Montsouris Orléans Hotel

Its good to have somewhere that's safe, clean, comfortable and in close proximity to central Paris. Very economical and worth it. I would definitely recommend and would book again on our next trip.

Positive aspects: Small but clean room. Shower was strong and warm. Location close to the metro station. Negative aspects: Wifi signal is very weak. Practically the same as no Wifi. When I checked out, the registration system at the front desk was down or something and the hotel couldn't issue the invoice. The front desk asked me to send an email to request the invoice later. I did send emails multiple times, but my emails were all neglected...

When in Paris, one (and indeed I was a solo traveler) is not looking to spend a lot of time in his hotel room. The Hotel Montsouris Orléans was a perfect place to rest my head at night. The room was tiny, but decently appointed (except for a stain on the bedspread cover I would have expected them to have washed out). The front desk was serviceable, if uninterested. When I needed to deal with them, they were perfectly nice, in French and English. My only real complaint is that I didn't received housekeeping services the day before my final night's stay. Potential clients should also be aware that the staircase to the upper floors is VERY steep and narrow, and there is no elevator. As young and able-bodied as I am, I had difficulty navigating upstairs with my suitcase. Also, the wifi is extraordinarily weak on the third ("second") floor, and I must imagine non-existent on the fourth. The alley behind the hotel got a little noisy and smoky at night. Since there is no air conditioning, keep this in mind if you plan on staying during the summer. It's a 5-minute walk to the Porte-Orléans metro, and about a 12-minute walk to the RER-B train to de Gaulle.

Very nice and friendly

Overall I had a good one night stay, the room was nicely decorated and clean, the queen size bed was comfortable, the bathroom is a bit small though. Two remarks: there is no A/C nor elevator. The staff is very friendly, they allowed me to keep my bag after checking out so that I could enjoy Paris on my last day without carrying it.

A receptionisr during the night was rude and when fo asked for the breakfast, he told me that was not included and i have to pay extras and dosn't care if hotel.com has included it !
