Hotel Cosmotel

Everyone was kind, helpful, and amazing. From the initial welcome to the final goodbye (where I debated hugging the manager). Even though I was a stranger, they treated me like family. My room had a comfortable bed and pillows, a safe and a mini-fridge. The bathroom had everything one needed (plenty of hot water) and I made good use of the iron and the table-top ironing board. The room was small, but it was so well organized that it did not feel small. I also loved having a window (with the Juliette balcony) that I could open to let in some fresh air. My room overlooked… I’m going to call it an inner courtyard, so it was very quiet. There was also a central heating/cooling system with adjustable controls. The only thing the visitors should be prepared for are the stairs — they will have to drag their suitcases up (in my case) two flights of stairs. However, M. F. was there to help. I don’t know if I would have felt safe being in the area alone at night. I usually returned before dark. Early mornings in the area are quiet. The hotel has easy access to the metro, but I walked everywhere, so did not use it during this trip. I loved discovering the streets of Paris. I did not partake of the reasonably-priced breakfast, because I preferred to eat alone in my room. There are many restaurants, grocery stores, and even a Fruit Palace near the area. Cutlery was provided. I honestly cannot recommend this hotel enough and would be happy to return again on a future visit.

An excellent inexpensive hotel for a family holiday in Paris. Clean, quiet, 50 meters to the metro. There are many supermarkets nearby. Refrigerator in the room. The downside is that the sweet breakfast is not tasty, but thanks to the large number of cafes nearby this is not a problem. Entrance to the hotel is only by calling the receptionist - it would be more convenient to open the door yourself using the key.

Overall, a good experience in Paris for our first family vacation in the city. Hotel staff made our stay very comfortable and worry-free, especially with secure underground parking option for our car.

My wife, two children and I just got back to the U.S. from a trip to Paris for 6 days and stayed at the Hotel Cosmotel. The rooms are small as you would expect in Paris, but extremely clean and comfortable. We had a room with two queen beds and they were just the right level of softness. You can open the window to let in a cool night breeze. There is good maid service each day, although she kept forgetting the toilet paper for some reason. When you walk out the door of the hotel, turn right. The area to the left is not so good and there isn't really much in that direction anyway. There is a Lidl supermarket and numerous pharmacies right across the street so we could fill our small fridge with water bottles and fruit. There is a great place to grab a gyro or kabob platter 1/2 block away called "Chou Chou" and the food is good. McDonalds and KFC a block away but come on, you are in Paris! Great bakeries within two blocks of course. 25 minute walk to Louvre, Notre Dame, etc. just like it says, but we took metro everywhere, which is only a block away. But the best part of the hotel, by far, is the owner and his assistant. One of them is always at the front desk every morning all day long, and if you let them know what you plan on doing, they will pull out a map and highlighter and tell you how to get there, what not to miss, and other valuable tips to make each day's exploring that much more pleasurable. These two men are fantastic! I'd say more but out of room*****

The hotel is in a great location if travelling by Eurostar from London to explore Paris, with so many of the sites, dining options all within a walking distance. For other trips, the Metro station is within a 5minute walk and made is really easy for our family to get around the city. The rooms were comfortable and clean and had all we needed as a family. The biggest positive of the hotel was the staff. They were all so welcoming, friendly and helpful and really added to our experience.

Nicely renovated rooms. Very clean. Friendly staff. Great breakfast room. Narrow winding stairs. Our room for 4-guests (2 adults + 2 kids) also had a small balcony. Only a 1-min walk to the Metro Station.
