We were very disappointed when we arrived at the hotel. Our room was really small and cramped (nothing like the photos on the website). The toilet was separate from the shower and sink. The toilet was directly in front of the bed in what we originally thought was the wardrobe. It had a sliding door and when you were in... More

This was a hotel we booked basically to dump our bags and then spend the night after being out all day. For that purpose it's barely ok. When we got to the hotel at night the 2 guys at reception were clearly drunk. It reeked of alchohol and as two women we felt a little unsafe. The corridors are not... More

In a great city, into the centre of Paris, don't go to Helder Hotel. I booked 6 nights between 26/12 to 1/1 and i couldn afford it for more than 12 hours. The worst hotel i have ever been before. Dirty, dirty, dirty

People at reception were very helpful - all questions answered immediately, generally very friendly and speak good English. Fantastic location, next to boulvard Hausmann with good shopping and boulvard de Italiano with nice restaurants. Walking distance to all the main attractions (Louvre, Eiffel Tower, notre dame de paris, Arc de Triomphe etc). Hotel is a little bit old and gives... More

My husband and I stayed here in September 2010 for one night while we were in Paris to attend a concert. We chose this hotel because of its location nearby to Opera and of course the cost. Honestly, we weren't expecting much and we were not disappointed because of it. I did email ahead to ask that we were NOT... More

Trying to find a lower cost option with good location I found this hotel. I did not hesitate in booking because it sounded attractive tru its website. Once I got there, the location is very good, the attention was good, the elevator was very small (as usual in Paris) and the room was also very small, and it looked not... More

The main feature of the Helder Hotel's publicity is its refurbished rooms but neither of the two rooms for our party of four was recently redecorated. The coverlets in one room on the third floor smelt of smoke, the carpet was stained, there was grime on the bathroom tiles, the toilet in the cramped bathroom smelt of urine and there... More

Hotel Helder had been recommended to us as a reasonable priced Paris option. It was that. I believe we got our room for around $100 Euro plus tax via the internet. It was however, a little bit less than we expected especially given the internet photos. One reason is that I believe we were on the top floor and our... More

The best with this hotel is the location. It is perfect. Near the metro, the Roissy bus to the airport, to shops, restaurants..... When I am in Paris, I usually spend no time in the hotel room. Then this hotel is perfect. The room was very small, but clean. So was the bathroom. Also the elevator was meant for very... More

I booked a SUPERIOR double room with 2 months in advance but any bad as they gave me a room which was at the lower floor and there was an horrible smell of sewer inside and loads of beatles in the bathroom! Unbelievable!! Plus I had to wake... More
