"JDP Al?sia on rue Al?sia is charming"
Posted: Mon, Nov 23 2009
6 of us stayed at the JDP Al?sia, a charming 3-star hotel on rue Al?sia about 1/2 way between 2 m?tro stations. Generally, we used m?tro Al?sia because there is a nice selection of restaurants and even a cin?ma. The staff is very helpful and kind, answering questions and giving directions in English if you need it. The beds are comfortable, the pillows very nice, and the rooms are cleaned daily. There are views of the Eiffel Tower on one side of the hotel. We stayed 5 nights and would return again. There is a hospital and a fire station nearby in case of emergency. The petit-d?jeuner has wonderful croissants, and good cold milk. There is a Monoprix grocery store between the hotel and the Al?sia m?tro station that has fresh fruit and bakery items, including Pain Poil?ne so you don't have to stand in line on rue de Cherche Midi!!! We ordered our loaves ahead of time and picked them up the day before we flew home. The cost is approximately $7.50 compared to $35.00 if you order them and ship them home by Federal Express!!! Along rue Al?sia are many charming boutiques and antique stores. It is very near the women's outlet stores.

Though double room specified and booked, we got a romm with 3 beds but they kindly offered breakfast. I would recommend the place .

The rooms are very decent, spacious and clean for the price (around 55 euros a night). Location is fine. Not very central but a short walk/bus ride to the heart of the rive gauche. Room was quiet, I was in rm 39 at the back. The staff were friendly enough. The only thing I can complain about is the exorbitant cost of wifi access -- if wifi was free, the hotel would be close to perfect at that price. There is free wifi 500 metres away at McDonalds though.

Polite staff, not too much interaction between us. Room was nice, minor problems with lid of WC not staying upright, lack of soap dish and towel hangers in the otherwise nice, clean bathroom.

the hotel charged 140 ? in advance, but insisted on charging the full price. the credit card organisation had to interfere. We?ll never go there again!!!
