Hotel Mama Shelter, Paris

109 Rue de Bagnolet, 75020 Paris, France (show on map)

Expert reviews

Fodors review:

“Mama Shelter has a fun and funky interior designed by Philippe Starck. Don’t expect an ounce of classical Parisian charm—the hotel is an experiment in quirky postmodern countercultural cool.”

Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Paris.

CNN review:

“The Mama Shelter is not central, but it’s convenient to the Metro, Père Lachaise cemetery is around the corner and, yes, that’s the Eiffel Tower you see in the distance. If you want ‘real’ best of Paris, this is it.”

Telegraph review:

“Escape the crowds at Mama Shelter’s outpost in the east of Paris, and make a saving while you’re at it. You’ll find quirky design, a noteworthy breakfast and rooftop bar, in addition to the main bar and restaurant space on the ground floor, which is a lively social spot come nightfall.”

Nice and pleasant.

Comfortable beds, nice decor and friendly staff.

Not many vegan options for breakfast... just bread and veggies. Also no kettle in the room was a bit unexpected.

Very good

Unique vibe.

The bathroom wasn't very clean and the rooms are so dark that it's hard to see how clean it is. Location was fine, but a little farther out than I initially thought. That's my fault though, not the hotels.

Fun hotel with easy access to the metro to explore Paris.

nice hotel with fun atmosphere

the breakfast was not ideal. more attention required by staff to ensure there are plates and bowls for the buffet. No water in the urn so the tea/coffee station was hectic.

Always a good idea.

Maintaining good quality over the years. Love the breakfast buffet, enjoy if you have time.

Missing some small touches like shampoo ea. also missing the possibility to use towels more than one time. The house keeping changes them everytime no matter if they are on a rack or not

A good alternative if there’s nothing else available closer to the centre.

Clean, quiet

At reception during check in we we told there was a rooftop which on day one wasn’t accessible because of a private party. On day two and three it was closed! The weather was beautiful: 25-28 degrees and sunny… But no access to the rooftop….

Missing a bit of personal attention

I ve been here very ofter over the last 10 years, and most of the aspects of the hotel have not changed and they keep it in good condition. Breakfast is very plentiful,fresh with a lot of choices. Beds and shower are great as always.

Missing the extra features in the room; no shampoo, no water cooker. Missing the possibility to opt out on new towels everyday to be a bit more environmental friendly. Even after all these years they still haven t noticed that I am a mrs and not a mr… no possibility to change this on my invoice?? Room prices have gone up 50% since corona but the hotel and facilities stayed the same?

Sort of creepy place with comforts

The breakfast options are really huge and what I've been able to taste had very good quality. The bed was very comfortable and the room with two windows + AC made it extremely easy to have always the perfect temperature in seconds.

It's dark even in places where it's not needed (e.g., the breakfast, close to the desk in the room). It's sort of creepy/unfinished: not really an happy place. When it is crowded it tends to be too noisy. The carpet in the room.

Mama Shelter stays true to their brand values. It's a brand and you feel it in every hotel. I went to Paris with my 2 children of 23 and 25 and they really liked the ambiance in the hotel. The hotel area is nice and we easily took the bus or tube to the center. I stay regurarly for business myself in a Mama Shelter and it's hotel where you have a very good price/quality for Paris. And yes the rooms are small but this is Paris. So that is normal. The rooms are always clean. Connecting to streaming services as Netflix (which is possible on the tv) did not work. But bon who watches tv when you are in Paris ;)

Pleasant

Mama Shelter hotel as a concept is fun! Staff were super friendly, interiors are funky, atmosphere is nice, and the breakfast was amazing.

Rooms are too tiny (as expected), room is too dim- poor lighting. & if I recall correctly there wasn't even basic shampoo.

Nice ambiance and vibes at Mama Shelter as it always is. I stay here regurarly when I go to Paris. Price/Quality always a good solution. Breakfast buffet is fresh and amazing. All is there from fruits, to english breakfast, to cheeses and cured meat. Fresh juices, coffee. All that you want. Rooms are basic but trendy design, just what you need nothing more nothing less.

The airco's in the rooms are not working properly. We had 2 medium mama shelter rooms.
