Only a two star but one of my favorites in the 6th, great location:

Only 2 stars ? I agree it is a nice one and well located.

People who only worry about the stars of a hotel are the same ones who think that the more you pay for a restaurant meal, the better it is.

StCirq Sep 20th, 2017 12:32 PM

People who rely on hotel stars don't understand the star rating system in France, I think.

I have been staying in hotels in Paris for well over 35 years and have never paid anything close to $300 a night; $150 is a lot for me. But maybe I'm a lot less picky than the OP.

Did WOINPARIS no longer have an account? I was trying to narrow down search by looking at his threads, unfortunately it says the user is not active.

He is active - it is one and the same and Whathello who keeps changing his screen name for some reason. Under old names has given really great Paris advice as he works in Paris a lot though is a Belgian (but don't hold that against him!)

I found one woinParis hotel thread:

I think location would be the better topic here - rather than the amount of money and "stars" to be spent.

All you have to do is Google "The 10 Best Hotels in Paris" and you'll find what you're looking for.

PARISWAT is WoinParis is Whathello. He switches to a new name every now and then for whatever reason. He is a veritable Paris hotel encyclopedia as he stays in the city several nights during the week from his home in Belgium and does an on line search for the best last minute hotel deal for those nights. He is amazing as he Velos through Paris in all kinds of weather, knows the city like the back of his hand. His recommendations are completely reliable.

Whathello: trust its okay to "out" you.

Whathello Sep 21st, 2017 10:01 AM

Perfectly ok. I changed my name because I didn't want to post too much under one name and thus leave too big a trail.

But Woinparis is dead and now so is Whathello.

Pariswat is still alive for the moment and I may use it in the future but I'm out for now. My last post is on Forum help. Who knows when/ifever Fodors switches to the new platform I may send PM's but right now, as I said, I prefer to read a book than be on a travel forum - whatever travel forum.

I'm always game for a GTG with such nice people as you Travel or FF, or StCirq or Ker or or etc but I've been more than enough here and have said all I had to say and more.

Have fun.

gomiki Sep 21st, 2017 10:31 AM

Whathello, wait, wait. Want to meet up again in OCT?

gomiki Sep 21st, 2017 10:35 AM

Oh, no! He is gone.

Traviata Sep 21st, 2017 10:54 AM

Whathello...we are packing and will be there soon.......you are needed to help plan our next GTG......!!!

suze Sep 21st, 2017 11:12 AM

Whathello quit the forum. Took down their account completely :-(



<I would like to know if 7th and 8th arrondissements are quite central?>

A map will shows this better than I can explain but the numbering goes in a spiral (like a snail) so any of the lower numbers are reasonably central to city center (the 1st).

PalenQ Sep 21st, 2017 11:24 AM

WhatGood-bye?

Will be missed. Sorely missed.

kerouac Sep 21st, 2017 11:40 AM

Not by those of us who see him regularly. ;-)

suze Sep 21st, 2017 12:50 PM

Then give him our best, kerouac.

travelchat Sep 21st, 2017 02:49 PM

Whathello:
Stop pulling our chain! We enjoy hearing from you. You know you can't stay away!!!
Eve
P.S. The million dollar question is who will you come back as next?
:)

StCirq Sep 22nd, 2017 11:48 AM

`He takes breaks occasionally and then comes back. Some of us are in touch with him regularly and will know what`s happening.

We had a really nice day and evening here in the Dordogne with yestravel and her husband and my best friend and a neighbor. Just lovely. Nice when Fodorites connect in person during their travels.

kerouac Sep 22nd, 2017 12:48 PM

I had lunch with some delightful Anyporters from South Africa today and have another lunch planned next week with an Anyporter from England, so I just don't have time for meals with most Fodorites, although I hope to see nukesafe again on his next visit to Paris (then again, he is an Anyporter as well).

gomiki Sep 22nd, 2017 03:17 PM

I am a lurking Anyporter. Does that count?
