“This alluring 12-room boutique hotel on the banks of Canal St-Martin was the first to bring iPads, filtered water and a warm minimalist design to this once-edgy part of town.”
“Le Citizen features a minimalist-chic decor, high-tech touches like loaner iPads, and a cool east-Paris vibe. The focus is urban and eco-friendly, and the spirit reflects the neighborhood, young, hip, friendly, and plugged-in.”

Convenient for short stays
Loved the location and the staff! The bed was also super comfy. We didn’t have a toothpaste but the staff was kind enough to provide us after we asked. We only stayed one night and it was decent; would be hard with a suitcase as the room was quite small. Breakfast was simple but delicious. Would stay here again for a short trip! Thanks
Wifi wasn’t the most reliable

Will stay there again during the next Paris visit.
Location was very Parisian and a proper experience of people, not at all touristy.
Breakfast was spartan, but aren't all French breakfasts? Staff were friendly and helpful.

Lovely experience in the 10th Arr
The location was amazing - VERY convenient to cafes and shops around the 10th arr.
STaff was awesome.
Early check in.
Facilities are also very great. Quiet room, only street noise which was fine.
There isn't anything I didn't like.

Pleasurable stay along Canal Saint-Martin.
Staff was wonderful!
I frequently stay in Paris one or two nights as i transit thru Europe. This is my second trip staying in the 10th arrondissement and i think it is my favorite for restaurants and pleasurable walking along the canal.
Nothing really. I can always find small irregular cramped rooms in Paris but that is what lends charm.

great well run little hotel in interesting area by the canal
Great hosts, very helpful and good recommendation for dinner nearby. Liked the addition of interesting books in the room and a feeling of being in a cultural area.Good location for Gare de L'Est across the park. Simple breakfast.
They're planning to improve the communal area/entrance downstairs which will be good.

A small, quirky boutique hotel in a fabulous location in the 10th. Our suite room was spacious by Paris standards and wa
Fantastic location overlooking the canal with huge choice of restaurants, cafes and bars in the area.
Very comfortable bed and good to be able to open windows. Staff very pleasant and helpful.
Although we were in a suite of 35m it was an unusual layout and not great access to either side of the bed. There could have been some more options for breakfast.

Convenient location.
The staff were very helpful. Room had alameda titles.
Reception is very pokey and the room extremely small which is what I expected. We were only there overnight. The staff made up for the small room. I fortunately there were road works right outside the hotel which made it very noisy during the day.

Very good
Very convenient location and just 2 stops by Metro from the Eurostar station in Paris.
There are many restaurants and cafes around the hotel.
Our room was facing the very busy road. It wasn’t easy to sleep well because of the noise by walking people until late night.

Not bad but a bit costly for the size
Bed was so comfortable and the location was close to many train stations!
Room was so small. AC wouldn’t temp adjust so it was always so cold or too hot if it was off

4 nights in Paris beautiful hotel on the canal. Excellent customer service
Very comfortable large room. Lift access. King size bed. 2 sitting chairs. Bar fridge. Nice bathroom shower over the bath. Room view over the canal. Windows open for fresh air and also double glazed for noise reduction and temperature control. Good block out curtains for sleeping. Walking distance to international train station- Gare du Nord. And subway access to sightseeing attractions. Breakfast included was good. Tea/coffee French bread and jam or croissant, granola and yoghurt. Also can have a wine or beer at the end of your day in the bar which over looks the canal. Many cafes, restaurants and patisserie to choose from. Laundromat close by. Extremely helpful staff with directions and information about trains. I cannot thank or praise them enough for helping us and sharing their local knowledge.
Nothing to dislike
