Hôtel familial propre et accueil chaleureux

Located near the bustling Place Denfert-Rochereau in Paris, the Hôtel du Lion served as a convenient base during our week-long stay.

The first thing we noticed upon our arrival was the long staircase you need to walk up to reach the hotel’s front desk on the first floor. This could pose a slight challenge for those with mobility issues, but once checked in, you will find a small but fully functional lift that provides easy access to the rooms on the upper floors.

The location of the hotel is one of its standout features. It’s situated directly across from the Denfert-Rochereau metro station, with the RER B line and Orlybus terminal just a short walk away. This made our daily commuting incredibly easy, whether we were heading to central Paris or catching a bus to the airport. Additionally, Gare de Montparnasse is close enough for a pleasant stroll, providing further connectivity.

The surrounding neighbourhood is lively and filled with options for dining and shopping. From charming local cafés and restaurants to a 24-hour Monoprix nearby, we found it easy to grab a meal or pick up essentials whenever we needed them.

As for our room, it was small but very clean, quiet, and comfortable, with soundproofing that ensured a peaceful night’s sleep despite the central location. The free Wi-Fi worked reliably, and the staff were always welcoming and ready to assist with any questions or recommendations. The hotel also offers a limited laundry service, which we found useful during our longer stay.

Breakfast is served in a cosy dining area, where a continental spread of fresh croissants, bread, jams, fruit, and coffee awaited us each morning. It was a simple but satisfying way to start the day before heading out to explore the city.

The hotel’s proximity to attractions like the Catacombs of Paris and the historic Lion of Belfort monument at Place Denfert-Rochereau made it an excellent location not only for transport but also for sightseeing. We found ourselves exploring these nearby landmarks during our free time, adding a touch of history and culture to our stay.

Overall, Hotel du Lion provided a great combination of comfort, convenience, and friendly service. The staircase to the reception may be a small inconvenience, but the clean rooms, helpful staff, and prime location more than make up for it. For travellers looking for an affordable and practical place to stay in Paris, this hotel is a solid choice.
