Belambra City Hôtel Magendie

Great

Great place to stay and good location. Staff was cordial and caring. Hotel was as expected. Rooms typically tight for American standards, but we know they are part of the reduced space format that's normal in Europe. It was not a very big deal, although one would obviously want a larger space especially for luggage placing in the room.

The staff are good, they speak enough English to get by and fill any requests we had (hairdryer and clothes iron, both of which aren't supplied in the room. The iron is only available on the 6th floor), but the general friendliness is so-so. The location is good being about 10 easy minutes to 2 different metro stations so you can easily navigate around. The room was more a kids shoebox vs a normal shoebox. You would struggle for two people to get changed at once. The sink didn't have the plug part so if anything was to fall into it it'd go straight down the drain. The shower door didn't fully close, it would stop at about 100mm from shutting (room 407), and there's mould on the silicone in the shower. Breakfast is good, you get baguette, croissants, pain aux raisins, pain au chocolat, toast, crepes, coffee/hot chocolate/tea etc, cheese, ham, apples etc. it was quite satisfying and stocked regularly. Overall I'm not overly satisfied with my stay at Belambra City Hôtel Magendie, if the room matched the pictures in the email and the bathroom issues fixed then the rating would be higher.

Excellent stay. Rooms were immaculate, beds comfortable. Convenient for transport links.

Had a lovely stay at this hotel. The staff were very friendly and made me feel very welcome as a solo traveller. I also found the area very safe and well connected with three metro stations nearby. This feels like a stay in the less touristy side of paris and i highly recommend. Some things to note which seem unique to the hotel- the hotel tells you to leave your room keys at the hotel in case of safety and loosing your keys because of pickpockets on the metro. Seems odd but was perfectly fine and the staff let you in easy with a 24hr reception. Rooms are small but serviceable it is paris after all! But had everything i need including own bathroom and safe to store my passport no extra cost, bagagge was stored for me on checkout too. It would be nice if the hotel added tea/coffee making facilities to have after a trip out. It would also be good to have a fridge to use. Thanks for making my first solo trip to Paris Great! Emily

It was a very good experience, i m very happy , with my staying there, honest, very clean, personal 100% efficient

Good Hotel

No vending machines on site. I had to leave hotel to get soda, water or snack

Great location, nice staff, Emmanuela, Yannick, and everyone at the front desk are super helpful and very kind. Location is a 10 min walk to metro stations, 5 min walk to the bus, and the neighborhood felt very safe. Good breakfast.

Very small room. You could hardly walk around the bed. There were only about 18" on all sides of the bed.

Stayed for one night, the room was good with a big window and a comfortable bathroom size. Keys didnt work from first try which was annoying because i was super tired that day. And after breakfast they didn’t allow me to take coffee to the room which felt very strange to me. But overall all it was a good stay.

Enjoyed my stay at the Belambra City Hotel Magendie! I recommend staying here, it was a nice, quiet, and calm area close to the center but far enough that it felt safe. I would say that the place isn't as flexible as others, but overall great qualities to stay in whenever you go to Paris. I would stay here again.

Excellent hotel, with incredibly friendly staff. Located in a very convenient location for the metro and RER. Very good value for money.

Lovely hotel with very helpful staff. Great buffet breakfast of bread, cheese, ham, yoghurt, pastries and fruit juices among others. Highly recommended

Very dirty

It was very clean and comfortable, Altho. there was no air conditioning, there were two fans provided. The bathroom fitments were perfectly clean and usable but probably in comparison to more modern hotels the tiling and counters showed signs of wear and tear. I did not mind but if you are fussy , probably not for you.

For a busy summer and hot, they should have fans a least, the first floor windows can’t be open al night when is big enough to someone access to the room

Stayed for 5 nights for the Olympic Games, all the staff were very friendly and helpful, room was very nice, although a little smaller than I expected. The shower could’ve been cleaner, but other than that it was a perfect trip!

First as international visitors, we could not get into the room until very late. Secondly, we were treated and talked to as if we were begging for a space.

The staff were very kind and helpful. I arrived early (hadn’t slept during my 9h flight so badly needed to rest) and while my room wasn’t ready for early check-in, they assigned me to another available room. Easily accessible via metro & bus to most attractions / via walk, nice neighborhood, good breakfast. Simple tiny rooms. Recommend.
