Just off Rue la Fayette, the Ibis Styles is a gentle 10 minute safe, south west stroll from Gare du Nord Eurostar station. Tucked down a small Parisian side street and just off being under a quaint little bridge that takes you up to Poissonniere Metro, you really are in an ideal area within 30 mins walk to the river and all of the usual tourist sites of Notre Dame, Pont Neuf along with the shopping centres, cafes and restaurants of Chatelet.
So yes, the rooms are small but comfortable and kept very clean. I guess it's a pretty newish renovation. They have fitted the toilet and half decent shower in the bottom corner along with a little table and seats on the way to the decent sized double bed. One could say it's a bit squashed but because they keep it so well and the staff are also pleasant, the size is easily forgiven.
Free wifi, a decent TV and a generous buffet breakfast is also included, so yes a very good all rounder.
