Find the Cheap Montrouge Hotels

I often stay at this hotel. Located in the south of the city of Paris, the hotel is already out of Paris (at the junction of Little Paris and Paris), with subways and RERs to the airport. There are two IBIS (a traditional IBIS, an IBIS BUDGET) on the edge of the hotel. In comparison, the home is quiet, the decor is fresh and the breakfast is not crowded. The front desk staff are also very enthusiastic. It is much better than the traditional IBIS (red sign) next to it.

I have been there a few times now to work and this may become my staple place! I went to the cafe to meet someone for work and feel like I tripped into this gem. It’s clean, relaxed, warm, with great food, coffee, tea available… one of my favorite added touches is the infused water they offer. A special kudos to Samia who was so kind and attentive. While I’m in Paris this will be my work space for sure!

I tried to book in this hotel and they offered me a flexible package which I have accepted, the package includes free cancellation. I had a medical emergency before arriving and instead of pressing the booking cancel button I clicked on the “change date”. They insisted on charging me for the first night although I have explained to them several time that it was a human error, they didn’t want to listen or understand. They just wanted the capitalize on this accident. Please avoid them, they are not honest and unfriendly.

We stayed at this hotel for two nights during our stay in Paris. It has the usual features of an Ibis hotel with a full set of washroom in one room (unlike the Ibis budget ones) and it is located around a 10 minute walk to the Line 4 subway. It is pretty much far from the main attractions in Paris, but it is easily reachable via the subway regardless. The breakfast buffet was just cold breakfast. I did not see hot meals served. The breakfast room is actually separate from the restaurant area so that was interesting.

The staff was friendly and the facilities were good. Anything big is good. The process was well done, so it was faster and more convenient than a 5-star boutique hotel. However, on the last day, I was tired and had to leave late, so the room cleaning was delayed, so I was waiting at the door. It's absurd that you didn't do it even though you ran into a cleaner I've stayed at a few 4-star places except for 5-stars, but all of them don't have free water. Perhaps because the water price is expensive, only water purifiers are provided on each floor.

Great base for a Parisian visit. On Metro linge 4, a great line which cuts through the heart of the city. The Adagio is 10 mins away from the Metro, with a Boulangerie and Monoprix 5 mins away. Our studio was small but well formed, with a small kitchen (inc a microwave, stove top and dishwasher). Loved the balcony as it was warm so the airflow was very welcome. The bed folded up onto the wall and converted into a sofa which was a good use of space. There was a separate bath/shower and loo, which was nicely designed. All in all a great stay, comfortable, it met all our needs and we’d stay again. Being away from the main city hubbub suited us well.

Our nights accommodation in Paris was the B&B Hotel Paris Porte D'orleans. A very new hotel, so everything was new and clean. Our room was well appointed and comfortable, the bathroom had everything we needed, and a bonus was the room had a long distance view of the Eiffel Tower. The hotel has a very pretty courtyard area for those who smoke. The hotel is an easy walk to trains to take you into the heart of Paris. There is a bar but at the time of our visit, they were still pending their liquor license so we were unable to get drinks. The hotel is quite close to a major road, so the rooms at the front of the hotel can be noisy. They provide a good breakfast buffet, including the usual eggs, toast, juice, tea/coffee and of course, croissants.

I stayed at this hotel for four weeks in June and July. My experience here was disappointing, starting from the moment that I checked in. My reservation stated that fees and taxes were included and the final amount to be paid at the hotel was shown. I reserved “connecting studios for 4 people” and I was charged an extra 210 Euros at check-in without being told. When I questioned this later, I was told that there is a tax of $2.50 per person per night and the reservation amount only included this tax for one person, so I was charged for the other 3 people at check-in. However, I was still overcharged. One person was under 18 and should not have been charged at all. Another person was leaving early. I was able to eventually get a partial refund because of this. When I chose this hotel, I was looking for one that had air conditioning, and this feature is stated on the website for the hotel. When we arrived, it was very hot in both rooms and the temperature cannot be adjusted in the room. When I tried to get the air conditioning fixed, I was told that the temperature cannot be decreased under 26 degrees Celsius (78.8 Fahrenheit). The temperature cannot be controlled from the room. Most of the time, it seemed that the A/C wasn’t even on, and I was so hot that I was sweating. I did notice that the temperature in the lobby was always much cooler than in our rooms though. If you are looking for a hotel with air conditioning, you won’t be comfortable here. The customer service varied greatly depending on who was at the front desk. Some people were great and some definitely were not. The rooms are only cleaned once per week, but I didn’t mind that. The hotel uses thin, papery mattress covers that seem to be disposable and continually slip off of the mattress. I found myself constantly trying to put the mattress covers and sheets back in place to avoid sleeping on the bare mattress. The covers tear very easily, which made it difficult. This was very annoying. Overall, our stay wasn’t horrible, but we didn’t enjoy this hotel and were happy to check out. I won’t stay here the next time that I am in Paris for an extended stay.

I have tried to base my review on the factors which the hotel (hostel) does have control of and ignore the views of other guests. The staff we encountered were all friendly and helpful speaking fluent English. We got some free towels (normally chargeable) and a room to store our luggage on our last day. The public areas are clean and tidy with a classy uniform wallpaper design throughout. We didn’t take any food instead opting to use the nearby Lidl for croissants and baggets although I think it was an option. The rooms were small with a sink, blackout blind, opening window, functional bed and an uncontrollable vent. There were four showers and three toilets per floor for communal use. The flat roof outside the window was strewn with rubbish (condom packet one of the more unpleasant), the bed was comfortable without being anything more there was no mattress protector (so I can understand the basis for other reviews) and the vent was continuously noisy - good job we were tired! The showers were clean and powerful if not a little too hot, the toilets however were often reduced to one as they were blocked and unsanitary. The area outside is the bottom end of pooville (I can’t use other language) arriving my heart sank although I was aware the outskirts of Paris are often questionable for tourists, it isn’t an area I’d want to be alone in at night. The reason for us booking here was the availability of a car park. The parking is two basement levels immediately below the hostel (not clear on booking) accessible by foot through a number of (broken) QR code security doors with nobody answering the intercom. The car exit had a metal gate and the entry a barrier so overall I guess very secure! but it is disgusting which doesn’t give you a feeling of security. Leaking pipes and a stench of urine in the stairwell complemented with walls covered in I don’t want to know what! It’s not luxury, it’s functional. You are in an (expensive) capital city and you pretty much get what you pay for, you’ve got to adjust your expectations. It was a good base for our two day trip in the city via a twenty minute metro ride.
