Hôtel des Batignolles

This hotel is what it says it is — a budget-​friendly hotel. Don’t expect anything fancy or exquisite when you stay here. What you CAN expect is friendly service at reception, a clean room, good linen and towels (which are not changed daily, so expect to be environmentally-​friendly and reuse them) and a great location. It’s a 5 min walk to the Metro, cafes of all varieties are around, and you are close enough to get to the Cite quickly but far enough away to not be bothered with constant noise and vagabonds about. We didn’t purchase the extra breakfast (my husband and I stayed there), but bought pastries at local shops and had our café crème in a local shop. Our train left late at night and the hotel was happy to keep our luggage in a secure location all day for us after we checked out. We highly recommend Hotel des Batignolles and have stayed there multiple times.

The hotel’s not much, but it’s conveniently located near the Métro and the neighborhood has a few great bakeries, restaurants, and grocery stores. I stayed with my boyfriend here for a week over the Christmas holiday and our room was on the second floor. Though the hotel had thin walls, it wasn’t much of a problem for us at night. Wifi was reliable and speedy during our entire stay, which was great. The front-​desk people were also helpful and polite. Our bathroom light didn’t work when we arrived, but after we mentioned it to them, it was fixed the next day.
The only thing is that the front desk does have this strange practice of asking you to give them your key when you leave for the day and then giving it back to you when you return. I am not sure why this policy is in place, because they don’t verify your identity when you ask for the key, so if it’s for «security» I am unconvinced of the effectiveness.
Regardless, our rooms were clean and the bathrooms had strong showers. Though it was chilly in Paris, our room had adequate heating and the bedding was sufficient. It is a very basic, economic hotel, but it’s great for being in a safe, pleasant Parisian neighborhood that has great access to the popular sights.
We did not eat breakfast at the hotel and I’m glad we didn’t because the chocolate croissants and almond croissants at the bakery at the end of the street (turn left when exiting the hotel and walk about 3 blocks until you see a church) were PHENOMENAL.
When we checked out, they let us keep our suitcases in a storage space until we wanted to head to the airport, so that was a great convenience. I would not hesitate to stay here again!

This place is exactly what you pay for. Don’t expect luxury… expect practicality.
The rooms are small by American standards but very normal and maybe a little bit bigger by Parisian standards. It’s in a relatively quieter part of Paris so you’ll sleep fine. The one thing you should keep a note of is that there is no elevator/​lift and their free wifi is not reliable. It’ll cut in and out and sometimes doesn’t have a good signal on your floor.
The staff is very kind and the continental breakfast is very normal. I never did see the housekeeping staff so I’m not really sure when they took care of all of that but nevertheless, the rooms were always cleaned.
One thing I loved about this hotel was that the bathroom was quite large. It was a little annoying though that they don’t have shower curtains in their rooms.

Un joli petit hôtel un peu caché, qui donne sur une charmante cour, idéal pour les séjours en amoureux dans notre belle Capitale.
Situé au plein coeur du «village des Batignolles», le quartier à la fois paisible et animé du 17ème arrondissement de Paris, cet étoile deux étoiles bénéficie d’un emplacement parfait pour visiter la ville. Montmartre est à deux pas, les Grands Magasins sont proches, les Champs-​Elysées à côté…
Vous serez accueillis avec convivialité et chaleur. Les chambres sont simples et correctes, tout comme les parties communes et la décoration générale de l’hôtel.
Un hôtel à recommander vivement aux couples pour une escapade romantique et pas trop chère à Paris. Attention ! Je déconseille aux personnes âgées et aux personnes handicapées: l’hôtel n’a pas d’ascenseur !

Hôtel bien situé à prix intéressant
