Hotel Ascot Opera

Booked the single room for my birthday week. I knew the room was small by the photos and they were accurate. The single bed is just 18” away from the glass bathroom door. I am a petite woman, and I could lay in bed and put my foot on the toilet- just to show how tight the space is. The room was newly decorated, with clean, crisp sheets and towels. The only negative to the small room was lack of storage space. There is a small wardrobe to hang clothes, but no drawers. Also no place to put your cosmetics or toiletries in the bathroom. There is a tall shelf over the toilet to put things, but I feared them falling in the toilet. It desperately needs a shelf under the mirror, next to the bed and over the desk. And no place to put your soap, shampoo in the shower, other than the floor. The front desk staff was very friendly and accommodating. They helped to make me dinner and concert reservations. The hotel lobby could use a bit of sprucing up- just get rid of the old, broken Knick-knacks, but keep the cute Eiffel tower collection. The hotel location is great. It is in a residential area, between 2 big metro stations, with restaurants, and bistros all around. A Monoprix is close by, and blocks from the louvre. Overall for the price, a great value. Just need to add a few shelves to make it better.

Good stay & location

The hotel is a typical small Paris hotel, small room, small bathroom, little room to move freely around but clean, tidy with in-room safe. The breakfast is adequate with a choice of two breakfast packages, coffee and one croissant for 5 Euros or a limited buffet breakfast for 15 Euros. There is a small lounge area with a PC to access internet, a printer and scanner. The greatest asset of the hotel is its staff, they are extremely helpful and friendly. A big thank you to Charles at the reception desk who was relaxed, friendly and helpful to all guests. We stayed in peak season and found the rate high but we left very satisfied with the property. We would have no hesitation to return to the Hotel Ascot Opera when next we visit Paris.

Friendly and helpful reception staff. Brilliant location for the main attractions and a quiet street. The hotel decor is a little dated. The walls are thin meaning we were disturbed by a crying baby and noisy family next door to us.

Great spot. Close walk to a lot of places. Rooms are tiny but nice. Walked to eat and to the Louvre.
