80%Avenir Hotel

The location of the hotel was very ideal...across the street from the metro, and down the street from Sacre Couere. Breakfast was provided.

Great views of sacre cur from our window but lots of street noise. Bathroom was really smelly. Good location, easy from metro.

Big room with balcony, beautiful view. Good location, near supermarket although be careful ordering drinks in bars near the Moulin Rouge - we got stung with a €19 bill for a demi beer and glass of wine at one bar. Would definitely stay there again.close

A very average experience.... the shower was horrible. Either scalding or freezing and left you feeling crappy to start off your day. Our hostel showers were 100 times better. Other than that very bad characteristic it was just normal, but kind of expensive.

The lady was very nice at the front, however, when inquiring about our shuttle to Beauvais airport (which I do not reccommend using it is way too far) we were given the wrong information about the price of the shuttle (20 euros turned out to be 120 euros to the driver when he picked us up) which was not appreciated. If you want a quiet nights sleep, it is not the place as a bar is right on the corner with people talking until at least 3 am, so it was incredibly difficult to sleep with a bunch of drunkies outside your window. The rooms and the bathrooms were nice and clean and the location was good. Plan your airport transfers in advance.close

Lovely view of Sacre Coeur from our window, right next to Anvers metro, nice breakfast (the strong coffee in particular was great!). The carpet was quite grotty but judging by the roll of carpet in the hall I think it was due to be replaced! Overall, a clean, basic room in a good location, we'd...

We've stayed in room #41 and the view was amazing. We went to sleep and woke up with Sacre Coeur looking at us. The staff is really friendly and always willing to help you. I'd definitely stay there next time I'm in Paris. I hope you can enjoy it as much as we did.

Quite a small and rather dated hotel in Paris but with great views of Le Sacre Coeur! Two minutes from the metro and breakfast was brought to the room each morning! Perfect for what i needed it for, somewhere clean and comfy to rent my head after a long day shopping in Paris!

I was surprised to find into the heart of Montmartre a quite lovely hotel with a very friendly staff. I was also impressed by the oportunity of having breakfast in bed. The metro station just in front of the hotel adds another thumb up to the Avenir....I really liked it...thanks

The radiator in the room is freezing cold and doesn't keep the room warm at all... this gets worse when u r staying in Paris during winter season... do bear in mind that the receptionist might not speak English too.. the only advantage is that the hotel is pretty near to Metro station...

A good starting point to explore the city. Excellent location next to the Métro, clean enough, decent breakfast, building could use a make-over sooner rather than later (crooked doors, broken toilet seat). Staff were very friendly and helpful. Would stay there again.
