City Résidence Paris Saint-Maurice

Very pleasant room, well-appointed, recently redecorated, comfortably furnished. Nice bedding and bathroom. The reception staff were very pleasant and helpful. The building is very close to the A4 motorway yet sufficiently shielded by other buildings that it would have been quiet but for building works on a kindergarten across the street. The location is 6-7 minutes' walking distance to the metro station Charenton-Écoles on line M8, along a (mostly) pedestrianised street lined with cafés and shops. There are many more cafés and restaurants in the area, and a market is held beside the metro station twice a week. The big Bois de Vincennes (wooded parkland) is close by, and ideal for walking, cycling, jogging. Central Paris is easily accessible via M8 and various other lines it connects with, as are the main railway stations.

The location was very nice - a calm and pretty neighborhood with all you need around the corner. The staff was very friendly and helpful, sometimes we just needed to get back to the reception desk to manage some details, but they were reacting immediately :). Our room was comfortable and spacious enough for 4 people for a week-long stay, the same goes for the bathroom. The kitchen was equipped with all the basic tools you might need, there was even a small selection of teas. We would likely come back for a long stay.

The apartment was clean with a lift. All facilities were included. The bathroom and the kitchen were modern and fully equipped.

Room was well set out and had all the basics that you need. Double glazing helped keep out noise from busy highway very close. Very friendly staff especially when we arrived a lot later than expected.

We were very happy with our stay at the Appart/Hotel. We had the comfort of 2 double bed, bedrooms and a pull out double sofa-bed in the living room, if needed. We had a separate Toilet to the Bathroom and a separate hallway with storage shelves and coat storage. The kitchen was fully equipped, although for our 4 day stay we only used it 2 evenings for meals. The TV worked and we had wonderful views over the river from our 6th floor. We had opted for Breakfast in the hotel and it suited our needs as we were sightseeing every day and didn't want to miss the early starts. The staff were helpful at all stages of our visit, from the night porter to the daytime staff (all had excellent English). The local area had a Supermarket. a Bakery, a Tabac/Bar, Post Office and a Pizza Hut. Over the Bridge (less than 10 minute walk) there is a Metro to the City on Line 8 - (A 35 minute trip into Place de la Concorde). There was also a Church and plenty of places to eat out near the Metro.
