About

JO&JOE is a house open for all, a cool and caring social hub! For people travelling alone, in pairs or in group, we offer an ideal and appropriately priced shared or private accommodation in Paris - Gentilly. As well as serving the best burgers in town and awesome cocktails, we also have a self-serving beer tap system! Located right in front of the biggest Parisian campus, the JO&JOE Paris-Gentilly is ideally located with the B line RER train that will take you directly to the center of Paris in 20 minutes.

At JO&JOE people either come from the other side of the world or just live one block away. They gather to enjoy a fresh, simple and homemade cuisine as well as refreshing drinks and the 450 square meters garden. The stage welcomes artists every week and our events program brings travelers and locals together.

The Happy House is part of the experience at JO&JOE Paris - Gentilly: wich is a social space for inhouse guests only. You will find everything you need to heat up a snack or chill with your new friends.

Located between the Porte d'Orleans and the Porte de Gentilly, a 5-minutes walk from the Cite Internationale Universitaire of Paris and 10-minutes from the Charlety Stadium. JO&JOE is located next to the RER B line which is directly connected to the center of Paris (20 minutes) and to Roissy-Charles-de-Gaulle Airport (45 minutes). Orly Airport is only (35 minutes). The Tramway T3a is very close and will get you to the Paris Convention Center and Paris Expo Porte de Versailles where lots of events and congress take place every year (cars, design, fashion, farming, tatoo...).

The hostel was ok considering the price, the first room we were given unfortunately had bedbugs but when we informed the staff they were very helpful and moved us to a bedbug free room. The room itself was spacious and had an en-suite which was nice. Location was ok, about 30 minutes from the centre on the tram but again considering the price it wasn’t bad. Cleanliness needs improvement.

Pretty nice place overall. 2 minute walk to the metro which is nice and also very close to the Cité internationale universitaire de Paris which has a great park . The lobby floor is NOT cozy and kinda smells. Beds are fine but are basically on the ground so a little awkward and you can't sit up in the bottom bunk. All the sinks in the bathrooms and showers leak onto the ground when you use them.
