The room itself was quite dated, but its a neat hotel with a lot of history in a good area. The bathrooms were recently redone and very nice, and while the listing mentions no elevator, an original-to-the-building lift was great to get our bags to and from the room. It's definitely quite a walk from any transit, but there is a great selection of restaurants, bakeries and cafés nearby.
Great little boutique hotel tucked away far enough from the noise but also close enough to said noise. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend
Paris was unfortunately having a heatwave when we visited. With no AC, the nights on the 5th floor were really hot. The hotel did provide a large fan that helped tremendously. We loved the history and location of this hotel.
I loved this clean and modern hotel. Very cozy and away from the noise of the city. I would recommend this hotel more for adults given the decor and the elevator was super fun to ride in. I would definitely rebook!
Really enjoyed my stay at this historic hotel where Louis Armstrong once lived. I loved the glam decor with black woodwork, photos of models, feathered lamps and red walls...Ooh la la! Walking distance from Montmartre, bars and restaurants. Historic elevator is very cool but it holds one person or one suitcase. Plan to use the stairs and enjoy the unique atmosphere of this place!
Very close to station which made it very easy to get around. Staff were very kind and helpful - we weren’t going to the airport till later and they let us keep our bags there while we went sight seeing. There was very little lighting on the stairs which made it quite hard to see. Rooms were very clean. Overall excellent hotel in an excellent location.

Liked the quirkiness of the decor, however the predominant use if the Adult magazine 'Lui' throughout the property made me think if it was a 'family-friendly' hotel after all !
The night staff was super amazing who brought the cake exactly at midnight as requested for my wife's birthday. Really appreciate. However, overall I found their staff to be unfriendly, rude at sometimes and needed sine training in customer service for sure.
Lilly in reception was awesome and helped us.
The property is old and the lift is only 1ft x 3ft but I like stairs. The rooms are spacious, TV did not work but every thing was clean and comfortable. We had ipads and WIFI worked fine.
NOT - the lighting in the room is not great so bring a torch.
Alba opera hotel is a small boutique hotel with a beautiful Parisian decor and very vintage looking.
Super cool lobby with fun wall decors and the tiniest elevator. Adorable!! i booked a room for one traveler( female) my room was super tiny but the cutest!! I’m very picky snd always travel with my own pillowcase and towels but no need, everything is very neat and clean. The pillow was very soft that’s my only complaint, Other than that everything else was wonderful! Also, thank you to the young lady at the reception desk in the morning both on 1/4 and 1/5, very friendly, sweet and knowledgeable. Thank you for everything, I absolutely enjoyed my stay at your hotel :)

Clean but closer to 1 Star Service Unfortunately
After looking at the hotels.com pictures and booking the 3 star hotel based on her friends experience 10+ years ago, my wife was disappointed in many of the aspects of this hotel experience. Booking an executive room you expect a certainly level of standard and although clean and area itself nice, the room was closer to 1 star with no wardrobe or desk and 2 very small beds. A nice view from balcony and very clean but just not comfortable or the standard we would expect for the price paid. No wardrobe just a rail to hand clothes and the bathroom door would not close so period features are fine but they still need to work. The Hotels.com description mentioned a kettle but when asked at reception they were very rudely told we dont do that. Asked for additional pillows and also a rude NO answered and it was very hot in the room and surprise - NO to fans available as well. If you want clean and a nice area as well as 1 star service for 3 star price then this may be for you but definitely disappointing trip for not only my wife but her friends memories from 10+ years ago.
We absolutely loved our stay at the Alba Opera Hotel. It is the most beautiful place we stayed and we found it very comfortable and welcoming. The staff were very friendly , patient and helpful. It was our last 5 days before leaving Paris and Europe so we were tired, a couple of us not feeling well, and sad! But this hotel was the perfect end to a fabulous journey and we appreciated so much the lovely coffee and croissants in the charming dining room. Beautiful atmosphere. The neighborhood has loads of great places to enjoy. Highly recommend!
Old hotel, avoid particularly in summer as there is no air conditioning in the rooms. Tiny elevator, fits only one person and one piece of luggage. Pros: good room size and location.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The room was very spacious. Friendly staff. Convenient location, very walkable, lots of dining options. Highly recommend this hotel.
