Friendly staff, all fluent in English as well, of course, in French. Comfortable rooms, those on the top floors have a wonderful view of Ave Du Gen Leclerc and the famous "Lion of Denfert-Rochereau" and each room on the top stories seems to have a small balcony. Great location about a half a block from the RER B station and... More

Located less than a block from both the Orly Bus stop and the RER B Station add the super friendly staff plus some of the best bakeries in Paris within 100 meters of the hotel...what more could one ask for. I recommend this hotel even if it is a bit on the spendy side, you are after all in Paris.

I had not stayed at Hotel du Lion in three years. I was pleasantly surprised during my last visit in February when I stayed for two weeks. One of the important changes for me was the availability of wifi throughout the hotel. I was able to get work done as well as check for sites and events around Paris without... More

This was our third trip to Paris, and as we already knew where the Hotel du Lion was we chose to stay here for one night. It's easy to get to - just take the RER B from Charles de Gaulles airport or Gare du Nord station to Denfert Rochereau. The intersection is busy but we didn't hear the noise... More

Had a lovely stay in Paris at Hotel Du Lion. Room was a nice size, with three large windows, which was good, we even had a slight view of the Eiffel Tower! In a good location, just a short stroll to Montparnasse, and a metro right outside the door. Definitely will be staying here the next time we're in Paris.

We stayed at this hotel for 2 nights because it was convenient to the bus to Orly Airport (the depot was just across the road). The hotel is above a very busy restaurant, which is a popular spot after work for people to gather at the tables on the footpath, so initially we were concerned about the noise from there.... More

I stayed at this hotel in September 2012 and was very pleased by the experience. The neighborhood is beyond lovely, really Parisian and almost surreal. There are parks, lovely buildings with Victorian architecture, two bakeries, a supermarket, a pharmacy, restaurants, McDonald's, a Zara and many others. I was quite surprised of the variety of options in the neighborhood. The hotel... More

This hotel is conveniently located in a real parisian neighborhood at Denfert-Rochereau metro/RER stations. By foot, it takes 15 minutes to reach Jardin du Luxembourg and about 30 minutes to reach the Seine and Ile de la Cité. My room had been renovated, was clean and very well soundproofed (the only downside is that you have to shower in a... More
