Very good choice. The staff could not have been any friendlier. Rooms very nice - always clean. WiFi. Just steps from Bastille Metro station. Walk just 2 blocks and you are in the heart of Marais, which is a cool area with unique stores and good restaurants. Some guy gave this place a bad review because it was loud and... More

I stayed in the Hotel Original for one night in May 2013. I was in Room 203 which I believe is called an executive room. It was a lovely room although very small but most Paris hotels are like that. The bed was enormous and very very comfortable, which was great for us but it was weird having the bathroom... More

Very central in Paris, only 50meters to the Metro. Chic boutique hotel. Every room decorated differently and to a very high standard. Some rooms have bathing facilities within the room so if going with friends maybe best to contact the hotel beforehand and ask for separate facilities. Though the rooms can be classed as small by other country and City... More

Such a shame really. The Hotel Original is comfortable, trendy, fair value and staffed by very friendly staff. But it sits on a very loud and busy Main Street, with endless traffic which woke us repeatedly each night. There is even a Harley Davidson shop 200m up the street, which attracts a stream of pilgrims on their (loud) bikes. Place... More

As a veteran traveler in over 40 countries in 5 continents during the last forty years, I've become a crude reviewer of the cardboard-type selection available to 21st century pilgrims. When I find a jewel, I take a deep breath to remembrance the foregone days of luxury air and cruise travel. Honoring its name, Hotel Original in Paris is redundant... More

My friend and I just returned from 2 nights at the Hotel Original. The location near the Bastille, and steps from great dining and shopping in the Marais, is terrific. The staff could not have been more welcoming and helpful. We ordered coffee each morning, and it arrived at the exact time we asked for it--and it was delivered with... More

Just returned from a two-night stay at this hotel. Have stayed in many hotels in Paris at this style and price point, and this was certainly one of the nicer ones. Rooms are characteristically small, but certainly not the smallest we've stayed in. Location is ultra convenient. Just 15 mins on same metro line from Gare du Nord, for example.... More

My family of four and I all loved the hotel. The children (8 & 12) both loved the uniqueness of the hotel. We stayed in the Alice and wonderland rooms for four. The staff was very courteous and polite to everyone. I did think the price of the breakfast was a bit steep (12 euros) but as I didn't eat... More

A beautifully designed hotel in the heart of Paris. Well located next to Bastille it was a comforting place to come back to after a day of sight seeing. Our room was located on the fifth floor coloured in gold. The room had a spacious balcony with an amazing view that compensated for the lack of inside space. The quirky... More
