Guest Reviews
- Christine (10/5): - Room, hotel lobby and dining area are extremely nice. Attractions are walkable and local transportation is close. The staff were always helpful.
- Alborz Rezazadeh (8/5): - The area around the hotel is quite nice. The room was extremely small. There was literally no space to open up a luggage. Also, the staff did not offer any help to take the luggage to our room, while there was an extra set of stairs for us to get to our room and there was no ramp.
- Elizabeth (10/5): - Staff at front desk weee awesome. Nice location. Nice room. Convenient restaurant and bar. Pool and sauna.
- ROB (10/5): - Excellent food and location, but small rooms, only to be expected in a boutique hotel. Would happily book again.
- Orit (6/5): Disapointing - Not a 5 star hotel, not the facilities nor the service.
- frederick D (10/5): - This is a beautiful hotel on a pretty, quiet street in an interesting area of Paris. Everyone was very nice and we quire enjoyed our stay. Our room was reasonably large by European standards, and quite well appointed. The courtyard bar/restaurant is very attractive and a wonderful place to have a glass of wine or a nice desert. Great value.
- Neil (10/5): - Very friendly staff. Lovely hotel in a terrific location.
- Christopher (6/5): Great staff, but only a 3-star hotel - The hotel claims to be a five star property. Unfortunately, it is a three star property. The rooms are small, the lobby is small, and the amenities are mediocre. However, the staff was wonderful! Please see the pictures below and you’ll understand why this is a three star property.
- Marie (8/5): - The deluxe room was really nice, spacious. The AC was good as well. There is a kettle, tea bads and large mugs, which is rare, and appreciated. Only 4 stars because you can't use the pool and sauna unless you reserve, and there is no availability on the same day. If you don't want to plan you Paris stay around the hotel's pool schedule, you are unlikely to be able to use it
- Samuelle (8/5): - The staff was very friendly and the hotel is in a good location, close to Montmartre and the train station. The food at the restaurant was good. However, it is a little pricey. I will recommend this place when going to Paris
- Sathish (10/5): An Absolute Gem in Paris - Exceptional Service and - Our stay at Hotel Le Ballu was truly outstanding, and we cannot recommend it highly enough! First and foremost, the location is absolutely amazing, perfectly situated for exploring Paris. What truly set this hotel apart, however, was the incredible staff. Tomas, the Front Desk Manager, was incredibly helpful and accommodating. He consistently went above and beyond to assist us with everything, always with a genuine smile on his face. His dedication made a huge difference to our trip. In the restaurant, Abdullah was equally great, providing truly fantastic customer service. He was attentive, friendly, and made our dining experiences a pleasure. Even at 3 AM during checkout, Sam's helpful nature was simply amazing. It's rare to find such cheerful and efficient service at that hour, and it made our early departure seamless. Beyond the wonderful staff, we also loved the overall ambiance and, of course, their cappuccino is amazing! We genuinely loved the location, the entire staff, and every aspect of our stay. We would come back again in a heartbeat!
- Surya (10/5): - Good property in nice location close to bus/ metro
- Daniel (8/5): - Its ok but not 5 stars
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Top notch service. Cool area to stay. Away from crowds
- Zejna (10/5): - Beautiful hotel. Would stay again!!
- Sungeun (10/5): - 10/10
- Mandee (10/5): - Staff was amazing - they dove in and helped us with transportation, without them, we’d miss our connecting trains to Aix-en-Provence. The complimentary spa and restaurant was lovely too!
- Daniel (10/5): Lovely hotel - Gorgeous hotel, great location, excellent staff and comfortable bed!! Can’t wait to try the spa tomorrow!
- robin (10/5): - Very cute boutique hotel. Food and staff GREAT!
- Sheila (10/5): - Quiet, great location, amazingly comfortable bed, little kitchenette and pool was a plus. Room was a little small for me as I needed a desk to work, and I had to put my suitcase on the luggage rack in the bathroom to access it. Small is expected in Paris, and I got a good rate so I didn't complain. The pool is heated to a perfect temperature, its about 5 feet deep so you can swim or run the length and has jets for your back after a long day walking, and the sauna is perfect. You can use for 45 minutes a day as a guest, no extra charge. Next time I would reserve a larger room, but I would definitely return to this very beautiful and well serviced hotel in a great location with a pool!
- Jonathan (10/5): - Very hospitable staff, wonderful restaurant and clean rooms. Didn’t make it the the spa but private steam / sauna time as complimentary.
- Nicole (10/5): - All the staff are very helpful and the location is very fun.
- Aman (10/5): - Le Ballu is situated in an ideal location, with the train and bus station conveniently located nearby. The room was spotlessly clean, and the staff was incredibly helpful. We had a wonderful experience and would definitely plan another trip to Le Ballu.
- Emil (10/5): Lovely stay - Very helpfull with glutenfree breakfast. Very nice Place in evening for a drink.
- KUMALA (10/5): Fantastic boutique luxury hotel - Le Ballu is 1 of the 2 hotels I stay at when I travel to Paris. It’s fantastic. The food the service the location, the rooms.
- Tobias (10/5): Nice spot, private mini-spa! - This was a very nice hotel! Quiet in the hotel, close to cafés and subway. Wonderful small spa with sauna and pool that you booked for just yourself. Very nice restaurant at the hotel in the courtyard. Wonderfully designed interior of the whole hotel
- Vince (10/5): - Loving clean and safe hotel near the Metro. Thomas the hotel reception manager was so great and helpful! Very good customer service all round
- Verified traveler (8/5): Great hotel but minor critique. - Great location and style of hotel, spa is good and so is the service at the restaurant. Some small things that stopped it being a 5 star and only 4.... no travel tooth paste in bathroom provided, the tv connect system does not work despite us both trying on both phones and doing all the steps, restaurant staff very helpful but both the reception staff seemed a little cold and not very friendly/ did not seem willing to help when asked questions. Cleaning staff where also so loud in the mornings you could hear them through the walls which is a disturbance.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Grateful - I have stayed more than once. Most of the staff I encountered were very kind, genuinely very interested in being of service, knowledgable of the best ways to do so, and put those things into action with a mature emotional state and professional behavior. Three in particular went above and beyond and I am very grateful. I appreciate the gentle cleaning products upstairs, though I did notice a stronger fragrance smell in the lobby. I also appreciated the ability to not have the room attended to daily to save water, energy, and my own privacy. The beds are not the most comfortable for my tastes, but I slept well: I have had rooms at the back facing the courtyard- after arriving at night the last time, I was surprised to see loud construction leaving the next morning - I had no awareness of it from the courtyerd outside of my room. I was told the partner of the owner designed the space and, for those with an eye for such things, all the little touches will reveal themselves throughout your stay. Would return and recommend.
- Axel (10/5): - Tolles Hotel in super Lage.
- Akira (10/5): - We chose this hotel for our honeymoon. The room was very cute and decorated in tricolor. The breakfast was delicious, and the champagne on the terrace was fantastic. The most reassuring and delightful thing was that the staff was very kind to us, even though we spoke only poor English. I am filled with gratitude. Thanks to you, we had a very good trip. I would like to stay there again.
- Anne-Laure (8/5): - Super emplacement ! Très accueillant ! Piscine/jacuzzi/sauna privatif au top
- Joy (10/5): - Had a great stay !
- SUSAN (10/5): - The hotel was amazing. Beautiful large room, beautifully appointed. Restaurant was lovely for breakfast or lunch. We didn’t have dinner so can’t rate that. Concierge/reception service was amazing. So helpful with great restaurant recommendations. The neighborhood felt a tiny bit sketchy. Otherwise the Rayo g would’ve been 5 stars around. Highly recommend!!
- John (10/5): - Excellent facility with excellent professional helpful staff
- Verified traveler (10/5): Two thumbs up - Really accommodating staff, lovely well designed rooms and spacious. Beautiful restaurant and thoughtful amenities. Convenient location—two thumbs up
- Robert (10/5): - Great hotel in 9e ans about a 20 mins walk to Coeur (Montmartre) as well as being close to metro lines. The hotel is clean, staff provide excellent service with a smile. There are so many hotel options in Paris and this was in our top two finally - would stay again. Cannot comment on dining and spa (and pool) as we didn’t have time to check them out.
- yo sub (10/5): - Very beautiful hotel. Would absolutely come back again, staff were incredible and kind. The private spa session definitely made my day
- rachel (10/5): - Excellent service. Beautiful room with unique features. Fantastic spa/pool that can be reserved.
- Patrick (6/5): - No
- Jaycie (10/5): - We only stayed the night but wished we stayed longer. It was really great having the pool to ourselves since you had to book a reservation for the spa. The room was clean and large. The staff was amazing and friendly: It was also in a good location as well.
- Cara (10/5): - Very responsive prior to arrival. Easy and helpful check in. Our room was perfect for family of 5.
- Russell (10/5): - Beautifully designed, excellent restaurant and very nice pool/ sauna. Our room was very small without a desk or sufficient storage.
- P T (10/5): - What a nice hotel. Check in was so easy , the room was so nice and the staff was friendly. A great experience!!!
- Verified traveler (8/5): Great rooms and location - Great hotel, spacious room, very clean. Front desk lacks hospitality, not having a bell hop to take your luggage to o the room when you arrive is a miss for me. Especially for a higher end hotel. I would definitely stay again and give them another chance.
- Ivan (10/5): - Staff friendly. They treat you great
- Rudy (10/5): Love this hotel - Love this hotel & now our go-to hotel in Paris - booked another stay before even checking out on our first one. Great staff, great room, priced right & just an overall great place.
- John (10/5): Honeymoon stay in Paris - Had an amazing stay during our time in Paris for our honeymoon. Thomas and the rest of the concierge team were exceptional and would love to come back and stay there again during our next trip. !
- Joan Esther (10/5): - Great location. Easy walk to restaurants and other attractions. Very attentive staff who willingly spend time with and provide assistance to guests. Impeccable rooms and a fine restaurant
- Joan Esther (10/5): - Very classy place in a great area. Easy access to Metro. Lots of restaurants in walking distance. A great choice
- Sheri (10/5): - I stayed here with my teenage son on a short stop through Paris. The staff were wonderful and friendly. The room was lovely - the inside seating area in the room was perfect to devour local pastries and plan our day, and the terrace was lovely for a little nightcap! And, of course, the highlight was our private pool and sauna time. An absolutely wonderful tranquil treat on an otherwise busy trip!
- Gregory (10/5): - Great pool in basement, no place
- Ian (10/5): - Very clean wonderful staff good location
- Sophie (10/5): - We loved our stay at Hotel Ballu. We stayed for a weekend in January in a Deluxe Double; the hotel is easily walkable (~25 mins) from Gare du Nord with similar distances to the 'top' of Montmarte and Opera. We barely used the metro at all. We were celebrating my boyfriends birthday and the staff had helped me arrange balloons in the room, a handwritten note and complimentary sweets on arrival. The fluffy robes and slippers were great and we enjoyed the private use of the pool/sauna area. Comfy bed, nice products in the bathroom and would definitely recommend.
- HOWARD (10/5): - Staff is very helpful and accessible. Location for walking, bus or metro is good.
- Derek (10/5): - Great location with lots of cool places to eat and have a coffee. Easy walking to the centre of Paris. The bed was amazingly comfortable.
- Nicholas (8/5): - Thoroughly enjoyed our stay
- Felicity (10/5): - Really beautiful hotel. Our room was super clean and the decor was amazing. All of the public areas of the hotel too - clean and stunning. We used the spa every day of our stay - definitely worth booking your hour in each day it was lovely to go in there after a long day of walking. Beds were comfortable, bathroom was beautiful and the room had everything you could need. Reception was really helpful and great service throughout. We also ate lunch at the restaurant on our last day and that again was great the setting is lovely and food & service was 10/10. Location wise we found it to be perfect. Walking distance to Montemarte, a really short walk to Pace de Clichy metro & felt safe with plenty to do the whole time we were there. Would definitely recommend and will for sure stay again!
- Beth (10/5): - Great location - quiet street, but convenient and walkable to Montmartre attractions and to train and metro stations. Nicely furnished rooms, nice restaurant and bar. Would stay here again!
- Mary Elizabeth (10/5): - As a solo traveller this property had an excellent location for most of the Paris areas that I wanted to be in - Opera, Louvre, Montmartre and while it is really close to Moulin Rouge it’s not a trashy area. Lots of food choices nearby as well, plenty of cafes and restaurants for all budgets. Hotel bar is nice, cocktails are delicious (need to ask bar staff what’s in them as menu is light on detail.) The hotel staff, in particular the reception staff (especially Estelle) are really friendly and helpful. The pool and sauna are a delight to use, and the pool is high enough for laps. You get fluffy robes and slippers along with a bottle of filtered water everyday in the room, it’s the little things that make a difference!
- Susan (10/5): - The hotel staff was amazing. They really went out of there way to make our stay enjoyable. I booked three Jr. suites and the rooms were spacious and bright. We ate breakfasts at the hotel and found it delicious and beautiful but slow. Our evening dinner was excellent as well. I'm so glad I found this little gem. I will return again.
- Nandakumar (10/5): - quiet, clean and close to tourist spots and restaurants
- Joao Guilherme (10/5): - Excellent stay.
- Jung (10/5): - nice n clean
- Rami (10/5): 5 days in Paris - Family friendly, nice staff, clean and spacious.
- Tanise (10/5): - This hotel was absolutely wonderful. I traveled with my toddler and I felt safe with him. We will be back!
- Shannon (10/5): Beautiful city hotel in a fantastic location - Positives: + Beautiful city hotel in a fantastic location + modern rooms + friendly and welcoming staff Negatives: - small rooms - need to make more sustainability efforts. Only wash towels if on the floor, less plastic toiletries
- Verified traveler (10/5): You can't go wrong with this one - The reviews don't lie. This hotel is great. The staff is very nice and helpful. Very clean. Good rooms and bathrooms. It really deserves the high scores.
- Nadine (10/5): - Lovely all round.
- Kylee (10/5): - Gorgeous property & rooms, friendly & helpful staff, lovely sauna & pool, close to the trendy Pigalle neighborhood & multiple metro stops. Perfect for a couple who doesnt need a ton of space. Note that you'll travel 20-30 minutes by metro to the majority of tourist attractions.
- Mark (10/5): - The private pool and sauna were awesome! It was available at no extra charge - just need to reserve a timeslot.
- Claude (10/5): Our 2 days in Paris - Wonderful place, warm and friendly staff, great neighborhood!
- Heidi (10/5): Nice Hotel in Pigalle - Lovely hotel in Pigalle. Quiet, clean and modern. Very comfy bed. I stayed in a Superior room which was big for a Paris hotel. For 2 people it might be tight as there isn’t anywhere to store luggage. The lights are a bit confusing when you want to turn them all off at night. I just kept twisting dials till I got it right. The rooms have a tea kettle and coffee machine. Le Bally has a small pool and sauna you can reserve if you’d like a dip. There is a restaurant with outdoor patio seating. The food was average, but good in a pinch. Overall, a good hotel for Paris. I would stay here again.
- Helene (10/5): - Love everything about the hotel; helpful and friendly staff at reception and at the great restaurant, the decor is original and the room and bathroom were spacious with all amenities. The food was delicious and the waiters/waitresses knowledgeable and very helpful with recommendations. Great stay all in all!
- Lucy (10/5): - This hotel went beyond my expectations. It is a lovely boutique hotel within walking distance of Sacre Coeur and an easy metro ride to other sites. The staff are amazing. They are friendly and ensure your stay is great. A huge shout out to Ryan. The pool and the outdoor terrace are wonderful refuge from the heat.
- Karin Crump (10/5): - Lovely property with room for our family of 5. The terrace was absolutely perfect and the spa was a nice surprise after walking so many miles around the city. Location is quiet and close to two bakeries for morning coffee and pastries or baguettes. We would definitely stay again.
- jonna (8/5): - Really think the staff here are exceptional!! Received an upgraded room and they were always delightful. I think however there a few quirks in the room..no coverings on some of the windows so sleeping in was not happening and the walls being so dark in all areas felt a little cluster phobic…especially in the bathrooms. Smacked my head at one point…The shower door seemed to stick a lot and fanning your water closet door out was hazardous. The pressure of the shower was not great for long hair. The location was great and I would stay there again but in a different room that was not so dark.
- Jordan (10/5): Great Paris option - Favourite Paris hotel at the moment. Sauna downstairs is a treat.
- Stephen (8/5): - Pleasant boutique hotel in a great location (close to shops, metro, and bars/restaurants) with a beautiful house across the street. Room had nice touches like digital interfaces, cute sinks in bathroom/wetbar, rug under bed, and grand door opening up to balcony (in my room type). The restaurant has nice outdoor area but was too bright inside for my taste. The dark paint inside does attract dust if not properly dusted each time. Overall, happy about the stay in this unique boutique hotel.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - I had an amazing week staying at hotel Le Ballu! Everything was great, the staff were amazing, super nice, friendly and helpful! Te hotel was clean and lovely, the room was great, the restaurant, the pool, the entire experience was exactly the small boutique hotel that I was hoping it would be. I'm so thankful for finding Hotel Le Ballu and hoping to stay there again soon!! Thank you!
- JOSE LUIS (10/5): Loved it... - Stunning decor and vibe. Public areas are 5*. Rooms are decent sized for Paris and extremely well furnished. Luxe and stylish bathrooms. Very comfortable beds. All extremely clean. The pool/spa in the basement is absolutely delightful. Great non-touristy area. I would have liked to have feather pillows and better curtains in the room, but other than that it was great.
- Pauline (10/5): Great hotel - I absolutely loved staying there. I can't wait for my next visit.
- Pauline (10/5): - The location and the hotel itself is very beautiful. Was able to enjoy Montmartre, a spot we didn’t plan to stay initially but we’re glad we did!
- Robert (10/5): - Loved the decor, and general easy vibe of the property. Room 44 and the terrace were perfect!
- Kristy (10/5): - Clean brand new property with tasteful stylish decor.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Lovely stay at Le Ballu - will book again on my next trip to Paris!
- Verified traveler (4/5): Dark room - The photo of the junior suite is misleading. It's disappointingly much darker than it appears. We were on the first floor at the back facing a courtyard. We had to have the lights on in the room during the day to see anything. The only room with good natural light is the bathroom but who wants to spend all their time there. Also, as we were right above the terrace of the restaurant it was quite noisy. Not the 10/10 experience described!
- MK (10/5): - A true gem in Montmartre. Beautifully decorated. Attention to detail in everything including the food. From breakfast to dinner, you will not be disappointed. And they back it up with excellent service. The hotel is new (opened in July 19) so I sincerely hope they keep that level of quality and as for me I need not look any further when booking for my business trips to Paris.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great little boutique hotel - This is a very new hotel in a great area and within reasonable walks to many of the tourist attractions and the Garde du Nord. The hotel is modern, very clean and comfortable with helpful staff that speak very good English. I would definitely recommend staying here and I am sure that we will stay again when visiting Paris in the future.
- Patti (10/5): - In particular the staff was exceptional! Julia, Maud and Chloe were kind and so very helpful. Delightful!
- Terence (10/5): - Beautiful hotel, very quiet and tranquil. The staff are all very friendly and knowledgeable.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The staff was so accommodating of all requests. Julia in particular was so observant of our preferences and before we could request the next time it was already there. The room was clean and spacious. The steam room and in door pool was a beautiful amenity in the cold weather. We were also lent portable chargers and umbrellas upon request. The hotel is beautiful and the staff was exceptionally great.
- AmandaG (10/5): - LOVED - Pictures on Expedia TOTALLY represented the property/rooms. The location was centrally located to Moulin Rogue which made exploring the area very easy. The shower was a DREAM and being able to open those tall french windiws on the street just completed the french experience The in-house gourmet restaurant for breakfast and supper was FANTASTIC and DELIS! Staff were very knowledgable on the area, taxi costs, etc and were Super Friendly and VERY attentive to make sure our stay was PERFECT! And I do not speak French, but they have staff that do - Definite Plus! The really only 2 possible critiques (if you could even call them that) are 1)the restaurant - it was SOOO Good! You really didnt want to re-venture out after a long day of site seeing for a restaurant/cocktails :) and 2) the elevator which is really small, with 3 of us tall/average weight and 1 carry on was really tight. HOWEVER, they offer to bring any luggage up for you. Again DEFINITE PLUS! They also have an indoor swimming pool that you can reserve for your own use for an hour - TOTALLY privater. Wish i had brought my suit to burn those calories off from their restaurant :) I would DEFINITELY recommend this place to younger/older people/couples as it geared towards that, ie not for kids, who want to experience a true french stay. It EEALLY MADE OUR TRIP!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Comfortable sized room and nice deco. Perfect for working in the room without feeling enclosed or sad . Located close to M2 and M12 , I found it was easy to go to the train station and Left bank. Cute courtyard is perfect for a drink or breakfast , me and my friend enjoyed the night cap there. The only down thing is the pillow is hard and the shower water always splash out even you close the door. Overall a very stylish and comfortable experience.
- Megan (10/5): - Great location, friendly staff, and beautiful rooms! Highly recommended!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - A beautifully designed Hotel in Paris. The chef was incredible, and the wellness spa is privately reserved for you. Beds are very comfortable. Our only feedback is that the dining staff is young and isn’t communicating as a team. We had too many people coming to the table too often. Very eager to please. Nothing that a manager can’t teach. It’s only been open a month, grab the deals before this place becomes well known!!
