Hôtel Mercure Paris Gare de l'Est Magenta

Too small, and breakfast choices were limited. But in general its okay

We stayed for just one night, we decided to stay in their standard room than their superior room. The standard room was fine for the amount of time we were in the room. The hotel was very well located with lots of bars and restaurants. It is about 8 minutes walk to Gare du Nord train station and close to Gare du l’Est which is another main train station and metro. We decided to pay for breakfast on the day at 18€, paying at the time of booking would of been a cheaper option, as an Accor member, providing a discount on the day is an option the hotel should offer as a benefit for joining their membership. We were please we stayed here and at the time of booking was more affordable than more fashionable areas as transport links were excellent.

Its been a good 21 years since we last stayed in this hotel and it has been worth the wait. Arrived at this hotel from the Opera area, where we had stayed in a Best Western for two nights and it was only a steady 20 minute walk between the two. The room was clean and tidy as was the bathroom with an excellent power shower and a fridge which was a big plus. The hotel room and corridor were not as dark as it was when we first visited. The hotel was centre to where we wanted to go Sacre Coeur (20 mins) and Buttes Chaumont another 25 minutes. A good one night stay in a good hotel in a good location and with excellent staff - what more do you want. Bon journey

Within strolling distance of both Gares du Nord and de l’Est and just off Boulevard Magenta, the hotel is well positioned for arrival from CDG Airport and access to transport links to Paris’s tourist sites. Staff at the hotel were all welcoming and courteous while the room was spacious with sufficient wardrobe space to accommodate a 5 day visit. I would not hesitate to book at the hotel for any future trip.
