Hotel ibis Nord Sarcelles (Sarcelles, France)

Reviewers had plenty of praise for the customer service, saying they encountered friendly, welcoming and helpful personnel. Guests also liked the simple but affordable, tasty and filling breakfast buffet in the mornings.

Despite being in a residential area in the northern outskirts of Paris, many guests felt this hotel's location was convenient as they could easily walk to Garges-Sarcelles RER station for line D trains to the city centre. Furthermore, trams to Saint-Denis stopped outside for quick and easy access to the Stade de France and further Paris transport connections. Drivers liked the free parking and being within striking distance of attractions, shopping and sightseeing in northern Paris plus Charles de Gaulle Airport. Another bonus was the nearby shopping mall and proximity of dining options.

The practical, clean and comfortable rooms went down well with most travellers, especially as the low-cost room rates were often favourable compared to prices in central Paris.

Some critics who felt uncomfortably warm or cold claimed they struggled to regulate the temperature in their rooms at times.

Although most guests found the accommodation to be well-cleaned, there were occasional claims of cleanliness issues like bathrooms that could have been more thoroughly cleaned, mould and stained bedding. Some critics also felt the rooms had seen better days and would benefit from further modernization to tackle maintenance issues like dated decor and tired-looking furniture.

Unpleasant smoky odours were detected in some parts of the premises and light sleepers sometimes blamed insufficient soundproofing for enabling them to hear noise from neighbouring corridors and rooms. Some reviewers were also bothered by aircraft noise at times.
