Pratic Hotel - Paris

7.2

Breakfast is not good in quality (bad croissants, bread...) as it happens often in Paris hotels

8.9

The perfect spot if you don't spend more time in your than sleeping. Terrific location in Le Marais, even walking distance to most famous places. 5 minutes to the subway. Charming, very old building. Good & friendly service. Clean room, although not spacious. We'd love to come back & think we got good value for our money.

8.5

room was very small but clean. no elevator and very small stairway. excellent location and excellent surroundings. very good relationship between price/quality.

7.5

The location of Hotel Pratic is fantastic, lots of restaurants and cafes, interesting shops, pedestrian streets, close to the metro and easy to get to from the airport - if you don't have a lot of luggage! One of the reception people was very helpful, the other seemed more put out to make an effort beyond giving you your room key.

4.5

very close to the nearest monuments but the rooms are realy small and there isn't any lift.

6.8

Don't expect luxury here. The building is 17th century; the rooms are modern and clean but very small; there is no lift. BUT it's good value for money; the staff are helpful and pleasant and it's is in the Marais, one of Paris's oldest and mst historically interesting areas. If you're just looking for somewhere to sleep and have a shower after a day out in Paris, it's ideal.

4.6

There are so many stairs. Would not suggest this place to someone who has problems climbing stairs. The rooms are small, but if you are there to sleep then its fine. No point to turn on the tv since there are 3 french channels. OK this is the best....you can shower and use the toliet at the same time.i'm serious! and the water turns off every min. With that said the location and price was great; so if you are looking for somewhere to sleep n shower than this place works. If you are looking for luxery than go elsewhere

5.6

En condiciones generales esta bien, por el precio pensaria se puede conseguir algo mejor y mas grande, las habitaciones realmente son muy pequeñas, las indicaciones del mapa muy simples, la calle donde esta ubicado es una calle detras de una secundaria.

5.9

Hola Le informo a quien le pueda interesar que el lugar esta cerca del metro y eso esta bien, el cuarto es pequeño pero con baño y eso fue comodo. No tiene ascensor y el sistema con que controlan la entrada de personas es manual por lo que mi amiga que llega en otro vuelo casi se pierdo porque no aparecia en el libro de registro. Tiene cerca supermercados y panaderias, El precio de noche fue promedio auqnque alla me dijeron que se consiguen por lo mismo a menor precio. No hay disponilidad de adaptadores y en la noche la persona que atiende no enteinde mucho, auqnue se esfuerza por ser muy amable. Es cerca de Notredame y eso estuvo muy bien aunque cuando aprendes a usar el metro no hay problema.

8.7

A lovely hotel in a great area, with very helpful and friendly staff. I only had two small issues: despite booking a double room, we were given a twin; and no telephone in the room, not essential but a little difficult to call reception in need, as suggested by the front desk... I have already recommended it to a colleague, but would discourage elderly people or families, as there is no lift.

6.8

The location of this hotel is excellent , close proximity to Notre Dame and the Seine, abundant of good bistros in the vicinity etc. Our room , as expected is small. As it is a corner suite, the walls are concrete which is great for sound insulation but the somehow wherever the neighbours flushes their toilets, the sound just amplified loudly in our room. Other than that, we had an enjoyable stay in Paris. The website indicated that there are security safes in each room but that was not the case. Cheers.

8.7

The staff were very welcoming and helpful. I got a better room than I was expecting and felt that it was very good value. The room was small but clean, comfortable and interestingly decorated. The street was noisy and the plumbing fairly loud so it would suit a heavy sleeper best. As a single, female traveller this hotel suited me very well.

8.7

Excelente relación calidad/precio, sobre todo por la ubicación del hotel, que se encuentra muy próximo a la ille de france, al louvre y al barrio latino. La plaza en la que se encuentra también es muy inspiradora.

4.8

The price is not proportional relativ to the quality of this hotel

4.9

6th floor without elevator might be somewhat challenging for older or handicapped.

7.4

My friend and I were on vacation in Paris for only one night and the hotel was just what we needed. The room was small, but when you are traveling and sight seeing all day, it is just what you need. Breakfast is offered at a small fee (12 Euro for two I think) which is convenient.

6.9

the position is great and the rooms are clean,but the bathroom is really too small and the stairs (6 floors walk up) are hard to do.not suggested for older people,but very good for young people and couples.

6.5

the marais is wonderful.

7.5

People very friendly and helpful. no elevators and if you are on upper floors, it is quite a hike. The stairs are next to the rooms and you can hear people going up and down. You can also hear every time someone flushes the toilet or takes a shower. If you are a light sleeper, wear ear plugs. No wi-fi. Great location in Marais district, close to metro and bus lines. all the necessary shops are right there---

8.9

Many points new: nice and proper bathroom, decoration, windows. Very kind people. Excellent price/quality. Very quiet. Excellent surroundings: center of Paris !

1.8

Cleanliess is something different...taht's a pity because the location was pretty good.

8.0

Basic but confortable hotel as fas as my staying was concerned. I had to stay one night so I had just a small luggage and I didn't mind if in the hotel there was no lift and my room was on the 5th floor...This could be the only disadvantage of this hotel in my opinion, otherwise I found it clean, the service was ok, the room was extremely quiet, the hotel surroundings GREAT and the underground just round the corner. I could recommend it to young people who don't mind having so luxury rooms but just a "practical" place to stay (like the name of the hotel says!) and rather visit and discover Paris, a real fantastic city.

7.7

I sincerilly believe that the price of the breakfast is too high for what it is... With 6 euros i could eat way better in other places than at the hotel.

6.1

I was there during work in progress: why they don't close the hotel? It's not a good idea to work with the clients inside.

6.4

A great location but the bathroom was in need of repair. Overall, the room was clean, and the accomodations were about what I expected from a two-star.

1.7

I would change my reservation and the hotel said me to see with Venere and you said me to see with the hotel, so it is impossible to change. I will wrire to the DGCCRF because this is not acceptable and lokks like a swindle. Never i will recommend your company or this hotel to somebody.

2.4

a little hotel well situated in "le Marais". Nice people but poor facilities. No internet. Expensive with regard to product/services/facilities. Similar hotels around seemed 20-30% cheaper.

7.3

Small rooms and can be noisy but in a good location

8.6

Great location. I recommend checking the shops in the (Marais) neighbourhood.

7.9

Nice little hotel, with "little" as the key word. We had a "superior double room with view of the Place du Marché Ste. Cathérine" confirmed, and when we checked in (late) we got a room under the roof, six floors up and no elevator. The view of the Place du Marché etc. etc. was from the bathroom. Big depression! On mentioning this to the receptionist, we learned that Americans (!) tend to love that kind of room for its rustiqueness and traditional Parisian allure. Being Norwegian and having visited Paris regularly over the last 30 years, we disputed the relevance of his argument and were promised a room change in the morning. The new room was everything we had expected; a little cramped with regard to wardrobe space, true, but with a beautiful bathroom, and view of the Place from both. Breakfast was generic, but good as generic breakfasts go.

2.5

Had to go up 5 flights of stairs with bags. Breakfast was rubbish and a complete waste of money

4.9

Good location for cheap, but you get what you pay for. Thin walls so you hear everything. Towels are still an issue.

7.7

The place where the hotel is located ís very quite, nice and very calmed. But I think the relations betwen price/quality is not good enough, but it´s acceptable.

8.1

the location is perfect - in the center of paris. it is a small hotel and nice one - old building but the room looks new. the room we made the reservasion for turn to be so tiny, no space even for to put the suitcases but the hotel offered us a larger room, not so small and with a view (the street) and it was a nice room. again - the location was excellent and made a good value for the money.

6.7

The quality of the room was excellent for the price paid. Booking the room was conveniently easy and all information on the website for the hotel were great. I booked an extra night stay after the original booking and received an email response (which I have kept!) confirming the booking. I arrived on the date of booking and the room for the extra night was not available. The claimed internet access was NOT available and staff was not knowledgeable about any internet-related issues. I would be willing to pay for the internet access. At an age where WI-FI is accessible, the hotel should pursue that and leave it up for guests to pay a special fee to log onto to their internet service. There was no expectation for extreme provision of services. The hotel is well kept, impeccably clean, and priced appropriately.

5.0

Location is good, about 10min walk from Hotel de Ville, very near to the subway station. Room was very small, which I was expecting anyway :). However I did not expect to have dirty towels (they were once white... now the color was uncertain and there had stain spots) or dirty/old blankets... In the reception area there some kind of open storage space behind curtain with all kinds of old/broken stuff... pretty scary. I bet you can do better for 90/night... even in the same area.

7.5

We were 2 adults and 3 children and stayed 4 nights. The hotel was nice, old, little and familiar. It was easy to find, near Metro station. Lot of restaurants and shops around. Walking distance to many famous places.

8.2

We only stayed one night, but it was a good, clean place with necessities. If you don't mind climbing a spiral staircase (possibly to the 6th floor!) then it is a good choice-good view from the top. It was recently renovated & in a decent location (about 10 minutes walk from Notre Dame). Rooms are close together so you can hear people next door going in & out of their rooms, but other than that, no other noise issues. We didn't try the breakfast, but they had normal prices. (Also, many bakeries & cafes nearby). I was a good quality hotel, especially for the money paid-$60 Euros.

3.8

No workspace whatsoever.Old mattresses stacked in attractive pb area so it was unavailable for guests; unsafe stairs with unusable railing on the wrong side;abominable bathroom:stained towels w/ holes; tiny sink w no place to set or hang anything,mirror way above eye level;commode space narrower than woman's shoulders.FABULOUS location if you are on foot & camping out.

0.7

As I already wrote you: 1) I have not cancelled/modified my reservation from 25 to 27 January at Practic Hotel in Paris! The hotel gave you wrong information. 2) I booked a room which was supposed to have a double bed for 2 persons and bathroom with shower. When we came into the room, we realized that the bathroom was not a true bathroom, but just a coin in the very little corridor of the room, separated by a curtain! In other words, no bathroom's door!! This is not acceptable and the description in your web site was absolutely misleading. A bathroom is intended as a "room" separated by walls and door, and not just a toilet, a very little sink and a super -small shower separated by the rest of the room (we are speaking of a room of about 10square meters! !) by a plastic dirty and unhealthy curtain! 3) When we were going out for dinner, I gently asked the receptionist whether, by chance, there was the possibility to have a different bedroom with a proper bathroom and I explained the reasons. They replied that the hotel was fully booked and that the only available room was that one. I complained very gently that the description and the pictures I saw in the web-site were misleading and that we were supposed to pay for something completely different. The actual situation of the room should have been clearly described in the web-site. I also stated that I would have sent my complaints to Venere.com and that I would have scored the hotel very low. The receptionists started arguing and treating me in a very naughty and bad way. Anyway, I asked whether, in case we would have managed to find another hotel for the second night, they could have reimbursed us. The replied YES, no problem. We can reimburse you cash! This sounded very strange to me, as I had payed by credit card. 4) We went for dinner and decided of not wasting our time in Paris looking for a hotel for just one night, but of staying at Practic Hotel. However, when we came

7.0

Small rooms, good location, friendly staff, all in all we had a good stay.

9.9

If you aren't use to staying in European hotels, you are going to think the room is too small. But the bathroom was fairly large.

7.6

Our room was well appointed, though tight. The location was tremendous - 2 blocks from the Seine and Metro, and 3 from Ile Saint Louis and Place des Voges. Museums and good dining all around us. Would return.

8.0

when we will come back to Paris we will book again in this hotel - Quando torneremo a Parigi, prenoteremo ancora in questo hotel

7.6

Nice hotel in perfect location, rooms are clean but very small (bathroom!) and a bit dark (on the back side of the hotel). Front rooms are bigger and have a nice view on Place du Marche' de Sainte Catherine. Recommendable if you want to stay in the heart of Paris. For internet connection you need your own cable.

9.3

A clean and cosy hotel in one of the best areas of Paris, small rooms with flowery wallpapers, noisy as any hotel. Good choice!

6.9

VERY NICE POSITION IN THE HEART OF MARAIS. VERY KIND PEOPLE, SPACIOUS ROOM AS WELL AS THE BATHROOM, BUT THE HEATING WAS OUT OF ORDER. SUGGESTION: TO PUT 2 NIGHT TABLES INSTEAD OF THE CHAIRS. A DEFICIENCY OF THE HOTEL: THERE'S NO LIFT, OUR ROOM WAS AT THE 4TH FLOOR!

7.2

If you are looking for a hotel in a great location for a good price, this is your place. If your looking for comfort and accomodations, I would look elsewhere

8.1

Nice accomodation (triple-bed room)clean, hotel situated excellent near Paris centre ville, gentle staff. Nice italian restaurant "soprano" beside the hotel. Rubish collection and road-cleaning make some noise early in the morning, but that's normal for french cities. Only 3 min. to Metro.

8.2

Don't take anyone back to your room!The guy at the door wanted me to pay for a double for a friend to come back to my room. I don't think so !!!

6.9

Nice hotel, friendly staff, good quotations. There was one only problem: the hotel has no elevator and taking the stairs even only four times a day, is a job your legs won't appreciate too much! Specially when you're staying on the fifth floor.

6.1

Excellent location in Marais ten minutes walk from Notre Dame. Friendly staff. Extremely small room. Dark and gloomy. No lift but on first floor so no problem. Pity guests on sixth with luggage. Grey towels with holes in. Sheets never changed during six day stay. Good price for location so probably shouldn't expect too much. Will probably upgrade next time. OK as a base but with qualifications.

7.4

Great location - 10 minutes to Notre Dame & Many cafes & restaurants. Room small but clean & comfortable bed - hardly spent time in room anyway

5.2

The location is excellent. There is no lift and the rooms are very small. However, it is fine for where it is.

6.5

The room was quite small and could be renovated, but was ok for sleeping. Nice view to the place and great position.

8.6

Very well located hotel on quiet street in Marrais (4.th Arr.). Only 100 meters away from Rue de Rivoli with Metro, bus and supermarket. Hotel Pratic faces a nice square w. big trees and 5-6 restaurants. No lift – and 114 steps to top floor – so be prepared for some exercise! Several rooms under rebuilding (May 2007) and seems to become bigger afterwards. If your in Paris for being out in the city – and only need a hotel to rest, sleep and shower in – I can hardy think of a better choice than Hotel Practic when yopu take the price into account (app 100 EUR/night).

5.7

- very small room (which is a real handicap for tall people) : impossible to move in the shower, head flattened against the top... - We weren't informed before arriving that more than 50% of the rooms couldn't be rented because of an important water damage... consequences : a lot of people had to find other hotels in Paris at the last minute, needless to say it's a real mission - An advice : ask the hotel to confirm your reservation by mail and keep it as a proof - On the other hand, the location is great!!!! In conclusion, this hotel is a good solution if you only want a well located room and a bed to sleep! If you want something more sophisticated, go your way!! ciao

7.9

Good location: Bastille has a lot of variety for entertainment and is central to the sites and metro. Warm greeting and helpful staff. No Lift. Decor matches pictures. Small, basic room suited for resting after a day/night out. Builders noisy in the morning. Breakfast offered but not taken. Good shower. OK stay.

6.6

Very spacious and nicely done room. Unfortunately, there was renovation work going on while our stay and the whole place was noisy during the day - which should have been reflected on at least some discounted price. No elevator, either, so hauling up the luggage on narrow stair case is not for not so young.

7.2

Functional!

8.0

sehr schön und vor allem ruhig an dem wunderschönen Platz marché Saint-Cathérine gelegen, mit netten Cafés und Restaurants. Das Marais ist für mich eines der schönsten und noch ursprünglichen Quartiers von Paris. Das nächste Mal werde ich wieder hier wohnen. Neue Sanitäranlagen! Leider sehr kleine Zimmer, aber wer ist in Paris schon auf seinem Zimmer? Witzige Einrichtung im ganzen Haus. Kein LIFT! Excellente Metro-Anbindung.

6.9

Great location in the Marais. Very small room and small shower. Floors are also slightly slanted, kind of disorienting. But overall, decent stay and fairly quiet. If you're staying on top floors, it's a bit of a hike b/c of no elevator.

3.9

I was there for my job and this is not a good solution for people who working in Paris. But the sourrandig is simply wonderful! The little square which the hotel face on, give you a great sense of peace and realx. Atmosphere is typically parisienne. The staff is not so prepared but polite. Rooms are small, very small, but clean. I suggest this hotel to young couples ( there's not the elevator ) in a romantic trip...

5.7

We had a double with an en suite shower/toilet/sink. Room was smaller than the usual small Parisian Hotel. No Lift. Staff was probably friendlier than usual because I spoke French. Basically we needed a room, we were barely in it, and it filled a need. We had a hard time finding a room and grabbed this one. It is in a safe area and relatively clean. Nice and close to fun shops and metro stop. My girlfriend and I had a hysterical laugh about how small the room was!!! She had to crawl over me to get out of bed!!! It's a good thing we are good friends like sisters, we would have killed eachother otherwise!!! My husband would have had a fit over how small the room was!!! Funny how girls can cope with funky hotel rooms so long as the door locks and it's safe and clean!!!

7.3

As a foreigner travelling overseas, I was so impressed how easy it was to find the hotel. It so central and everything is just around, restaurants, cinemas, clubs, shopping centres, museums, Eiffel tower, it all in a walking distance. The hotel is situated opposite nice restaurants. I will recommend, that anyone travelling on low budget, but want to have the best of what Paris offers, then use The Pratic Hotel. The hotel staff is very good, they will assist with anything from directions to the best entertainment areas to restaurants, you name it. Thank you to The Pratic Hotel staff. Job well done.

5.6

Small room and old facilities. However very good location to walk around Le Marais.

7.3

Excellent location! Small room and smaller bathroom.

6.6

Hotel Pratic was at a great location on a quiet side street with a helpful staff. Here are a few things to consider about your stay in this hotel. The hotel has no elevator and about 7 or 8 floors, no outside visitors are allowed in your room, you turn your key in at the front desk when ever you go outside. The above list is not complaints simply information.

9.1

Le stanze sono piccoline, ma pulite ed l'albergo si trova nel centro per pochi giorni e' ottimo!!!

7.5

We took a night train to Paris, so we got there around 7AM. We wanted a map and other tourist information, but the information center was closed. We went to one of the hotels near the station and got a map and had decent buffet breakfast. We got to the hotel around 9AM and our room was happened to be ready. It was very nice of them to have let us check in that early. They are helpful and speak English well. The hotel has a good location - Close to the Metro, surrounded by a lot of restaurants and cafes. You can taka a very nice walk to Ile Saint-Louis, which we did every night. Our room was very quiet (If the room is facing to the street, it might be noisy.), but small - especially the bathroom. It's clean, but this is the smallest bathroom that I've ever seen. They put the curtain between the room and toilet (no door), so you might want to use the shared toilet occasionally. No elevator. It's part of European experience!

9.3

A very romantic hotel. It is located in the centre of of Paris with many little bars nearby and the Place de la Bastile not far away with many more bars. The next Metro station (St. Paul) is just a couple of steps away. Only three things that can be distracting: 1. The square where the hotel is located has some bars. So its nice to go out but it is not so quiet until midnight. 2. If you stay on the upper floors you have to climb some stairs as there is no elevator. 3. The rooms are very nice, but very small. Otherwise it is very romantic to stay there, I can only recomend it!
