Hotel in 6th Arr. <125 euro
 
Hi,

We're looking for a hotel in the 6th Arr. that is (1) Charming/Nice, (2) centrally located, and (3) &lt;125 euros. A tall order, I know, but there must be something out there. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Hotel le Clement on the rue Clement across from the Marche St.Germain and a block south of Blvd. St. Germain. Happy Travels!

One of my girlfriends stayed this past September at the Hotel Bersoly's Saint Germain on 28 Rue de Lille. It's in your price range. She said it's a good old plain Jane kind of hotel with a fantastic location and a friendly, helpful staff (clean also). Tripadvisor gives it generally favorable reviews.

I haven't stayed at the Grand Hotel des Balcons in the 6e, see www.balcons.com, but walked by it: charming and on a quiet street. We were quoted E100 per night for a twin room. We ended up staying at the Hotel Saint-Jacques in the 5e, but next time I'd like to give the Balcons a try.

Hello,

Hotel du Fleurie is very nice and reasonable, less than 125 euros.

dln Nov 2nd, 2004 10:50 AM

The Fleurie is very pretty but the rates today hover closer to &euro;200 than &euro;100!

My favorite is Hotel du Lys; lots of charm, wonderful location, and only 110 for double, inc. continental breakfast. Bldg dates from 17th century, including a winding staircase (no elevator, if that's problem) that lends much character to the place. It's on a quiet street, yet only two minutes from lots of activity; either St. Michel or Odeon metro stops, both 3 min. away. In-room safe, cable tv, phone, pvt. bath.

Check it out at: www.hoteldulys.com


This place often lands on lists of best lower-priced hotels that have maintained the integrity of the original buildings in Paris.

The Hotel R&eacute;sidence Montparnasse is totally centrally located and under 125 euros....I found it nice...!!!Look at this hotel on www.residence-montparnasse.com...You will see if it is OK for you too!!!

A small, greatly centrally hotel that is not exremely fancy but I like staying there is the Welcome Hotel. http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Rev...EST375125.html

Nothing fancy, nothing special but great location. If you want a very western hotel, this is not it. Small bathrooms and rooms, but I will stay there again and again. Goolge it.....

Once again I recommend des Grandes Ecoles. It is in the 5th but certainly close to everything and the 6th. Ask for a room in the garden or other building. Some posters have criticized the main building.

grandmere Nov 3rd, 2004 09:23 AM

I found the Welcome HOtel to be very noisy, due to its location.

kasperdoggie Nov 3rd, 2004 09:54 AM

We have stayed in Hotel du Dragon, on rue du Dragon back in 2002. I believe the rate was 90 Euro at the time.

The hotel came recommended by the regulars on bonjourparis.com. It was very well located, fairly quiet, basic but pleasant and the staff was nice to us (we didn't require much assistance, though).

Here's the website for Hotel du Dragon:

Just on the edge of the 6th (technically in the 5th I believe) is the charming little hotel on a quiet side street. Right across from the Luxembourge Gardens, and on a metro stop, but within easy walk of all sights -- the price should be in your range. We've stayed here several times and love it.

TC, the prices on your referral are 135-145E, which exceeds the OP's budget.

TC Nov 4th, 2004 05:47 AM

TravelNut; That would be the &quot;Rack Rates&quot; posted. No one pays rack rate. Many things enfluence the price of a hotel -- the most important being season, which the OP did not mention. I felt the $135 Euro rack rate was close enough to his target for a look. If you don't, then YOU don't have to look at it.

Travelnut Nov 4th, 2004 06:30 AM

excuse me.

NJgal Nov 6th, 2004 05:36 PM

Thanks, all ... got a reservation at Hotel le Clement for the dates I want for under 125 euros ... now I can't wait for summer when we go! Thanks again.
