Hôtel Edgar Quinet

Pleasant
Traveller Type: with friends
  : Good location, very close to train station
  : Could have been bigger, extremely tiny room for 3 people. Cleanliness could be improved

Poor
Traveller Type: group
  : The staff was friendly for the most part. Also the location of the hotel is very convenient.
  : We got confirmation we could check in at 12:00 when we arrived at 13:00 the receptionist ask us to wait until 3 pm, they should not promise something they can not do. Asl that person did not want us to pay with card but instead with cash not convenient for us. Later when we came the other receptionist used the card with out saying anything which makes us think the first person just did not want to do it. I was trapped on the bathroom 20 minutes because the bathroom door was damaged. The bathroom was very tiny and the sink over it. The bed just with one pillow and not towels for 2 person but just for one even though the booking was for 2 on each rooms.

  : It has a very good location. It is easy to find the hotel. It is close to two subway stations, in fact you can choose the one that suits you better. It is surrounded by small restaurants and the Monoprix which is at to steps distance is GENIAL!
  : I missed the shower gel :( but I survived :). It is difficult without elevator but it was compensated by the personal willingness to help me with my suitcase. I do not have any other complaints.

  : I can't say that it was the best hotel I have ever stayed. But it's pretty good for Paris and for such price. There two metro lines near Hotel a lot of bakeries and a big mall. The stuff is friendly and always ready to help. The room was not very clean and had the smell of something old. But enough big with two beds and small bathroom. It's excellent for two persons. I lived on the last floor and the look from the window was amazing.

  : Very bad experience with the hotel. Room facilities are very poor. Not clean. Not comfortable. Room service is very bad. Actually nothing is there u can only go and come. If you are looking for comfortable this is not the suitable place to stay.

  : The hotel is at 3 min walk from Gare Montparnasse. I woke up 20 min before the departure of my train and it was fine. The room is not big, but is properly equipped (bathroom, TV, safe,...). The person at the reception was helpful.
  : The sink is quite small that it is hard to use it without spilling some water outside.

  : Located with walking distance to Eiffel Tower (35min) and Luxembourg Gardens (20min) & Pantheon (30min)Nice, tidy and tight room with patio - fair enough to fall asleep after whole day walking and sightseeing
  : Fluffy people (which means 60% of Brits) will have a little problem with having shower and turning around as cabin is just tiny

  : Room 306Overall very small, WC seat overlaps with the door & basin. Door must remain open when you are seated on the WC pan.Hot water available at the showerhead. Complimentary soap bar and 2 shampoo sacks provided.Room is very, very small. Bed is single, comfortable bed mattress, a single, uncomfortable thin pillow provided.Room is warm through radiator heating. only ventilation is via the window which you can't open in winter months.Lack of communication happened between staff during my stay. I paid for 2 nights stay. However, I was refused entry to my room after one night when I returned to the hotel and all my stuff were removed from the room. Lady was told my room was booked for one night only. She doesn't speak English which made it hard for me to inform her that I booked for two nights and was made to wait 10 minutes before she confirmed my honesty!Gent at the reception was very straightforward about having to leave the key and not bring food back to the room, despite the fact that the hotel has no kitchen!Overall, 3/5. Good budget hotel if you are on a short visit or just using it to crash for the night. Its location is very good and close to lots of public transport and sights.
  : Staff need to be aware of residents' duration of stayEnglish is preferrable if they get lots of touristssmall roomlack of ventilationhaving to leave the key behind (makes you unwilling to leave critical stuff in the room)
