Great hostel...beds could be lubed as my three bunkmates stopped...when the creaking got too loud. I guess you could say its good to stay here and find some romance that can be consummated at the hostel! Oh, and all the facility's were great and clean; also the staff was sincerely friendly...

While i didn't care too much for my experience in Paris, I found this hostel to be very nice. The facilities were very clean and convenient and my room had a gorgeous view of the canals. The staff was very accommodating and courteous. On the other hand, I did not find the atmosphere of the bar/restaurant area French at all. In fact, the food reminded me of chain restaurant food back home and I heard significantly more English than French. Spend the nights here, but find culture elsewhere. :)

Gare du nord is a little misleading. I don't recommend walking from the station. Take the metro to Crimee especially if you have heavy bags!

The place wasn't that clean. The bathroom was really dirty.

Hi there, I'm sorry you felt that way about the bathrooms, we do clean them 4 times a day but I guess we will have to improve the effort going into this. Thank you very much for the comment we are always striving to improve and these kind of comments drive us even more! Kind regards, St Christopher's Inn Paris Canal

Kinda far, but close to 2 metro stops and the rooms were very spacious. Beds are bad, hurt my back. Cool to have a restaurant with 25% off though.

Hello, I'm sorry you didn't have a good bed. If we could find out the bed in question we could do something about this. Most people tend to find our beds rather comfortable. The 25% is especially for you guys to help with your expenses here in Paris. Hopefully you'll be back for a visit. Kind regards, St Christopher's Inn Paris Canal

Great party hostel. Young crowd, but there are some nice bars right across the street from the hostel as well.

Well I stayed at St Christopher's in Amsterdam and that was awesome, pretty coo,l I thought it was going to be the same in Paris, but... the location is not that good, it is in a zone not so nice and far away, I guess that's the main reason they are going to open a new one, who knows... The building is fine, my private room was fine but the shared bathrooms smell bad and the bar is really expensive I guess that's because it's Paris.

Hey, Unfortunately the prices in Paris are just, we are trying very hard to reduce prices for the hostel goers. It's something we are trying to sort out for you guys. We'll try very hard to get rid of that smell in the showers, it's not always there so it's probably a case of something needing unblocking! We're opening a new one because we want to entertain more people in Paris. Give people what they want! And that's usually more St Christopher's Fun and good sleeping. Kind regards

Reading lights. There were no bunk beds in my room. Nice shower. Good burgers available and decent price with the discount from your stay. There was a microwave and they will lend cutlery. Wifi is fairly poor. Easily to accessible to some good metro lines and neat area. Good distance from the centre for Paris. There is a pickup for the free walking your of Paris. Nice bar and restaurant. Basic breakfast. Staff helpful and fun. Bonus of free towels

They could improve the cleanliness of the bathrooms and I will suggest to encourage people to use the metro station Crimée until there is daylight; otherwise, use Lumiére and walk through the Canal, we felt it was safer at night taking that way.

Hey there, We will take the comments regarding the cleanliness of the bathrooms on board, this is something we are aiming to do. So thank you for reiterating the point. I understand the feeling regarding the walk to crimee because of the street lights. But in general one a large street such as this they are safe places in the evenings. Thank you for your thoughts, and hopefully we'll see you again soon. Kind regards, St Christopher's Inn Paris Canal
