Hotel de la Porte Doree is a great value boutique hotel, located a few minutes by metro from the downtown tourist path and only a few blocks from the Bois de Vincennes where you can enjoy a morning jog or take the children on a picnic by the lake. From Hotel de la Porte Doree, you can walk to the center of Paris along an old roman viaduct that has been transformed into an elevated garden, “la promenade plantée”, also called “la coulée verte”. If you prefer, you may stay on avenue Damesnil and follow the brick arches of the viaduct that now hold a string of design galleries and workshops called, the “Viaduc des Arts”. The avenue Daumesnil where Hotel de la Porte Doree is located is a typical Parisian street, with its flowers, vegetables and butcher shops. The metro line 8 will take you direct to Bastille, the old Opera house and Concorde and the bus 46 will take you direct to Gare du Nord.

Reviews about the location

My reason for coming to Paris was to see the band Jamiroquai perform at the Bercy arena. I am a recent college graduate on a tight budget and one of my friends who is from Paris told me to look in to Port Doree! I am so glad he did! For the money I paid, I got a comfortable, clean and safe room in a hotel that was less than a 10 minute ride from the arena. The hotel staff was very friendly and helped me figure out the metro system! They recommended great restaurants and also told me the places to stay away from!

Pros

Very lovely, charming Hotel & staff! I felt very welcome and enjoyed the stay! Beautiful decoration and interior design, just Perfect :)

Metro could be heard & felt in the room on the ground floor. Also people from the next room could be heard.

Pros

Very clean, charming inn-like hotel with a very nice, friendly staff.

Cons (show this one show all)

Not too many - though the rooms, at least my room was pretty small. But that didn't bother me at all, because I was a single traveler and I didn't come to Paris to stay inside a hotel room.

Pros

The hotel is about 10 feet from the exit of the metro line. It is absolutely charming. The staff is very friendly and extremely helpful. The breakfast is great too.

Cons (show this one show all)

The only con is the distance from most of the main attractions.

Pros

I honestly would have nothing bad to say about this hotel, everything was first class. Whilst not in the centre of Paris all the major attractions are only 20 minutes on the Metro which is much easier than a 300 euro a night hotel.

Date of stay: From 2011-11-26 to 2011-11-28

Pros

The hotel is small but very beautiful; the location is great because it's a bit out of the center and the noise, but thanks to the proximity of the metro stop, it will just take 15-20 minutes to get to the heart of Paris. The staff were very friendly and very helpful: they have made available the room upon arrival, even if the check-in should have been after more than 3 hours and offered us the opportunity to hold in custody the bags for the day of departure. 24h open. The room is not huge, but very clean, tidy, warm and welcoming. The bathroom was clean, the shower was not great but clean, with shower gel also available. The hotel is 100% non-smoking, this has been very positive for us! Available safe-deposit box & Tv. We can not make any comment on the breakfast because we have not done in the hotel, but the breakfast room seemed well stocked! Very positive review!!

Pros

Very clean room, very nice and helpful staff, and the tourist resources that were in the room (It was equipped with a Rick Steves book)

Cons (show this one show all)

The shower experience was awful. Other than that I have no complaints about the hotel. But I could not manage to get the water to stay warm- It was always either freezing and scalding hot.

Pros

Lovely hotel. Friendly service. Comfortable room & bed. Close to the metro & bus services into the city centre. Close to Bois de Vincennes if you love long walks around parkland & woods. Excellent restaurant (Brasserie Les Cascades) nearby too.

Cons (show this one show all)

Very few really. But not ideal if you want city nightlife as the hotel is about 20mins away on the metro.

It is farther away from the tourist-esque part of town so if you want to be in the heart of that, the location may not be ideal, however, on the metro it is only about 15 minutes to get in the middle of everything!

Pros

For the most part, a very comfortable room. Good value for the money. I very much appreciate your commitment to environmental preservation measures and organic fair trade practices.

Cons (show this one show all)

Shower stall very small. .. .. good thing I am. I would have likely tried your breakfast, but I couldn't justify 10 euros with the exquisite bakery across the street for less than half the price. .. I would have considered it for 7 euros still a little steep, but doable. The metro was very conveniently located. I found that there were times that I had to make at least 2-3 transfers to get where I needed to go.

Pros

The hotel is close to the Metro and many and varied restaurants. Reasonable price for the room Even for the room facing the busy street, it is fairly quiet.

Cons (show this one show all)

The three rooms we have stayed before are affected by the rumbling and some vibration from the underground Metro. Some rooms are worse than other. The recent room we have in the back is significantly less affected.

Pros

This is the perfect Hotel to land in when coming to Paris. The city is overwhelming and can be very intimidating, but this hotel provides a comfort and safety factor that can put the 'nervous tourist' to rest. You can access the Metro right out the front door and the surrounding area is very nice with cafes and shops close. We very much enjoyed our stay and would definitely go back.
