Best Western Bretagne Montparnasse

Amazing time!!

I cannot recommend this hotel. The room was small and smelled of stale smoke. The curtains were yellowed and frayed. The walls were so thin I could hear people using the bathroom in the adjacent rooms. There were small insects which looked like ants on the surfaces in the bedroom and bathroom sink area. Amenities were not replaced after being used, such as coffee cups and complimentary water. The hotel is not served well by common metro lines and is a 10-15 minute walk to the Monteparnasse metro station. This is NOT a 4 star hotel.

It was good. The location convenient, room spacious enough, friendly staff, and good price-value. The best of the hotel is staff, they are friendly and always helpful. The downside of the hotel was the lift during mid-morning. The only lift during usual check-out times is shared with the friendly housekeeping staff. If the room is in the top floor and there are small children to look after (like in my case), beware that waiting time for the lift will be long during these hours. Taking the stairs down is always an option, however, the steps are spiral, which carries some risk when holding small children. I can't think now of any recommendations on that, but is something important to be aware for optimal time management.

The Hotel is good, the room was great!, However a lot of things were not functional in the room, like the bath room sink clogging, could not get the safety box to be programmed with security code, BBC & CNN did not work well due to steaming issues and the room card switch was intermittent, room light would not stay on after entry, washroom flushing was an issue. However, all these issues were more than compensated by Sarah, who was very helpful and had an exceptional Parisian Spirit!. Sarah made our stay very pleasant, always helpful with our constant barrage of questions on how to get around Paris to questions on what interesting spots to go see. She is truly an asset to the Best Western Chain – She was very efficient, tried to address some of our hiccups very promptly and had relentless energy in ensuring our stay was pleasant. Doing all this with a great smile.! Thank You Sarah! Al and Jasmin Thornhill, Canada

Was very convenient for the business conference I attended. The staff were great, very friendly and helpful. The negatives - the room was tiny (typical for Paris) and the breakfast was very limited with the cooked food sparse and lukewarm.
