Best Western Albert 1er

This is an «it is what it is» hotel. Extremely close to the Gare du Nord train station, we picked it as a place to crash at night after a quick 1 day visit of Paris. On arrival at noon, we were allowed to check our small amount of luggage at the front desk. The hotel is about a 10 minute Über ride from the Eiffel Tower. At 10:30PM, we returned, retrieved our bags, and went to the rooms. They’re really small and cramped. A non-​smoking room had a mild stench of tobacco. Outside, the street was loud between the drunks and the familiar two-​tone sirens of French emergency vehicles. Earplugs solved that issue. The bathrooms were small but adequate. If you just need a place to sleep for one night real close to the train station, this hotel is passable and was $ 102 for the night.
