Montparnasse: Hôtel Edgar Quinet

A very small single room in this hotel used to cost 60 Euros in the Low Season, 75 Euros in the High Season and 90 Euros in the Very High Season, also known as “Salon”, which means that something big is going on at Paris Expo, the fairgrounds at Porte de Versailles.

Unfortunately I was there during the Very High Season at the beginning of May, during the Foire de Paris (fifth photo). One of the hotel-booking websites even warned me about this and suggested I try some different dates, but this was not an option since I only had one free week in the entire spring semester.

So I paid the 90 Euros per night, since the other hotels in the south of Paris were even more expensive. I’m sure I could have found a cheaper room at the north end of Paris, in the 10th, 18th or 19th arrondissements, but I have stayed there quite often and wanted to try a different part of Paris this time.

Aside from the inflated price and the small size of the room, I was quite satisfied. The people at reception were very nice, the WiFi connection worked fine and the room had a shower, a tiny wash basin and even a hair dryer.

Breakfast was not included, in fact the hotel doesn’t even have a breakfast room, but they have an arrangement with two nearby cafés allowing hotel guests to have breakfast there at slightly reduced prices.

What I really liked was the location. The hotel is in Montparnasse (a district I had never stayed in before) and is right around the corner from the Rue de la Gaîté, a street which is only three blocks long but has six theaters.

Also there is a large Vélib’ station (14001) directly in front of the hotel and another one (14101) in the next block, so I was always able to find a bike when I need one and always found an attachment point when I came back at night.

Edgar Quinet (1803–1875) was a French author, historian and professor. Like Victor Hugo, he was a fierce opponent of Louis Napoléon, later known as Napoléon III. Both Hugo and Quinet went into exile when Louis Napoléon seized power in 1851 and did not return to France until after his downfall in 1870.

Hotel Delos Vaugirard: nice and cozy by Vaugirard

This is a cozy nice hotel with good service in a nice lively area at night, walking distance to nice sights like Tour Eiffel,Invalides, ecole militaire, Unesco, etc. The street is quiet and the service is excellent.

The hotel is a bit older, and the rooms very small but for a couple it is a perfect way to see belle Paris. Part of the inter hotel chain in France, that I used often.

Unique Quality: great location, cozy ,quiet, elevators, and nice breakfast buffet, the views can be the top of the Tour Eiffel

Paris Address: Rue De Rosiers

In a nutshell I would definitely recommend using Paris Address and staying at 19 Rue De Rosiers - we loved it!
http://www.parisaddress.com/paris-apartment-rental/apartment/ROSIERS

Unique Quality: Firstly the positives: We were met by a very pleasant and helpful young man named Carlos at the agreed time. The location of the apartment is great, right in the heart of Le Marais. Having spent 10 days exploring Paris on foot I can honestly say this is THE best location. The bed is extremely comfortable and the heating is efficient and easy to manage. There is plenty of storage space, an iron, ironing board, hoover and washer/drier. The coffee maker provides a good espresso to enjoy with pastries and treats bought from the abundance of patisseries right on the doorstep. The oven/stove top is sufficient for making snacks and breakfast, but I wouldn't expect it to cope with much more than that. The shower/bathroom is spacious enough and there is plenty of hot water; it is cosy and warm; and towel supply, lighting and storage space is good. Wifi is very good, there is a telephone which offers free local calls which is good for booking restaurant. It is close to St Paul's metro and is surrounded by shops!
Now the negatives: the seating in the living area is uncomfortable; we often find this to be the case with rental apartments which is a shame as it is not conducive with relaxing after a hard day shopping/sight seeing. The lighting in the bedroom is poor, which makes it difficult to 'check yourself out' when getting dressed. The staircase leading up to the apartment is very old and beautiful, but care needs to be taken when ascending and descending so that you don't end up on your backside!

18 rue de la Reynie: pied à terre

For my February 13 visit, I took the bold step of booking an apartment rather than a hotel.

I felt that for a 4 night stay, a bit of space and privacy would be a good thing.

It worked out almost perfect:-
- only 5-10 minutes walk from the RER at Les Halles, so easy transit from Charles de Gaulle airport;
- clean, warm and comfortable;
- private & secure;
- wifi, cooking & laundry facilities;
- plenty shops around for food & drinks;
- lots of restaurants in the area (close to Le Marais);
- walking distance to the river and Notre Dame etc;

The place had a spacious livingroom and bedroom, plus a bathroom, shower room and kitchenette. It was 5th floor, but had a lift. Friendly and helpful couple as landlords.

It can sleep 4 - a sofa bed in the livingroom, but perfect for a couple.

It was no more expensive than a good 3 star hotel.

I booked it through AirBnB.

Unique Quality: See above.

It made a good weekend special.

Villa Fenelon: Nice Area

This Hotel located in the Opera area, closed to everywhere, and just few minutes to metro.
Even the room not so big, but clean and the staff so friendly and helpful. They have 2 building that separated by a small garden. The problem just the stairs to the up floor, it's small and will be difficult to bring several and big suitcase. The price is more cheaper than the hotels around here, and breakfast included.

Hotel Douglas: Hotel Douglas

I stayed in Hotel Douglas for two nights and I really liked the hotel. It's far away from the centre, because it is located in the suburb Puteaux, near La Défense. But that location was no problem for me at all, because with the perfect public transportation in Paris you can get anywhere in no-time.

The welcome in the hotel was a bit of a problem because the parking spot I reserved was not available because of an error in the system. But they gave me a good alternative that was in fact even cheaper.

The room was spotless like you don't see it often in Paris. A nice, modern interior with a nice but slightly hard bed and a perfect bathroom. And...most of the rooms even have (indirect) view of the Eiffel Tower in the distance.

The breakfast in the morning was good and for a low budget hotel like this one the breakfast was pretty complete.

The staff is very friendly and all of the people at the reception speak good English.

My Hotel in France, Montmartre: Neighborhood Hotel in Montmartre

The Paris hotel "My Hotel in France, Montmartre." offers an ideal location for walks to the Funiculaire at Basilique de Sacre-Coeur and to the Moulin Rouge and Pigalle neighborhoods.
We arrived via the Abbesses Metro station which is within two blocks of the hotel. (Note: Take the Metro station elevator if you arrive via Abbesses, since the platform is deep underground and the stairs are long and steep.)
Once on the surface at the small park, we felt right at home in the neighborhood ambiance of Rue de Abbesses (Street) which offered a two block walk to the hotel. This Montmartre neighborhood is authentic Paris and makes the hotel a super value.
We walked the neighborhoods, visiting outdoor cafes, bread shops, fruit shops, great wine shops, and we even found a laundromat on a side street near the hotel.
The hotel starts your day with a Continental breakfast of coffee and croissants which are included in the room rate as is the box lunch the hotel provides for your day of sightseeing.
This hotel is a great value but like many small hotels in Paris, offers no elevator. Book a lower floor (six floors) if you have trouble with stairs and be prepared for smallish rooms such as you will find in the older Paris hotels.
The room was spotlessly clean and filled our needs to the extent that after we realized what a gem we had found in this hotel, we tried to book additional days but the hotel was booked solid for a week. We would definitely visit "My Hotel In Paris" again because of its fair price and its great location in a true neighborhood of Paris.
The only downside was that the WiFi, which is included, produced a weak signal during the peak period between 5 pm and 11 pm. The lobby offers a WiFi computer with a stronger signal but we found good internet service at the park next to the Abbesses Metro Station which we used to plan daily activities.

Unique Quality: Neighborhood ambiance of Rue de Abbesses in Montmartre is authentic Paris
of outdoor cafes, bread shops, fruit shops, and great wine shops.

Hôtel de France Quartier Latin: Clean, pleasant hotel in the Latin Quarter

We were looking for an inexpensive, clean, hotel with free wifi that was in the Latin Quarter and near the Rue Mouffetard Market and the Gobelins Tapestry Museum. I did a search on http://www.booking.com and found Hôtel de France Quartier Latin with good reviews. Double rooms start at 75 euros but it depends on how long you stay and which season it is. It is very reasonable for the location.

Our flight landed at 8:30 AM so even with going through Customs and getting into Paris, we knew we'd be too early for check-in so I contacted the hotel and asked if we could store our luggage there while we did some sightseeing. They were cheerfully waiting for us, took our luggage and told us to enjoy our sightseeing. We did!

Unique Quality: The room was clean and comfortable. We stayed three days. The staff (and we met most of them) were very helpful and had lots of good suggestions. I think the most outstanding thing to me was the number of electrical outlets in the room. (We spent a later stay in Paris in a hotel with no electrical outlets. We had to unplug the fan to charge batteries.) In Hôtel de France Quartier Latin I could recharge phone, camera batteries and log into wifi all at the same time and still have outlets unused. I was impressed.

We had a view over Rue Monge, a fun, busy Paris street. There was air conditioning but we didn't need it as there were two windows in the room.

The hotel is two blocks from the Rue Mouffetard Market and an easy walk to the Gobelins Tapestry Factory and in the opposite direction to the Arenas de Lutece. It's a good location for visiitng the southern end of the Latin Quarter and we took advantage of it.

The price below is per person and the hotel charges per room. Check the web site for rates.
