Citizenm Paris Gare De Lyon

This a funky high tech hotel. The room is functional , there is s fridge and a safe ( smartly hidden under the bed) no frills with the sink in the room to maximize space. Is value for the money ( Our rate was 100 euro per night with no breakfast). However, it would be nice to have a kettle in the room.

Because the hallway are carpeted and the rooms are not, you can easily see the lint and dirt that you track into the room. Bed is high with one side against the window so it can be harder for older people to get on and off the bed.

Nice location with good restaurants and public transportation nearby. The windows are soundproof which is very nice in the center of Paris. Comfortable bed and fancy control of the room via iPad. Public areas with lounge, restaurant and Sky-bar er nicely decorated and comfortable. Which is also necessary since the rooms are basically just to sleep in due to the small size.

Do not pay extra for the 'Iconic view'. The windows at the corner of the hotel, where those rooms are located, are decorated with some artwork which look good from the outside. From inside it makes even a clear day looking grey and the view is grainy. The windows are also very small and you can only see the view when you are sitting upright in the bed. The rooms are very small and the bathroom with glass walls does not give much privacy when needed.

Nice modern hotel right next to Gare de Lyon. No kettle in the room so can't make your own hot drinks. Breakfast a bit pricey but overall v nice.
