Perhaps not as central as some hotels, this is still very convenient. It is very close to the Nation metro and its multiple lines. The area has lots of restaurants and stores; including a Monoprix around the corner. The rooms are clean and attractive and the breakfast buffet is a good value. I found the staff to be kind and...

The room and bathroom were small but this was an excellent hotel: clean, modernised and tidy Staff were courteous and welcoming. Despite the busy street and market, no sound got through the double-glazed windows. Really good value for money. The breakfast was not up to the same standard. Coffee much too strong and tepid. The spread gives great choice but... More

My son and I toured Paris for 5 days and stayed at the Agate Hotel. We had a great experience. It was always clean, the staff was wonderful, and the room was perfect for our needs. We ate the breakfast the last day and it was very good. The location is away from most of the sights but with the... More

We stayed there on August 2010 for 6 nights and had standard double room on 4th or 5th floor facing street. There was a French balcony and from window you could see a little bit of Eiffel Towers top. Nearest metro station (Nation) was very close (200 meter) and the most important metro trains for a tourist stopped there. Room... More

My wife and I recently stayed at the Agate Hotel in Paris for seven nights. We found the hotel to be located just a short walk from a Metro station making it a very convenient location for the sights of Paris. Around the hotel are lots of shops, supermarkets, restaurants and cafes so one need never go hungry. There is... More

I booked one night at Hotel Agate because I thought the price was ok (70 euros), the location was decent (RER line A, we were just coming in from Disneyland) and i was (falsely) impressed by the photos of the rooms. Upon checking into the hotel, the man at the reception gave me a really hard time (read: was an... More

You will be glad you took a chance on the Agate. As a fellow reviewer said; it's not in tourist central, but get out your guide book, figure out the map and get on with it. The price was right which was the main reason for staying there. I didn't notice the area being dicey; but then again, I put... More

I felt totally cheated by the staff. They charged me one more day, as I was 10 min delayed in coming out of check-out time. I travel all over the world but never faced such situation. Room reservations were all jumbled--up and I got a smelly, small room in the end. Later I found out from another guest- that all... More

First of all, we planned to stay in Agate Hotel for three nights...but the location was way far away from the attractions and the surrounding area was sooo terrible and not safe at all. We then decided to cancelled the rest of the two nights...we stayed one night, but the hotel staff ended up charged us three nights in total.... More

This is a great little hotel. Once you get over the how tiny the rooms are, you will find that the hotel is in a really good location especially where connectivity with the Paris Metro is concerned. It is situated just minutes way from the Nation metro ( Metro 1 ) stop which connects to all the main attractions all... More
