Any feedback available re Hotel Paris Gambetta?

I don’t know anything about the hotel, but I will say the location leaves something to be desired. Unless you’re getting an exceptionally good rate, I’d take a pass. I stay in the 11th, which is fairly far from the center of the city, but even I wouldn’t stay there.

It’s not far from a metro stop, (Gambetta) but the line that’s it’s on isn’t a very good one, and you’ll always have to change lines to get where you’re going.

Did you check reviews on Booking.com? Only people who have stayed at the property can leave a review on that site. It gets a "good" rating which is middle of the road, but you can peruse the reviews for yourself (sort by newest first so you get current input). You don't have to book using their service, just a good research tool.

And FWIW unless you have a specific reason for staying in that area, there are other offerings that may be much more convenient for sightseeing, etc.

I will say the location leaves something to be desired.

I completely disagree, and for good reason, I lived right across from the hotel for a few years. Avenue du Père Lachaise is very quiet, the neighborhood is super lively, very safe, and full of local shops (especially on Rue des Pyrénées). The subway is just a few steps away, and so is the entrance to the Père Lachaise Cemetery. It's one of the best places I've ever lived in Paris, and that was even before it got gentrified and trendy.

Just a few minutes' walk away is one of Paris's charming villages, "La Campagne à Paris" .

And if you stroll through the neighborhood, you can discover some hidden side streets with artists' studios and Art Deco houses.

JoLui, if I was to contemplate living in Paris, I'd strongly agree with you. It would be a really great place to live. But my reply was based on the assumption that the OP is visiting.

I'll stand on my initial response that it's not an optimum place for a tourist visit. It's difficult to get to the sites that the OP is naturally going to want to visit. Yes, it's near a Métro, but that line just goes more or less across the Right Bank, necessitating changing lines every time you take it.

HappyToBeHere, Charles never claimed he expected direct access by metro or bus to every single part of Paris, which is impossible anyway. And I'm quite sure he knows that the Hôtel Paris Gambetta isn't actually at the base of the Eiffel Tower.

You said that "the location leaves something to be desired," which is false, whether you live there for several years or only stay for 2 or 3 nights.

Taking Metro Line 3 at Place Gambetta puts you just minutes away from the center of Paris. The line runs straight through major transit hubs like République and Opéra. Getting to the city's main tourist attractions from there is just as efficient, if not more so, than staying in the 7th arrondissement.

Calling it "impractical" is a complete non-issue.

JoLui, we’re allowed to disagree. I meant no disrespect.

We stayed in an apartment near there for a month in 2003 -- during the great heat wave -- It is of course not central but it is on a metro line 3 which gets you into the center to transfer wherever you want to go. There is an enormous shopping center which includes at least one bakery and a big grocery store so convenient for picking up snacks and such and fast food. It is quite near Pere Lachaise which is undoubtedly a place you would want to visit. There are lot of very inexpensive hotels in the area and for someone on a budget a reasonable choice for a Paris visit. We found lots of nice little restaurants and delis and such.
