I had a decent stay at the hotel, which was affordable and conveniently located near the metro and various attractions. While my room was comfortable and clean, I did have some issues with the service, including missed room cleaning and a noisy atmosphere at times. Overall, it was a fair value for the price, but it lacked in certain areas that might affect a return visit.

I found Grand Hotel Voltaire to be a wonderful budget option in Paris, with clean rooms and a friendly atmosphere. The location is fantastic, only a short walk from both bars and the Bastille area. However, keep in mind that there are no elevators, and the rooms can be a bit small. Overall, it offers great value for money in a bustling part of the city.

The hotel is located on a lively boulevard with nearby metro access, surrounded by shops and cafes, but it’s definitely a budget option.

Customer service was okay at first, but they lost my reservation and charged me twice, which has led to ongoing frustration in getting a refund.

I had a lovely stay at the Grand Hotel Voltaire, which is conveniently located near the Metro and several eateries. The staff, particularly the owner Nasou, were incredibly helpful and added a nice touch to the experience. Although the rooms are a bit outdated, they were comfortable enough for a good night's sleep. However, it's worth noting there’s no elevator, which might be a challenge for some. Overall, for the price I paid, it felt like great value for money.
