Very small room, Bathroom very tiny. (Like airplane bathrooms) shower super small!! No coffee maker or tea kettle. Beds need new mattress. Location was nice close to metros and buses. Will not stay in this hotel unless you’re traveling by your self. (Hallway to the room super narrow.

Great location for Paris. Close to central Metro stations for access to the whole of Paris with ease. Room was fairly small, but perfectly clean and modern. Reception team were really friendly and helpful..even at 2am! Very lively location with bars that open into early hours. Recommeneded for a functional budget option.

Hotel daval is a budget hotel in a trendy party area. It is clean inside - modern and rooms are reasonably sized. The staff actually helped my kids and I to the corner of the street when we needed to get a taxi. in the rain! It’s important to know this area of bastille is bustling so if u r in Paris to party this is a great place for a reasonable price. Safe and has nice eateries across the road. request a higher floor if you want an early night in.

Great budget hotel. Excellent location.
Clean and friendly hotel at an excellent location near the fun 11th arrondissement and Le Marais neighborhood. Room is small but spotless, and at an excellent price point for the neighborhood in the off season. Plenty of excellent patisseries and third wave coffee shops nearby, and a mix of funky and traditional eateries.

Near multiple Metro stop makes this a convenient location especially if you’re coming from Gare de l’Est station. Close to Richard Lenoir Thur / Sunday farmers market if you’re looking for local foods. Right around the corner from excellent bakery (aux 2 angels), get your pastries fix there. Hotel itself is dated in decor and low on amenities, but acceptable for its price and location. Front desk is friendly and helpful, you can leave your luggage there for the day after you check out which makes it handy to go around Paris if you have a late train or flight to catch.

Great budget hotel in a great area. Easily access to multiple metro lines, easy 20 minute walk to the city center. Bastille itself is also a very lively nightlife area. Rooms were small but clean and comfortable. They are doing some renovations on the lower floors, so improvements coming!

Perfect for the solo traveler
After reading some of the complaints: 1. The elevator is tiny but it’s very common for tiny elevators to be installed in older buildings that were built before elevators existed. 2. The stairs are narrow and dark but hardly a death trap. 3. The rooms are small but this is standard in almost any hotel in Paris unless you have booked a deluxe $500 per night room. Overall the staff was wonderful. I was in a great location and my room and the horel were very clean. I would definitely come back here for another solo trip.

Very well situated and my room overlooked a charming rear courtyard. The bathroom and the lift a bit small as is the room so as long as you don't have too much baggage it's perfect. Such a typical part of Paris, you walk out your door and boom, charming streets and cafes.

Based on our initial impression, we wouldn’t have rated this hotel high at all, but we misjudged it. Since they were full, we weren’t able to get the room we booked the first night. The first room didn’t suit our needs and it was rather noisy. In fact, we hardly slept at all. That all changed the next night. The staff moved us to a different room the second night. It suited our needs perfectly, and was very quiet. We slept like babies. The property is old, but they strive to maintain what they have. There was a soft spot in the floor in our room. The first night, there were also several hairs on the bedding. They were not in the inside though - just on the outside. Other than that, both rooms we stayed in were very clean. There is an elevator, but it is very small. Just keep that in mind. The location is quite convenient to getting around in Paris. You can get breakfast there, but we didn’t eat there. There are plenty of restaurants within a block of the hotel. The staff was absolutely wonderful. They definitely strive hard to accommodate their guests needs and make their stay excellent. I can’t speak highly enough about them. They stored our luggage for us on the last day of our stay, which was very convenient for us. Upon first impression, we wouldn’t have recommended this hotel, but after that first night, we did a complete 180. We really enjoyed our stay there and can definitely recommend this hotel to other travelers.

Great front desk staff!
We were pleased with our stay at this hotel. Everything was clean, and in a good neighborhood to walk to the metro, or get to anywhere else in Paris, the front desk clerk was so very helpful and gracious with all of our needs, we appreciated her smile and willingness to answer our many questions. We were able to leave our bags there before check-in the first day and after checking out the next day to explore more of Paris before leaving for the airport. This was a budget hotel that suited all of her needs.

Pleased with our stay
Having read previous reviews I was a little hesitant but really shouldn’t have been. The hotel was very clean, comfortable and just what we needed for our stay. Our room faced the courtyard so no issues with noise. The area was lively but we felt very safe. Easy to get to from the metro and staff were helpful with any enquiry we had. Would definitely book there again.

I recommend requesting a room on the 4th floor facing the courtyard. If your room is facing the street, the noise of the street will bother you. The area is known to be quite rowdy and late night shenanigans. We had to change our room, after the second night because the sewer smell from the toilet was unbearable. The hotel offered no discount for the inconvenience of having to spend our time packing up our things and waiting several hours to be directed to another room. The hair dryer in the second room malfunctioned and the hotel offered no solution or discount. The rooms and bathrooms are clean but extremely small. Very minimal decor, nor comfort, no fridge, no coffee machine. It was absolutely overpriced and underwhelming. The staff however was exceptionally nice and helpful. One morning the hotel couldn’t prepare the breakfast and we had to wait 45 min, another day the milk was badly spoilt and they did offer a credit. The croissants are divine, it’s a reasonable $9 for breakfast, simple but good. The elevator fits maximum 2 slim people. The stairway and corridors are very very narrow and claustrophobic. Would I stay at Hotel Daval again? No, because the price is far too high for what they offer.

We bookwd for 2 nights. First night the air conditioner wasn't working.We opened the windows but then it noisy...close the windows, it got hot. Therefore our sleep was interrupted and our stay was uncomfortable. Next day, we asked for a change of rooms or get the ac fixed. After we waited we were presented with a room..we just collected the keys and transfer our stuff and left as we had meetings to attend. We came back late and when we tried to sleep, the samething happened with ac. We give up as it was late. Luckily, the new room was facing the back, so it was less noisy and we were able.to get some breeze and some sleep to awaken at 5am to leave for another flight.

Highly recommended!
Hotel.Daval was a great.place to stay in a lovely, central area with everything you need to hand and Bastille is a great location for exploring Paris. The room seemed newly refurbished and well designed for maximum comfort in a small space. It was very clean and all staff pleasant and helpful. I had a single room; the bed was comfortable and there was desk space with a chair, enough room for a suitcase and to hang some clothes and a safe for valuables. The wet room was well designed and hot water whenever I needed it. The windows opened, when closed the noise of the pretty lovely street was blocked. There was a heater (not needed for my May visit) but I didn't see any air conditioning, that might be a problem mid summer.
Wet room. Toilet, sink and shower.
Single bed with desk and windows opening to the street. Space for a case and clothes hanging ( and a safe) beyond the desk.

I would stay here again in a heart beat! Fabulous lively neighborhood, two nearby subway stations and bus huts, lots of restuarants to choose from. The room was lovely and quiet. I would have liked to have two extra pillows (there was one). The breakfast room was good with lots of goodies, although I did miss having a "coffee" machines.

The hotel was located at a convenient area for transportation and restaurants. The receptionists were very kind. However, we got a small room that was facing the street in a very bar-heavy area. We could hear people talking and barfing and gagging, and cars driving by well into the early morning hours. The room was very small and hard to walk if you have a lot of luggages.

Property is not as close to the center of town as we expected. It is in a university area and has nightclubs and some ok restaurants in the area. The actual room is not great but doable. Has more of the feel of a Motel than a Hotel. You get what you pay for. It is not a bad place to stay but it is not the best option.
