Hotel Stella - Paris 7th Arr
 

Has anyone stayed here - or walked past and taken note of what it looks like? Would appreciate any comments.

Thanks

Sorry - its in the 6th Arr. I was reading a post about a hotel in the 7th and my fingers did not catch up with my brain quick enough.

We stayed there 2 nights in 2005. It was OK, but I am in no hurry to go back. We got the room with he piano-(you probably read about this in Trip Advisor?). It was huge, but very tatty. Exposed beams- 16th century ambiance. Maybe a bit on the creepy side. The place is right above the Restaurant Cremerie Polidor on Ave Monsieur le Prince .

oh wait- the Hotel Stella I am talking about is not in the 7th. I think it was in the 5th or 6th. There may be 2 of them (?)

My goodness that name brings up memories. I stayed a few months in a Hotel Stella in Paris the mid-80s. It was a total dive with no stars, somewhere in the 5th or maybe the 6th....I remember that the owner/manager parked his motorcycle in the foyer....can this be the same place??

It is in the 6th. How creeepy? Its so cheap and I am really on a budget.

I stayed at Hotel Tiquetonne 4 years ago and loved it, but wanted to stay on the left bank this time. Is there any similarity between the two?

I am meeting up with my daughter, who has been studying in Perugia but also doing the hostel thing as well, so swanky accomodation is not on her agenda.

Can you sleep with Stanley standing at the foot of the stairs screaming "Stella!"?

How creepy can you handle? Some people might think it's "charming". I kept thinking about how many bedclothes I could tie together if the place burned. The room was huge- actually you would call it a suite of sorts. The location is great. It just seemed pretty run down and a bit dirty. But cheap, oui.

That sounds like the hotel I spent all that time at. A true dump in every sense of the word. But that was so long ago...things must have improved by then...??

I'm not sure where the motorcycle went, though. But the furnishings were from sometime before the eighties- (1880's)
