Hôtel Résidence de Bruxelles

A fairly basic hotel, but comfortable and spacious rooms. Convenient for the Gare du Nord and Metro. Close to the ALDI supermarket and many take-always.

Basic hotel. Convenient for the Gare du Nord and Metro. Close to ALDI supermarket and take-aways. Downmarket area. Not recommended to travel after dark!.

Lift wasn’t working and wasn’t fixed the second day when they said it would be, stairs were narrow and difficult to navigate with luggage, room was small, surrounding area wasn’t the greatest. Walking distance to Gare Du Nord which is a plus.

Rather unpleasant disabled access room For some reason we were in the wheelchair accessible room and it was more like a prison cell. To quote Gerrard Hoffnung "Bedroom with bath we have not, bathroom with bed we have!" The wet room was barely separated from the sleeping area . The whole lot was barren and tiled and stank of bleach - so at least bed bugs weren't a concern. Only staying one night but it wasn't enjoyable. Staff were perfectly nice though.

This hotel isn't in the fanciest end of Paris and it's not a luxury experience, but for the very reasonable price, it's a great place to stay. The staff were friendly and did all they could to help. The room was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. The bathroom facilities were perfect (the shower was fantastic!). Only a two minute walk from the nearest metro station, this is an affordable alternative to staying somewhere more central. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Paris on a budget.

I wanted a hotel: - Close to Gare du Nord - to a low price - where you had your own bathroom and - where it was possible to get a breakfast. This was exactly what we got at this hotel - but nothing more. Just as many people have said: it is a rough area, but just two blocks away it is much nicer with a lot of shops and restaurants. It is really close to Gare du Nord (5 minutes) and about 15 minutes walk to Sacre Coeur. Me and my three children (aged 14, 19 and 22) had two rooms. They were small and not fancy at all. The lift was a bit scary, so I had to carry my suitcase up the stairs. The beds were confy and everything was clean, but one of the rooms was facing the street so it was a bit noisy. The check-in was nice and swift. Finally the breakfast: it was almost nothing. A croissant, tea och coffee and a toast. Maybe a yougurt, too. Don't remember. But it was nice to get something before we ran to the train.
