ibis Paris Bastille Opera

We liked that there is a driveway out front that we could pull into and offload our luggage at the reception desk and then go turn our rental car in at Gare de Lyon. We also liked the proximity to Notre Dame, which we had last scen in 2018 before it burned. We walked to it on the way back to the hotel after dropping off the rental car. We were only in Paris two nights, so that was a nearby bonus. We were in Paris to meet friends for lunch at a restaurant fairly far away, and what we did not like was the traffic, of course, but that's not your fsult.

Our room was clean and functional. It was definitely small - though we expected that for Paris. The twin beds were smaller than the average twin and we kept seperating them for a little personal space and every day they had been pushed back together. There wasn't quite space for 2 people to open up their luggage - but we made due. Bathroom door didn't have a lock - but it wasn't a deal breaker. A little more space would have gone a long way - but for the price, we were content.

The hotel has a great vibe with lots of plants and a sleek aesthetic. Breakfast was good with a continental buffet and some warm foods. The staff were friendly and welcoming and the cleanliness was great.

Design is nice, room was cozy and looks like the hotel was recently renovated. The blanket was warm and heavy. The cleaning was provided on daily basis. Very nice staff at the reception desk, very helpful.

Attention to waste: room cleaning on demand, paper cups in the room, biscuit jam cups at breakfast and a lot of green all around the groups floor to remember us about the importance of nature! Great location: a lot of night life around but the street itself is very quiet.
