Courtyard by Marriott Paris Porte de Versailles

The hotel is fairly new, just outside of the Périférique, easily reached with metro line 12. Spacious room, big bed.

The Courtyard has gotten everything right. Loved the modern yet cosy design of the common areas and the room. It's not a large hotel but it is packed with all the right conveniences for every traveler. Strong WiFi, nice bar and restaurant and comfortable lounge area. There are plenty of surrounding amenities. With Carrefour just next door, a wide selection of Italian, Japanese, Chinese, Lebanese and French restaurants, pharmacies, boulangeries and even a boucherie all within 5-7 minutes walk. Whoever designed the room has thought of everything for the comfort of the guest. The furnishings are of top quality material. Everything is in the right place with aesthetically pleasing custom made metal door locks, solid chairs that don't creak when sat on, a luxurious king sized bed and perfect cosy lighting including a vanity light on the bathroom mirror. Even counted that there are 10 power sockets plus several USB points - a great ratio for this sized room. The icing on the cake is the lovely view of the Rue Ernest from the ceiling to floor window. The full carpet flooring and sound-proofed windows were totally effective in cutting out noise whether externally or internally within rooms. Having said all this, what made the Courtyard complete are its employees. The management must have succeeded in keeping their employees happy because every single one of them, from the chambermaids to the service and receptionists are always willing to help with a smile, patiently explaining the surrounding amenities, professional in their attitude and they deliver efficiently. You will be greeted with a bonjour by everyone you encounter from the moment you walk into the hotel all the way to your room. A special shout-out to Tracé, Taufiki and Pierre (hope the names are correct) who went beyond the extra mile in providing assistance. Tracé spent more than half an hour on the phone to help with a delivery that never materialised.

Excellent across the board. I've been participating on events on Porte de Versailles for years, and the opening of this new courtyard just made my life so much better. Location, service, comfort, clean. The bar by the reception is amazing! Will definitively stay again.

David, at the reception, was very friendly during check-in. We also got an upgrade and got a room on higher floor. The room was clean. The bed was comfortable and we had a good night's sleep after a lot of walking in Paris during the day. The metro station is pretty close. Also, there is a stretch of good restaurants in Boulevard Victor, just 700-800 m away. There is a reasonably priced supermarket next door. We forgot to reserve a parking spot up-front, but we got a place anyway in their own parking garage. I would like to also thank the Indian person who met us every morning in the cafeteria (I am so sorry I forgot his name). He made our breakfast experience very pleasant.

Excellent staff, nice decor, good location for transport & restaurants & supermarket
