Budget Hotels Left Bank
 
Loved the left bank hotel thread, and loved the Familia Hotel, great price, perfect location for us, but sadly booked for our June dates. Does anyone have a similar hotel to recommend? Rates in the 110-120 Euro range for a twin (double)? I would even take a more dated hotel for less, but wireless internet is important. How available is wireless in Paris these days? haven't been in a decade when it was hard to come by.

We are staying at the Hotel Bonaparte, 61 Rue Bonaparte, in the 6th arr. in July. (It's near Luxembourg Gardens.) This will be our first trip, so can't tell you what it's like from first-hand experience, but I do know the Bonaparte is recommended in the Fodor's guidebook, & recommended by travelers here. We have a double room with A/C & private bath. The hotel has an elevator. I think our price in U.S. dollars is about $174.00 per night. I forgot what it is in euros. I'm quite sure it has wireless internet.

We're staying at the Clement that appears to be in a good location.

If I remember correctly we're paying a bit more to have an inside room.

Haven't been there yet so don't know other than the good comments.

I love Hotel du Suez. they have wireless internet (free) and serve a great cup of coffee with their Euro 6 breakfast-served in your room at no extra charge. They're on Blvd Saint Michel but I've never heard any sound from the street. There is no a/c though. This is a very plain Jane 2 star hotel but it's clean, there's an elevator, the staff is very helpful and the location is perfect if you like to take the RER from CDG. Again, no a/c.

Read up on Hotel Diana - the price is in your range, has A/C and good reviews. (have not personally stayed there).
Another one, Hotel des Trois Colleges... Both in the Latin Quarter...

Hotel Cluny-Sorbonne, a two-star on Rue Victor Cousin near La Sorbonne, might suit: great central location for getting anywhere in Paris, a bit shabby but inexpensive and with free wifi. We had the cheapest room, it was a very tight squeeze for two adults, so I'd go for one of the mid-priced rooms if I had it to do over.
