Location: The only positive point about this Hotel is its Location. Its just across Gare du Nord, the main station of Paris. Thus its just surrounded by all types of restaurants, bars, cafes, etc. Internet : I was given a room in a corner on the 4th floor. The internet connection was not found only - my machine could not... More

I stayed there for 4 days and it was horibble. I was forced to stay there as it was an organized trip with school, but I would have gone elsewhere. Cleanliness: It wasn't very clean. There was still a lot of dust everywhere. The beds are terrible. Mine had dead bed bugs and blood stains on it. Luckily I had... More

As a fairly frequent traveller to Paris, I usually book a nearby hotel on price and convienience for Gare du Nord. On my last trip, arranged at short notice my usual hotel was full so I booked the Picardy. The Picardy will get my future business! Small reception but very friendly and excellent English. What looked like a new lift... More

Having read some fairy poor reviews about this hotel, I figured that for 2 nights, I'd risk it and see. The location was perfect, being pretty much opposite the Gare du Nord and it was cheap. Which is exactly what I wanted. I found the hotel to be totally serviceable; the room was outdated and very basic but I slept... More

I picked this hotel for an easy getaway (early Eurostar) and I didn't expect much for EUR 90 in Paris but it could definitely have been cleaner. Broken mirror, poor lighting and rooms in need of redecorating make a poor impression but it was the stains on the carpets and bathroom wall that made it really 'icky'.

It's difficult to speak negatively of a hotel that tries to be friendly in a consistent manner. In fact, they are extremely cordial. However, this hotel, although cheap and right across from the Gare du Nord train station, is an absolute dump. The walls of the room are dirty, the pillows have no separate pillow case (only the sheet of... More

The hotel is just a normal cheap Parisian hotel with shabby furniture, do not expect luxury for 70-80 Euros a night. The room was very small, as well as the bathroom. I would not recommend it if you are over-weighed or if you travel with children. The bed was big enough for a couple but it was not very comfortable... More

The hotel stay was indeed an unforgetable experience; We were on the 5th floor, the room was stuffy, and there was no proper circulation of air.... and if you dare to open the windows, all the fumes of the cars below will enter with the bombarding noise of the traffic. So you just have to resist through the night and... More

Absolutely nothing wrong with hotel at all. As cheap Paris (or any other major city) hotels go this one is as good as it gets. My room was bijou (HA!) but had all the basics required including a work desk and ensuite facilities; all the light bulbs worked, as did the freebie WiFi. Reception (having booked through booking.com) was swift... More
