    The staff were incredibly helpful and the beds were comfortable. The bar/dining area was well-decorated and the cleaning staff were thorough. The rooms were spacious and had great air conditioning, plus there were shared amenities nearby. The location offers easy access to key landmarks in Paris. We enjoyed the rooftop bar and karaoke room, adding to our family bonding experience. Nearby landmarks like Montmartre and Notre-Dame enhanced our stay. The prices for some items were high, but overall, a great experience.

    Our family had a fantastic time at Le Club with its trendy, lively atmosphere offering an array of delicious cocktails and energetic dance beats. The vibrant setting really elevated our evening, creating an unforgettable experience for both us parents and our kids.

    My kids wished for a dedicated play area or activities for children, providing a more family-friendly environment.

    I must say, the hotel has some exquisite decor and cozy social spaces. I especially enjoyed the vintage touch and the vibrant colors, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere for everyone, including senior folks like myself.

    Staying at this hotel was an amazing experience. the exclusive amenities provided in the rooms, including the private facilities, Jacuzzi, and leisure/TV room, made our stay extra luxurious. the service provided by the staff was outstanding and they provided us with packed lunches and special diet menus, catering to our every need. the location advantage of being close to the metro made it easy for us to get around the city.

    this did not affect our overall experience of the hotel.

    We partied at Le Club and danced the night away - the vibes were off the charts! The location was perfect for our party-filled nights out and the metro being just across the street made getting around a breeze.

    We'd love a bit more variety in the onsite entertainment options, maybe some live music or themed nights to keep the party going even stronger!

    We had a great stay at Generator! The spacious room provided more than enough space for all of us, and the modern furnishings made it feel really comfortable. The beds were cozy, and having individual lights for each bed was a nice touch. The hostel was also very quiet, allowing us to have a peaceful night's sleep. Plus, the location was perfect, just a 2-minute walk from the metro station.

    The rooms are so cozy and modern, and I loved having my own private bathroom. The personal light and charging station by the bunk bed were super convenient for someone like me who likes to read in bed.

    The bunk bed was a bit creaky, but it didn't bother me too much.

    The hostel experience at Generator was amazing! the central location was perfect, with easy access to metro stations. the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making me feel welcomed throughout my stay. the facilities were clean and well-maintained, and I especially enjoyed the basement nightclub on Friday night. Hiring a bicycle was a breeze and added a lot of fun to my trip. the dorms were spacious, and the buffet breakfast offered good value for money. I would definitely recommend Generator for a youthful and enjoyable stay.

    Don't have any issues at all! 👍

    The hostel's location near metro and railway stations made it easy to explore the city, and the breakfast was delicious with friendly staff. However, the worn-out curtains and broken shower door in the room were noticeable downsides that could use some attention. it would be beneficial to have transparency regarding locker sizes and charges for luggage storage.

    The late check-out service was a real bonus, and I appreciated the modern and well-maintained rooms. the shower rooms were clean and had a handy changing area. the location was perfect, just a short walk from the metro station, making it easy to explore all the key attractions in the city. Plus, the hostel had a bar/club with great music, adding to the fun atmosphere.

    The lack of a kitchen and common space was a disappointment, especially for someone like me who enjoys a chill atmosphere and socializing with other guests. Additionally, the neighborhood could be a bit dangerous at night, which made me feel a little uneasy.

    the dorm rooms were clean and comfortable, and the hostel is super close to the metro station. the reception staff were helpful and gave great info on things to do. trash was picked up daily, and there's a separate toilet and shower room - which is great when sharing a room.

    Would recommend.

    Canal St Martin surroundings are pure French chic with a cool twist. The rooftop bar offers stunning sunset views, while Café Fabien serves up the best local fare. Conveniently located close to the train station, this spot is ideal for socializing. The modern rooms are well-equipped, and the Metro-themed bar is a vibe. Oh! And I could even walk to vintage shops nearby. Loved my stay in this historically rich city! ¡Viva España!

    The location was perfect, right next to a metro station for easy transportation. the spacious rooms were a pleasant surprise, and the fast and reliable internet was a great advantage for getting work done.

    The check-in process was a hassle with long lines and a slow elevator. There were also issues with bed assignments, which led to uncomfortable encounters with other guests.

    We had a great stay at Generator! the staff were friendly and helpful, and the location was perfect for exploring Paris. the rooms were clean and modern, with comfortable bunk beds and private bathrooms. There was also a shared bathroom on each floor. the hotel is conveniently located near a metro station and has four elevators, so there was never any waiting. We loved the spacious breakfast area and enjoyed the excellent food in the restaurant.

    Nothing, it's perfect! 😊

The rooms and bathrooms were clean and tidy, and the staff was friendly and helpful. I loved the modern vibe and the amenities like big lockers, extra showers, and good air conditioning.

    My recent stay at this hotel was surprisingly pleasant. the staff was really accommodating when we had a minor issue with the room heating, and they quickly resolved it for us. the location was great, with the metro and rail stations close by, making it easy to explore Paris. I also appreciated the supermarkets nearby, although external food wasn't allowed in the hotel. the value for the price was excellent, especially in comparison to other options in Paris.

    One area that could be improved is the breakfast selection. While the breakfast looked nice, I found it a bit limited for the price charged.

    The location near the St Martin canal and metro was perfect for exploring the city, and the staff was super friendly and helpful, creating a chill vibe at the hostel. The spacious dorm and comfy bedding made my short stay worth it, and the hot showers were a nice touch for the winter chill. The only hiccup was the toilet paper dispenser issue and the unresponsive heater, but overall, it didn't dampen the cool experience 👌.

    The hotel was conveniently located near the metro stations, making it easy to explore the city. The room was comfortable with big windows that let in lots of natural light. The bathroom was clean and well-maintained. The staff was friendly and helpful, ensuring a pleasant stay.

    The breakfast area could be chaotic and messy, with spills and unclean tables.

    We had a great stay with fantastic staff, clean rooms and a delicious breakfast. The hotel is very close to the Metro station, which made it easy to get around this city. Additionally, transportation to the airport was a breeze since the hotel is only 35-40 minutes away by metro.

    Couldn’t fault.

    The rooms are mind-blowingly spacious, with up to 8 beds, 2 showers, and a toilet. The hotel has 8 floors, making it super huge. The bar on the ground floor and top floor is jaw-droppingly convenient. The staff are amazingly nice and create a cosy atmosphere. The location is unreal, close to metro and train stations, and the metro line 6 makes it crazy easy to explore Paris. Plus, it's a budget-friendly option for solo travelers, with a lively communal area and a safe and comfortable stay. The female dorm is beautifully light and spacious.

    Le Rooftop: One evening, I found myself admiring the sunset over Montmartre and the Sacré-Cœur from the spectacular bar on the rooftop. Sipping a cocktail, I felt like I was living in a scene from a classic French movie, with the breathtaking view adding a touch of enchantment to my Parisian experience.

    Located in a hip area, just a couple of minutes walk from the metro station and easily accessible to most tourist attractions by foot. The rooms are spacious, clean, and comfortable. The bar/club is vibrant and open until 2 am, a great place to meet up with people and make friends.

    Some facilities may be unreliable at times, such as the laundry machine, which may cause inconvenience to some guests.

    The hostel has a quirky design with cool communal areas. The staff were really helpful and friendly.

    The noise levels at night were absolutely exquisite. I truly felt like I was sleeping in a train station.
