Getting there
Good for walkers
Places to stay are graded on a 0-100 scale. The higher the grade, the easier it is for travellers to find restaurants and things to do within walking distance.
The accommodation is away from the main tourist resorts. Staff were great. Room clean and overall felt comfortable during my stay. No problems at all with WIFI. If you have any physical limitations - the shower is over the bath. Bring your own shampoo and conditioner as there is only pink coloured liquid soap available which I would have preferred not to have used. Breakfast is available and on a Sunday morning in Noumea this was a great welcome! I choose not to have the full breakfast which came to AUD$41.00 instead ordering separately and this was a much better option. Location of hotel excellent for strolling around the town and going to the local markets. I would stay again for a few nights as the staff were attentive and overall, it was a comfortable stay.

Stayed four nights. Basic hotel could not book elsewhere as Noumea pretty busy over Easter.
Couple of issues Booking a return transfer to airport which is like 45km away they had me being picked up at 1315 for a 1415 international flight
I tried booking direct much cheaper 2500 not 3600 the hotel charges 44% more
Le Village close by good for food and beverage Cafe next door good for breakfast
Rooms serviced in good time each day
Room safe did not work informed them on day one Nothing done I just gave up
English French used a lot to justify nothing being done

I always used to come to this hotel, but there I came across a room where the cleaning was poor. Presence of dust on the furniture, and in the toilet vents, is missing a sliding door in the shower. Unless the room is under renovation but even the small fridge even has on the floor and unplug. I had trouble sleeping, mattress not too thick and bed base too low. On the other hand welcome and nice breakfast, at the top.

I was dissappointed. There was a TV and fridge in the room. The fridge did not work and the reception to the TV was not even passable. The receptionist at the front counter sits behind a large wall and is difficult to see and allows her to be unfriendly. No welcoming. No restaurant in the hotel except for breakfast, There is no bar in the hotel. it is a private place next door that charges the earth.! Would I stay there again No. There was no information about the services of the hotel or anything around the hotel. The room was clean and serviced well. The location is very good

Average place for average price, You get what You pay. We had a famiky room for 4. It was spacious and clean. Furniture and bathroom little outdates and would like a refit. We asked for an early check in but the room was available at 13:00 hours… nkt really an early check in. The have a spacious and confortable living room for waiting, with an office which is good if You need to do some work.

I was a little disappointed overall. I expected more from a big chain & the photos certainly seem to be better than the actual rooms. Very basic & in a central location but I would advise anybody going to Noumea to stay at either Anse Vata or Baie de Citron as there is so much more to do & it feels so uch safer at night. I chose this hotel because it is right in the city centre & I went there for work but unfortunately, unlike most City centres, there is very little open after dark regarding restaurants so it was a bit daunting walking round deserted streets looking for somewhere to eat. The room itself was basic but large, it had tiny fridge that had broken shelves was under the wardrobe & it had the standard tea & coffee supplies & adequate TV & a good safe . It was kept very clean every day & the in bath shower was nice & powerful & hot but could really do with some none slip mats . I asked one night for a corkscrew to open a bottle of wine & the hotel didn't possess one, let alone wine glasses. Next time I will definitely travel the extra 5 or 10 minutes & stay nearer the beach

Our one night stay here can only be described as the night from hell. We were in a room on the third floor and the noise, voices, yelling and banging coming from i don't know where was incessant and kept me up all night. It was very close maybe from a neighbouring building may be from the same building, it was hard to tell. The bed was like sleeping on a concrete slab and the pillows were not much better. To boil water you had to place the jug on the floor because the cord was too short to reach any of the other power points. The fridge was not even plugged in so bad luck if you wanted to keep anything cold. I would find somewhere else to stay - it is convenient to the ferry though.

Stayed a couple of nights prior to and after our wonderful Dream Yacht charter in Noumea. This is a very clean & comfortable hotel. Rooms were freshly painted, bathrooms worked well, good wifi, room safes, comfortable beds, etc.
Very close to the markets, marina and museum.

Noumea, by definition, is expensive. Bring gold or a mortgage. The Best Western Hotel Le Paris is one of the most affordable hotels in the city. Our room was clean, well air conditioned, firm but comfortable beds, and two English speaking TV channels in this French-speaking city. The bathroom was spotless, no bugs, no crawlies anywhere. The one thing about the room that we didn't like is that the refrigerator in the room didn't work and they made no attempt to fix it.
There is no swimming pool or exercise area.
The other downsides of the hotel is that it is in the centre of the business district which contains the port, not the beach. It is closest to the university, which is the reason we booked here. The view is laughable as the whole front of the hotel is a goldish-mesh that lets a bit of sunshine it, but restricts the view. Even without the mesh, there is really no view anyway except for the French Red Cross building across the street.
Many will book here rather than the Youth Hospice if they don't want to climb the Alps to get home every day. The Youth Hospice is up a long, long stair from downtown, that starts near the Hotel Le Paris. If you are not physically able, don't book the Youth Hospice because of the climb and because of the following . . .
Beware the weekends . . . downtown Noumea rolls up the streets in the evening and on Saturday, and on Sunday, there is nothing going on. If you want a bus, taxi or a restaurant in the downtown area on the weekend. Good luck. This area is a dead-spot on the weekend. If you don't mind walking a lot on the weekends then it is OK, but in the summer, when it is 32 degrees, prepare to sweat if that is you plan.
It is probably better to book in the tourist area near the beach on the south end of the peninsula. There are some affordable places there, so we hear.
