A renovated 19th century building with ivory façade and iron balcony railings, the Best Western Nouvel Orleans is situated in the Montparnasse area, 250 metres from the famous Catacombs of Paris. The 46 air-conditioned guestrooms overlook the narrow rue Sophie Germain, hotel courtyard or Avenue du General Leclerc. All have contemporary decor, with furniture by French design house Cinna Roset, and come with desks and chairs, dial-up Internet connections (surcharge), minibars, and satellite television.
A winding staircase leads from the lobby down to a breakfast room with polished parquet floors and colourful modern art, where the daily menu includes eggs and homemade pastries. Complimentary newspapers are to be found in the lobby where multilingual staff can assist with ticket bookings and provide sightseeing advice. The Montparnasse district is home to the historic brasseries of the Lost Generation around Montparnasse Cemetery, and the discount markets of Rue d'Alesia. Guests can take a short metro ride to the Catacombs of Paris, 250 metres away, where skeletons of millions of Parisians have been carefully stacked through the centuries. Guests can also visit the lively Latin Quarter, three kilometres away; the gothic Notre Dame is five kilometres from the hotel. Charles de Gaulle Airport is 50 kilometres from the hotel, a drive of around 45 minutes.
