HOTEL PAX OPERA, Paris

The hotel sits at 47 Rue de Trévise, a calm residential lane that is less than a 2-minute walk from Cadet Metro station (line 7). This line provides direct access to Gare de l'Est, Gare du Nord (Eurostar/Thalys), the Louvre (10 min), Champs-Élysées (15 min), and the Eiffel Tower (20 min). Within a 15-minute walk you reach Opéra Garnier, Galeries Lafayette, Printemps, and Montmartre. The Grands Boulevards, Folies Bergères, and the Grevin Museum are just around the corner. A supermarket, bakery, pharmacy, and numerous cafés and restaurants are within a minute's walk. Gare du Nord is a 15-minute walk, making the hotel convenient for Eurostar arrivals. The area is lively during the day but the street itself is quiet at night, offering a good balance for city breaks.

Room sizes vary significantly: the Single Budget (9 m²) is a compact courtyard-facing room ideal for solo travellers seeking a quiet, low-cost base, while the Single Classic (11 m²) offers a double bed for single occupancy. The Classic Double/Twin (15 m²) and Superior Double/Twin (17 m²) provide more space for couples, and the Privilege Triple (20 m²) accommodates up to three with three single beds or a double/twin plus a single. The Suite Junior Kitchenette adds a sink, microwave, and fridge - useful for families or self-catering. All rooms feature air conditioning with individual control, heating, soundproofed windows, a flat-screen TV (basic channels, no smart/streaming), hairdryer, safe, and tea/coffee making facilities (availability varies by room - some may lack a kettle). Rooms are generally clean but decor is dated; carpet and bathroom fittings may show wear. The small lift and narrow corridors mean upper-floor rooms may require stair access. No rooms have a balcony.

Breakfast is a continental buffet offering bread, pastries, cereal, juice, hot drinks, cheese, and cold meats. It is served in a pleasant room with tall windows. A continental breakfast can also be delivered to the room between 8:00 and 10:00 upon request. Breakfast costs 15€ per person and can be added at booking or at check-in. The 24-hour bar is a small self-service cabinet with vending drinks; no hot food is available outside breakfast hours. Free coffee and hot drinks are available in the lounge 24/7. The surrounding area offers many cafés, bakeries, and restaurants within a short walk for other meals.

The hotel's leisure offering is limited to a free fitness centre. There is no swimming pool, spa, sauna, or jacuzzi. Board games are available for guest use. The surrounding area provides ample entertainment options: theatres (Folies Bergères, Mogador), the Moulin Rouge cabaret, and the shops of the Grands Boulevards are all within easy walking distance.

Wi-Fi is free and available in all areas. The 24-hour front desk handles express check-in/check-out and concierge services. Luggage storage is free and available for early arrivals and after checkout; bicycles can also be stored securely. An airport shuttle is available for 18€ per person from the hotel to any Paris airport - book at reception. Pets are allowed for 15€ per night. Daily housekeeping is provided; laundry/ironing can be arranged through reception. The hotel does not have its own restaurant but offers a coffee shop on site. A safety deposit box is available at reception. The lift is very small and may not be suitable for guests with mobility issues - the hotel has steps in several areas and is not wheelchair accessible.
