  I will be returning to this lovely little gem just three minutes walk from Gare du Nord in Paris.

  14 May 2026

  I was very pleasantly surprised when I stayed at this hotel and would certainly return in the future. It is amazingly close to both the Gare du Nord and Gare de l' Est, the latter reached by navigating several corners. I had expected it to be quite noisy as Gare du Nord is not even 5 minutes away, but the thick black-out curtains in the room and double-glazing blocked out all the street noise. It is in a busy area though, so with window open in the day it is certainly noisy. It is in a colourful part of the city but well away from most notable tourist attractions. The metro is just two minutes away so getting around is not a problem. My welcome ( Lan Nguyen?) was efficient and warm, though my emails requesting an upper room seemed to have gone astray.( I later found the replies in my spam folder when I got home! ) As there were no such rooms free, I was told, I ended up on the first floor. This was a double room, though two single beds had been pushed together, a common Continental practice, though the hotel website clearly shows the two options available.In the event I had secured a fairly last minute Spring Offer so with breakfast included was very satisfied at paying just £178 for two nights for a 3 star hotel which I think was very good value indeed. Street noise turned out not to be an issue, after all, although corridor noise was at times audible.Returning to England, I raised the matter of the double bed and was given an any time 10% discount for future use, so will be using that. Need to make sure though that it is one big bed!The lift was a quaint almost triangular mirrored little affair, certainly not meeting modern expectations. It was a tight fit for just me and a small suitcase! The building is a period property however and retains a certain faded charm. Everything though was very clean and tidy, with a smart modern bathroom.Breakfast was ample with a fair amount of choice and the popular but limited range of cooked foods ( scrambled eggs/sausages/boiled eggs ) was replenished quite quickly. You certainly would not go hungry though I did note on my first morning that the bananas were well beyond ripe.The only small gripe was that the bottled water in my room was not replaced after the first day, even though coffee etc were.I would have awarded 5 stars on the basis of value for money but the double bed issue prevented me from do so. The beds were however very comfortable and I had no issues with sleep quality.And that in a strange bed is the most important thing of all! Lan Nguyen, Directeur général at Hotel Albert 1er Paris Lafayette, responded to this review Dear Michaeld32,Thank you very much for your lovely and detailed review.We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us and appreciated our convenient location near Gare du Nord and Gare de l’Est, as well as the comfort and cleanliness of the hotel. It is especially pleasing to know that you were able to sleep well despite the lively neighbourhood. We agree that a good night’s sleep is one of the most important parts of any stay.We also thank you for your comments regarding the bed configuration and the replacement of bottled water, which we will take into consideration.

  Glad we found it!

  If you’re exhausted by the Eurostar journey when you arrive at Gare du Nord, help and comfort are only a few steps away.Weary on arrival, we were uplifted by the attitude of the Front of House Manager’s greeting. He was charm personified with a rare sense of respect and humour. Two days using this Hotel as a base was perfect in every sense of the word. The room and bathroom may have been small but comfy, just what is needed in transit. Lan Nguyen, Directeur général at Hotel Albert 1er Paris Lafayette, responded to this review Dear Dream797137,Thank you for your kind review. We’re delighted our location and warm welcome made your arrival easier after the Eurostar journey.We’re especially pleased our Front of House Manager left such a great impression, and that you found your room comfortable for your stay.We hope to welcome you back again soon!Lan NGUYENAssistant of Manager

  Good value

  19 Feb 2026

  This was a perfect little hotel for our stay. We are two older women traveling on our own. The hotel was convenient for Gare du Nord (for the Eurostar) and Gare de l’Est (for the train to Strasbourg). There are many restaurants in the neighborhood within walking distance. There is a metro station across the street which you will need if you want to see the city center sights. There are also many Uber drivers in the area so it’s easy to get a ride. The room was very neat and quiet (even on a very busy street). All the staff was extremely friendly and helpful, especially Domingo. Lan Nguyen, Directeur général at Hotel Albert 1er Paris Lafayette, responded to this review Dear Joannee,Thank you so much for your lovely and detailed review. We are truly delighted that you felt comfortable and well cared for during your stay with us.We’re pleased that our location was convenient for your travels via Gare du Nord (for the Eurostar) and Gare de l'Est (for your train to Strasbourg), and that you enjoyed the many nearby restaurants and easy access to public transport and rides.It’s especially rewarding to hear that you found your room neat and quiet despite the lively neighborhood. Your kind words about our team mean a great deal to us, and we will be sure to share your special thanks with Domingo — he will be thrilled to know he made a positive impact on your stay.We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you both back again in the future.Kind regards,
