Novotel Paris Les Halles

Novotel Paris Les Halles has a private garden: tables, yellow and blue cushions and parasols among the plants.

It suits a family seeing Paris by Métro: walk out and Châtelet, served by RER A, B and D and Métro lines 1, 4, 7 and 14, is a minute away. The trade-off is that period Paris stays on the street; inside are modern chain rooms, some with an ink drawing across the wall above the bed.

Is it for you?

For two, book the Executive with a king bed, the only category that has one: 25 m², with a view of the city or the garden. For a few more square metres there is the 37 m² Junior Suite.

Worth knowing
The dog can come: the hotel accepts pets, and in an October review a guest travelling with theirs thanks the staff for the touches left in the room.

8 min readHow we write the guide

  1. The room with the view

    For a view, ask for a Junior Suite on the city side: two guests wrote about theirs in 2026, one in June looking over Les Halles to Sacré-Cœur, one in August with the towers of Notre-Dame and the Eiffel Tower’s antenna in sight.

  2. The nights after New Year

    New Year’s Eve comes at a price: €600 for the night of 31 December. Three nights later, on 3 January, a night for 2 is €243. If your dates are yours to choose, let the holidays pass.

  3. Breakfast on the terrace

    The buffet runs from 7 to 10am on weekdays and until 11am at weekends, sweet and savoury, with some gluten-free choices. In a review of 22 October a guest calls it a charming terrace for breakfast.

What Novotel Paris Les Halles is

Its private garden is Le Jardin Privé, an open-air bar among the plants that runs from breakfast to afternoon tea and has a cocktail list.

How we choose the hotels

The 5 things that matter, as guests tell them

What do Novotel Paris Les Halles’s guests say? They write it in their reviews, even those who only came for a drink or dinner: we read every one and tell the 5 things that matter, from the location to the bill.

  1. Location

    Nearly every guest who mentions it is happy with it. Almost everyone agrees on the location: cafés and boulangeries all round, and one guest walked all the way to the Eiffel Tower.

  2. Room

    6 in 10 guests who mention it are happy with it. The rooms are not all alike: guests who got a refurbished one find it new and roomy, others describe tired rooms, and in the heat of summer 2026 a broken air-conditioner came up again and again.

  3. Staff and service

    9 in 10 guests who mention it are happy with it. Staff and services are what guests mention most, nearly always with praise, often thanking someone by name; others describe queues at reception and requests that went unanswered.

  4. Breakfast

    8 in 10 guests who mention it are happy with it. Breakfast wins guests over with its choice and eggs cooked to order; other guests describe a crowded room and slow service.

  5. Price

    Those who mention the price mostly find it high for what they get, even when they love the location.

500 guests said so on Google, from 6 May 2026 to 27 October 2026. Google reviews with text from 28 October 2024 to 28 October 2026; up to the latest 500. The other hotels are the ones weighed for a stay in Paris: for each we read its latest 500 Google reviews with text, or all of them where there are fewer, as of 29 October 2026. The score is the average of what they say, from 0 if they speak of it very badly to 10 if they speak of it very well. Where only a few mention something, the score stays close to the guide’s average: a handful of voices does not make a reputation.
