Girlspytravel,
Do you happen to know if Libertel-Canale St. Martin has a web site?
Was breakfast included in the price?
Thanks for any info that will help!

It does indeed-here you go:

However, check the discount booking websites for rate comparison purposes, you might get a better deal.

Breakfast was included in my price, but I don't think it is with everyone's booking-it depends on whom you book with-I think I booked with hotels.com, if I remember correctly-as it was a last-minute, day before booking, since I decided at the last-minute to stay a few days longer, try hotels and/or orbitz. I think you should be able to get a double for around US90.00 night in low season, and around US100.00 night, high season.

I'm considering an August Paris stay, although nothing has been decided. I've seen excellent prices for Libertel-Canale St. Martin through the Ryanairhotels.com web site, and these prices include breakfast. I don't know how the price compares to Orbitz or other resellers, but I know the Ryanairhotels.com web site has a cheaper price than the hotel for the dates I checked.

WT-that's why I said check the hotel reservation sites-it's not always true that the hotel website has the best rates, that's why you need to compare them. By the way, I've never looked at Ryanair's hotel servation site (although I flew Ryanair from Ciampino to Beauvais in Sept. and found that flight and subsequent bus ride into the city to be very easy and stress-free) -I'll have to check it out.
