The Tamaris Hotel Paris Hotel is budget-friendly accommodation located in the east of Paris. It is convenient to most of the city’s major attractions. Rooms are decorated simply and stylishly. Accommodation comes with a satellite television and en suite bathroom with shower. The Tamaris Hotel Paris Hotel reception area is open twenty-four hours a day and there is access to free Wi-Fi in this area. The reception staff speak French, English and German. Breakfast is served every morning in the breakfast room. This is continental style and offers breads, pastries, cereals and yoghurts along with hot drinks. Room service is available for an extra charge. The hotel is ideally located near to public transport with Porte de Vincennes metro just two minutes walk. The Lourve is twenty minutes by metro. Champs Élysées is a half hour journey and Disneyland Paris is only forty minutes away by car.
For many, the main plus point about this hotel is its nearness to public transport. It’s just a couple of minutes to the metro and the M1 line, which goes directly to the Louvre. For those on a budget it offers good value for money, with easy access to the sights of Paris.
The staff at the reception desk are professional and welcoming. If asked for help, they are only too happy to oblige. The majority speak English, but some former guests had difficulties being understood. They help make guests feel welcome with their friendly attitude.
The rooms are cleaned regularly and the large towels are changed every day. Beds are comfortable and with good mattresses and toiletries are also provided for guests in the bathrooms.
Some found the hotel too noisy. The issue is not with exterior sounds but from the neighbouring rooms and corridors, with the sounds of voices and doors slamming carrying into other rooms.
As with many hotels in Paris, the Tamaris has rather small rooms. Guests used to larger, newer accommodation may find the rooms too small for their liking. The shower is likewise very small and is difficult to manoeuvre in for taller people. The hotel also features an old style lift, but this too is on the small side, only suitable for one person.
This hotel has a policy for retaining guests’ keys while they are out sightseeing, or for an evening meal. Many former guests weren’t happy with this policy and worried about the security aspect of leaving their valuables behind in their rooms. Guests do have the option of using a safe, which is available on request.
