Guest Tips & Highlights
The location and the breakfast buffet were my two unbeatable aspects for citizenM Gare de Lyon. Being so close to the Gare de Lyon gave access to the RER and Métro to get you around Paris. The breakfast buffet is truly exceptional, fresh baked goods, unlimited coffee, other beverage options, hot selection etc .. I've had citizenM's breakfast buffet in London and I love the consistency of their "model" . I was also pleasantly surprised with the view.....while a building covered a portion of it I still loved that I could see the Eiffel Tower and the Seine 💙
Everything. The view of the river and Eiffel Tower were fabulous. The employees were great. The room was great. Great shower. Great location near two train/metro stations. Great breakfast. Need I go on?

Weather Tips

For summer, pack breathable fabrics and sun protection; in winter prioritize a warm coat, scarf, and closed shoes. Check forecasts before day trips (especially for Versailles or Giverny).
Understanding in Paris Prices
Hotel prices in Paris fluctuate with three main factors: calendar seasonality (summer and major holidays), large events (Paris Fashion Week, Roland-Garros, trade fairs like Paris Motor Show, major concerts), and location (1st–8th arrondissements and areas near landmarks and major train stations command premiums). High season runs broadly from late May through September and around the Christmas/New Year period; expect the highest nightly rates in June–August and during event weeks. Value windows are January–mid-March and late October–November (excluding school holidays), when rates and airfare drop and you can find deals—though weekends may still be pricier. Book 2–4 months ahead for normal travel; for Fashion Week, major events, or summer weekends, book 4–6+ months ahead. Short-notice travel (within 2 weeks) often faces limited availability and surcharges. Weekday vs weekend: business hotels can be pricier Mon–Thu while leisure areas push prices up on weekends. Apartment rentals may be cheaper for longer stays but check for cleaning and city taxes.
