The person who wrote about the prostitutes, thieves and beggars in the neighborhood was exactly right. His review sounds genuine, as opposed to people who gave this hellhole an above average rating. We just got back from a weekend in Paris where the hotel we had booked had an emergency flooding situation and re-housed us in the Regina. It was... more

stayed here for one night for a business trip - paid €66 - a very good deal. yes, the elevator still does not work, but they carried my luggage up the 4 flights of stairs. i found the reception staff to be very friendly and helpful. my room was small-ish, but clean and the bed was comfortable. bath was small,... more

I booked EuroRail passage from London to Paris through Hospitality Lines. As part of the service, Hospitality Lines selected a 3* or better hotel for us. We were not allowed to know the name of the hotel until after we paid for all - Hospitality Lines "selected" the Regina Opera for us. Let me start by saying that Hospitality is... more

Good location, near Bonne Novelle Boulevard Metro Station. The street (Rue de Mazagan) where the hotel is situated is not very clean and is a little ''ill-looking''... Nice Breakfeast. Small Bedrooms. Small Bathrooms. The General Look of the room was not the better. The elevator didn't work during our stay (5 days). The bedrooms were very clean. I think that... more

I read all the trip advisor reviews for this hotel before I went and found them really useful. The hotel was very clean and the staff were really helpful and friendly. The metro is at the end of the road and we were able to go all over Paris during our stay. As lots of reviewers said, the Rue Mazagran... more

We stayed at this hotel in August 2005 - we arrived late at night after being dropped off many streets away by a very unhelpful taxi driver and had to walk down dark, dubious looking streets so our first impression of the location was not great to say the least! However the following morning we discovered that there was a... more

Good Points: The staff all spoke very good English, were helpful and friendly at all times. The hotel is just 2 minutes walk from 2 metro stations. You are close to all the main attractions of Paris, including the Grevin Wax Museum which is a MUST for all ages (5 mins walk from hotel). The Hard Rock Cafe is next... more

Location was excellent,just a stone's throw away from the Buone Noevelle subway stop. The neighborhood was great, giving you a "living in Paris lifestyle" while on vacation:a lot of fruit stalls with sweet luscious cheap cherries, supermarts to buy your food supply while on the road, bakeshop with very delicious pastries, and Chinese restaurants just across the hotel with cheap... more

Room's carpet and bedspreads were dirty and smelly. Bath/shower tiles had mold deposits. No view. Could hear every sound from neighboring rooms. Very questionable neighborhood - urine smell, loitering men, homeless person. However, air conditioning worked quite well & room was bigger than expected. Size was not too helpful because lack of furnishings meant things had to go on the... more
