This hotel is located about a mile from the eiffel tower, an easy 15 minute walk away. It is in a neighborhood area, that has grocery stores, and a french bakery, and several cafes. Also, near a bus stop, and a 10 minute walk from the metro. The hotel staff leave a lot to be desired. They sold us a bad internet card, that they said would be good for unlimited use for a month, but really was only a 24 hour card. They weren't the friendliest, but the room was clean, and it felt safe. Overall, it was a good hotel. Next time we visit Paris though, I would not stay in this area, because it is far away from many of the sights. Staying near the Louvre, or the Notre Dame, has many other attractions near it. Have fun-and see the eiffel tower at night!

This is just an adorable hotel with a great location and price with A/C. We wanted the A/C incase it was hot out or it was too noisey and needed to close the windows when sleeping. Well it was too noisey since we faced the front of the hotel street, but the A/C was great. The sound proof double panel windows are great. They open nicely during the day for some great fresh air and even in the bathroom! The bed was comfortable and so were the pillows. The drawbacks? Well all rooms are small in Paris, but the cleanliness and location make up for it. Great room makeover every day. It's hard to find A/C in Paris for a price anyway and we paid about 85 euros a day for a great location across the street from the metro and many little cafes. You can also walk to the Eiffel Tower but it is a 20 minute walk. Front desk was very helpful with information and they all speak English (even though I do speak some French). The room did not have and draw space so you would need to work out of your suitcase. TV was adequate but did have a late night adult channel which was a nice change of pace for free. Our room did not have a shower curtain so it must have been listed as a room with bath. You make the choice. I would definitely go back again...again if you're a big person(s) then this is not for you.

We stayed there last year, The staff were very helpful & the rooms were clean & basic, the breakfast was croissants orange juice ect... so was perfectly fine & exactly what we were looking for, we were happy enough with the hotel ( since its so reasonable )... The location is great as you can walk to the Eiffel in just about five minutes & you can see the tower lit up at night from the road of the hotel, Id definately stay there again if i wanted reasonable tourist class accomidation, Its a good hotel !!!!

We stayed at the Beaugrenelle St Charles for a week in April 2003. The rooms are small but have been updated and were clean with particularly good showers.

Staff were pleasant and helpful and there are many excellent cafes in the immediate vicinity. The Metro is accross the road and you can walk to most of the main touris attractions in less than 20 minutes.

The area is clean and has an abundance of trees.

We are going back in 2004 and the hotel is one I would strongly recommend as value for money in the centre of Paris.
