Hotel in Paris
 
Has anyone stayed at the Hotel des 3 Colleges in Paris? I would appreciate comments or suggestions for another hotel. I will be alone and staying for 6 days in September.

Suggestions needed.

Hi Janyceh,
It may help to give your budget and any expectations (just a room, AC mandatory, view of Eiffel,etc..)

Michel

I am a 69yo women in good shape. A room under $150, lift would be nice, A/C not mandatory but nice (Paris can be hot in Sept, I know), close to a metro, also a chair in the room. Small room fine, but I do not like to live out of my suitcase.

Does this help. Do I want too much for the price? Help!

Hi

Stayed there several years ago. Very friendly staff. The rooms are very small but this seems to be par for the course in Paris. I understand the hotel had been closed for refurbishment for several months last year.

It is perfectly located within walking distance of most of the sights and is well positioned to access several metro stations.

Good restaurants, cafes and shops in the area. Would not hesitate to stay in this arrondisement again.

Yes I have stayed there. It is a nice hotel in the 5th. As most euro hotels the bathroom was very small but I would stay there again. Walk up the street towards the Pantheon and there is a great wine store Chez Nicolas. We actually stayed at the Excelsior 2 doors down and it was less expensive but a tad more run down. Email me if you have any questions.

Thanks all. It seems to be between the Bonaparte and the 3 Collèges. Decision time.
