Extremely Disappointing and Overpriced
I recently stayed at Hôtel Mistral in Paris, and I must say it was one of the most disappointing hotel experiences I’ve ever had. The price is completely unjustified for the quality of service and facilities provided. I left feeling cheated and frustrated, and I strongly advise others to think twice before booking here.
Wi-Fi: A Scandalous Failure
First and foremost, the Wi-Fi simply did not work during my entire stay. In 2025, reliable internet access is a basic expectation, especially when you’re paying a premium price. The fact that I was charged for a service that wasn’t provided is unacceptable. I felt misled and ripped off—if the hotel can’t deliver on such a fundamental amenity, they shouldn’t advertise it.
Paper-Thin Walls and Zero Privacy
The acoustics in the rooms are appalling. I could hear every conversation, door slam, and even the TV from the neighboring rooms as if they were in my own space. Needless to say, I didn’t get a wink of sleep thanks to the noise. For the price I paid, I expected at least a minimum level of comfort and privacy, but instead, I felt like I was sleeping in a dormitory.
Breakfast: A Sad Joke
The breakfast was another letdown. No hot options—just stale pastries, cold cuts, and a pathetic excuse for coffee. And don’t even get me started on the ...nonexistent scrambled eggs. It’s almost as if the staff has given up entirely on providing a decent meal. For a city like Paris, where culinary standards are high, this was embarrassing.
Lazy Staff and Rude Service
The attitude of the staff was the final straw. Instead of being helpful or apologetic about the issues, they were arrogant, dismissive, and downright rude. It’s clear that the management has rested on its laurels, assuming that the hotel’s location alone justifies the lack of effort. Well, it doesn’t.
Fake Reviews?
Looking at the overwhelmingly positive reviews on Google, I can’t help but wonder if they’re written by the staff themselves. My experience was nothing short of terrible, and I find it hard to believe that so many guests could have had a genuinely good stay here.
Final Verdict: Avoid at All Costs
