 Keep in mind that the hotel is adjacent to a large railway station at the heart of Paris and the streets may be active sirens loud vehicles and people even in the small hours of the night Do not forget to bring earplugs 
 The location is excellent for access to the Gare du Nord for the Metro and Eurostar The staff were all very nice and I especially appreciate their being so understanding when my tour changed its schedule unexpectedly and I had to change the dates I was planning to stay here My room was quite comfortable Bless you for having a kettle in the room after staying at two other French hotels that didn t have this amenity I was delighted to be able to make a cup of tea again
