The Novotel Paris La Défense Nanterre is shiny new, having opened its doors just in April 2025 (we visited at the end of May). As you would expect, everything in the public spaces, the room, and the bathroom was classy, modern, good quality, and felt almost untouched, with no signs of wear. We stayed in a Family Studio that was particularly spacious and well-equipped (double bed, double sofa bed, dining table with chairs, mini bar/Nespresso machine/water kettle, and a fully-equiped kitchen with a cooking stove, a microwave oven, a second refrigerator, and plenty of dishes, glasses, cups, utensils, cooking pots etc. The bathroom was stocked with good-quality Rituals Karma cosmetics, and the toilet was separated. Soundproofing proved highly efficient, despite our room facing the road in front of the hotel. Location in Nanterre is obviously not "central Paris", but reaching the downtown was both easy and quick: A 5-minute walk to the "Nanterre Prefecture" RER-A (regional train) station, and from there a direct train line to the Arc de Triomphe (10 minutes) or Les Halles/Chatelet (another 5 minutes), with a new train passing every 4-5 minutes. In terms of services, the hotel offered an all-day restaurant and bar with various seating areas inside and a few bar stools outside, and an adequate gym with brand-new Technogym fitness equipment. The hotel will soon also feature an indoor pool, which was not yet ready during our stay. Service from the reception staff was efficient (and they actively asked for our feedback to iron out any teething issues in their new hotel), and daily cleaning of the room was OK. Overall, the hotel offered us an excellent stay in Paris –classy, brand new and well connected to all downtown attractions (not a 5* luxury establishment for hoteling, nor centrally located, but you know that before booking).
