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.”

Very good

The hotel really has personality: the decor, the vibe, the roof terrace. Breakfast is excellent and had the best scrambled eggs in long time

air conditioned was not working - told reception, couldn't fix it (but it wasn't a big deal)

Fabulous

The staff was very friendly. Realy great. The bathroom could be a bit bigger. Breakfast was lovely. Good variety.

Our stay was overall realy great but the thing that could be better was the the food that is served on the different places. On the roof terras we could not order a seperate dish and only the bqq menu with a starter, main dish and desert, while we only wanted a main dish. This was also an issue on the terras on the ground floor. Only the severall dishes were possible to order outside and not the pizza, while the pizza was made behind the glass where we were sitting. It was nbot the problem of the staff they stayed positive all the time, but aparantly policy. If that sort of things change if will be even more great.

Good, but not great

Restaurant and pizzeria were both great! Rooms stylish and comfortable.

Rooftop bar was closed and locked. No toiletries provided in the bathroom, which seemed pretty mean!

We loved coming back to the hotel after a day of sightseeing in Paris.

We loved the hotel as soon as we arrived. Cool decor and great atmosphere. Rooms have everything you need, very comfortable beds. The restaurant is lovely with a great menu & delicious cocktails. The live DJ made it a fun experience. The breakfast buffet looked amazing, although we had a “small” breakfast which was delicious. There is also a pizza oven restaurant serving delicious pizza. Also recommend the Tiramisu! Great hotel, good value and suited our need’s perfectly.

Location was not in “central” Paris area but easy to access and was not a problem for us. Bus, Metro and Uber taxi.

Enjoyable - much more than to expect for a ** hotel.

Restaurant, food quality and staff.

Elevators, lack of storage space and partly poor lighting.

Pleasant

Personal attention to my requests.

Very small room, if you like "king-size-bed-room" (room with size like bed) it is your choice. Popular restourant inside, but too hard to get a table for dinner.

Very good

the Friendly staff and the good vibe of the hotel.

the location was that good, but we were already aware for that. not the best location when you don’t have too much time in Paris and when you want to explore the city center, although 30min is the duration of the trip from Opera Area to the hotel.

Comfy but confusing.

Fabulously comfy bed and tasty food.

Wrong room priorities for us. A microwave but no kettle. A mini kitchen sink but no glasses. Free adult movies but no mirrors and very poor lighting throughout the bedroom.
