Standard Design Hotel

We stayed for 3 nights. The hotel looks nice, we had one of the few spacious rooms. The room was stylish interior is very minimalist. The first thing we encountered was that we had to hand in our key every time we left the hotel. We're unsure if the receptionist keeps the passport photos or something... but just naming the room number will get you the keys back. No questions asked. The first night I got sick and my partner went to get another blanket for me. However, the receptionist on duty this evening said there was nothing he could do. Also the room was terribly cold, he couldn't help with the heater and said we had to use the tiny electrical heater in the wardrobe to heat the room. The next afternoon my partner spoke to the receptionist again, nothing was possible. Luckily the area has pharmacies and supermarkets. Early in the morning the church right across the street starts toiling its bells. This is still "okay", the worst part is what we guessed is the wake up call guest can request. When they get the call everyone gets to enjoy the alarm, because you can hear EVERYTHING. The room might as well have no windows as well, cause it sounds like traffic is passing by right along your bed. The bed was made every day. The towels were changed. We didn't get any new soap over the course of our stay. On second day our cups were gone and no new ones were left. Also housekeeping starts cleaning long before the checkout time of 12:00. So there is this continues sense of being rushed. When booking, keep in mind there are no utilities for drinks. No water cooker, cups, nothing. We purchased some water at a supermarket in the street, rather then getting it at the reception for €2 per bottle. There is little space to store clothes. The shower and toilet were spacious, but the tiles on the floor are loose. The shower has some red fungus growing on the doors. The toilet was clean. For the rest the room was clean. The street is busy. Lots of establishments to eat and drinks till late at night. Keep in mind that the hotel is above a bar and people sit outside and talk loudly till deep in the night. You will hear them. The hotel offers breakfast for 12 euros. We didn't take this option. We also noticed a sign at the reception that a room would cost €300 per night, we booked online and it cost us less than half. Overall, not coming back.

I adore this little boutique style hotel which was perfectly situated . The room was spacious with a very comfortable king size bed ( slept like babies) the room was clean with a large double shower, 3 large windows gave the room plenty of light but offered thick curtains should you need them. Lovely location for eateries bistros and bars. Would stay here again 100%. Breakfast was available for €12. For the price of the room i feel it should be included however our stay was perfect

Stayed here on last day of trip in Paris. Neighborhood a bit far away from tourist area but nonetheless a very busy area with several things around. The hotel itself was very simple, but the bed was comfortable, and in our case we just needed a room to shower, store our things, and sleep so it worked for us. The gentleman that worked in the front desk was super nice and helpful! That made all the difference. I would recommend anyone to stay here if they are looking to venture out in Paris and sightsee for most of the day and need a place to sleep at night.

Hotel Standard Design is an excellent choice for tourists who are looking for a home base from which to explore Paris. ||||My partner and I spent a week at Hotel Standard Design during our stay in Paris, and what we appreciated most was the location of the hotel, though we were a little disappointed with the amenities. ||||The neighborhood is lively, with a great array of bars, restaurants, cafes, bakeries, and boutiques that reflect a more authentic Parisian atmosphere frequented by locals and not completely overrun by tourists. The hotel is also within walking distance of 3 different metro stations, so the rest of Paris is easily accessible. ||||As far as accommodations, the hotel offers minimal amenities. The room features included: bed, small closet, shower, WC, flat screen TV, floating desk, and side tables, safe. A few notes on our room in particular - many of the hangers in our closet were broken; the doors to the shower would not close securely, and water would flood the bathroom floor; the room did not have a refrigerator, which was an inconvenience when we wanted to buy groceries from the nearby market. ||||The staff was top-notch - very professional and respectful. They helped was book train tickets to our next destination, research fine-dining restaurants and make reservations, and answered our every question. ||||Overall, we we would stay again at Hotel Standard Design for the excellent location.

Very nice room and bathroom. Very good location too.The breakfast is very pleasant. The reception is helpful except when you have a problem. Shower issue and dirty towel upon arrival. Not even an apology. After the fix of the shower the cleaning was not so good. In general the cleaning of the room is not spotless. You expect at least perfectly clean room when you stay in a hotel.

We were in Paris to see a band at Cafe de la Danse and this hotel was perfect for our trip. It was minutes from the venue which was great and meant we didn’t even need to take coats out with us on a cold February evening! The bars and restaurants near by were lovely and there was a real buzz in the evening.|The hotel itself was clean, the shower was hot and it was very central for exploring Paris for the couple of days that we were there for.|The room was perfect for a couple of days, nice bed, clean, all the essentials.|A few reviews mention how welcoming the staff are at the hotel and we would definitely agree.|We would definitely use this hotel again if we were visiting Paris.

Let me start off by saying the good; nice room, friendly English speaking staff, good part of town close to metro, hop on, decent bathroom, cleaning staff were good, close to good food etc. Oh and 24 hour front desk staff.||||Now I booked my room with two basics required; WIFI, and air conditioning (AC), as my wife was pregnant and running hot. AC was not running, spoke to the staff who said they would check with management. Got back to me and said it wasn’t turned on yet, and that was the owners decision on when to turn it on. Fair enough, but it was my expectation of your hotel, it was very good, hot weather on my stay and we didn’t sleep well. It cost you a star! With good AC I would have left a 4 star.

The hotel is in a good location, only a few minutes from the Bastille and metro stations. It is close to many restaurants, bars and cafés. It can be quite noisy during the night. The rooms are quite small (most of Paris hotels are) but really comfortable. It was a good option considering location and price inside Paris. The staff was really nice. The only issue was that you can hear through the walls. You can easy hear other guests on the hallway or in their rooms. Also the renovation work on the hotel was really noisy, especially when they start at 8 AM.

I had a very pleasant stay here. The staff very very helpful when it turned out their booking system didn't have our details loaded on arrival. The hotel is clean and neat, and the room was cleaned every day. There is a really cool bar on the corner of Rues de Taillandiers where the hotel is and Roquette, which does breakfast in a perfect Parisain style, so we didn't have the more expensive 15 euro hotel breakfast, and there is also a Monop next a stone's throw on Roquette, so we ate well for less money. Free wi-fi, soaps, safe etc. I'd thoroughly recommend Standard Design!
