I stayed for 2 nights at the Hotel Amiot, which is a 2 star hotel literally opposite Gare d'Lest, which means it has great transport links. It is also within a few minutes walking distance of Gare Du Nord station in case you arrive in Paris with the Eurostar. It is a budget hotel, so don't expect fridges or kettles in your room. I booked a room for 1 person, and had a spacious room on the second floor (the hotel has 6 floors) with a double bed, desk and chair, wardrobe including small safe, and TV. The bathroom was spacious with a bath tub shower, and you the hotel provided hand towels and bath towels, as well as soap and shower gel. You could open the windows in both rooms. The rooms were very clean, and were cleaned each day. The receptionist spoke English. The hotel has a small lift and a stair case as well. If you just need a space to sleep, this is perfect. The room rate on expedia was half of what I would have paid on the day, and the Ibis around the corner costs more than twice the money. I didn't use the breakfast option, so I can't comment on that. I would book this hotel again, because of the great location and value for money.
