wow, okay where do i start!! if you have never been to paris before, then look no further, this is the place to stay!! its situated 2 blocks from the eiffel tower and is located in the area that you definitely want to stay. The streets are clean, its romantic, its the nice part of paris. no sketchy people, no smell of urine, no beggars, no thieves etc. just beautiful paris. the staff of htoel de'l alma are warm and helpful and stay out of your business. the rooms are a little smaller than normal but you get what you pay for. our room had a very clean, modern bathroom and a window which had beautiful views. the hotel is located in a quiet lane, there are no clubs or bars around so you will get a good nights sleep. we were able to get a really good deal through venere and were very happy for what we paid for. We had friends who stayed in another part of paris and were afraid to leave their hotel and when they came to our hotel were very happy with hotel de'l alma. strongly suggest this place for people who want dont want to spend a fortune, but would like to be in a nice part of paris!!

My first time in Paris and with Hotel De l'Alma inmidst of real PAris, wonderfully located in a sidestreet to rue grenelles, the bus round the corner, the sites and metro 5 minutes away. the personal was very friendly and helpful. I did not have breakfast in the hotel, but there are many nice cafes just round the corner! My room was to the street, of course I heard some noises, but the view outside the window to the parisien surrounding was very nice. I took a twin as a single traveller, and the room was then big enough for me, the bathroom was anyway not small. conclusion: fine location, pricerelationship totally ok, I can recommend it.

The room was small but perfectly adequate for a short stay in Paris. It would be too small for a longer stay as there is very little/no space for luggage. A hairdryer should have been provided but wasn't. The location of the hotel is excellent! Very central, some rooms have view onto Eiffel Tower; at the same time it was quiet and peaceful.Staff was professional and polite. There is a lovely little Italian Restaurant around the corner on Avenue Bosquet called tina's; excellent food and good service. And very reasonably priced.

I´d a trouble while I was staying in this hotel. I'd sunglasses wich were bought during my travel and it was robbed into the hotel. The manager and hotel's staff didn´t help me to find a solution and so I went to the Paris Police in order to make an ocurrence. Even so, still today the hotel didn´t give me any solution for my case. I didn´t recomment a hotel where you can´t let your stuff inside the room without any safety.

Las habitaciones on pequeñas, pero el baño se lleva todas las plamas; creo que solo entran alli personas delgadas. y si coincides con tus vecions de habitación el ruido se contrarrestará con el cansancio que lleves. La ubicación del hotel esta bien. si solo quieres ir a dormir y darte una ducha super rápida es una buena opción. Además el precio de la web esta muy bien para ser Paris.

This hotel is located in one of my favorite neighborhoods in Paris. It was a great room for the price. The bathroom was huge compared to most of the bathrooms in Paris and the room was pretty spacious as well. The staff was very nice and helpful. The website boasts a view of the Eiffel Tower from some rooms, but I have never been in a room with such a view. Still, my boyfriend and I had a nice stay in this room and would stay here again on our next trip to Paris

We only stayed one night of the 4 booked and forfeited paying for a night in order to find a decent hotel. The rooms were small dark, very poorly decorated and in need of major renovation. Definitiely not a 3star hotel compared to others we have stayed in in Paris.

Considering the location in Paris, this hotel was excellent value. With easy walking distance to the Eiffel Tower we were able to set out for the sights without to much effort. I would recommend this hotel to anyone on a short stay who wants to be central. Staff were very helpful, rooms were tidy and there wasn't a lot of noise from the streets in the morning. We had a very pleasant experience. Thankyou Hotel De l'Alma

It's really closed to Eiffel Tower. Wonderfull district/place and really it's quiet. The employees were pleasant and attentive. By other hand, the rooms are really small, and our room the floor was little bit dirty, finally the bathtub was stall. But Price/Quality it's really fine, think about "center Paris and cheap"...

we were only there for one night the man at the desk when we checked in was very abrupt and did not explain were the room was and that there were doors blocking off the rooms with light switches on timers so you are left in the dark. the person who took over for him for the night shift was very pleasant and helpful. very close to many attractions i personly love that area of paris

Great staff and terrific area, with a slightly different, "real" feel when compared to the more tourist-centered places to stay. Rooms were tight, but that's par for the course, and the walls were a bit thin, but good restaurants and cafes nearby, a British pub was close, and a terrific shopping street a few blocks away. The subway was close, but you had to make a change to get to any of the more popular areas.

I am confident that there are thousands of better hotels to stay at in Paris that this one! I have been to Paris three times and stayed at a variety of hotels in Paris varying from hostels to one and two star hotels. THIS HOTEL IS BY FAR THE WORST HOTEL I have had to stay at, no question. I was afraid for my life in the elevator and the doors opened to absolute darkness where I had to feel around for doors and light switches while my eyes adjusted to the low light. Thankfully I did not stumble to close to the open staircase right next to the elevator... In true Parisian style I was not warned of this or I would have taken the stairs. The entire hotel including the room had a very strong cigarette smell mixed with what I can only hope to be a cheap cleaner. The bed was uncomfortable. I felt dirtier coming out of the shower than going in. There was no clock in the room and the so called automated alarm system you are supposed to program with the phone did not work so I had to argue with the fellow at the front desk for a wake up call in the morning so I could make it to work on time. The two night guys were absolutly the rudest people I have met in Paris and the manager only worked from 9:00 to 15:00 so there was no option for money back or canceling my reservation for the second night since I had to work. This place is not even a half star hotel but advertises 3 stars. The St. Christopher's Paris hostel N.E. of Gare du Nord station which I stayed at later in the week was a luxery palace in comparison to Hotel De l'Alma!

There is little correspondence between photographs and reality. The hotel is old and shabby. The rooms (single, double and common areas) are really small up to the extent that you cannot comfortably seat on the toilet and three people cannot have breakfast together in the breakfast room. The breakfast is too simple and disorganised. The bedroom was extremely noisy the first night. Although the problem was fortunately solved (otherwise we would have seriously considered looking for another hotel)still some noise remained. Thus, never again.

Great location, but the rooms were awful. Rubber ceilings, no space to swing a cat, and the safe would not work. When I asked reception to either show me how to use the safe or get it fixed i was told that he wasn;t allowed to take his bum off the comfy seat behind reception! 3 star??? You're havin a laugh

Clean, friendly and helpful. Small space, but adequate since we were not there to lounge in the room. We were able to walk to all of the areas we most wanted to visit. We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay in Paris. There is a great little bakery at the end of the block. We did not eat breakfast in the hotel.

A clean and nice hotel and very competent employees, but our room was a bit small and the beds could be better. Also there was a smell of cigarettes in our room that was not so nice, but that´s France we guess. The location is very good with walking distance to the Eiffel Tower and the nearest Metro at Ecole Militaire is not far away.

The only thing I would recommend is the location. I stayed for one night for a business trip stopover to Barcelona. Since my intention was to do a quick sightseeing, the location was excellent. The room is extremely small and very poorly illuminated. It was quiet though... Overall cleaness was so-so. Check-in and out were OK, if you can speak French.

What a great hotel! Locationwise, we couldn't have asked for better. Fairly close to Ecole Militaire metro, and only a couple of blocks from the Eiffel Tower and the Seine. There were some great little restaurants nearby (and reasonably priced if you don't go to the ones on the tourist trail). At the end of the street is a great patisierie (sp?) where we breakfasted each morning. The room was comfortable and was well maintained. Only challenge was there was only one English channel on the television (CNN), but as we didn't spend much time in the room that was a minor problem. The staff were very friendly and helpful. All in all a great experience for us.

Rate Q/P very bad, we change to another hotel (in the same street) at the 2nd day and we paid 25 less euros (for the same quallity). The hotel is little, the only difference with a 2 star hotel (this is a 3 star hotel) besides the price is the "frigo bar"....

The room was absolutely tiny (which was what I was expecting, I guess.) It was really difficult to open or lock our door, as the handle of our door was in horrible condition; I couldn't get the key out and had to get someone to help me! Hotel staff gave us incorrect and unhelpful information. (For anyone's future reference, there is no longer a consigne (left luggage) at Gare de L'est!) The location, however, was brilliant. I loved the neighbourhood we were in, even if the beds were exceptionally uncomfortable. Next time I would try another hotel in the same area, I think.

This is a small and cute hotel in the heart of Paris. It is situated on a very quiet street close to different shops and bakery stores. It is 5 minutes away from the Eiffel and depending on the angle of the room, you may even have a view of the tower from your room. It is a few minutes walking from the Eiffel, the river and a metro station. All other main attractions in Paris are only 2-3 station away on the metro. The hotel staff is very nice and friendly. I recommend this hotel, and I will stay there again upon my return to Paris.

Terrible! For starters, be careful of the elevator. It sinks when you step into it with your baggage. This place was terrible! No A/C but be careful of opening the windows because the bats might fly in from the courtyard. Safe doesn't work. Shower nozzle and base broken. Gaudy color scheme of bright orange and red for the room colors. No space to move around in the room. Saggy bed. Housekeeping likes to walk in on you without knocking. Toilet difficult to use because of its orientation with the wall. Bring your own toilet paper; unless you'd like to use little pieces of pink kleenex provided. The only thing this place has going for it would be the close location to Eiffel Tower and cafe. Great room if you just need to crash, and don't care about comfort.

We booked 2 rooms...one for my wife and I and one for my parents. We stayed 4 nights. The location is excellent...easy walking distance to the Eiffel Tower, the Seine, Rue Cler shopping, and many resturants. We had two complaints. Firstly we felt that the rooms, particulary the bathrooms, were not cleaned as thoroughly as they should have been. Secondly, we had a fairly bizzare incident that proved, without a doubt, that someone was going thru our belongings while we were out. Let me describe what happened: One of my parent's suitcases had a small lock on it to which they haven't had a key for years. It is attached to one side of a zipper and when the zipper is closed it appears, at first glance, to be locked. One day when they returned to their room the suitcase was actually locked!! Someone had opened the lock, assuming that the suitcase itself was locked, presumably examined the contents of the suitcase, then relocked the suitcase!! My father took the suitcase down to the front desk and explained what happened. They simply shrugged their shoulders and offered to cut the lock off for him. Nothing was taken, as all of our valuables were in the room safe, but there's obviously a security problem and that makes us reluctant to recommend this hotel to others.
