Hotel Castex
Nice hotel in a fab location. Room was small and rather hot, but comfortable enough. Whole hotel could do with a really good clean. Staff friendly and helpful.

No wifi...
On the days we stayed at this hotel the wifi was down. Staff told us they will have tech repair tomorrow. Then the next day we asked again, the pushed to the following day. During our stay the wifi never worked, quite disappointed.

This is a decent Parisian hotel in an old building. The rooms are layed out well and make the most of the space. If you are looking for an American style hotel you will be disappointed, but if you are looking for a clean, Parisian experience close to transit and close to a vibrant neighborhood, this is a great place

I had booked a room for my parents to stay as I was ready to go out and enjoy the city on our one night in Paris. As soon as the staff saw there was three of us, he immediately became defensive and said there is no way three can stay. I let him know that the reservation was for my parents and I just needed to leave my bag in the room and he vehemently refused. When my father asked if I could sit in the lobby he again vehemently refused. My parents were so shocked at the rudeness and the capacity of the staffs arguing that they refused their stay knowing we would have nowhere to go for the night.
They were not able to enjoy the reservation that was booked at Hotel Castex because upon our late arrival due to a delayed flight, they were met with the illest of attitudes we’ve ever experienced in hospitality.
The experience has left me with a horrible memory of Paris. Luckily we had a wonderful driver who came back to pick us up and show us around the city before taking us back to the airport while our paid room remains vacant.
The driver was also ashamed of our treatment at this establishment.
I would never, ever recommend this hotel to anyone with a soul.

The room was so small you had to shuffle around the bed sideways, and if you opened your suitcase on the only section of floor large enough for it you couldn’t open the doors to leave.
Probably not an issue for solo travelers but for a 3 star hotel and a family room booking this was insanely small.
