호텔 드 에크리벵

We enjoyed our stay. It is a typical old style French hotel with small rooms and bathrooms and lifts squeezed in. The area is outside the usual for tourists but not far from Los Gobelins where we have stayed before. I would decribe it as 'mixed' but it's a pretty walk in through the back streets to the Sorbonne area. The hotel staff were vey welcoming and breakfast was excellent but we were there when it was very hot and steamy and not having air conditioning knocked down some of our marks. If you want a well priced hotel within walking/metro distance of the central sites you could do a lot worse.

The staff are very freindly and the rooms are in good condition and clean. On the down side I had to open the shower door so I could sit on the toilet as there was only about 9inch between the tiolet and the shower. The location of the hotel is not good for sightseeing, either expect to walk 8 miles per day or spend about €10 per person on travel.

Clean room, nice staff, breakfast was good, staff was great. Hotel room was small, but that's to be expected in paris
