Hipotel Paris Voltaire Bastille

Great location as walkable to Bastille and a stone's throw away from Metro Voltaire. The hotel was clean by Italian standards and the cleaning staff obviously worked hard.

Our room key was mistakenly given to an intoxicated guest by the hotel, we discovered on our return that our door had been left unlocked all evening and the guest had left a stolen bar chair in our room as well as some litter. We personally spoke to the guest via telephone after the receptionist had explained his mistake and can indeed confirm his intoxication. The hotel manager the next day was extremely rude and unhelpful, he called 'the guest' in question to explain the story to us but it was clearly a different person who then attempted to tell us a different story (about being a photographer who uses a chair and supposedly had been taking photographs in our room). We were very disturbed by our experience when we discovered our room unlocked and a mysterious chair beside our bed that evening. The hotel having realised their mistake failed to offer us a different room or any fresh bedding, which meant we had to spend the night in a bed in which we could not be certain of its cleanliness. They refused to give us any compensation whatsoever for their mistake that risked the security of our belongings (including passports and valuables), caused us great distress and a horrible night's sleep in a potentially unsanitary bed.
