LE CITIZEN HOTEL ^{* * *}

A big shout-out to Manager Gizam and Yasin who have been wonderful as they took care of us during our 8-day stay at Le Citizen Hotel. They are some of the nicest people we know and super helpful too. My husband needed to see a doctor and Gizam managed to get us a doctor who came within an hour. We stayed at the Suite and the king sized bed is lovely and comfortable. The room is neat, clean. There is a lot of sunlight in the room (unlike many stuffy rooms in Paris which are old) so it feels fresh and spacious even though it is not a big room (but by Paris standards, 35m sq is acceptable to us at that price). The view of the canal is lovely. I have only one issue - it is noisy on the weekends so i needed to keep the windows shut as i am a light sleeper. I used ear plugs so most of the noise was kept out. But because there is no AC during autumn and winter, i would need to keep the farthest window from our bed open to let in cool air otherwise it is a tad too warm for me. So to fix this issue for me, I made sure that all the windows were open for cool air and ventilation when we were out and about in the day so that when we were about to sleep at night, the room is nice and cool. One night, the weather was a tad warm (yes unusual for October!) so i had no choice but to keep the furthest window open to let in cool air. So my only complaint was that I wished there was a choice for air conditioning in the rooms in case the room is warm. But other than that, the hotel in general was great for us as we were surrounded by some really lovely restaurants and cafes. There are so many to choose from! Oh and the Amorino ice cream shop is just opposite and it closes at midnight so you can imagine the amount of ice cream we had. A romantic area to stay at for couples because the canal is romantic at night as it allows for some lovely strolls along the canal. Thank you once again Gizam and Yasin! Love, from Singapore.

Schoon, en comfortabel hotel. De kamer was echt heel groot met alles erop en eraan. Aan het kanaal st Martin, dus fijn uitzicht en een leuke buurt. Zou hier graag terugkomen. Oh ja, ontzettend vriendelijk personeel.
