Choice Opera - Department Stores hotels in Paris, France

Perfectly located in a side street around 15 minutes walk from the large department stores and no more than 10 minutes from Gare Du Nord this hotel is great for exploring Paris. There is a metro round the corner but if you don't mind walking it is easy to get to various sights if you want to take a leisurely stroll. The hotel is extremely clean and while the room is small it had everything I needed and free wi-fi was also a bonus. The bathroom was also small but spotless and both the sink and shower had hot water within seconds. The reception staff were more than helpful and spoke extremely good English and were even able to lend me a phone charger for the duration of my stay. At nearly £200 for 2 nights room only that seems expensive but when you compare to other hotels in the area it is in fact extremely reasonable for Paris. Breakfast is 10 Euros extra but well worth it with a good and unlimited continental selection so you could certainly get your moneys worth. They also offer a room (for free) to leave luggage after you have checked out so you're not having to lug a bag around Paris if your trip home isn't until the evening. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.
