The perfect hotel
The hotel is very central and just 5-6 stops from gare du Nord. We got off at les halles. Super simple.
Whilst we waited we were offered a complimentary pastry.
The room which was a junior suite was perfect. The bed very comfortable, the bath and shower were great. Really a beautiful unique hotel. Very happy we booked here. The writing is quite literally on the wall...many people return. I can see why. Merci beaucoup

Nice room in a super convenient location
I was pleasantly surprised by Hotel Crayon! The value was good and the room was clean and comfortable and had nice L'Occitane toiletries. The location is perfect if it's your first time in Paris or if you have limited time and want convenience. The staff was lovely and welcoming.

Excellent location for walking to many famous sites and exploring. We stayed in two different rooms at the start and end of our trip and the real life experience of the rooms fell short of the amazing photos on here. Not included in photos - the hallways are super narrow with stained carpet. Stay here for convenience but lower your expectations for the room’s vibes.
