Left Bank Hotel Guide - 1 star Hotels in Left Bank, France

My wife and I were wanting a good location hotel that had easy access to the Metro and was cheap but simply was a place to sleep to see the sights. This was exactly that. Nothing fancy or amazing but clean and cheap. Breakfast and WiFi complementary was great. Noise was a little annoying but was easy to overcome with ear plugs. Literally a 5 min walk from Notre Dame and Metro. I would definitely come back to this hotel for the price.

We actually reserved with a much more expensive hotel in Paris called La Maison Favart. However, when we arrived at that hotel, they insisted charging us 100 euros more per night because of our 2 small children. So we stayed there one night and came to this Villa Daubenton for the next two nights. Compared to the first much more expensive hotel, Villa Daubenton is half the rate with a room much larger at a better location with a lot more restaurants and bakeries around. The hotel staff was also extremely helpful. The train drivers went on a strike so they cancelled our night train. Therefore, we had to re-book the train and try to get a refund on the cancelled train tickets. The train customer service phone line does not have English option, so the hotel staff at the front desk helped us talk on the phone in French. He also helped us print our new train tickets from his computer. He helped us when we were in a crunch, dealing with unexpected frustration. The hotel room itself or the lobby is not fancy, but the room is clean and nice and big. Plus the staff was very friendly and helpful. I would definitely come back to this hotel and recommend it to other people.

Very basic, few amenities, but clean and super location. Hotel staff was helpful and nice.

Not a particularly grand hotel but has everything you need in a great location with friendly staff. Well connected by metro lines with a spacious room and en suite. I would recommend!

Budget hotel. No escalator, so be prepared to carry your suitcases up very narrow stairs. No aircon or fans in the room. Staff were friendly and allowed us to check in 3 hours early. Good location, metro station just around the corner. Wifi didn't work in our room.

The hotel staff was lovely. Nice hotel in a great location
