Les Bulles de Paris — Hotel in Paris

I spent two nights at the hotel during my trip to Paris.

Overall, the hotel has a good location near to the metro and the Latin quarter is Central Paris along with plenty of small shops and restaurants within walking distance.

The price is quite reasonable too given the high cost of hotels in the area so if you're traveling on a budget it's a pretty suitable Choice when it comes to somewhere to stay.

The check-in process went fairly smoothly except the young girl checking me in didn't really give me much information about the hotel or anything to do in the area. I had to call down ask about breakfast and to figure out how to get on to the wifi.

The hotel itself is fairly modern on the inside with lots of chic design features and everything was very clean and well put-together.

The elevator was a bit slow although this is quite common in Paris and I didn't find it to be a problem at all.

Right away I noticed that the room was very small with the double bed taking up the majority of the living space and hardly any room to move around inside the room.

For example, I wasn't even able to do a single push-up anywhere in the room as there wasn't enough space for me to stretch out either length-wise or width-wise.

Considering that you're visiting Paris and you're not going to be spending much time in the room anyways it shouldn't matter that much but it was comically small in my opinion compared to all of the other hotels that I have visited in Western Europe.

The bathroom was quite small as well although it was very well equipped for a short-term stay in the city.

One thing I really did like was the view from the window and I couldn't see the Eiffel Tower but I could see the light that revolves from it at night and I really like the view up and down the street as well.

For the location and price, I would recommend staying here if you're on a budget and you don't mind staying in a small room.

Breakfast isn't included in the rate and I would recommend skipping breakfast and grabbing something at one of the many bakeries or small...

Good hotel for the price.

Rooms. If you plan on being in the room a lot, you probably would want to stay somewhere else. However, if you don’t plan on being in the room a lot, then the rooms are nice — small, but ample.

Location. The location is perfect. Very close to everything, but quiet. We biked a lot of places and there are a few bike parking areas nearby that make it easy to pick up and drop off Lime bikes.

Staff. When we arrived, we were greeted by Diana who was relatively rude. I asked her if there was anyway we could check in earlier and she kept saying “the room isn’t checked out,” but never gave a time it would be ready. She also never invited us to use the bathroom on their main level, despite being able to tell we had just traveled all night. Despite that, she wasn’t very friendly. We would come/go and she would be on her phone and/or doing something else and would barely acknowledge us.

There was a woman who worked one night shift during our stay who was great. She had glasses and light brown hair. We asked her for help on how to take the train to the Palace of Versailles and she took time to hand write the directions for us. She was very kind.

Breakfast. We only ate breakfast at the hotel one morning and it was surprisingly not bad.

Random. We booked some sort of premium package and were told we would get champagne and access to the wellness suite (with sauna, etc.). We were given the bottle of champagne, but the bottle clearly had been sitting for awhile as it was covered in dust. We, however, were never invited to the wellness suite. Prior to arriving I had emailed inquiring about the wellness suite and got a pretty bare bones response. I wish they would have acknowledged that we had that benefit as part of our reservation.

Overall, rooms are small but adequate. The staff is subpar. Would stay again for the price...

Totally disappointed. Came here to celebrate my 25th birthday. The reception staff was careless, the guy only gave us only one key (gave us two only after we asked). He didn’t show any skills of customer service, he was rather disturbed that we interrupted him by wanted to check-in. The hallways are really dirty for a 4 star hotel. They are rather at the end of a 2 star hotel range.

There is dust in the room in the furniture and decorations, the mirror has marks on it. The mattress is poor and has a used shape. There is barely space to move or even use the toilet for 1 person - although the room claimes to be for 2 people.

This 4 star hotel room has only 1 clothes wardrobe (if you can call this mini- box like that) with only 3 hangers (so we ended up with suits and dresses folded up during our stay) - distasteful!

The room is terribly small, getting ready to go out is a struggle! I am glad we are travelling light as we’re only here for 2 days, I can’t imagine how people travelling with a heavy luggage would do in this room.

The mini-fridge doesn’t feel like cooling anything.

This joke of a hotel has nothing to do with 4 stars but rather a one-night stand hostel and the price of £200/night (roghly 227euro/night) doesn’t justify.

Unfortunately we’re only here for 2 nights, and the stunning hotels we previously stayed in Paris have no availability this weekend, but we would have gladly changed it. I really don’t understand how this hotel has so many positive reviews.
