EST HOTEL, Paris

The hotel is located in the 10th arrondissement, a short walk from both Gare de l'Est and Gare du Nord train stations, providing direct access to the RER B line for Charles de Gaulle Airport. The area is well-served by metro lines (Gare de l'Est station, 400m) and bus routes, making it easy to reach the Centre Pompidou, the Marais district, and the Louvre. Numerous restaurants, cafes, shops, and a supermarket are within a 5-minute walk. The neighborhood is lively and busy, which can feel less safe to some after dark, particularly around the stations. Walking to the Louvre takes about 35 minutes.

The hotel offers a range of room types including twin, double, triple, and family rooms. The rooms are functional but small, with some featuring a private balcony or patio. Each room includes a TV with satellite channels, a safety deposit box, and free toiletries. Some rooms have a kettle, while others may not. Ventilation is via an openable window only, as there is no air conditioning. A small fan is provided during summer. The bathroom can be very compact, with a small shower cubicle. Soundproofing between rooms and from the street is very poor; street-facing rooms on lower floors experience significant noise. Rooms on higher floors or facing the courtyard are quieter.

A continental buffet breakfast is offered daily from 07:00 to 10:00 at a cost of 9 EUR per person. The breakfast includes bread, croissants, cheese, ham, yogurt, cereal, fruit, juice, and hot drinks. The selection is simple and sufficient, but can be limited and may occasionally lack items. Fresh, quality items are generally available. The breakfast room is located in the basement.

The hotel provides free WiFi throughout the building. The 24-hour front desk offers luggage storage before check-in and after check-out, which is very convenient for guests with late trains or flights. A lift is available. Other services include room service, a safety deposit box (free), and access to a computer at the reception. The hotel does not have its own parking. Cribs can be provided upon request. Accepted payment methods include American Express, Visa, Carte Bleue, and MasterCard.

The hotel does not have a pool, spa, gym, or other leisure facilities. The surrounding area offers many restaurants, bars, and shops, and the Canal Saint Martin is a pleasant 10-minute walk away for a stroll or evening drink.
