We recommend STAYCITY APARTHOTELS PARIS GARE DE L’EST for those who plan to travel from Paris to Alsace Lorraine, Germany and other regions to the east.

Anyway, it is only a few minutes’ walk to East Station and there is a supermarket and various other shops in the neighbourhood within walking distance.

It is also only a five-minute walk from the North Railway Station, which is attractive for those who travel to several cities during their stay.

Furthermore, as it is a flat hotel, it has unquestionable facilities for self-catering, so it is attractive to those who want to “stay as if they were living in the house”.

Let us introduce you to this attractive hotel in detail.

STAYCITY APARTHOTELS PARIS GARE DE L’EST

Practical information

STAYCITY APARTHOTELS PARIS GARE DE L’EST

Address：Passage Dubail, 75010 Paris, France

Nearest station: metro lines 4, 5 and 7 Gare de l’Est RER B line Gare du Nord

Official site：Staycity Appartement hôtel – Gare de l’Est, Paris

Features

The hotel’s main attraction is its location.

For early morning departures from East or North train stations, once you are staying in a hotel close to the opera or other centres, you have to use the metro or other means.

This means that they have to leave much earlier, given the time spent walking and changing trains.

In this respect, the hotel is only a few minutes’ walk to the East Railway Station and about five minutes to the North Railway Station.

If you are a seasoned traveller, leaving 20 minutes before departure time will be enough to make it.

(If you are travelling from Paris for the first time, leave a little earlier.)

Another attraction is that, because of the name Aparthotel, you can cook your own meals.

When you come to Paris and find delicious-looking ingredients in the food department of a department store, supermarket or marché, you will not be able to cook them in a normal hotel.

The hotel has almost all kitchen utensils, from knives to bowls and plates, so you can probably do most of the cooking.

Note that the STAYCITY APARTHOTELS is not only Gare de l’Est, but also a chain of hotels mainly in the UK and France.

Exterior

The location is one street off the main road, but it is easily recognisable.

It is a rather modern building and can be easily found as it is flying the EU and French flags.

The entrance is small, but the yellow sign is eye-catching.

It is a bit dark at night because of the location, but it is not dangerous.

There are no problems with walking normally.

Interior

reception (desk)

The reception area is a bit small.

Staff are on hand 24 hours a day, so early morning departures and late arrivals are no problem.

The staff are also very helpful, so do not hesitate to ask them about any concerns or questions you may have.

Rooms

The room we booked was the cheapest room.

STUDIO APARTMENT

SLEEPS X 2
BATHROOMS X 1
CHOICE OF DOUBLE OR SINGLE BEDS

Small, compact, Parisian-style room.

Cleanliness.

There is a folding table by the bed.

It is quite spacious when both sides are widened.

It is spacious enough for a large number of dishes.

Smaller storage space.

Double-door closets.

A fan and iron are also available.

This is the other side.

Mops and other cleaning products are also provided.

Behind the door is an ironing board and a coat rack.

Kitchen

Kitchens are simple.

A microwave oven is also provided, albeit a small one.

A large fridge is a welcome addition.

The Astotel Hotel, where I usually stay, also has a fridge, but it is small in size, so I always struggle to fit my purchases in it.

It has a large capacity, so you can go shopping a lot.

There is also a smaller pot.

Mugs, glasses and plates are also available in several sizes.

Spoon, fork, knife and baking dish.

Drainer bowls, toasters and even cheese grating are provided.

As far as kitchen utensils are concerned, nothing was found to be missing.

Bathroom

Bathrooms are quite small.

It is much smaller than most hotels, which is typical of Paris.

It is clean, but could do with more space.

There is no bathtub.

Only shampoos for the body are available.

Toilet seats are also very common, but can be quite cramped in some rooms.

Laundrette

Although small, it is equipped with a laundrette.

I don’t know if there is one on every floor, but it is probably almost fully equipped.

The washing machine looks rather new and clean.

It also describes how to use the system.

It is not used here, but it is not that difficult.

The fee is EUR 5 for washing, EUR 3 for drying and EUR 0.5 for detergent.

I don’t know the capacity and drying time of the washing machine, but it is a typical amount.

Breakfast & Lobby

There is a small lobby by the entrance to the lift, with space for breakfast.

There are also refreshments available at all times, which may be purchased if you arrive late and are anxious to go out in the neighbourhood.

Prices are hotel prices.

Coffee and tea are also available.

Overall, the prices are hotel prices, but they are not exorbitant.

Breakfast 7am-12am.

The price will be EUR 6 per person.

Some people have used it, but it comes with a kitchen and there are many good bakeries nearby, so you should definitely buy your own food and spend some time in your room.

Neighbourhood attractions

Franprix

The nearest supermarket to the hotel is here.

You cross the main road, but it is only a few minutes’ walk.

Everything you need is available here.

Address：55-61 Boulevard de Magenta, 75010 Paris, France

Opening hours: Monday to Saturday 07:00~22:00 Sunday 09:00~13:00

Carrefour City

This is the place to go if you don’t want to walk down the main street or if you are shopping a little later in the day.

If you want to experience a Parisian atmosphere, this is the street to go to, as it is also surrounded by trendy restaurants and bakeries.

Address：31 33rue Vinaigriers, 75010 Paris, France

Opening hours: Monday to Saturday 07:00~22:00 Sunday 09:00~13:00

Problems with the stay.

As with any hotel, perfect hotels are hard to find.

The hotel naturally has several problems.

Room facilities, cleanliness

As for the rooms, they are generally clean and of an acceptable standard.

However, we stayed in two separate rooms this time and the second room had some problems.

• It was a very cold day and the heating did not work.
• The microwave had the smell of food cooked by the person in front of it.

If they were to stay for consecutive nights, they would ask to swap rooms, but the second time they only stayed for one night and checked in late at night, so it was a hassle and they stayed as they were.

I understood this from the time of booking, but I still felt like I wanted a bathtub on cold days.

Not only hotels in Paris, but many hotels in Europe are shower-only, but again, when I stayed there, I thought that having a bathtub would make a big difference to my impression.

The bathroom was very small, as was the case in both rooms.

The bathrooms were not as good as in other hotels in Paris.

If you stay for a few days, towels etc. are not changed.

Of course, for a fee, they can be changed daily.

A good way to deal with this is to bring towels you don’t need and wash them every few days, along with the rest of your clothes.

Dryers are a must, so they dry quickly and can be used again that day.

Security of the surrounding area.

The shortest route from Charles de Gaulle Airport to StayCity is to take the RER B line to North Station and walk from there.

Using the Roissy bus requires a lot of time and effort, as you have to travel from Opéra in some way.

If you travel on the RER B line, you will get there really quickly.

As many of you know, the area around North Station has something of a bad reputation.

While this may not be a problem for seasoned travellers to Paris, many may feel a little uneasy walking around for the first time, especially later in the evening when it is dark.

This may be even more worrying if you have large suitcases etc.

The atmosphere is quite different from that of the Opera, the Champs-Élysées or the Saint-Germain neighbourhood, so if you don’t like a slightly dodgy atmosphere, it is better to use it on your second or subsequent trips to Paris.

Recommendations.

I wrote a few negative things about the hotel, but basically I would recommend it.

Again, here are the recommendations again.

• Very close to East and North railway stations.
• Overall, a beautiful and clean hotel.
• All reception staff very friendly.
• One street off the main road, so very quiet at night.
• It’s a flat hotel, but open 24 hours a day.
• Free luggage storage for a few days when you go out during your stay. (This was very helpful)
• You can cook your own meals.

Summary

Although it is important in any hotel, the most significant factor in the comfort of the stay is the staff.

In this respect, we have been dealt with by several people, each of them of a different type but very helpful.

After our stay, we also contacted them about some problems and they contacted us directly with suggestions for solutions.

The Staycity company itself was even more positive about the proactive approach to improving its services.

However, once again, considering the location, it is a bit far to go to the Opera, the Champs-Élysées or the Eiffel Tower.

For first-time visitors to Paris, this hotel may be inconvenient in many ways and is recommended for second and subsequent trips to Paris, preferably if you plan to travel to other cities.

Thank you again for reading to the end of this issue.

The Hotel Lorette Astotel is a member of the Astotel Hotel Group, which is the most recommended hotel in Paris.

From the Opera House, which is in the center of the city, you will need to take a bus, but you can use Metro Line 12 during your stay, so getting to the major tourist attractions is not a problem at all.

And one of the attractions of the Hotel Lorette Astotel is the extensive breakfast.

It’s hard to find a hotel that offers such a generous breakfast for this budget, so please add it to your list of hotel choices.

Hôtel Lorette Astotel 　★★★

You will understand the appeal of the Astotel Hotel when you read this article.

Compared to hotels in the same price range in Paris, this is by far the best choice, so if you are looking for accommodation in the center of Paris, please try to stay there.

You won’t be able to stay at any other hotel because of all the free benefits.

Exterior

The Hotel Lorette is located right next to the Saint-Georges metro station, on the rue Notre-Dame de Lorette.

It blends in with the building and its surroundings so well that you might miss the entrance if you are walking around normally.

A statue of St. Georges greets you as you exit the Metro.

The traffic is not so bad, but there are surprisingly many people.

Photo from the hotel towards St. Georges station.

It’s downhill, so it’s very easy to go out.

It may be quite hard to go to the hotel with suitcases, etc.

Interior

reception

The reception counter is on the left as you enter.

The photo was taken from inside the hotel, so it is on the right side.

It is simple and clean, and the staff is very helpful.

Check-in is smooth and easy.

Hallway

The hotel is built deep in the back.

The hallway is wide enough to easily move suitcases and other large luggage.

The furnishings are also very stylish.

On the right is an elevator.

There is plenty of space and no problems.

I don’t get to use it very often, but the stairs leading to the upper floors are very stylish.

At the end of the hallway, there is also an exit to the other side, which brings in sunlight, making the whole place look brighter.

(We haven’t checked if it’s actually possible to go in and out.)

Central courtyard

There is also a small courtyard by the side of the hallway.

There are chairs, tables, and plants that make you want to relax on a sunny day.

However, since it faces each room on the first floor, you may meet other people who are staying there, so it is best to just enjoy the atmosphere.

Lobby & Snacks

As you enter the hotel, to the right is the lobby with a free bar.

It is located facing the street and has excellent brightness.

There are plenty of sofas, and even if there are other guests, I don’t think it will be too crowded.

The free refreshments, which begin at 2:00 p.m., come in a wide variety.

Croissants and snacks are available.

The daily tarts and cakes are very popular, so if you are unlucky, they may not be available.

Of course, they will replenish it, so if you don’t see it, go ahead and give it some time!

There is a wide variety of drinks in the refrigerator.

It’s great to be able to easily drink water or juice when you come back from going out.

There is also a selection of coffee and tea.

The Hotel Lorette also seemed to have better service than other Astotel Group hotels, as drinks are basically available 24 hours a day.

There is also a Segafredo espresso machine for coffee.

There are four different types, and I’m happy to see that they have decaf.

Room

The room we booked this time was a twin room.

We were shown to a room on the ground floor.

The room was surprisingly spacious.

There is also a desk.

I was a little disappointed that there were no drawers.

The closet is perfect.

Although not shown in the picture, blankets are also provided.

There is also a USB power supply above the bedside.

Multiple electronic devices can be charged simultaneously.

This is also helpful for those who don’t have a conversion plug.

However, the downside is that it’s only on one side of the bed, and there’s no power outlet on the other side.

Electric kettles, instant coffee, and tea are also provided.

The complimentary minibar is well stocked.

They will be replenished daily.

I think this room was a fluke, but the bathroom was also surprisingly spacious.

The water pressure and hot water temperature are all fine.

The bathtub was also much larger than I would have expected in Paris.

However, there is no shower curtain, so if you don’t take a bath carefully, the floor will be soaked with water.

This is a typical Parisian bathroom.

Breakfast

The breakfast room is located in the basement.

Table and sofa seats are also available.

There is more than enough space and a full menu.

Compared to other hotels in the Astotel group, this is one or two of the best.

The orange juice you can squeeze yourself is another attraction.

You can make fresh and delicious orange juice.

The color is also a little different from regular orange juice.

It’s a very tasty homemade orange juice, but it’s too much trouble to squeeze it every day, so I started using Tropicana the next day.

But the orange juice in France is very good.

In addition to the regular coffee, an espresso machine is available here as well.

There is also a wide variety of cereals and yogurts.

It was a very satisfying breakfast.

Surrounding Attractions

There are many stores around the Hotel Lorette.

From supermarkets to restaurants, I think you can find everything you need during your stay.

It’s a bit far from Printemps and Lafayette, but I don’t think it’s particularly inconvenient.

Carrefour City

Address：8 Rue Notre Dame de Lorette, 75009 Paris, France

Business hours: Monday to Saturday 07:00~23:00, Sunday 9:00~13:00

Just leave the hotel and walk down the hill and you’ll be there.

It is open until 23:00 at night, so you can use it the same day you arrive.

You can find everything you need during your stay, so it’s very convenient.

Please note that business hours are short on Sundays.

Maison Landemaine Martyrs

Address：26 Rue des Martyrs, 75009 Paris, France

Business hours: Tuesday – Saturday 07:30~20:30 Sunday 07:30~20:00  

Closed : Monday

I recommend the Martyrs store because it has a stylish exterior.

You can taste the high level of authentic bread.

How to get to Charles de Gaulle Airport

There are several ways to get to Charles de Gaulle Airport from Hotel Lorette.

• Take a Roissy bus from the Opera area.
• Take the RER B line from North Station
• Take a cab

If you are on a budget, taking a cab is the easiest and most convenient way to get around.

If you ask the front desk, they will call you at the time you want without any problem.

The problem is for those who want to travel to Charles de Gaulle airport without incurring any cost.

Travel by Roissy Bus

To take the Roissy bus to the airport, you have to travel to the bus station at the Opera House.

The easiest way is to head there on foot.

However, it is quite a distance from the hotel to the Opera House, so I would not recommend it unless you have little luggage or are confident in your physical strength.

If you have luggage and are not confident about your physical strength, I recommend taking a bus.

There is also a bus stop right near the hotel, but unfortunately it does not go to the Opera House.

So, I suggest you take a short walk and use line 45.

The name of the bus stop is Carrefour de Chateaudun.

It may seem a bit far from the hotel on the map, but it is a downhill walk to the bus stop, so it is surprisingly easy to get around.

I would also recommend line 45 because the bus stop arriving at the Opera arrives right behind the Roissy bus stop.

This is a very safe way to get around the opera, since you don’t have to carry your suitcase around.

Take the RER B line.

To get to Charles de Gaulle airport via the RER B line, you have to travel to the North station.

Like the Roissy Bus, this one can also be done on foot if you are confident in your physical strength or have little luggage.

For those who don’t, take a bus to get around as you did with Roissy Bass.

The bus stop has the same name as before, Carrefour de Chateaudun.

Don’t make the mistake of getting on at the wrong place.

This one is also a bit far from the hotel, but it’s downhill, so it shouldn’t be a problem.

Lines 26 and 43 are the ones to use here.

Both buses go to North Station, so you can just take the one that arrives first.

Please note that we will arrive at the North Station area.

It’s not a very safe place, so be careful with your luggage.

Summary

How was it?

Among the many hotels in the Astotel group, this hotel has a high overall rating.

I am quite satisfied with the safety of the neighborhood and the security of the hotel, so I think I can stay there with peace of mind.

However, if you want to go shopping at Printemps, Galeries Lafayette, or to the Louvre, you will have to take a bus or metro.

Likewise, if you have luggage, you will have to take a bus once to the airport, so I think this hotel is most suitable for those who are a little more experienced travelers.

Problems with Hotel Lorette

The hotel itself, Hotel Lorette, is almost perfect, but there is one major negative point.

That’s because the metro is too noisy.

Metro Line 12 runs underneath this Hotel Lorette.

I don’t think it would bother me during the day, but at night, the noise would be surprisingly loud.

I guess it depends on the room you are shown, but if you are on a lower floor, you will definitely hear the noise, so if you are sensitive, I suggest you request a higher floor when you book your hotel.

I hope this article will be helpful to those who are considering Hotel Lorette for their trip to Paris.

Thank you again for reading to the end of this article.

The Hôtel Caumartinn Opera is at the top of the Astotel hotel group, one of the most recommended in Paris.

The hotel is located next to the Astra Hotel, which I have mentioned before, and it is really convenient to go anywhere.

The hotel is also slightly less expensive than Astra Hotel, so it is a good choice for budget-conscious travelers.

For more information about the Astotel Hotel Group, please read the article above.

I think you will find that it is incomparably more attractive than other hotels in Paris in the same price range.

Anyway, it’s full of free benefits, so please check it out.

Exterior

From the outside, there is only a small entrance facing the Rue des Caumartin, casually decorated with the words HOTEL CAUMARTIN.

If you don’t look carefully at the map, you may pass by it unintentionally.

The hotel next door is the Astotel Group’s Hotel Astra, so be careful not to make a mistake.

The entrance is inside, with an auto-locking automatic door that is opened by a doorbell.

The whole place is built vertically, so you can hardly see the hotel from the outside.

Hotel Lobby

As soon as you pass through the automatic door, you will see the reception counter on your left.

Please complete the check-in procedures here.

The photo is just past the counter.

Elevators, if not improved, will shake when they stop, so be careful not to spill your cup of coffee or anything like that.

The restroom is at the far end of the hallway.

You can use it upon arrival or departure.

The lobby of the Hotel Caumartin is a bit small.

This is not the type of hotel where you can relax in the lobby.

Room

Hôtel Caumartin Opéra

I forgot to take a picture of the room, so I borrowed it from the official website.

The image shows a deluxe double or deluxe twin room, so it looks a bit spacious, but in reality, the room was rather small.

The rooms are small as only Paris can be, but the refrigerator and bathroom are fine.

Hôtel Caumartin Opéra

It’s not ideal for relaxing in your room, but considering that you’ll be sightseeing during the day, it’s not a problem.

Here is the actual room.

It looks neat and clean.

There is a kettle and instant coffee and tea.

The lack of drawers is a bit disappointing.

Of course, there are free drinks in the refrigerator.

The rooms are small, but clean.

The bedside is equipped with a power outlet.

There are power outlets on both sides, but USB charging is only available on one side.

The closet is rather small.

There is a hair dryer and a safety deposit box.

The bathrooms are also small and Parisian in size.

The bathtub has a half-size glass door to prevent some splashing of hot water.

(Be careful, the floor will be flooded if you don’t use it properly.)

The water and hot water supply is at a problem-free level.

If you have a room on the Caumartin Street side, you can overlook the street.

内側の部屋ですと特に見る物はありません。

Even if you are on the street side, you don’t need to worry too much because you won’t see anything in particular.

Breakfast

Breakfast is located at the back of the lobby on the left.

To be honest, it’s not that spacious, but I don’t think it will be so crowded that you won’t be able to sit down, so it shouldn’t be a problem.

The variety of bread is rather small.

Coffee is poured from a pot by yourself.

In the past, they used to bring it to each table…

There is also an espresso machine.

Salads and hams are also less varied.

However, salads are not widely available in all hotels.

There is also a small variety of fruits.

The hot meal is also only sausage and eggs.

ドライフルーツは壁の上部にあります。

It is too high for short people to reach.

The cereal is also placed in a subtle way.

Cheeses are normal.

The breakfast menu is a bit inferior compared to other Astotel groups.

I have no problems with the quality.

If you choose well, you will be able to spend a few days without getting bored.

Refreshments

Refreshments are served in the same room as breakfast.

It used to be available at the back of the lobby, but now the breakfast room is also available for light meals so that you can relax.

It may not look like much because of the large counter, but there are apple tarts, croissants, various snacks, and even small tomatoes.

The coffee is brewed by yourself in an espresso machine.

A variety of beans are available, so if you are a coffee lover, it would be a good idea to compare them.

You’ll be surprised to know that Segafredo coffee is also available in decaf.

Surrounding Attractions

The area around the Hotel Caumartin Opera has everything you need.

There are few convenience stores, but you can go to the gourmet floor of Printemps and the gourmet pavilion of Galeries Lafayette within a few minutes walk.

If you still want something a little more affordable during your stay, you can use the following stores.

Carrefour City

Address：7 Rue de Caumartin, 75009 Paris, France

Business hours: Monday – Saturday 07:00~21:00, Sunday 9:00~13:00

MONOPRIX

Business hours: Monday to Saturday 09:00~22:00, Sunday 11:00~19:00

How to get to Charles de Gaulle Airport

From Charles de Gaulle Airport to Hotel Caumartin, it is convenient to take the Roissy Bus.

The Roissy bus stops slightly behind the Opera House, as shown on the map.

From there, take Rue Aubert, cross the street, continue on Rue Boudreaux, and you will soon reach Rue Caumartin.

It takes less than five minutes to get there from the bus stop, so you’ll be there in no time.

Other than the Roissy bus, there are other means of transportation such as the RER B line, but it is a long way to the North Station and you will need to travel again.

You can read more about Roissy Bus here.

Summary

As with the Hotel Astra that I mentioned before, the main attraction is its location.

If you take the Roissy bus from Charles de Gaulle airport, you can arrive without any problems even if you are a first time visitor to Paris.

The Louvre, Tuileries Park, and Place de la Concorde are all within walking distance, so even those who are worried about public transportation can enjoy sightseeing in Paris.

Of course, it is also very convenient to travel by public transportation.

Several metros and buses are available, and the RER A line will take you to Disneyland Paris without any transfers.

Anyway, I can recommend Hotel Caumartin Opera to both first-timers and repeat visitors.

If you are looking for a hotel to stay in Paris, please consider it as a candidate.

I’m sure you will have a great time.

The Hotel Astra next door is also part of the Astotel group, but the rates are basically lower at the Hotel Caumartin Opera.

(May be higher depending on availability)

I can recommend both hotels without any problem, but if you choose the one with the best price, I’d say Hotel Caumartin Opera.

If I had to choose one based on overall service, it would be Hotel Astra Opera.

For those who don’t mind spending money, I would recommend Hotel Astra Opera.

Thank you again for reading to the end of this article.

The Astra Hotel is one of the most convenient hotels in the Astotel Hotel Group, which is a must stay in Paris.

It is only a few minutes’ walk from the Roissy bus stop, which arrives directly from Charles de Gaulle airport, and travelers will be happy to know that Galeries Lafayette and Printemps are only a few minutes away.

For more information about the Astotel Hotel Group, please read the article above.

I think you will find that it is incomparably more attractive than other hotels in Paris in the same price range.

Anyway, it’s full of free benefits, so please check it out.

Exterior

The exterior is very simple, and to be honest, it doesn’t have much of a four-star hotel feel to it.

Because of its location, there are many stores and hotels lined up in old buildings, so the buildings themselves are not unique.

If you don’t look carefully, you might even pass by it.

There is also Hôtel Caumartin Opéra, a member of the Astotel group, next door, so be sure not to confuse the two.

Hotel Lobby

From the small size of the entrance, it is hard to imagine the spaciousness of the inside.

After passing through the automatic door, you will find the reception counter on your right and a spacious rest area on your left.

There is a large elevator at the end of the hallway.

There is plenty of room for four suitcases and two adults.

Room

This time, we stayed in a twin room.

It’s a regular twin room, but quite spacious.

It was spacious enough to spread out four suitcases and still have room to spare.

However, due to room availability, we were guided to a slightly larger twin room, so I think we may be guided to a smaller twin room.

Still, there was plenty of room to spread out my suitcase.

The closet has a door and is more than large enough.

There are shelves and a safety box, so I have no complaints.

There is also a bedside table with plenty of space.

The other night we stayed in a slightly prettier pink bed.

The bedside is as spacious as ever.

However, it is a little troublesome that there is no electrical outlet near the bedside.

The electrical outlets are located under the wall.

All drinks in the refrigerator are free.

They are replenished daily, which is a great help during your stay.

The bathroom is large enough.

The size and depth of the tub is fine.

However, there are no shower curtains or glass doors to prevent water leakage, so you need to be careful when taking a shower.

If you shower normally, the floor will be flooded, so you need to sit in the bathtub and take a shower.

One of the attractions of Astotel hotels is that they offer ALGOTHERM amenities.

This ALGOTHERM product is developed based on marine ingredients, and I highly recommend it for its fragrance and comfort.

The view from the room is not very special if you are facing inward.

The view from the upper floors on the street side will give you a sense of Paris.

There is not much to see, but if this is your first visit to Paris, I think you will enjoy it a bit.

If it’s not crowded, you can request it.

Breakfast

If you book through the official website of the Astotel Hotel, all plans include breakfast, so no fee is required.

The breakfast room is located by the elevator.

The breakfast room is a gorgeous place with red chairs.

The menu is extensive and includes freshly squeezed juices, Volvic, and sparkling water, BADOIT.

There are more kinds of bread than you can eat.

Baguettes, croissants, pain au chocolat, etc.

They are all very tasty.

Butter, honey, and Nutella are also available in neat little portions.

Cereals are also available, of course.

Boiled eggs, yogurt, and a variety of fruit punch are also available.

You can also enjoy a variety of jams.

The way it is served on a small plate is stylish and nice.

Of course, there is also a wide selection of cheese and ham.

Coffee will be poured for you when the staff asks for your room number.

It’s nice to be able to drink freshly brewed coffee, but it’s a little delicate for me, as I like to have a sip of coffee first.

Also, if you want another refill, you will have to wait a bit if the staff is not in the breakfast room.

Refreshments

Refreshments, which begin at 2:00 p.m., can be taken at leisure in the large space.

Drinks include coffee brewed in an espresso machine and a variety of teas.

There is juice and water, of course.

There is also a small selection of breads such as croissants and madeleines, as well as fruits and sweets.

Hotel Astra is a 4-star hotel, but the snack menu is not much different from other 3-star Astotel Group hotels.

Surrounding Attractions

Although there are not many convenience stores around Hotel Astra, it is only a few minutes walk to the gourmet floor of Printemps and the gourmet pavilion of Galeries Lafayette, so it is not particularly inconvenient.

In addition, there is a Carrefour in front of the hotel on Cormartin Street, which is very convenient for buying small groceries.。

There is also a large supermarket, Monoprix, at the end of Printemps, which is a good place to buy souvenirs.

Please note that both stores have short opening hours on Sundays.

How to get to Charles de Gaulle Airport

From Charles de Gaulle Airport to Hotel Astra, it is convenient to take the Roissy Bus.

The Roissy bus stops slightly behind the Opera House, as shown on the map.

From there, take Rue Aubert, cross the street and continue on Rue Boudreaux, which will soon lead you to Rue Cormartin.

From the Roissy bus stop, it takes less than five minutes to get there, so you’ll be there in no time.

Other than the Roissy bus, there are other means of transportation such as the RER B line, but it is a long way to the North Station and you will need to travel again.

Summary

Hotel Astra is one of the top hotels in the Astotel group and has a high level of satisfaction, but the most attractive feature of Hotel Astra is its location.

The two major department stores in Paris, Printemps and Galeries Lafayette, are less than a five-minute walk away, and Tuileries Park and the Louvre are also well within walking distance.

The cost performance is also quite high, especially since you can visit quite a few sightseeing spots on foot without using public transportation.

Of course, it’s also very easy to get around Paris and the suburbs by bus, metro, or RER.

The Metro is very close to the Opera and the Madeleine, so you can easily get anywhere you need to go.

The AUBER station on the RER is also just a few minutes’ walk away, making access to Disneyland Paris and other destinations very convenient.

Although the Hotel Astra has such a high level of satisfaction, it is not without its problems.

That said, the room rates are higher than other Astra Group hotels.

Of course, this is unavoidable because of the location and the fact that it is a four-star hotel, but…

For those who want to enjoy this convenience and service at a slightly lower price, I recommend the Hotel Co-Martin Opera Astotel next door, which I mentioned briefly in the article.

If you are new to Paris and are looking for a hotel with a good location, good service, and a reasonable price, I can confidently recommend Hotel Astra, so if you have the chance, please try to stay there at least once.

Thank you again for reading to the end of this article.

The Astoria Hotel is a member of the Astotel Hotel Group, which is the most recommended hotel in Paris.

The location is close to the San Lazare train station and only one bus ride away from the Opera.

The service and the comfort level of the stay are definitely excellent, and, it is more affordable than other Astotel hotels, so please make it a candidate for your next trip.

For more information about the Astotel Hotel Group, please read the article above.

I think you will find that it is incomparably more attractive than other hotels in Paris in the same price range.

Anyway, it’s full of free benefits, so please check it out.

Exterior

The exterior, facing the Rue du Mosque, is simple and blends in with the Parisian cityscape.

As with all Astotel hotels, the serene atmosphere is also the charm of this hotel.

Even on weekdays, Mosque Street is very quiet and relaxing as there are very few cars passing by.

Even though it is only a short distance from the center of the city, this tranquility is priceless.

Hotels in the center of the city are convenient for many things, but they can also be noisy and uncomfortable with cars and people coming and going until late at night, but the Hotel Astoria is not like that.

Hotel Lobby & Hallway

As soon as you enter the hotel, the reception desk is on your left.

The reception desk is bright and cheerful, making it a pleasant place to check in.

The staff is very cheerful and pleasant, so there is nothing to worry about.

They will tell you the breakfast time, check-out time, etc.

The wifi password will also be given to you when you check in, so don’t forget to check it.

The photo shows the corridor past the reception desk to the elevator.

There is one elevator on the right in the front, and a wider one on the right in the back.

The elevator used depends on the room number, so please check in advance.

The elevator in front that I used is very narrow.

It looks like a commercial elevator, and you have to pull the door in front of you to get in.

The doors are doubled.

As you can see in the picture, it will be brighter when the door at the back opens, then open the door.

The mirror makes it look spacious, but it fills up with two suitcases and one adult.

If you are departing in the morning and want to use this elevator, it is recommended that you prepare well in advance.

In front of the elevator, on the left side, there is a Parisian spiral staircase.

The photo was taken from the fourth floor.

It is quite steep, so it is a bit difficult to climb.

To the right of the pillar is the breakfast and snack area.

It is quite spacious and has plenty of seating available.

Room

The room we stayed in this time was a twin room.

The room is small, as is typical of Paris, but cleanliness, etc. is fine.

However, the pillow was too soft.

There is a shower curtain so the hot water will not splash around.

It is rare for the Astotel group to have shower curtains.

It was nice to have a pot and coffee and tea.

There is also a refrigerator, naturally, containing free drinks.

Evian, Badoa, Tropicana orange juice, and Coke.

There are few hotels in Paris that offer this level of service.

Of course, a safety box is provided.

The only disappointment in the Hotel Astoria was the closet.

The door was not attached.

This may vary from room to room, but it would have been nice to have closet doors.

Breakfast

Breakfast is more than enough.

It is a buffet style, so you can eat as much as you like.

Overall, the place is as lively as the picture.

Even if it is a bit crowded, there are plenty of seats so you can eat in peace.

The staff is also very efficient, so there are no dishes left on the table for any length of time.

The bread corner offers baguettes, croissants, and pain au chocolat.

You will need to cut the baguette into pieces by yourself.

Pain de mie can be baked in a toaster.

Warm scrambled eggs, ham and sausage.

I’m glad it’s not cold.

This is cold ham, salami and cheese.

Kellogg’s cereal is also available in three varieties.

There are also three kinds of Tropicana juices available.

Coffee is poured by yourself.

The pot with the black lid is coffee.

The silver pot is hot water.

The red pot is the hot milk.

In addition, various types of yogurt, butter, and honey are also available.

There are no salads, but overall, the breakfast is very satisfying.

However, the content is the same day after day, so you may get bored if you stay many nights in a row.

Snacks

One of the attractions of the Astotel group is the free refreshments that begin at 2pm.

If you go out first thing in the morning and stop by the hotel after a day of sightseeing, you will be very happy to know that drinks and snacks are available for free.

A few snacks, cookies, candies.

Depending on the day, madeleines and tarts are available.

Juices, water, and cola are also available.

The downside is that it’s not in the fridge.

A wide variety of teas are available.

Of course, coffee is also available in the same form as in the morning.

However, no hot milk is available.

I really appreciate the fact that so much is available for free.

Hotel Astoria has a lot of seating and a lot of space, so you can relax and enjoy your stay.

Surrounding Attractions

The mosque street in front of the hotel is quiet, but there are several convenience stores nearby, making it a very comfortable place to stay.

Note that business hours are drastically changed on Sundays, so be careful if you are leaving on Monday.

How to get to Charles de Gaulle Airport

When staying at the Hotel Astoria, you may be wondering how to get from the airport to the hotel.

The Hotel Astoria is located around the top of the San Lazare station, so the most convenient way to get there is to take the Roissy bus.

However, it is impractical to walk from the Opera, where the Roissy buses arrive, because it is quite a distance away.

If you have little or no luggage, such as suitcases, you can walk if you try hard enough.

The best way to get there is to take a bus.

The Roissy bus arrives at the side of the Opera, in the direction of Printemps.

From there, take the bus line 66 from Gluck – Haussmann, the bus stop on the other side of the Opera.

Even if you have suitcases and other luggage, the distance you have to travel is very short, so you won’t have much trouble.

After that, get off at the Bucarest bus stop near the hotel, and you will be at the Hotel Astoria in a few minutes on foot.

It depends on the traffic jam, but you should expect to spend around 10 minutes on the bus.

The cheapest and easiest way to get back to Charles de Gaulle Airport is to take the same route as you came.

However, if you don’t have enough time for your return flight, or if you have a lot of luggage, or if you are on a budget, you may want to take a cab.

Summary

The Astoria Hotel is one of the Astotel Group’s most convenient hotels, within walking distance of San Lazare Station, Printemps and Lafayette.

If you are planning to go somewhere from Saint Lazare station during your stay, you can walk to the station, which makes it easier to plan.

The area around the hotel is very safe and quiet, so I think you can spend your stay in Paris with peace of mind.

However, if you are planning to go somewhere from Gare du Nord or Gare de Lyon during your stay, it may be a little inconvenient.

If you plan to explore around the North Station or the Marais area, you may want to consider other hotels in the Astotel group.

If you don’t like to use public transportation, we recommend you to stay at one of the Astotel Group hotels near the Opera, as you will need to take the metro or bus to see Paris.

Overall, the hotel is highly recommended, and I hope you will consider it as a candidate for your stay when you travel to Paris.

Thank you again for reading to the end of this article.

The Astotel Hotel is a good choice for sightseeing in Paris.

The Acadia Hotel is very close to the center of the city, making it convenient to go anywhere.

Of course, the service is also full of charms that you won’t find in other hotels, so please make it a candidate for your next stay.

For more information about the Astotel Hotel Group, please read this article.

I think you will find that it is incomparably more attractive than other hotels in Paris in the same price range.

Anyway, it’s full of free benefits, so please check it out.

Exterior

The exterior of the hotel is simple, but clean and very pleasing.

The entrance is wide and automatic, so it’s easy to get in and out even if you have a lot of suitcases.

When you arrive, press the intercom in the center of the image, and a staff member will open the door from inside.

Hotel Lobby

The lobby of the hotel is very spacious.

The place with the red wall on the left is the front desk.

There is an elevator at the end of the hall on the left side.

It’s not very big, but it can hold two adults and four suitcases.

This elevator is large enough for Paris.

There is a sofa in the back where you can relax.

There is fruit on the sofa side.

Of course, you can eat them, so feel free to do so.

To the left as you enter the hotel is the Open Bar.

You can drink free coffee from a Segafredo Zanetti espresso machine.

On the right hand side, tea is also available in a variety of flavors.

On the left is a refrigerator where you can drink anything from mineral water to orange juice and cola for free.

There is a dining table on the left, where cakes and breads are served free of charge as snacks.

On this day, it was an apple tart.

It was a little sweet, but it was delicious.

Room

This is a hotel in Paris, so don’t expect it to be very spacious.

However, it is a standard twin room, and you can spread out your suitcase on the floor, so I would say it is spacious enough.

The bedside lamp at the back of the room has an outlet for USB connection.

Other than that, the power plugs are French style, so if you have items that need to be recharged, you will need a conversion plug.

This is another room.

I have stayed here many times, and all the rooms are beautiful and clean.

There is a wall-mounted TV and a desk.

On the desk, there is a coffee pot and two mugs, and in the drawer, instant coffee and tea.

The instant coffee is full of service as it contains both regular and decaf coffee.

This is another day’s stay.

A clean room feels good.

The mini-bar refrigerator can be seen below.

You can drink the four soft drinks inside for free every day.

It is a tall refrigerator, so it can hold enough butter, yogurt, salad, etc. to be purchased at the supermarket.

The closet is not large, but the door closes properly.

Some hotels in Paris do not have closets, so please be careful when choosing a hotel.

The washroom is also a good size.

It is large enough to be the center of Paris.

Bathtubs are available in all rooms.

Breakfast

Breakfast is buffet style, with a wide variety of menu items.

There are always three or four kinds of juice available, including orange and apple.

The main breads are baguettes, croissants, and pain au chocolat.

There was a small crepe.

There are several normal types of hams.

There are sausages, scrambled eggs, boiled eggs, etc.

There are very few salads, just tomatoes and cucumbers.

The main fruit item is fruit punch.

There is a wide variety of yogurt available, including plain and strawberry.

There are not that many nuts.

For coffee, espresso machines are available, but American coffee in a pot is also available.

Milk is also available in a pot as well.

There is a wide variety of food on the menu, but since the menu is basically the same every day, you can only eat for about three days without getting bored.

I think it depends on the individual, but those who don’t mind can continue eating it for even a week.

There was no particular problem with the breakfast, but there was one big problem.

That’s the mug in the photo here.

It’s stylish, but very hard to hold.

If you are a little careless, you might drop it.

This is the only thing I never got used to, even though I drank it every day.

Surrounding Attractions

Across the street from the hotel is a rather large convenience store called franprix, where you can buy anything you need.

This franprix is closed on Sundays and open until 9:00 p.m. on weekdays, so if you want to shop late at night, on Sundays, or on holidays, monoprix is a few minutes walk away.

How to get to Charles de Gaulle Airport

One of the biggest concerns when staying at Acadia Hotel is how to get from the airport to the hotel.

I think most people will be transferred from Charles de Gaulle airport to Paris city, but how to get to the hotel is a big problem no matter where you stay.

You can find more information on how to get from Charles de Gaulle Airport to Paris here.

It will be easier to understand if you see it beforehand.

The location of the Acadia Hotel is right about halfway between the Opera House and North Station.

If you want to travel from Charles de Gaulle airport, the choice would be Roissy bus or RER B line.

The Roissy bus arrives at the Opera House.

The RER B line arrives at North Station.

The advantages and disadvantages of each of these are described in the article I mentioned earlier, but in conclusion, you can walk from either station.

I think most people have one suitcase, so I don’t think it will be a problem.

(I always have two suitcases.)

However, it is never close from either side.

It’s a distance that I can barely walk with my luggage.

Also, I think the weight of your suitcase will be lighter on the way there, so I think you can manage to hang on.

And if anything, the problem is how to get around on the way back.

If your suitcase becomes quite heavy or you have more other luggage, walking around will be quite difficult.

Especially if you are going to the North Station, the road from the Acadia Hotel to the North Station is a gentle uphill, so it may be twice as strenuous as going there.

Therefore, the recommended way is to take the Roissy bus from the Opera House to Charles de Gaulle Airport.

However, it is still quite a distance, if not uphill, to the Roissy bus stop.

It is very difficult to travel this distance with luggage, so we recommend taking the bus.

I think the best way to get around would be to take a regular bus once, go to the Opera, and change to the Roissy bus.

Line 45

The first way is to use bus line 45.

It’s a bit of a walk from the Acadia Hotel, but if you take the back roads, you can get there on a road with less traffic.

Take a bus from this Le Peletier / Haussmann and get off at Opera.

Also, the Opera stop on line 45 is right behind the Roissy bus stop, so there is very little travel after you get off.

You don’t have to move through the crowds around the Opera, so you can transfer to the Roissy bus very comfortably.

For more information on how to get on the bus and a map of the 45 route, please see below.

Line 20

And the closest bus stop to the hotel will be on line 20.

When you arrive at the opera, you will have to walk a bit, but if you have a lot of luggage, this is the way to go.

Bus stop: Grands Boulevards.

Walk down Rue Faubourg Montmartre and turn left on Rue Montmartre.

Line 20 has a lot of buses, so I don’t think there will be much of a wait.

The drop-off stop is Auber.

It’s a bit of a walk to the Roissy bus stop, but it’s only a little over 100 meters.

Turn the corner and you’re at the Roissy bus stop, so you won’t get lost.

Although not mentioned in the above article, if you have too much luggage, try to get in through the drop-off door instead of getting in from the front.

It is recommended that you allow plenty of time to get to the bus stop.

If you are worried about getting around, don’t hesitate to take a cab.

Summary

How was it?

The Acadia Hotel is convenient to everywhere you go.

Several subway stations can be reached in a few minutes.

Also, for those who don’t mind walking, the area around the Opera, where Galeries Lafayette and Printemps are located, and the area around the Louvre are well within walking distance.

For those who prefer to eat out, there are many restaurants around the hotel that are open until late, so you will rarely have a problem finding a meal.

There are also many convenience stores nearby, so you won’t have any trouble finding souvenirs.

The only problem with the Acadia Hotel is how to get to Charles de Gaulle Airport.

I think you can manage the way there, but the way back will be a bit more challenging, so please don’t overdo it and choose a method of transportation that suits your convenience.

Thank you again for reading to the end of this article.

One of the most difficult things about sightseeing in Paris is choosing a hotel.

There are a variety of accommodations ranging from the finest hotels to private accommodations, but hotels in Paris are generally more expensive than in other cities, and the rooms are smaller and the service is sometimes not as good.

An enjoyable trip can be ruined if the hotel is uncomfortable.

The Astotel Hotel, which I will introduce to you this time, is a hotel that will solve all of your worries.

The hotel offers a variety of services that you won’t find in other hotels, so please consider it as a candidate for your next trip.

ASTOTEL HOTEL

Features of ASTOTEL HOTEL

Features

The Astotel Hotel is also a very reputable hotel that offers a wide range of services.

• All rooms are provided with free breakfast if you book through the official website.
• Free wifi
• All minibars in the rooms are free (soft drinks only)
• Free snacks and drinks every afternoon as an open bar.
• You can join the ASTO TOUR.

All of these are attractive suggestions, but the bottom three in particular are services that are not often found in other hotels.

Every room has a refrigerator.

All Astotel Group hotels have a refrigerator in every room.

Hotels in the U.S. always have refrigerators, but in Paris, most hotels do not have refrigerators.

Many hotels, even four-star ones, do not have refrigerators.

The most appealing thing about having a refrigerator is that you can keep the food you buy cold.

France is a land of gastronomy, so there are many things to buy as souvenirs.

There are so many things I want to take home with me that I can’t even begin to list examples.

Of course, these ingredients need to be refrigerated.

If you don’t have a refrigerator, you’ll have to ask the hotel to keep these foods for you after you buy them.

There is the language barrier, but more than that, I’m not sure if it’s being managed properly.

It is a great thing to have a refrigerator in the room to reduce such risks.

Also, on hot summer days, without a refrigerator, you cannot keep the drinks you buy cold.

Just having a refrigerator can make your stay in Paris so much more comfortable.

Minibar replenished daily

A further feature of the Astotel group is that they replenish the refrigerator with soft drinks daily.

It’s a little hard to believe, but all the soft drinks in the fridge are free of charge.

And they replenish it every day.

And the contents in the refrigerator are also wonderful.

• Mineral water (Evian)
• Coke (Pepsi)
• Orange juice (Tropicana)
• Soda water (BADOIT)

These four bottles are included free of charge every day.

As you will find when you stay in a hotel in Paris, it is really helpful to have these drinks when you arrive or when you come back from going out.

Especially for those who arrive late in Paris, it can be a hassle to check in and then go out again.

It is really helpful to have drinks in the room at such times.

Open bar daily

The term ” Open Bar” may be unfamiliar to you, but it is a service unique to the Astotel Hotel.

This service provides complimentary snacks and drinks at the hotel lobby every afternoon.

Although the content varies slightly from hotel to hotel, the service is highly satisfactory.

• Coffee by espresso machine (many kinds, even decaf)
• Tea (many kinds)
• Cakes
• Pain au chocolat and other breads
• Various soft drinks
• Fruits

It’s not a large quantity, but the fact that this content is provided free of charge is unbelievable compared to other hotels.

When you come back to the hotel, it would be very different if you don’t have this kind of small snack.

Also, you don’t have to buy anything extra, so it feels like you are saving more than the cost of your stay.

The first time you stay at the Astotel Hotel, you will be a little surprised.

There are a few other hotels in Paris that offer this kind of service, but there are few hotels in the same price range that can match the quality and quantity of the Astotel Hotel.

Join the ASTO TOUR

You might think that I’m going to visit some tourist spots, but of course I’m not.

As I mentioned earlier, Astotel Hotel operates 17 hotels in Paris.

And all of them have Open Bar.

During your stay, you can use the Open Bar at all 17 of these hotels.

Some of you may wonder what’s so great about that, but it’s really great.

Again, below is a map of the Astotel hotels in Paris.

As you can see from this, the Astotel Hotel is in a very convenient location.

If you are touring the right bank of the Seine, you can stop at any of them.

If you stop by on your way to the Louvre, the Opera, the Arc de Triomphe, or the Marais, you can have a snack and a drink for free.

It’s definitely more relaxing than taking a break at some unknown cafe or restaurant.

Also, considering that the toilet situation in Paris is not so good, the fact that you can use clean toilets for free is a big attraction.

As mentioned above, I think you can save a lot of money by using Asto Tour well.

Such an attractive tour is only available at the Astotel Hotel.

You may or may not be given a postcard-sized card for the Asto Tour.

If you can’t get one, you can ask the front desk, but if it’s too much trouble, you don’t have to have one.

The key card in your room is a special card key for the Astotel Hotel, and you can use it by showing it to the front desk of the hotel you are visiting.

In my case, I was able to use it without any particular confirmation, but I think it depends on the case, so you should be prepared to show it.

If you are told that it is not available, it may be a hassle, but try asking the hotel you are staying at to give you an ASTOTOUR card again.

Summary

It’s very difficult to find a good hotel in Paris.

If you’ve ever searched for a hotel in Paris yourself, you know that there are quite a few options to choose from, depending on what your priorities are.

The following are some basic points to consider when choosing a hotel.

• Price
• Size of the room
• Cleanliness
• Availability of bathtub
• Location
• Breakfast
• Elevator
• Luggage storage

In addition, I think the best way to choose the best hotel would be to judge it based on the overall word-of-mouth ratings from Booking.com, Expedia, TripAdvisor, etc.

Even if you write down the criteria and describe the method in this way, you will still be very confused and unable to decide which hotel to choose unless you know the area well.

If you are wondering what to do in such a situation, please consider the Astotel Hotel.

Whether you choose a hotel based on transportation from the airport or on budget, you are sure to find a hotel that meets your needs.

If the price is slightly higher than other hotels, it may be cheaper if you take into account the cost of food and drinks during your stay.

And most importantly, the staff at the Astotel Hotel are very pleasant, so you will have a pleasant stay.

I hope this article will be of some help to you when choosing a hotel in Paris.

Thank you again for reading to the end of this article.
