Hotels near Kawaii Café in Paris

First things first, there effectively is no Lennon Hotel. There is no reception there and no breakfast room. Everything from the administration on is done through the Avalon Hotel next door so, make the assumption that you are going to the Avalon and you will not get lost or confused. The decor is both dated and modern at the same time. I would say, typically French so I am glad they didn't go all chain hotel and boring. The Bedroom - The choice of furniture I would question. In some pictures you can see what looks like a coat rack. This is the 'wardrobe' in the room. There are 6 hooks which may or may not have 6 hangers. Beneath that could well be a full size laptop safe (free to use) and under that, what I would have used as the shoe shelf. There really isn't anywhere for smaller items at all, they likely will stay in your luggage. With the lighting it's either bright or very bright so, there wasn't really an option to have it dimly lit though there are a selection of ceiling light, wall lamps and table lamps, they are all bright. Our room (100) was not a king size bed, I feel 4' 6” as it was certainly smaller than we are used to. In many pictures it shows the white bed pillows supplemented by small blue (green) ones. This is certainly not the case with every room. The Bathroom - I can but speak for our room as I understand other rooms have different configurations. We had a walk in shower with a rain shower head and a hand held spray adjusted using ornate handles. The toilet was on the wall. I personally don't like those, I feel incredibly unsafe especially when they creak like this one did when sat on. To make it worse, we're only 5' 3” and it's just too high, we felt like 5 year olds in need of a step stall. I wondered if this might not be aimed at wheelchair users as I am disabled but I do not use a chair but a mobility scooter (which there was plenty of room for). Then I consider the sink which is high up, too high for a wheelchair user. Of course, there is no chair in the shower either so, if it is meant to be an accessible room, it kind of isn't. The walls are done in tiles. Very mismatched tiles, not sure whether that was intentional or just years of different repairs and replacements. I feel that the light blue small square tiles were original but that when the shower, toilet and sink were last done they were not replicable so got replaced with blue rectangle tiles. The floor tiles are probably original but very worn and though they may have been, I never felt they were clean. Being a walk in shower the water got everywhere and the floor remained wet all night so we kept a towel on the floor by the door. Us British might find it weird to see a hairdryer in the bathroom right next to the sink, I think a plug socket too! The large round mirror was supposed to light up with a touch switch but, we never got it to work. The water pressure was though very good and combined shower gel/shampoo is provided as are ample towels which are s

I was robbed here and the employees facilitated it. One of the worst hotel experiences I’ve ever had. I was with a large tour group, and three hours before we were supposed to leave after a ten day long stay, a strange man forced entry (forced? was let in?) to 15 or so of my group’s rooms that we know of, possibly more, if not all. I was robbed. My laptop and iPad were stolen and so were my roommate’s headphones and portable charger, as well as a little bit of cash left on the desk. My suitcase had been rifled through and my belongings strewn about. The hotel desk worker actively made it as difficult as possible to report it. He would not call 112 for me, or translate for me since I do not speak French. He blamed our own tour group, he blamed me for not locking it even though I did, he said their locks could not be broken. Once I finally got ahold of the police, he still would not translate for me and actually lied to them about what happened, according to one of my friends who spoke some French. He would not let us see security footage of the man who broke into the rooms and told us that the manager “would review it in the morning”, conveniently after we would have already left the country. He watched over my shoulder as I was tracking my devices and made phone calls in a language that was not French any time he snuck an update from my phone. They still have not called me with any information, and I don’t believe they will. How else would a stranger have access to so many rooms of just our tour group right before we were supposed to leave if they had not been let in? I had locked my door and had the one and only key they gave my roommate and I with me when it happened. They even barged into rooms people were present inside of, and the employee did absolutely nothing about it. The manager never showed up. Before being robbed, I did not particularly like the hotel in the first place. The rooms themselves were tiny and our bathroom toilet seat had cigarette burn holes in them. All in all a very bad experience with terrible staff who organized for our rooms to be broken into and burgled. Disgusting. I know theft is commonplace in Europe but for it to be so blatantly obviously facilitated by the hotel was infuriating and I could do nothing as I watched them drive away with my devices. Do not stay here. They will arrange for your stuff to be stolen and try to blame it on you.

The hotel is in a really nice position very close to the metro station of Jaurès that can get you basically everywhere. The place was clean and there is the chance to leave there your luggage if you come to early for check in or if you need to leave it after check out. That earns the 2 stars in my review. Unfortunately this was probably my worst experience in a hotel. Checking in I was told that we got an upgrade and, instead of our view on the city we got what is supposedly a better room facing an internal wall. I must say that I am not sure if that was really an upgrade because it didn't feel like it - and this makes me wonder what would have been a regular room. Rooms are poorly insulated and I could hear perfectly what was going on in the rooms next to our. The cleaning was good, but unfortunately the cleaning lady forgot to close our door and, when we came back to the hotel in the late afternoon, we found the door open. The only answer we got when we reported the issue was ”oh, that's not good” - indeed it isn't. Growing up in a similar business I have been taught to do what it take to make happy your guests and I found odd that I couldn't get a couple of spoons when I asked for them (”breakfast is closed now so we don't have spoons”). All in all, I wouldn't recommend this hotel. The price doesn't match the service.

Great value hotel, room was basic but clean and beds were comfortable, room suited me and my son ideally. Booking was easy, check in was smooth and staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful. Surrounding area was a bit rough around flea Market but we didn't have any hassle

Second stay at this hotel and it never disappoints. Nice and close to metro, restaurants and a short walk to Eiffel Tower. Staff always friendly and willing to help if need be . Very clean hotel.

We stayed here for the location - with an early morning train, the 5-minute walk to Gare du Nord made it the perfect spot. Our room was comfortable and spacious with a great bathroom. It is right on a busy street it was loud and did not feel as private as other locations. The receptionist was fantastic - offering to chill a bottle of wine in the hotel's fridge and providing an awesome restaurant recommendation for our last night in Paris that was by-far our best meal.

I really liked it, the hotel is located in the old building, our room was on the last (7) floor with a balcony. The spiral staircase goes upstairs and there is an elevator (did not work for 2 days). Very good breakfast - hot dishes - omelet, bacon, sausages, different pastries, muesli, flakes, fruits, vegetables, cheese, yogurt, coffee tea, cocoa., pleasant service and cleaning every day. Very quiet. The metro stop is very close, bakeries and shops, cafés, pharmacies - all nearby.

This comfortable and beautiful hostel is so near the Bercy Bus and Train station. You can go the city center and all tourists places via metro, buses in a very short time. There are several good restaurants and cafes near the hostel to eat or have a drink. The room stayed was so clean and comfortable. It also had a balcony. The staff are so kind, understanding,smiled-face and helpful people. I thank them all. If you want to visit Paris for a couple of days as a solo traveller like me, this beautiful, peaceful and safe hostel is a great place for you. I strongly recommend it.

This hotel was great. The staff were super helpful and friendly. I asked lots of questions and they were more than happy to help. I felt welcomed and safe. I would definitely recommend this hotel and I will definitely use them again. Value for money and clean rooms. Very high standard and brilliant staff thank you.

what kind of hotel has ear plugs next to their beds??? we arrived late at night to the hotel we checked in and went to our room, the room was tiny, there is no room for 2 people and the luggage. the noise the subway makes is very loud and makes it impossible to sleep there to that you have to add the noise the elevator makes every time it moves. we had such a terrible first night we decided to leave the hotel. we asked booking.com to get us a refund for the remaining 5 nights we were going to stay. booking.com was unable to refund us and the hotel has only one person working at the front desk and this person isn't informed on how to their job and doesn't speak 1 word of english. they were unable to help us. we emailed a manager of the hotel and they told us they were not going to refund even though we left our hotel. so we lost about $1750 at this terrible noisy with mediocre staff and tiny rooms. I have stayed in at least 16 different hotels in Paris and have never had this experience. i am still waiting for an acceptable answer from booking.com or the hotel.
