Review of Hôtel Gérando 3*

Let's assume, for which you come to Paris — if for comfort, feel free to take the hotel (or go to Turkey/Egypt:) if you are going to spend all day in the town and excursions, you can choose Gérando 2*! The main and undoubted advantage of the hotel is its location, the hotel is practically next to Montmartre, in two minutes walk from the Gare du Nord. Paris is very convenient, because without a subway difficult to do, especially if you are walking around the city by yourself. By the way, I recommend to buy a seven-day travel Cartе Orange, is very beneficial effect on all types of public transport. The hotel is located on a quiet street rue Gérando, near the small restaurants rather affordable, in one of them I dined at the last day, very tasty! If you exit the hotel to the left, then close across the road will bakery (Boulangeriе), there is very tasty cakes! To place Pigalle where is the Moulin Rouge, walk for 10 minutes. At night the hotel is closed, but if you come late enough to knock at the door and you open it:) A bit in the area of depressing to a large number of Arabs, but in principle, if not pay attention to them, they brazenly stick will not be tested on personal experience:) the more The representatives of different Nations fully in all of Paris, that quickly. Staff is very kind, well, to me one of the receptionist even allowed to access the Internet from your computer behind the counter. Upon arrival I got a bottle of wine (and I thought that I would pay for it it is necessary to see the amazement on his face porter, when I asked him how much to pay over The area — in General, in Paris in all public places, including hotels, Smoking is prohibited, but me (I lived in a single room), quietly allowed to smoke in the room, and I enjoyed. The room is very small, bed, wardrobe and a chair, a modest shower, a Hairdryer, TV. Because I only spent the night, which was fine with me. Bed every day dimmed, the towels changed and cleaned every day. 't like about the room, that no place was a little mould, clean and the room was on the first floor and the view from the window was no. But actually there are only two rooms on the first floor, and there are rooms with balconies. Nothing was missing! Over Breakfast I can't say anything because I was in the hotel, no Breakfast, but I think that all European breakfasts are the same — coffee with a croissant, jam, butter. I was more interesting to go and have a Cup of coffee in any street cafe, enjoying the sights of Paris:) Cup of coffee in Paris — 2 Euro, keep in mind that if you sit on the street and not in the room, coffee is more expensive. Yes, not far from the hotel there is a shop Tati, there's a lot of things you can buy clothes, accessories, cosmetics and so, the prices are reasonable (for Paris). So, I generally liked the advantages of location, polite staff, cons — small and very simple rooms, mould on the walls. Don'T expect to much from двухзвездночных hotels in Paris! I would recommend this hotel for those tourists that do not appreciate comfort and found another country and come to the hotel only to sleep. Another bit of advice for Paris — learn at least a couple of phrases in French, it's not hard:) And start your conversation with the locals in French, cute smile. When they realise that you don't know this language, many are moving to English, I even one Mademoiselle caught that knows Russian language. Excursions — when we drove from the airport, our leader has offered many excursions, which seemed to me quite expensive. For example, a pedestrian! tour of Montmartre — 30 euros, I love everywhere to go alone, so armed with a map of Paris! Without knowledge of the language for the week never lost. Free map can be taken in the same hotel. Metro different from ours, but when you start to ride it, everything is clear. When you come into the metro you should watch the direction of movement of a train, i. E. Endpoints of the line, it depends on where you go. Trains are in the middle of the platform, not on the sides. Exit Sortie. In the metro, when you pass through the turnstile, you can snuggle up to you get for free, I did not resist:) If you don't use travel and buy single tickets for travel and SAVE them until you get outside! I once got caught checking on when I went to go to the street, and the girl threw. Well, was spare tickets! Taxi — certainly more expensive compared to public transport, payment by the meter. Two times I went by taxi to the fear that now the taxi driver will circles around the city cut to more happened, but honestly took 20 minutes drive paid 15 euros. Catch a taxi — out on the side of the road and vote, when you see a car taxi. Food — you can eat in McDonalds somewhere Euro 6, dinner with wine will be released approximately 20 euros. The dish in the restaurant is very large, I took any salad or something hot. The famous French onion soup in the different restaurants of different (I did not like), frog legs are hard to find. It will be difficult for those who do not know the language, because the menu according to the French, but sometimes in English, in Russian and do not wait! :) But you can find online the names of dishes and products with translations from French and go to a restaurant with this шпаргалкой! At least once in the restaurant to go is there such an atmosphere of French life! When you go to the restaurant, to the table you accompanies administrator/waiter, but you can ask for a table, if you don't like. Tip I left up to 5 euros. In the centre, especially on the island of shite, many street stalls with different rolls, sandwiches and other food is very delicious and satisfying, I had a lunch option. You can also log in bakeries (boulangerie), which sells delicious pies and pizza, cut slices. On the street you can have, do not hesitate to there all really loved:) Over the price it is hard to say shopping I almost didn't go. Cheapest Souvenirs somehow was on the Rue de Rivoli, near the Louvre Museum, there is a roofed gallery. When you buy three or five Souvenirs, it is cheaper than to buy one. Was in a perfume shop — no less than us! Yes, even got into a cosmetics shop on the Champs Elysees, there special consultants can you put make-up, but is it necessary to buy something. I for маккиях had to buy two products from Chanel, bought the cheapest two lipstick 40 Euro, but have done a make-up that I did not regret! Professionals! In terms of crime Paris — a quiet city, I was not afraid to walk in the evening on the streets, purse kept in the front pocket of his jeans, a passport to leave the hotel room, and with them just in case bore him a copy of. Internet-cafe in Paris very little. Another would be advised to go to the flea market of Saint Ouen, it consists of several markets, I liked Вернезон (99, rue des Rosiers), there you can find unusual things, stuff for the house, Antiques. And do not forget to bargain! Well, that's probably all, I wish you a nice trip to Paris! If you have questions, can I write asya001@mail. Ru.
