Yooma Urban Lodge

We found this hotel on a hostel list of Paris, but it is much more time of a hotel than a hostel. The room was beautiful in its simple color concept, functional and cosy. The hotel has many special rooms which use is free of charge, just like a play room, extra showers/baby bath/microwave rooms and even a fitness room with a sauna. Towels included. The kids and I had a lot of fun down there! Also, the hotel is within walking distance of the Eiffel Tower, Paris Aquarium and a great Australian Café called O’Coffee, which was just perfect for us. Will come back!

We had a very pleasant stay at Yooma, family with 3 kids. Good base to visit Paris with parking space. The rooms hheb everything you need for a city trip, also special room for the baby, to warm milk and give him a wash. The people at the reception and bar where very helpfull. The (veggie) restaurant at the hotel is delicious, and I'm a meat eater ! We will be back...

Very reasonably priced hotel. The staff were very friendly. The room was small but very well designed, with beds you could slide to make a double or two singles, a flip-up table and plenty of USB charging points. It was clean and the beds were comfortable. We paid for the buffet breakfast both mornings and it was delicious.

Overall I cannot complain massively about Yooma. The hotel is a good price per night considering how close it is to the Eiffel Tower. The staff were extremely attentive and friendly helping with getting us to Disneyland as well as laying roses in my room prior to arrival which was a surprise for my other half. The room was mostly clean apart from some hairs found and the top shelf in need of a dust. It had everything we needed. The only bad thing I can really say that would put me off staying again is the smell. We had seen the reviews on here and almost cancelled and went elsewhere but decided to just brave it. It was awful. A sewer like smell that was constantly lingering it was really hard to not think about. It’s something that is clearly needing resolved as the reviews mentioning the smell have been going on for years. If you’re looking for a well priced average hotel focused on location and preferably have a nose clip, stay here!

Have just checked in to this hotel for 2x nights while in Paris. On arrival lobby and restaurant presents well. Checked in to our blue room to find many hairs - long, medium, very small all dark on every bed, on the doona, the sheets everywhere, dark stain, old wet stain with short hairs? and the room smelt strong of cat urine. Went to reception to speak to the gentleman whom gave us a new key for a different room. This room now orange in colour but the same otherwise had a foul mouldy wet socks odour and the beds - all 4 had the exact same issue, dark hairs long and short on top and under the bed sheets. By this stage we were very disgusted and physically unable to sleep at the hotel for obvious reasons. Back to reception we proceeded where the gentleman claims he is unable to do any refunds as this has to be done by the manager Hector the following day. He could not tell us whether we would be able to receive a full refund if we walked away this stage or not. By this stage it’s 2330 and we are rather exhausted as had just arrived from London so agreed to let the gentlemen show us a third room. This time we insisted the gentleman behind the counter escorted us to the third room to see for himself the standards of his hotel. This room was of a mustard yellow and that of a wheelchair accessible room with an off putting shower and no surprise more hair on the beds. DO NOT STAY HERE!
