Hôtel Royal Phare in Paris

My wife and I stayed 3 nights at the Hotel Royal Phare in mid-September, 2010. Size: Small but big enough. Cleanliness: The room and bathroom were clean. Bathroom: Private bathroom. The shower is extremely small. Just barely big enough to squat to the floor if you drop the soap. Great water pressure and plenty of warm water. Not much space or “hook points” to hang a clothesline. Location: This hotel is in a great location. A metro station is located just steps from the front door which made it extremely easy to travel. Walk 5 minutes and you can see the Eiffel Tower. To actually reach it is about a 15-minute walk. We also walked (maybe 45 minutes?) to the Louvre. A grocery store is right next door. Rue Cler is a 2-minute walk away. Miscellaneous: When reserving the room, we requested a room with a view of the Eiffel Tower. They didn’t put us in one. We didn’t mention it when we checked in since it really wasn’t a big deal but it would have been nice for them to go that extra step and honor our booking request without having to ask. Elevator available but is only the size of a small phone booth (1 person). Free wifi. Breakfast available for purchase but we didn’t. Summary: I recommend this hotel for budget-minded travelers who want a clean, conveniently-located place in Paris.

This incredible hotel is located just a short walk away from the Eiffel Tower! On the street it’s located on, there is a grocery shop just next door, lots of restaurants alongside & across the road, a souvenir shop with gifts, and a staircase leading underground to the metro station. While visiting Paris as a tourist, I stayed here for a couple days and the rooms are very comfy, the rooms also offer a safe to keep your valuables inside & a mini fridge, and the reception service was absolutely incredible! The receptionist’s were able to speak both French & English which was very helpful for us, & they provided us with a map & lots of advice for navigating the big city! Overall the room was comfortable, service was so so helpful, location was very convenient! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great location in the Kensington area away from the major tourist areas.

Simple but totally acceptable small hotel in a fantastic locale, easy walking to Eiffel tower and other sites in a characterful treelined neighborhood. Everything one could expect from an (relatively) inexpensive, just for sleeping, accomodation. Good.

Great location, good value
It was not clear to us that we would be charged for the small breakfast
