Paris is far from cheap – so to ensure you’ve got as many euros leftover as possible to gorge on l’esgargot, sip on some delicious wine and cover your entry to all those galleries, why not stay somewhere on the budget end of the hotel spectrum?
The French capital knows a thing or two about swanky hotels (have a gander at some of the best Paris hotels here), but it also has plenty of perfectly nice, affordable places to stay too – and we would know, having just given our list of the best budget hotels in Paris a fresh overhaul.
So, where is the best cheap hotel in Paris? Well, according to us, it’s Hôtel La Conversation, a chic new(ish) opening with plenty of character, which will by no means break the bank.
It’s located in Paris’s 15th arrondissement, just around the Parc Georges-Brassens and only a 15-minute cycle from the Eiffel Tower and Le Jardin du Luxembourg.
As for the hotel itself, Paris’s writer Alix Leridon said: ‘Opened quietly a year ago, La Conversation is a charming boutique hotel of the kind you rarely see anymore. It’s a three-star stay with plenty of character and a strong focus on warmth and sociability, thanks to a handful of intimate shared spaces.’
‘On the ground floor you’ll find a softly lit wine bar, a cosy, light-filled veranda, and a small patio perfect for cooling off in summer. A real bonus – in all these spaces, guests can help themselves to tea and coffee throughout the day.’
Sounds pretty darn good, right? Read our full review here.
