Staff could not find my booking and the hostel was full so they moved me to St Christopher's canal.

THe bar/disco atnight downstairs creates a lot of noise if you like to sleep at 22:00 when you had along day exlporing the city.

I would suggest better isolation with the bar/hostel for the room. even it was said . then think about that not all people go party hard everyday ;-).

Other then that was nice!

The place is really near from Gare du Nord station , good place for transportantion to anywhere, but the neighborhood looks terrible in the afternoon and night. Breakfast good! Also,there is a bar/restaurant next to the hostel : good food , not expensive. The room (10beds no private bathroom) was clean , there are free secure boxes for luggage under the bed, also lockers for 5 euros/day. The bathroom was not so clean, but was ok.

Great hostel with friendly staff and a great location for those looking to move on from Paris via Gard du Nord. Overall would definitely recommend, but be warned that for longer stays the area is not the safest.

It s very clean and new. The toilet and shower (hot and good pressure) were clean and were enough for all of us until ALL of the toilets had to be fixed and we had to use the disable toilet ( 2 on every floor with attached shower). The mattress was comfortable and I really liked the curtain. The location and the free breakfast left a lot to be desired though. The location is not only far, but also uninteresting. The immediate area is pretty, but area around the metro and the road between are not at all. There are shops on the main road, but they are not what you would want to look at. We tried some bread from one of the shop on our first night and it was terrible. There were three of us, so walking back at night wasnt really too bad, but I would never walk there alone at night ever. The breakfas

it is a very new hostel, the facility is really good. but since its capacity is so huge, it's kind of hard to connect with other backpackers. and its free breakfast only provides boutigatte as bread, i had to order something else for breakfast then. btw, the wifi is very volatile as well.

It is safe, people who would share the dorm with you would be nice. Bring your lock with you. Breakfast is a joke. The canal and the area around are nice but not so close to the centre

St Christopher's was my first hostel stay ever, and it was a perfect choice! The pople are lovely and so helpful and the location is pretty good being a 2 minute walk from the supermarket and the metro. Great place to stay, highly reccommended!

I stayed here with my two friends and we were very impressed with this hostel. It was clean, the staff was super nice and overall it felt like a comfortable, safe place to stay.

I would definitely recommend this hostel for anyone staying in Paris. It is kind of far from the main attractions but it's not so bad with the metro system.

Nice clean place, lots of young people but also seniors are welcome. bed is good , prices at Belushi cafe are not cheap. staff is international, friendly and speaks english. location a bit far from center but station like stalinggrad and riquet very close by.

all in all 9 out 10 for this place.

just one thing you got to pay 4 euros for a lock to close the locker

St christophers is AMAZING! Its not right in the center of the city, but it is really close to two lines of metro, and there is ALWAYS a great party here. Helpful staff and extremely safe and super clean! Privacy curtains around your bed and a storage locker keeps this as my top hostel experience ever!

Not only are the visitors vibrant, interesting, and friendly, but the staff ensures you will have a safe, clean, and positive visit. I was astounded by the positive attitude and hard work of each staff member and this was well reflected by the appearance and vibe of the hostel. I will definitely stay here again.

The hostel was honestly the best I have stayed at in Europe. It is not right next to the major attractions, but is 5 minutes from the metro. Its a great place to meet people, feel safe, and have linen that has actually been washed. The lockers in the room are great too.

Great staff, great atmosphere, great people. A bit out of the way if you are sightseeing, but was perfect as a stop-over for Gare du Nord. You need your own lock for the lockers under the beds, which are very creaky and difficult to get into (and noisy and night) but this is my only real complaint. Would stay again!

Very safe (lockable storage areas for each bed in the rooms), comfortable beds with sheets changed each day, and wireless internet access. The location is the only downside, being located pretty far away from the heart of Paris.

Very nice place to stay, but quite far from the city center comparing to other cities I have stayed in. Apart from that it is great, and idea with curtains on each bed is just brilliant. Rooms are very big, never stayed in hostel with that huge rooms. I recommend it to every one.
