The property was overall very nice, not the most clean / updated ever but good enough. All of the staff was extremely helpful. The area around the hotel has plenty of restaurants and easy access to the metro.

A basic hotel that definitely provides good value for money. Clean, and very well air-conditioned. Pretty good bed too. Convenient (Metro and Carrefour City). Decent choices of French cafes. Stayed during last week of Paris 2024 Olympics.

Clean, comfortable & convenient
Basic, but clean, comfortable and convenient. Situated in the Bastille district with great local cafes and shops just around the corner. Two metro lines nearby to easily whisk you to probably all the places you need to get to and see in Paris. Recommended 👍

This was our third stay at the Color Design Hotel and every time has been as perfect as the last. The staff is always thoughtful and courteous. The rooms are small, but very comfortable. The price is well below what you could easily spend in Paris. The neighborhood is absolutely outstanding with the local farmers market a few blocks away. Cafés, bakeries, restaurants and nightlife everywhere right outside the front door!

The Staff was very kind and and were prompt in servicing room while I was gone. Very very quiet. However the facility looks like it hasnt been properly kept up with for years by owners which shows in things being stained, broken, and not at all like the photos they have that I believe are very very old and from back when they were a premium hotel. None of the draw in the "color" is present in the rooms now with lights and artistic appeal gone due to burnt out lights or filters they had before. Again solid experience with the food and people but owners need to refresh this place.

Hotel was clean and tidy. The room was promoted as a twin room, but it was a large double bed, luckily it was not too much of a problem.
The room safe was not working and also it was NOT fixed to the wall - so it was of no use.
The lift was very small (it only has capacity for 3 adults), so if you have very large luggage, it could be a problem if your room is on the 2nd or 3rd floor.
There is a small restaurant that does breakfast only, but this is not a problem as there are plenty of restaurants very close to the hotel and are open until very late.
The staff were helpful and always willing to help and advise on any questions you have.

The hotel is okay for a two star but this is definetely not three stars. Truly baffling was the fact the bathroom door cannot physically close and they knew this when they installed it. It literally is stopped by the sink...
The other major maintence issues were the fact the AC wasn't working (luckily wasn't too hot the days we were there) and shower drain was backed up so it was incredibly slow.
Also oddly there was no do not disturb sign so even though we told the front desk we did not want any room cleaning we still got our door knocked on every morning.
Walls are also paper thin.
Some staff were friendly others seemed a bit standoffish.
Investment needs to be made to the hotel for the prices.

A decent hotel to stay in for a couple of nights, a good area that was close by to metro & train stations which made getting around Paris a lot easier! There was a few things with the room I did not like there was light fixture loose in the ceiling and a few spotlights missing bulbs. The hairdryer that was provided in the bathroom did not work. The stairs were very narrow and the lift did not work at times, which wasn’t great being on the top floor having to walk up or down all the flights of stairs. Staff were pleasant and welcoming the entire stay.
