It was fantastic from start to finish. The room was spotless and very comfortable, with excellent air conditioning that made a real difference. The shower was great—good pressure and plenty of hot water—and the breakfast was delicious, with a nice variety of fresh options. The staff were wonderful throughout, but a special shout-out to the person at the breakfast section, who was absolutely amazing: friendly, attentive and clearly took pride in making sure guests had a great start to the day. 1000% recommended! The location is perfect, right near Gare de Lyon station, which made getting around the city and to the train super easy. There are also plenty of cafés, bakeries and shops just steps away. This will always be my choice if I’m back in Paris.

Highly recommend this hotel! Literally half a block from the train and metro station. Very conveniently located. Many restaurants around. Very quiet in the room even though it is located within a busy main train station and street. The breakfast is also very good. We will return to this hotel again!

Nice informal downstairs lounge area and breakfast room. Most of the reception staff were friendly and helpful; one , however, had a real lack of social skills--not ideal for the job of welcoming and facilitating.

We had a very pleasant one-night stay at Palym Hotel. The hotel is in an excellent location near Gare de Lyon train station, which made it very convenient for traveling to other cities by train. The receptionist was warm and welcoming, kindly accommodating our early arrival and assisting with luggage storage before check-in. We also appreciated the helpful commuting recommendations provided during our stay. The room was clean and comfortable, and the overall atmosphere was cozy and convenient for travelers. Would definitely recommend this hotel for anyone staying near Gare de Lyon!

Compact rooms but very clean and quiet. A little hallway noise but this is extremely quiet for Paris. The two twins beds pushed together with separate bedding is a little backward, especially when they start separating throughout the night but a good choice for a single night. Exceptional location to Gare du Lyon.

Absolutely nothing to complain about for the price. Clean rooms, recently refurbished, right next to Gate Du Lyon for early morning trains. Yes they take a damage deposit, and you aren't allowed to remove your room key from the building. So a bit quirky, but that's France for you. Plenty of shops, cafés and a bakery steps away. All in all, pretty good place that I would return to.
