CITADINES AUSTERLITZ PARIS, Paris – A Smart Stay in the City

The hotel had a few positives like a spacious room with a big table and comfy chairs but was a bit noisy at times, and the lack of air conditioning made it uncomfortable during the hot Paris summer days. The service was exceptional with staff going above and beyond, although there was a slight blame for booking through a third party. The location was excellent for those using Gare Montparnasse, near convenient metro stations, and away from crowded tourist spots. The dining options seemed like a rip off and not very diverse. Overall, the facilities were decent.

The hotel's rooms are basic but very practical for a Paris visit. They were clean with good facilities, though there was a slight smoke smell when we arrived. The service was very smiley and friendly, particularly helpful since we were traveling alone for the first time. The location is perfect, just a few minutes from two metro stations, making it easy to get around Paris. The dining could be improved but served its purpose for the duration of our stay.

The hotel is a spacious and well-furnished option in Paris, offering a fully functioning kitchen equipped with appliances like a stove, refrigerator, and dishwasher. It provides a comfortable bed, table, and chairs, ideal for working inside. The location is excellent, close to metro stations and in a calm area, although a metro ride is needed to reach the busier parts of Paris. On-site dining is convenient, priced at €10 per person, without needing to carry supplies far. However, the shower tiles had mold, affecting the overall experience.

The hotel offers fantastic value for money with comfortable and spacious rooms in central Paris, close to charming restaurants and cafes. While the rooms may not be very modern or elegant, they are clean, tidy, and equipped with basic facilities, including a modest balcony and a double sofa bed.

I spent my days exploring fashionable cafes, beautiful boulevards, and enticing patisserie shops in the heart of Paris, and every evening, I returned to this hotel to relax in my comfortable and spacious room. The rooms were sparkling clean and had all the facilities I could need. Just a heads up, it's best not to arrive on a Sunday night. Despite being soundproofed, they could use some updating as they seem to be slowly showing signs of wear and tear.
