Hôtel R. Kipling by Happyculture

Friendly staff, comfortable room and perfect location. Great value!

Room was smaller than I expected, desk too small to work on and chair very uncomfortable with a broken desk lamp.

The staff were pleasant generally, the hotel was clean, the little gifts left for not having the towels changed was quite sweet. Location is excellent for transport anywhere in Paris as you are only 2 minutes from metro and buses. It is very close to the Moulin Rouge and all the theatres and cinemas.

The room was small and because of this lacked space for storage or somewhere to put anything on (chest of drawers or table) and not comfortable chair to sit in after a day walking, The breakfast was a little disappointing but what was available was ok, we did have an issue with the coffee machine and did ask for it to be changed but had to ask 3 times for a replacement. The bathroom did lack an extractor fan which was an issue after a shower. the hotel is in a nice area although it close to area that does contain all the sex shops, but this did have little impact on where the hotel is situated.

The two men at reception were amazing. Very helpful, always happy and always willing to help us. In our opinion, went above and beyond. Close to CrossFit Louvre III which made my stay great especially if you would like to continue training whilst away.

It was near the red light district of Paris. Did not feel safe walking around that particular area in the day, let alone at night. Told to stay clear of it after midnight. This put us off the whole trip really and we were then wishing we stayed at ronceray as it was a bit more touristy and felt more safer.
