"Le Patio Bastille is a wonderful hotel for many reasons. Its location is fantastic - so near tons of restaurants, the metro, and Place de la Nation. The hotel itself has spacious, clean, air conditioned rooms (ours had a queen bed in one area, and a bunkbed in a separate area, so lots of room to sleep) and offers a great buffet breakfast. It also has two beautiful courtyards that feel like secret gardens. Finally, the staff is incredibly warm, welcoming, and helpful. We can't say enough about our stay at this hotel and would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone traveling to Paris. Heads-up to families with kids: This is a great choice because of the room layouts and bed options available, as well as because of the breakfast."
