Alba Opera

"Location is great, you can walk to a lot of interesting areas and you have a few metro stations near, you can also walk from Gare du Nord. The hotel has character, with cool decor and the staff was nice. The decor in our room was quirky and we liked it, it was also quite a decent size. As an old building, noise insulation wasn't the best, so if you're neighbours arrive late you may hear them, but not much the hotel can do here. The lift is tiny, as mentioned, if you have a big suitcase it may be an issue. We liked the area a lot, with a good bistro and boulangerie in the same street. Two easy suggestions for improvement: a shower basket/soap holder and an extra pair of pillows, I think those are easy to offer and would improve comfort. I would visit again."

"A quintessential Paris hotel. Cutest elevator that fits two people if you are lucky, so charming! Rooms were beautiful and a great size for Paris. We stayed in room 54, and had a lovely view of the street. Bed was a little firm for my preference, but still comfy enough. Rooms were quiet, and we paid a little extra to secure a balcony - well worth it! The location is amazing. Less touristy than other areas, so nice to see Parisian's do their thing. Only downside for us was that there was no fridge in the room. While they were happy to put out stuff in their fridge - it just meant the convenience wasn’t there. Everyone who worked there was lovely, but a special mention to Elena! Elena was always smiling, so lovely and always keen to suggest places for us to go and see."

"This is a really lovely hotel, I stayed in room 34 which is a superior double, the room was large and had a zip link bed which would be too hard for some, it also had a smaller second bedroom with a single bed. The bathroom was lovely, the only downsides were the shower head is handheld so a little awkward to wash your hair in the bath. Staff were lovely, everywhere was very clean, it was quiet at night and in a good location for two metro steps and a short walk from La Cigale and the Moulin Rouge."
