The hotel has an un-deserved ranking on the site, it is hard to believe that this hotel is one of the best 10% hotels in Paris. The hotel is simply old, not "antique", nor 'historic" but just simply run-down, it desperately needs a makeover. We had a room facing the main street, we expected to be noisy, but that was... More

It may be that our room, #1, was on the first floor (second floor in America) but every time the metro went by the room rumbled, which did not make for a great night's sleep. I love small Parisienne hotels, but this one was rather thread bare, and the bathroom was missing tiles on the floor, walls, and shower. More

We stayed at the Hotel de la Portee Doree at the beginning and end of our trip to Europe. We were in a superior stateroom the first 5 nights and a classic double room on our last night in Paris. Our experience with the hotel began before we left the United States, when the helpful staff answered my questions about... More

This hotel is situated near a metro stop (Porte Dorée) and near the "peripherique" (ringway) - I stayed here several times for business trips where I had to be in the neighborhood (12th arrondissement) - The rooms are not that big, but nicely decorated and recently modernized. Breakfast is great. The library alongside the stairs is a nice treat in... More

My friend and I stayed at Hotel de la Porte Doree for 3 nights at Easter 2012. We were overwhelmed by the charm of this hotel. Exactly what we expected a Parisian hotel to be like. Our twin room was wonderful with a separate foyer, toilet and bathroom. The decor was very tasteful. The staff were very helpful and we... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this charming little hotel. Although it is on the outskirts of Paris, the metro station is steps away from the front door and it is only a short journey to the centre of Paris. I preferred staying a little out of the centre, as I found it more peaceful and there was more of... More

Charming hotel with easy access to the metro and direct bus access from Gare du Nord Train station. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful, and the room had a basket filled with toys for kids to play with. Breakfast was really nice and it was kids friendly with high chair and plastic cups/dishes which our kids enjoy. The only... More

The staffs were exelent, very helpful and accommodating. Room facilities are great. Bed is very comfy, t.v. Is big and new, water in the shower is strong. But the Internet... More

A lovely quaint hotel close to a beautiful park and chateau and many other interesting sites of Paris. We found the staff at this hotel friendly and helpful. There had been a water problem in our room before we got there and there was some mold in the closet that we were not comfortable with, but they kindly arranged another... More
