Lennon by Avalon Hotel Paris Gare du Nord

Lennon by Avalon Hotel Paris Gare du Nord is a great choice for a short stay in Paris. The location is fantastic—just a 3-minute walk from Gare du Nord, making it super convenient for Eurostar and train connections. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. The room wasn’t the largest, but it was perfectly adequate for a two-night stay—clean, comfortable, and well-equipped for a city break. If you’re looking for a well-located and friendly hotel near Gare du Nord, this is a solid option!

The location was great being a few minutes walk from the station with multiple restaurants & convenience stores nearby. The staff are helpful and allows us to keep our luggage after check-out. The check in process was smooth and filling up the questionnaire before arriving helps a bit. The room was overall clean, with a rather old fashioned hairdryer (but I like it).

Location ! Location ! Location ! Less than five minutes walk from Gare du Nord although if I am honest with you I prefer the smaller Barbes Rochechouart station, means you don't even have to bring up google maps on your phone. Just exit the station from the main exit turn right, walk to the end of the road and slight right again onto Boulevard de Magenta and #129 is almost in front of you across the road. I arrived on the first train from London so I was super early for check-in but the hotel was kind enough to keep my bags until later in the afternoon. When I returned, the friendly check-in was a breeze and they all speak wonderful English which is more than can be said for my poor French. I had room 32 on the third floor. It was adequate for just me and the shower was piping hot. The bed was super comfortable, in fact very comfortable and for the four nights I was there I had no complaints. Its very clean and they change the towels daily although I could have used the same one twice. The TV had mainly French channels but CNN was perfect for me. Although it is in a busy part of Paris, my room at the back was super quiet and I did not hear any traffic at all. No its not in romantic St Germain, the Marais or Rue de Rivoli but you will pay much more for a room that you will only sleep in. Day or night the area around Gare du Nord and the hotel was very very busy with people going about their business. No need to feel intimidated. I've been visiting Paris for almost 30 years and never been a victim of crime. Just use the same street smart that you would use at home and you'll be fine. Bars, restaurants and boulangeries abound day and night. The little blue shop behind the hotel on Rue de Dunkerque sells water and drinks half the price of local supermarkets. I can recommend L'Annexe 13 rue des Trois Frères, Paris 75018, at the foot of the Sacre Coeur for amazing meals but you have to book as they are mega popular.

Still need my deposit back
