Hotel Arc Paris Porte d'Orléans Bewertungen

The background for the stay: We had to stay in Paris for the night between 28/05/2022 and 29/05/2022. We were shocked to see how difficult it was to find a hotel in Paris and how expensive they were. (Later we found out that the reason was the Champions League final between Real Madrid and Liverpool.) Therefore we ended up in an area fairly far away from Central Paris. Having read some of the negative reviews, the hotel was a positive surprise. The people at the reception were friendly, one of them helped me with my luggage when we checked out. That is the kind of service you often do not get in more high end hotels. The room was small and basic but was spotlessly clean. It also had double-glazing which kept any noise from the street away. The bathroom had bath. It was not a full size one but still nice. There were 2 soaps and 2 shampoos in the bathroom. The towels were fluffy. There was a balcony - big enough to stick your toes out! The negatives were: The walls were paper thin. Luckily we did not have any noisy neighbours and slept well. There are lots of steps: The lift is situated between the floors, so you have 9 steps to your room. You also have 7 steps to get to the reception from the street , 11 steps from the reception to the lift. Services close by: A Carrefour was 1 minute away, a boulangerie 2 minutes away, we had dinner at the Italian restaurant Il Segreto 5 minutes away, which had very good food. A surprisingly good budget hotel.
