Hotel De France Gare De Lyon Bastille, Paris

The hotel is conveniently located near Gare de Lyon, making it perfect for early morning train rides. The rooms, albeit small and with limited ventilation, were exactly as shown in the pictures. The service was adequate, but some amenities like room service could be improved. The location near the metro station is a major plus, providing easy access to river walks. Unfortunately, the dining options were not included and lacked healthy choices.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were well maintained and clean with modern decor, but they were on the smaller side with a tiny bathroom overlooking a light shaft that had to be kept open for ventilation, offering minimal storage space. The service was satisfactory with room service, dry cleaning, and housekeeping available. The location was very convenient, being very near the train station and close to the Gare de Lyon-Train station for easy access to transportation. Dining options were not included, and there were some jams available. Overall, the hotel offered a decent stay with some room for improvement.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, although a bit small with a tiny bathroom facing a light shaft, were kept very clean, which was a big plus. The location, near Gare de Lyon, was convenient for my early morning train. However, the lack of windows made it feel a bit claustrophobic at times. The on-site dining, although not included, offered delicious homemade cakes. Overall, it was a comfortable stay with some trade-offs.
