Hotel Malar — Paris

The staff were very friendly and welcoming and the hotel is about a 7 minute walk from the nearest Metro stop. The room was quiet small, but really who will be staying in their room much of the time while in Paris. I will say one thing I didn't care much for was the location of our room. It was not attached to the original building, but behind it. There […] was an all concrete courtyard located between our room and the original hotel. It was quiet noisy when people were exiting their rooms and when walking up and down the stairs to get to the 2nd or 3rd floor since everything echoed. Also, while in your room you could also smell people smoking in the courtyard. The staff were really very nice, helpful, and friendly! That's why I bumped up my rating to a 3. Uzziniet vairāk

For a first time traveler to Paris I thought Hotel Malar was great. Paris hotels (we stayed in another hotel as well) definitely live up their reputations as far as being small and having to walk up stairs if you want to stay in the $125-$175 range, however, any reputation of rude service was certainly not present at Hotel Malar. The location was in […] a seemingly high income neighborhood, more businesses than some other areas, so quieter at night. It was a 5 minute walk to Rue Cler, about 15 minutes to the Eiffel Tower and 10 minutes to the nearest Metro stop. I would stay there again or suggest others to do so if being near the Eiffel tower is your priority. Uzziniet vairāk

My daughter and I stayed at this hotel while visiting a local university. It was a great location...maybe 10 minute walk to subway. Eiffel Tower also about 10 minute walk. The hotel is old and the rooms are small, but the staff was very friendly and helpful. The rooms were very clean and we encountered no problems. No one goes to Paris to stay in their […] hotel room, so the size was not really an inconvenience. Everyone we encountered on the staff spoke some varying levels of English as well. Overall it was a great experience and we would definitely use this hotel again. Uzziniet vairāk

Hotel Malar is in a very nice area of Paris (District 7). It is near the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre Museum, Invalides, Grand and Petit Palaces and the Seine River. It is close to the RER, and Metro Stations -- walking distance to about 4 stations. We took the RER from Charles De Gaulle Airport to Pont De L'alma and to the hotel with no problem. The Paris […] trains and Metro are wonderful. We took no taxi at all. The staff can speak in English and are very helpful and friendly. There are lots of restaurants, corner stones, drug store and a supermarket around the block. We stayed at the first floor and so we were not concerned about the fact that there was no elevator. The streets around are quiet and quite clean and we felt safe. We stayed at the hotel for 6 nights. Uzziniet vairāk

Place was fine. It is no 5 star hotel, but this would fit best for people with limited spending or students. It was in a great location, pretty much the middle of everything.

Its 10-15mins walk from nearest metro station, nice walk alongside the river. Surrounding area is safe and really in central that you could even walk to Grand Palace, and the tourist spots in the central. The room was alright. Room was not huge or brilliant but nice money saver hotel for the weekend. However, the hotel is small and its centered with […] the stairs which leads you to the other floors and rooms. The hotel doesn't have lift so every morning I experienced the noise of the carry bags dragging the stairs which make me up. Also due to the size of the hotel, you can hear the neighbor's talking voices and TV. I found it was distracting. Other things which I found disappointed was the mice traps.... Again, its cheap enough to stay in safe area, ok room but not sure if I want to stay with my friends or with my family.... Uzziniet vairāk

Hotel was a little run down, but very quiet since the rooms are off the main street. Great location, just a few minutes from the metro and close to everything downtown. However this hotel did have the largest bathroom of all the hotels I've stayed in in Paris, a huge plus.

This a very small hotel with NO elevators! We had to carry our luggage to the 4th floor through a narrow steep stairwell. Breakfast there is pretty pricey so you are better off going to a cafe nearby. Room was very small as well as bathroom but we had a cute view from our window, we could see the tip of the tower from our room. Very close to Eiffel […] Tower so it made it a bit romantic. Metro station is 10 minute walk from hotel. Paris is beautiful and if you are willing to walk and get lost in the streets of Paris you will see it all. There is a piece of history every mile N, S, E, W from each other. Would consider this hotel but the elevator factor takes it all away. Uzziniet vairāk

Would not stay there again. We are too old for the unsafe stairs. Nasty carpet. Not a good value for your money. Staff was nice and helpful. Charming area.

I like this hotel be ause it is a very untouristy environment. It is not for all tourists because there is no elevator, the two rooms I was in had showers to small for large or tall people. Wonderful, kind attendants in particular Cyril was very helpful a d friendly also Monsieur Fernando. I would suggest two things: 1) take out the carpet which looked […] quite bad due to age, stains etc and just have plain floor with a small rug by the bed and 2) plant flowers in the flower pots outside the windows. Neither of my rooms had flowers in them and I could see the ones across from me in the rooms across the court. It's a small thing but would add a lot to the setting. Geraniums are very sturdy and the cleaning service could just water once a week. Last suggestion, with a confirmed reservation just add: out metro #8 Tour Marbourg straight down for a block or two to La Dominique. Turn left past the grocery store and turn right at Rue Malar. It's half a. Lock down on the right. This should be helpful to all guests. I will recommend your hotel and hope to be a guest in the future. Room was clean and good linens. One room did have a small refrigerator the other did not. Perhaps this should be information given when reserving a room. Uzziniet vairāk

We had a 30-hour layover in Paris, and we decided that we wanted to stay close to the Eiffel Tower and other tourist attractions in order to maximize our sightseeing. The Hotel Malar is in a cute, quiet neighborhood tucked a few blocks away from the Eiffel Tower. We arrived early in the morning, and the hotel clerk gladly stored our suitcases until […] we could check in at 2:00pm that afternoon. The surrounding area has a few restaurants, cafes, and a small grocery store, and it is within easy walking distance to more trafficked streets with a wider variety of restaurants. Our room was small, but clean. The bathroom was larger than expected with a strong shower, not water, and clean linens. I'd recommend this hotel for travelers who have short stays and plan on spending most of their days wandering around Paris. I'd definitely stay here again! Uzziniet vairāk

Hotel location was not bad. It was walkable to most locations (20 minute walk). Be ware this hotel has NO elevator, steps only, guess I missed this when booking and ended up having to carry a 50 pound suitcase up two flights of spiral steps(we happen to be on the 2nd floor, but there are 4 floors). What a adventure that was, thank god I have a sense […] of humor but I imagine most people would not find it as amusing! Front desk staff was very nice and helpful, all spoke english. I had a double room,which was extremely small even for European standards. Shower was even smaller. Room was very outdated, but appeared clean. Loved that we could open the windows and over look the street to the neighborhood. Overall not awful, I mean how msch time do you spend in your room, but I would not stay there again. Also metro is a good walk away so if you have a suitcase you may want to splurge for a cab. Uzziniet vairāk

I know hotel rooms tend to be small in Paris, but this was ridiculous. The bed was up against the wall so that the person sleeping on that side had to climb out the end of the bed. It was impossible to sit at the desk not only because a chair was not provided, but a refrigerator was under it. We did use a plastic chair that was in the bathroom and sat […] sideways to use the laptop. We were 3 floors up narrow, wooden stairs, not that great when you have to carry luggage. The worst part was that the shower did not drain and water flooded everywhere, all the way into the room. The clerk was very sorry for the inconvenience of a wet floor, but since the hotel was full we couldn't move to another room. She did mop up the bathroom, but not much could be done about the wet carpet. I would not stay here again even though the location was great. Uzziniet vairāk

The hotel is in a perfect location for a city break in Paris! We read all the reviews before choosing this hotel and decided location was key for us over the star rating. The hotel is only 5 minutes walk from the Eiffel Towel and 10 minutes from Champs-Elysee. The rooms are small and basic but meet all your needs with clean towels and sheets daily. […] However there is no lift so can be a bit of trek up the winding stairs at the end of the day! The good thing was that we were able to come and go as we pleased as there was someone on reception 24 hours a day. Overall, a good inexpensive hotel in a perfect location! Uzziniet vairāk

My friend and I stayed here for two nights at the end of our stay. There was a problem with the plumbing when we arrived so we had no water that afternoon and night, which was extremely unpleasant but not anyone's fault. We were given as many water bottles as we needed and the problem was fixed by the next morning. My only qualms about this hotel were […] that there was no air conditioning in the rooms and no elevator. Other than that the Eiffel tower is very close and the hotel is not too far of a distance from many of the major sites, if you don't mind lots of walking. Not immediately close to a metro station, but the surrounding area is lovely to walk around in!! There's a bakery nearby on St Dominique called Le Moulin de la vierge that has DELICIOUS croissants, get them warm in the morning!! The room is nothing fancy, no safe or fridge but was very clean and the double bed was nice and big. Uzziniet vairāk

My teenaged daughter and I stayed at the Hotel Malar during our third trip to Paris so we knew what to expect in European hotels. We were very pleased with the size and cleanliness of the room, but mostly with the fact that this was the quietest room we've ever had in Paris! Our room was on the courtyard side for which the stairs are outside, but this […] was not a problem for us. It was a little cold during our trip and we could not figure out how to get the heat on, but there were plenty of blankets in the room. There was also a heated towel rack in the bathroom so it was always plenty warm in there. The front desk staff was always friendly and helpful and the room was always cleaned very thoroughly. We enjoy walking in Paris so found the location to be perfect. Just a few blocks from the Eiffel Tower or the Esplanade des Invalides. We even walked many times to the Champs Elysess. If you do not enjoy walking you may not enjoy the fact that there is not really a convenient metro station. The closest three stations are at least three blocks away. There are many restaurants, cafes and markets very close by and a Starbucks just around the corner. The only negative I have is that since there is no smoking in the rooms, the courtyard becomes the designated smoking area which was not ideal. But overall, we had a great stay and will probably stay at the Hotel Malar again on our annual trip to Paris in 2013! Uzziniet vairāk

Travelling on a small budget usually means having to stay in some pretty dank places, but this hotel was a pleasant exception. Having looked for cheap affordable accomodation in Paris I quickly discovered how expensive the city is if you wish to stay very central, so when I saw this hotel I thought it was a bargain considering it's close proximity to […] the Eiffel Tower. It's certainly a no thrills hotel, but then all I was going to be doing was sleeping at night as my days were spent out in the city (who really wants to spend money to go on holiday and then spend it all in a hotel, it seems a bit of a pointless waste of money to me). People have complained about the size of the room, and yes, it was small, but I didn't expect anything different after reading other people's comments. And yes, the bathroom was tiny, and the shower was not for the hefty sized person, but that's the point of reading reviews, and it amazes me how people still come and complain about these things when a quick bit of prior research would let them know all the info they needed. I stayed in this hotel expecting a small room, and a small shower, and it's what I got. There were no nasty surprises. It was clean enough, the bed was comfortable, and I didn't really hear any outside noise. Yes, you could hear people coming up the stairs, but it didn't bother me as I was awake and getting ready for my day at that point anyway. I really have no complaints. Would I stay here again? Possibly not, but that's only because I could find a cheaper, or same priced hotel in one of the surrounding Paris subburbs. I didn't book one for this trop because I was unaware of how good the Paris Metro system was, but having seen how fantastic the transport is (London could learn a thing or two) I would happily stay in a more residential district and have a little more comfort. But I would definitely recommend this hotel to others who are looking for stay extremely central in Paris. Uzziniet vairāk
