Does anyone have any experience staying in Paris at either the Comfort
Hotel Gare Du Nord near the Metro or the Tulip Inn Quai De Seine Hotel
near the Stalingrad Metro station? If not, what about the Comfort
Hotel Paris Montmartre? They fall within a narrow price range and
seem to be fairly similar in room amenities, but I am not sure about
access, cleanliness, safety, etc. Thanks for any replies!

Help, please! I did not receive any feedback about these specific
hotels, but can anyone offer any advice about staying in the areas
around these hotels? Thanks again for any replies!

It depends what you want to do, really. Stalingrad is just one tube
station away from Gare du Nord so basically you are in the same area.
Though, Gare du Nord is a train station so you'll have the opportunity
to catch trains, busn RER and metro, not to mention more restaurants
and life. Stalingrad has only bus and metro which is okay.

May be a better idea would be to take the Gare du Nord hotel if you
plan to go to downtown Paris all the time : you could walk with a
decent map from Gare du Nord to downtown Paris through Rue Lafayette
very easy to catch Opera and the department stores.

On the other hand, Stalingrad is close from La Villette Parc, La
Geode, a cinema (MK2 quai de Seine) and le Canal de l'Ourcq.

If you have some more questions, feel free to ask. Never been to any
of these hotels.
