welcome to provide a very impressive service at any time, which has become very rare. Every speaker is concerned about the normal operation of the hotel, and the whole team seems to be united and well coordinated. This makes the stay pleasant and smooth. We often observe catatonia in other places, which is always obvious and uncomfortable, which makes us appreciate the tranquility of the Prince Albert Hotel even more. We will come back and recommend this hotel.

Many reviews talk about it being ”sketchy area”... the hotel is located at the edge of the african/ muslim district. So, a lot of non-white people being their own culture. This is not sketchy. Once you realise the hotel is located in a residential district, not a tourist/hotel district, it all starts to make sense. Walk one direction and you get to the heart of African food, shops and people. Walk the other direction and you get to the bengali area. Bengali (indian) food, shops. Or just around the corner the main high street is full of usual commercial shops you find in any other town or city. If you are scared of culture, anyone not-white or Halal food, then maybe area not for you. But if you don't mind seeing real paris and great cultural food this is a fine location. (There actually are cafes and bars with white people nearby!) Some reviews mention men standing outside hotel at night? That's just the African culture. (See photos) You'll find them anywhere socialising outside their homes. They're not peddling drugs or crime. They're not being scary and nothing to worry about. (I've been to Africa, and it was just the same). Admittedly the area could be cleaner but it's not an issue because 95% of the time You'll be visiting tourist paris, not walking to/from hotel. Hopefully this will put your mind to rest. Low cost hotel in low cost location. Simple. Right between two metro stops (4 mins walk to each) which go all directions to all the main sites and areas. €2.10 for any single journey to anywhere in paris. Perfect. 15 mins walk to the beautiful romantic area of Montmartre which has stunning views all around and also Sacré Coeur. 20 mins walk from the main train station- gard nord and gard est. Also be sure to walk towards ”gard est” train station if you want the main road with all the amazing restaurants!! I totally missed this until the last day. Devastated. So about the hotel- like everyone says Hotel rooms are in need of TLC, room is tiny, no lifts just a long tight spiral staircase. Bathroom is small and shower cubicle tight. Basic room & facilities. --essentially room is simple and functional. But clean and tidy. Sheets are all clean and frrsh. May need to ask for extra pillows though. BUT all that is completely made up by the amazing caring staff. Reception staff, cleaners, caterers. All really lovely, and you can tell it's because the management genuinely cares about everyone. Both their own staff and the customers. Breakfast is actually lovely and filling each day. The manager even offered us extra breakfast food to take along with us for the trip when we mentioned our long day out we planned. Honestly cannot fault the staff at all :) I booked this place solely on one other persons honest straight forward review, and actually they turned out to be completely correct. So I have to do the same! This is a totally acceptable place to stay for friends or adventurous couples as a base for 2-3 nights while visiting P

I am extremely satisfied with my stay at the hotel during my 4 day visit to Paris. the friendly service, the cleanliness, the delicious food, the pleasant atmosphere (nice music, calmness and politeness from Sasha, Patrick, Isabelle and the women who take care of the cleanliness and the delicious breakfast). very convenient location, as well as proximity to a metro station. The staff was very helpful with all my questions about Paris. Regards, Eleonora Ivanova- Bulgaria.

The hotel is in a really nice position very close to the metro station of Jaurès that can get you basically everywhere. The place was clean and there is the chance to leave there your luggage if you come to early for check in or if you need to leave it after check out. That earns the 2 stars in my review. Unfortunately this was probably my worst experience in a hotel. Checking in I was told that we got an upgrade and, instead of our view on the city we got what is supposedly a better room facing an internal wall. I must say that I am not sure if that was really an upgrade because it didn't feel like it - and this makes me wonder what would have been a regular room. Rooms are poorly insulated and I could hear perfectly what was going on in the rooms next to our. The cleaning was good, but unfortunately the cleaning lady forgot to close our door and, when we came back to the hotel in the late afternoon, we found the door open. The only answer we got when we reported the issue was ”oh, that's not good” - indeed it isn't. Growing up in a similar business I have been taught to do what it take to make happy your guests and I found odd that I couldn't get a couple of spoons when I asked for them (”breakfast is closed now so we don't have spoons”). All in all, I wouldn't recommend this hotel. The price doesn't match the service.

The rooms were small but clean. There were small cubes where to save your stuff but not even a carry on would fit there. The private bathrooms were ok but there were no towels to even dry my hands on or to step out the shower afterwards, so everything was a bit wet. Sometimes I could not get it into the common bathrooms for some reason and I know I was not the only one (problems with hostel card) We asked whether they could add us all to the same 4-bed room since we were 3. They said they could and afterwards they did not 'by mistake' so this was a bit disappointing. The place in general was awesome, it was very nice, clean, friendly staff. They also have lockers where to store your luggage if needed. Breakfast was a bit expensive but totally worth it. Location was convenient since there is a metro station just around the corner, so it was pretty easy to move around such a big city. I would probably go again.

My husband and I stayed in a Superior Double Room for two days at the beginning of March. We had a wonderful view of the park and the Eiffel Tower. The room is beautiful to look at, but a little damaged in some parts (for example the shower). The biggest problem of the room was the ventilation system, as it smelled of the drain several times. The cleaner does her job, as she cleans the room daily, but the problem is exclusively ventilation. I might also point out that you can hear the chairs being moved in the bar in the room. I would also suggest that a different choice of breakfast be made every day, as it was the same breakfast twice. However, I would like to conclude by praising the staff, who were friendly at all times.

We stayed at GW for two nights. Montparnasse station and Danfer Rochelow station are about 13 minutes walk. Since the airport bus departing and arriving at Montparnasse station is gone, it is very convenient to be able to go to the airport without changing by RER from Danfer Rochelow station. The subway is about 8 minutes from Gete Station. Since it is a hotel on a big street, the surroundings are bright and you are not afraid to walk at night. Moreover, it is quiet at night. It is convenient because the monoprix grocery store near Montparnasse station is open until 23:40. One of the male staff at the front desk was surprised that he was good at Japanese. In addition, he was very kind. Breakfast is served with baguettes and petit size croissants, pan o chocolate, pan orezan in a basket. The baguette was delicious. Drinks can be served in a pot with coffee, tea or chocolate. Orange juice is also available. Then there are a few kinds of shelves of Financier, yogurt, jam and cheese. I thought I would go out to eat if breakfast was too much, but it was enough. Due to the depreciation of the yen, the hotel in Paris for the first time in 4 years was very expensive, and I was worried about where to stay, but I chose this place and it was the correct answer. There is a classic elevator and the rooms are large enough. There is no refrigerator in the room, but it was a very good hotel considering the price.
