“Not all bad”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 December 2011

Panicked after booking this hotel when looked at trip advisor..but it was not as bad as expected. The location was good, slept well as room was warm and quiet,breakfast fine, staff very helpful and pleasant. The room was very dated and the areas of hotel apart from ground floor reception were tatty. But for what I paid for this hotel I was happy with it, because it gave me more money to spend on other things... and we had the most wonderful weekend in Paris!

Stayed December 2011, travelled with family

“Almost decent”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 December 2011

person found this review helpful

Stayed 1 night for a meeting. Did not pay for the room myself. Based on reviews here my expectations were low.

Reception staff was nice. Rooms were in need of refurbishing, beds were hard and the pillows just wrapped in the sheet without a pillowcase, making it a bit difficult to get comfortable. The bathroom was recently refurbished and seemed clean, however there were no toiletteries.

Breakfast did not have many options, but nice enouh croissants and coffee.

Would not pay much money for this hotel, but it is an ok option if what you're just looking for is somewhere to sleep and that you don't expect anything more than what is described in reviews here. I would bring a pillowcase if I have to stay here again.

“Rip Off”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 November 2011

I booked this hotel through Booking.com based on Internet and smoking room availability When I checked in, they told me the hotel did not have smoking rooms. Once in the room, I tried to log in the Internet but it wasn't working. After multiple tries and them resetting their router, I had very spotty connectivity. I went down and cancelled the rest of my stay. The very rude manager insisted on billing my card for one additional night (charging me 2 nights for the single night I spent there).
The lobby of the hotel looks very nice but the rooms don't look as good. No closet to hang your clothes, really tiny bathroom.
I have been going to Paris every year for over 15 years and this is the worst hotel experience I ever had in this city!

“BAD!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 October 2011

Havrotel is a horrible hotel I`ve ever see! First of all,,Location is not that goos as most think,,its near opera,,,yes,,but,,first thing what is near is a big train station,,Gare Sen-Lazar,,noisy street that impossible to sleep even with the closed windows... Many homless ppl arround that can suddenly scream,,yell,,or even pee on the building walls outside... terrible smell of ununderstandable food that will touch ur nose every time u will go outside. Rooms are not fresh,,and cleaning may be once in a week,,, bedding never changed while we were stay there (7 days),only towels,,
Breakfast is poooreeeest! and a buffet has a kitchen in it and visitors are see how the staff is cleaning plates,cups,,, only one person working durng the breakfast time,,and its always mess there,durty tables,not ready cups and so on,,,
Reception is nice but coz hotel is bad and price is high,,all seems terible...
Receptionist is also works as a barmen,,coffemaker,,and I dont know what else that we cant even imagine.
Elevator is an old one,,and sometimes its stay during the stages,,so be carefull,,and if its happen just jump inside,,and it ll move...
I dont recomend anybd to stay there...it`s a Paris,,and if ure in paris so u deserve more!!!u deserve better stay...!!!

“I found this hotel to be overpriced for the service/rooms they provide”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 June 2011

I found this hotel to be overpriced for the service/rooms they provide.
Location was OK – close to the Metro, Gare St Lazare and Roissy bus (very convenient to get to the CDG airport).
Staff was polite and helpful.
We had a room that was facing the court and building across, it was small but clean and quiet.
The absents of the pillow cases puzzled me – I’ve never seen this in other hotels.
Also there was no convenient way to take a shower: there is no hook to hold the shower head and no shower curtains (so you basically have to hold shower with one of your hands).

As for breakfast – when we booked the hotel thru travel agency they already included the breakfast and charged us for it. However I’ve overheard some couple who was checking out and obviously they were unaware that breakfast is extra. Is it some strange way to make extra money to mention that breakfast is not included only on the check out?
