Hôtel Apollon Montparnasse

I stayed there 6 years ago. By my surprise the hotel was renovated since then, the facility was clean and upgraded. I love it!

Easy and cosy atmosphere, and fantastically friendly and helpful staff. Not a Ritz, but that’s a compliment, if you’re looking for a reasonably priced home-like hotel where everything is relaxed and not at all posh. The very warm welcome for exhausted travelers arriving late at night made us especially happy! Fridge in the room, A/C for warmer days, and a warming system for colder ones, beautiful, spacious, modern and functional bathroom (i.e. a shower with a non-UK-style joke of a tap, so you really get the right mix of cold and warm water when you need it) with a huge French-style window, comfortable bed, more than enough power outlets (for once in a hotel room!), delicious French breakfast, great area with nice bistros and small shops, short walk to Montparnasse station, and a Metro station just around the corner. What more could one possibly ask for? Definitely ten points out of ten in our scale!

first thing we noticed there were flies in the room! we spent times swapping them during our short stay thank good it was short. first off, the front staff man didn't have a friendly demeanor. no greetings/smile and felt welcome to this hotel. after all we are patronizing your hotel, why not give us a friendly welcome? so check out time same man in the front; we reported about the flies in the room. He just laughed i was confused from being arrogant when we checked in and now he just laughed about the flies in the room? he made a lame excuse oh because when its hot you know the flies comes around? huh? it's spring and it wasn't that hot it's cold! he was trying to fool us we just left. No apologize, no thank you. nothing. I will not recommend and come back to this hotel due to arrogancy and flies. i'll spend my hard earn money somewhere else! the man wears glasses and a little chubby.

Let us check in early something that we were grateful for because we were very tired after our transatlantic flight.

I was coming from the train station (montparnass) and departing from the train station the next day.. I needed a place that was close to the train and easy to drop my bags and hit the ground running. This was a seven minute walk from the train station, and they allowed me early check in to drop my bags. I think they would have kept the bags if they didn't have my room available. Definitely recommend. The room was quite small, and the bed seemed smaller than a double bed, but it was just me so not a problem. There is AC and good WiFi.
