Hotel Original Paris

Quite a centralized location with just 2 minutes from the Bastille Metro's Boulevard Beaumarchais Exit & less than 10 mins walk to the nearest Monoprix Supermarket. There is no problem to buy food whether Chinese food, fastfood or Cafes. The room is spacious, clean and comfortable completely equipped with heaters & airconditioning system. Hotel staffs are friendly and helpful.

No tea making facility. The lift is quite small, enough for only 4 persons or 2 persons with a lot of luggages at one go.

It was extremely comfortable for the money and in a great location.

Could use more space or drawers to put clothes in the room.

People at the desk were extremely helpful and patient. Helped us get taxi reservations. Very pleasant and well informed.

Good location Character Wifi worked well Decent rate Friendly and helpful staff

Heating controls didn't seem to have any effect in the room Small writing table/desk Small towels Eccentric fibre optic lighting gets in the way a bit

Fun (if a little on the tacky) decor, lovely big bed, free wifi

Bath tub was in the bedroom itself and had a handheld shower and shower curtain only which meant showering was a little tricky. But there was plenty of hot water and a great view so that made up for it.

I would really recommend this hotel! The staff were very friendly and helpful, the rooms were very stylish, clean, quiet and comfortable, the location excellent (Bastille metro is a two minute walk, le Marais 10 mins) and a good continantal breakfast was served on time to my room at no extra charge. Definitely one of the better hotels I've stayed in while in Paris.

The hotel provides Wifi free of charge, which is great. The signal on the 5th floor wasn't very strong however, which meant I had to go to reception to access the Internet from my pc.

Cosy design - athough the room was tiny (for a one short night stay not really a problem) it was designed with a real attention to detail and the space was used very smartly. The best night sleep I have ever had in weeks of business travelling :) Last floor allowed a far Tour d'Effeil view :) Did not manage to have breakfast but the restaurant room looked very nice and the staff claimed it was all organic and fresh food. I was in a hurry but there was a boulangerie next door with equally good baquettes :) Very interesting design - although each floor is designed differently so hard to evaluate the whole thing... Recommend for a short stay, for a longer - make sure where you'll be located...

Not really a minus but beware, especially if you plan for a longer stay: very very tiny room I got on the last floor (although extremally cosy and last floor gives you a truly "Parisian" view), no tea/coffee makers in the room / very tiny and slow lift (allow waiting in the morning)

Original is a fantastic hotel!! Very very clean and confortable! If I come back , sure I ll return here !

The unique problem was the lift! Too slow

Excellent location, very helpful and friendly staff, uniquely designed. I booked a single room, this was at the very top of the hôtel and had beautiful views across the Paris rooftops.

My room had a bath only (no shower) and no fridge/ minibar.
