10 Budget Friendly Hotels in Paris
10 Budget-Friendly Hotels in Paris
I am starting a new series on the blog that is Paris on a Budget. Accommodations can be the most expensive part of trip planning even more than the flight. Once you have the flight booked, you will need to sort out accommodations. This post is an update from an original blog post on Budget Friendly Paris Hotels. Paris hotels have climbed in price due to the large demand for tourism since opening back up. Location and time of year is always a factor that can drastically change a room’s price. Reference the map below to narrow down your selection if there is a certain area you want to be based.
Book your hotel rooms as soon as you have your dates to lock in great deals. As you get closer, the room rate may jump dramatically based on demand. Spring, summer, and fall are all high seasons for Paris.
If there are hotels you have stayed at that you would recommend feel free to leave them in the comments below so we can share them with other readers.
Enjoy the new series and this allows the trip planning process to be easier and more approachable when it comes to budget.
For more details on How Much To Spend in Paris in A Day, you can refer to this post.
Budget Friendly Hotels in Paris: Maison Mère
Maison Mère is new on the scene in terms of boutique hotels and is the perfect place to spend a weekend or week in Paris. The rooms are equipped with modern amenities, it is brand new with close proximity to so many of Paris’s tourist attractions. Balconies look onto a quiet street. I recently stayed here earlier this summer and will be back for another stay later this year. The front desk is extremely helpful with any recommendations for places to eat in the area and they will store your luggage while you wait for your room.
There is a restaurant serving continental breakfast just off the lobby of the hotel. It is a short walk to great coffee and bakeries in the area as well. You can see my guide to the 9th arrondissement here for other suggestions in the area.
Hotel Caron de Beaumarchais
Hotel Paradis
Hotel Bienvenue
Located in the 9th arrondissement Hotel Bienvenue is situated in a great location for someone looking for a local Paris experience. Rooms start as low as $100 – $200 (there is a triple room available for families for $180) Cooking classes are provided once a week on-site.
Hotel Monge
Hotel Monge is located on the Left Bank of Paris and is a quick walk to the Latin Quarter where you will find affordable food and drinks in the city of lights. The hotel has stylish rooms which are modern along with free breakfast and free wi-fi. There is plenty to do in the area including the Jardin des Plantes, Panthéon, and Luxembourg Gardens.
Hotel Grands Boulevards
Hotel Grands Boulevards is on the pricier end of the budget hotels, where can find a room closer to $200 per night. The hotel is Instagram friendly you may notice some of the images from your favorite bloggers spending time in Paris. I have not stayed here but wouldn’t hesitate in booking a night or two here. It is a 4-star hotel centrally located in the heart of the city which makes most of the city walkable. Unless you are right by the Eiffel Tower, I always feel that is one spot that might not be walkable. You can easily hop on the metro lines or grab an Uber.
Several friends of mine have stayed here over the summer and they specifically asked me to recommend this hotel to readers after their stays. There is a rooftop terrace for drinks and a view of the city of Paris.
Hotel Royal Madeleine
I discovered Hotel Royal Madeleine a few weeks back while doing blog research. I have recommended this place to a few friends and I would love the opportunity to stay here. It is located in the heart of the 8th arrondissement and recently went under a remodel. The hotel looks fantastic and the price is right at $160-$180 per night.
Hotel Adèle and Jules
Hotel Thèrese
Hotel Thèrese is the sister hotel of Adèle and Jules that I rave about all the time. The hotel is tucked away on a quiet street just a quick walk to the Louvre museum and easy access to so many of the great Paris first-time tourist spots on your must-see list. This is a great central location for exploring Paris for the first time. I stayed here once and really enjoyed the attention to detail from the desk staff and my room had a view of the quiet street. Hotel Thèrese is also a quick walking distance of Palais Royal and The Tuileries Gardens.
Hotel de la Tamise
Hotel de la Tamise is located in the Louvré- Saint Honoré district in central Paris on a quiet street overlooking The Tuileries Gardens. This hotel is composed of 19 rooms as a small boutique hotel with hotel rooms available for solo travelers and family rooms. You can’t beat the location with a quick walk to The Tuileries, Louvre, and Palais Royal. A walk across the Seine river will take you to St. Germain des Prés.

I always stay at Hotel La Perle in the 6th. Fabulous location 34 room boutique hotel. 5 euro breakfast. Wonderful staff.
Hi Rebecca,
We too are traveling to Paris this October, my daughter and I. I was wondering if you have any other quaint budget hotels to add to this list? Like Paloma in teh comments below, we are struggling to find any of these under $300/$400 per night.
Thank you!
Tania
Thank you for this post. My husband and I are travelling this October for our honeymoon and were looking for a nice boutique still affordable hotel, I checked the above online but rates are higher than what you mentioned :(. Do you have any other suggestions that are within a $150/$200 per night budget? Hotel Des Grands Boulevard is my favorite I think but it is $400 per night at the moment, Thank you again!
thank you , lovely reading and great addresses. !!
Do you have any suggestions for 6th? Family of 4
My sister-in-law & I stayed at the Hotel Caron de Beaumarchais last summer; what a wonderful little spot. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we had a nice stay–we were on the second floor in back; ordered breakfast on our last morning. I just wish we hadn’t waited til the end.
I highly recommend this hotel–great staff, atmosphere and location! We were able to walk almost everywhere!
Hi Ann,
I am so happy you enjoyed Hotel Caron de Beaumarchais. You have to have a balcony next trip. The perfect spot to enjoy that amazing breakfast. Is it still 12 euros? Best value in the city!
Rebecca
We stayed at the Hotel Ampere in the 17th. It was a queen bed with a single for 3 adults. We payed around 170 per night (Travelocity). It was a nice walk to the Arc de Triomphe. The metro (Pereire stop) was right across the street on a circle. There was the RER C on the next street by the circle. This train takes you direct to Versailles. The hotel has a great staff with lots of recommendations for meals and excursions. We found Bacinos which was the best Italian I ever ate. We went there twice because I had to get the Carpaccio that someone ordered on the first visit. We were going to stay at the Mercure by the Eiffel Tower but glad we didn’t. There wasn’t a lot there and it looked sketchy at night. The Hotel Ampere looks like its in a more residential area. Lots of Patisseries and Boulangeries. There was one across from the Bacino restaurant that was excellent!!!
Booking Hotel Royal Madeleine right now! Thank you so much for this helpful post!
You are so welcome! I hope you enjoy your stay in Paris. xo
This is brilliant! Just booked for my New Years trip to Paris! Thank you
Thank you, Reggie! Where are you staying?
I will have more tips on things to do over New Years soon!
So many great suggestions on this list! Not sure what their rates are like these days but I stayed at The Hoxton last December and it was very reasonable and super hip. Beautiful decor, nice restaurant and a secret bar!
Hi Lindsey,
I visited The Hoxton for a drink earlier this year but I haven’t stayed here yet. I am so happy to hear you enjoyed it. When I looked at the rates they were a little higher than the other hotels so I kept it out of the budget post. I will look at them for a future post. I am excited to hear they are bringing one to Chicago in a few years 🙂
Rebecca
These are wonderful suggestions. I also recommend checking HotelTonight for great rates on nice hotels, I frequently get hotels for $100!
oh wow! Great suggestion. I will look into that. Thank you!
We had a hard time finding a hotel (within our budget) with 2 actual beds instead of a bed and a pull out for myself and a friend I’m traveling with in a couple of weeks. Being 50, we need an actual bed if we want to be able to move the next day 🙂 These look very nice.
Bonjour, Tami ~ May I ask where you ended up staying? I am in the same pickle in pre-planning stages for an October trip. Merci!
Hotel du Champ de Mars in the 7th (https://www.hotelduchampdemars.com). So sweet and close to so much!!
Thank you, Robin! I can’t wait to check it out.
Hotel de Jobo (Josephine Bonaparte) in Marais. Boutique hotel steps from the St. Paul metro stop and a lovely off the beaten path courtyard full of cafes and restaurants. Steps from Rue des Rosiers, a vaudeville theatre, an Irish pub, a quaint shop selling anything you might need should the weather turn and you just didn’t pack for it, lovely staff.
I stayed in the Hotel de la Sorbonne 40 years ago when I first traveled to Paris — it’s gone through a complete transformation since then. Rooms are still quite affordable, and the Left Bank location is quite handy. https://www.hotelsorbonne.com
Thank you so much, Jim! I will check it out now. I love reader recommendations 🙂
Thanks for these recommendations! I’ve stayed at a different hotel every time I’ve been to Paris and around $120-150 is usually my budget but I have never managed to stumble across any of these gems. ❤️😊
I am so happy to hear this post helps! It was a lot of fun discovering these and I am staying in one of them on an upcoming trip. I will report back. If you end up booking any of them, please let me know your thoughts!
