Vintage Paris Gare du Nord by Hiphophostels

Biggest positive is the location, 5 min from Garde du Nord Train Station, neighbourhood is nice too, you can walk to all of the attractions.  Super tiny room, especially the shower room is basically a capsule. If you are a big person (wide&tall), you may not if even fit there. Hotel and especially rooms are extremely worn and in bad condition, very poorly-maintained. Rooms are super noisy and streets are also noisy during the day, didn't sleep well at all.

Near to subway station. In the morning too noisy, room is not enough space

酒店建築頗舊，但地理位置不錯，距離火車站步行7分鐘即可到達，附近有很多餐廳，也有小超市。房間基本設施齊全，空間佈局合理，櫃枱工作人員友善。

i wouldn’t recommend anyone to stay here. it’s more of a hostel than a hotel which isn’t worth the price of what we paid for. the rooms were decent; tv and double and a single bed. really small bathroom and shower. there was 2 nice receptionist there out of the several that we spoke to during our stay. (5 nights). i’m not sure of anyone’s names but the gentleman who checked us in on the afternoon of wednesday 3rd july 2024. (had a broken arm). and the gentleman who helped us with the leak in our room early hours of saturday 6th july 2024 was lovely as well and moved our rooms immediately. the other receptionist weren’t helpful and would give us weird looks when we asked questions or needed anything like extra towels or tokens for the coffee machines. i felt very uncomfortable in this hotel and felt i couldn’t ask staff for anything. (unless the two nice receptionists that i spoke about) but they weren’t there a lot was mainly the other receptionists. the first room we stayed in, we couldn’t get the air conditioning working at first but on the third day decided to start working which then leaked all over the single bed early hours in the morning causing us to move. The lift also wasn’t turned on so we had to walk 5 flights of stairs every day. The rooms are very basic, there’s no wardrobe, draws, hangers and the shampoo and hand wash in the bathrooms were empty, the towels were also very small. Some of the décor was okay although half of it looked worn and unfinished. the area where the hostel/ hotel is 10 minutes from sacré-courer so it’s not too bad location wise but from reading other reviews there are better places to stay if you wanted to stay near here. NO SAFE, DONT LEAVE MONEY IN ROOM. finally, staff don’t seem to read when the do not disturb sign is on the door and come in and clean the room anyways. moreover, i would not recommend this hotel. it wasn’t our first choice in hotel as we have been to paris before and stayed somewhere else which was nicer but it was unavailable for our time we wanted to stay.

I arrived in Paris without a hotel booking. I had hoped to book on the train over from the UK but the Wi-Fi was not up to it. So this was an off the street booking. From the start I was struck by how helpful and friendly the staff are. This continued throughout my stay. I was assisted by many members of the team and there is a good team spirit in the hotel. My room was a good size and there was a comfortable bed and a nice en suite. The room was perhaps a little stark and the ceiling of the bathroom needs a little touch up decor, but this was a hotel that was offering very good value for money compared to other alternatives nearby. The hotel does not offer breakfast but it has a pleasant seating area with a coffee machine and coffee was free up to I think 11 o'clock in the morning . There were little tokens that you put into a slot in order to get the coffee. The hotel are very happy for you to gather together some breakfast fare from the nearby bakeries and so forth and partake of this in the seating area. The hotel is close to both Gare du Nord and Montmartre. The Metro Station Anvers is even more nearby. It was a short walk from the hotel and I discovered on my last day that there was an even shorter walk if I taken a different road. For me this was a very good metro line and I was able to see many places I wanted to go to in a few days without any, or too many, line changes. I rather like seeing cities in this way, by seeking to make the most of tube lines or tram lines that are close to where I am staying. While I remember I would recommend a repairs and alteration shop called M'Apostrophe which is nearby. There was a very charming seamstress there who helped me when I was lost. There were some very chic dresses on a hanger that I assume belonged to local Parisians. I understand that the seamstress is very well thought of and so if one was to have a wardrobe malfunction whilst in Paris I think this would be the ideal place to put things right. I really enjoyed my few days in Paris and I'm grateful to the team at the Vintage hotel who looked after me very well.
