These are some of our favourites for under £200 a night By [Lauren Burvill](https://www.cntraveller.com/profile/lauren-burvill) 13 January 2026 _pr.jpg) For me, there's always been good reason to research some of the cheapest, nicest [hotels in Paris](https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/paris-hotels). I’ve travelled all around the world with my husband, but he refuses to visit the French capital, despite its obvious allure. His complaint about the City of Light is less about how expensive it is and more about what you get for your money. For the price of a spacious suite with a view in another [European city](https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/cheapest-city-breaks-in-europe), here, this often equates to a shoebox with a pokey bathroom and window overlooking a back alley. There are, of course, some incredible hotels in Paris – among some of the best and most beautiful in the world. To reserve a fairytale room in one of these addresses requires deep pockets – a night at [Cheval Blanc Paris](https://cna.st/affiliate-link/RxYrVJ2FDJxYwbfKFmF5RZkp1vJbVBUU3UAH9B4qmnazJQRkpztGdJK1QTXkVtuyLzjFsAvaAmWBKjE71pvH8MCQoou2v9gKvmyJMuWbGEF9vkMxmwQEFaKynodpCUWN4kNsJVeT51fCrUrx2ifVFm7aDxT5zh8EiQecvViwUusjgsK5XjVeKRsHahionQbbWtJZvgQDjzKPPScs6ZNoTyDFhjC4LZBSZ5rd8XPrfMPHTZfSxDv8BxiaMwPDEb9TbWhrECdceHpKWRCgCBWgDawvKiLfSgg1v7iFdURtJfhVDDQZkxYajv2KBxNiCz) can reach into the thousands. Between the extraordinarily lavish and the woefully average, however, there are a handful of affordable gems. These are our favourite reasonably priced, smart hotels in Paris with room rates under £200 a night.

The 172 rooms are spread across four floors, with herringbone floors, brass details and vintage telephones that nod to mid-century cool. Categories run from the petite Shoebox to the spacious Biggy, but all share the same pared-back, quietly confident design. Downstairs, the mood is lively: Rivie, the all-day brasserie, opens onto a plant-filled courtyard that hums from breakfast to late-night cocktails, while Jacques’ Bar upstairs is a sultry hideaway for nightcaps. The buzzy ground floor is filled with Parisians on laptops by day and a fashionable crowd by night, cementing The Hoxton’s role as more than a hotel - it’s an ultra-cool neighbourhood hangout. *Anita Bhagwandas* **Prices:** Rooms start from around £200 per night [Read Full Review](https://www.cntraveller.com/hotels/paris/the-hoxton-paris-hotel-review) [Check Availability at Booking.com](https://cna.st/h/9t8kf9Usx7ZykBjMmqD43gu7RKvqiM2bBNGdK7dtdDLRfzjnP6WBJTmxovQkUGxvQyGiBXufQcmGAKWoPy9XBA46V6SXgpuPNNRSGDguyhB52ZYxeUZRPnBk89ooc1ySyTv32yWCkF4ibs3TXpdmDRtajUfQzXMs62DqRw29DGLULxBQNyFwtXqkbwdVnqskmkh78JfiDWfmCftMfgjUoAZ3vh1Nbhj6P6g4UftRiHqsSHUVX56NJuGevRrBHQoTzYYPbLA5zSAbxELNtQfE9iSEYD7raCHnZL6TP9vrigL2YaYwcwtyw5VZT4fsWfNmXCyH8h6FKLoySszwVJyM82TAeDNzyPedkuVKoBC7YMY5GrNLhkNfTP7qThmSnWXBwfSbCX2A) [Check Availability at Expedia](https://cna.st/h/oxmzN5BRSFNAW6fKz1Wmaa7wQ5mgybs9fm4qZs7Dy9Nm8nnHGciGFRoAsX5txjNaymnh16Wkwmv9aLggce7jRk9dPCCL3tJzDfw5bfBS1CPwYabWGqrQJeFboyvjzJBhMRUTXQeVaRe7djpNegqdNcXXcReX9ug55FvYGanqSSs6Ta9uqGz8bh8CSkf43M3Q6obS1tzkL1KEnBVAy7AXU8YzENqpjYMYAszrMHoGbNUnzVWjWTSMko5Y6xWW7cPw3S7EWn2eQvdU2aHaNs2h2fnCGAWFsaaf5EaPE32dkkWReQKErFph8XjjwrSB8kFcFSgg6tfFgRke6oKcTpHKXG2gnjTjuSmbtBRXqWHUpSQeVSMfC1aRB6SxRVBibn9AHuZppPgHLFGoWcWyDPj3gzfNSEnaWEsByuPS3VC) - - []() - []() - []() - []() [Boudoir des Muses, 3rd arrondissement](https://www.cntraveller.com/hotels/paris/boudoir-des-muses) There’s a definitive vibe to Boudoir de Muses – one that’s romantic in an overt way, and unashamed of its provocative nature. Originally built in the 18th century, initially, it was home to a theatre whereby its actresses were renowned for having – shall we say – ‘loose morals’. But in a surprising turn of events it later became a convent. Now, association with its past is intended to be a respectful reflection of its history. We stayed in a suite which was beautifully spacious compared to Parisian boutique stays I’ve had in the past. As with most of the smaller Parisian hotels, all the food and drink action happens in the same place – the property’s entrance is designed to be a comfortable lounge, bar and breakfast area. Pink and green velvet chairs frame gold-trimmed tables and, looking down from the higher floors of the building, you can see they’ve been arranged in the shape of a cross. At night, cocktails and tapas are served to accompany live DJ sets that last well into the evening. Underground, bookable private baths are available to hotel and external guests, as are a calendar of events: cabaret shows, tarot reading, self confidence workshops and guided meditations. *Sarah Bannerman* **Prices:** Rooms from around £200 per night.

A late-night hotspot on boulevard Marguerite de Rochechouart, the hotel’s Jazz Age incarnation drew in travelling artists, intellectuals and a smattering of stars. It’s now part of Orso, a new collection of hotels run by industry veterans Louis and Anouk Solanet (also behind Hotel Wallace below), and the sultry theatrics of the era make a welcome comeback. The couple teamed up with Charlotte de Tonnac and Hugo Sauzay of Festen Architecture to revive the building’s legacy with modern touches. Some of the finest original details were restored, from the Thirties blue mosaic floor in the restaurant to the marble staircase and glass lift. Upstairs, 106 rooms were given an autumnal, woody touch with shades of bronze, ochre and terracotta. Decorative details, from the burl-wood headboards to the curved armchairs and alabaster suspension lamps, thoughtfully whisk guests to another time. The Sacré-Coeur looms large from northern-facing bedroom windows (and in some cases, balconies) but is visible to all from the rooftop bar. On the ground floor, an old-world brasserie with plush banquettes serves up comforting Parisian classics, from chicken-liver pâté to roasted pork belly with crisp *frites* and the signature crêpe cake – a family recipe guests invariably try to coax out of the staff. One floor underground, the old Mikado club of the 1920s has returned as a dimly-lit speakeasy, where a trendy set sip cocktails on plush velvet sofas while a DJ spins electric beats in the corner. Next door, blue-hued Citrons et Huîtres is where locals perch at red metal tables on the pavement, throwing back fresh oysters from Brittany and chilled Champagne. *Jessica Rach* **Price:** Rooms from around £120 per night [Read Full Review](https://www.cntraveller.com/hotels/paris/hotel-rochechouart-paris-review) [Check Availability at Booking.com](https://cna.st/h/7ZJg7i5XH42aCF2P8gECYBLSQeBWKFY4NdAnfESdUhrbp1TuCGUK3FdLiMzdyCZ8CDUUMcmKwLpsNCptNVfLmA3eQYcFQuN1aKVR7nhiUvyrY5XbV9YLRE654sZGjsZ5TLD5916V8JcqttWXcqdLD2YUCjLuryZqMDtyTnoJPNFYDYaDt2Xq3mmPXjtSfuB1Kr3UvBFSsp2q4xncy4FThqSyvFruZ71msG3qgrhDeux43AKiSBorD2KJKedc2RViGTyN5M6st7Tfu7TabbfMePuJsfUEs7Q3tLLPymJqJkkHHFQieuCzTvZEi7zBMBhxKYn4XDkFQg1xToZLV9tPKuafya29Mjy3jQ5tdEmBtTDrrSx1QQ7QrYFkj2tMXWcnR14XQenbT1w73N123Qn) [Check Availability at Expedia](https://cna.st/h/3Qp9kvLiToJt4KNSB6i55QahayR3xaW5M5BUgTdYoDJB8R94E2g5cmCyHreVA1yYcTxciW56TEh3Kxzsh6SD27DtPn18EvueWjSvQD9u1w3a477PwfPTRBXS26XBrGcSfgfq5KEGCd5Bb6GUka5AxhwSbxP1efCiH6yJFmt3xxjM86aYLKPqQyFQcK33uj1DGaCVHzVa42brXYj62S2A7yGDbG7L4o5o2hFs9ByBz7cgyea8ZPRbsP7edawKN7d4D1RAjTWa5fqMDDdoHBYmzoi9NjuACLmTjh72jPr4wXM4bKRHUBTbi54udU8ypj5nK7bsJ2qjeBC9qeA16VReaP8LkkVhwak7zrXANR1iQUp2aRPBPYCdudp6CZ4hK7Pa7o6WbGkkRZaQfJajEuBFcTukM1CadugCve3R4) - - []() Simon Brown - []() Simon Brown - []() Simon Brown - []() Simon Brown [Hôtel de La Boétie, 8th arrondissement](https://www.cntraveller.com/hotels/hotel-de-la-boetie-paris) Minutes from the Champs-Élysées, Hôtel de La Boétie's right bank address is far from chi-chi. It's plotted on an unassuming street which ultimately leads you onto a plethora of luxury stores. The 8th arrondissement is, after all, best known for its [shopping](https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/best-shopping-in-paris). But there's more to this charismatic property than its location. Interiors are curated by [London](https://www.cntraveller.com/topic/london)\-based Swedish designer Beata Heuman who experiments with colour, texture and shape to make each corner of the property a visual delight. Handwoven tapestry headboards hang above pink sheets, which contrast glossy, forest-green bathroom tiles. It's a well-curated mix that leaves a lasting impression. Rooms are relatively small, the bar stocks a concise selection of drinks for those stopping in on route to dinner plans, and breakfast is a casual continental affair - all traits well-suited to a busy city agenda. **Price:** Rooms from around £180 per night [Read Full Review](https://www.cntraveller.com/hotels/hotel-de-la-boetie-paris) [Check Availability at Booking.com](https://cna.st/h/gChDhNS3tFzZTcMxgsnCSs71LNYe1VQ1rksyGxHprqSju7qqJXHnU5BTL6jpsPTpkoNLmVRSXErMv8iXnNpcBpxfD11gSQLH9bKAGtb1CGyvptJkUKowFS7aUjdm5WDYCNswyhFP7FpULV6Xt2TcKy9byQJLkELqXRYCgW61XommchvUgigLwdtYKRQoZ67owSmPcdTagN87o9FgnwJ4WDoiH2jgSR4H9NNbpkqgYr4Hcuwnee1Pfkyayzdw7EXhL3ASGUwZc19oanfsGQ4f2DbYKzW9cUZAvhHsps583TUrLQY57FwxU482Y3R9QxSZf4rpGiipMeHjVqbNV6VHFV3UerMouAK7MxoTE3dWyK6FSEtwE3pz872hKWXVJP5pm9m7k5DWa) [Check Availability at Expedia](https://cna.st/h/8BFLxn9SwWrY9Ero4wtRXrz5WhryvZGqchbcvSNL5VpY3AsCDSmGLa2ABh3iXzdDXGtz8ec1Skctv3xGub2FY4kQVmyAqzoAoMb8AUhEjxid2mg2qLSWv5aGJRwdGq68ZpXa8f3EBMBemStNBrPJfj3uzYBSy5WFVRvYTZPVzqqwra7GPNUw7s9P3kLRUe2yVjn2qPiaUcFiVtpdDkyebdNjmYa73bovCY3m6nUPZXBCcNz8vkjJpGJ3MkKcdVC1iPjB8EY7ceu5Lf4owByRAwYM6yVCHoDdqBSQ48N2ttHJabQy5vxvHYXmzwQiduZyaWLTnxoTexojobVD8zNcxa9jDHsPJhTZwfSCQHqZHAHqeMfxd2gDjL8S8pFoBRmRyqKwA61pvJnEADbqjPGFjyqqu4HQmtykYr) - [](https://cna.st/h/26cS5CHyNDD85u6ajbZ9tuA39pGgK6zhKZSs3Xw3xu6yDB5WtxMrUpDa5HUwu2yJ4FWNPi2g7cYhvPzyCaPbbzeSG1xK7yWuRujfC4abxe7cLfZAQkjSSNTDzoTQ1ecnALB3s2b46uSa3W5SBXeGfWxyAYyhriV5ybBS828DQkEChoRB8CKHaNYU63JcQphWNSNsF9veH6AoyyasMqD4xHz6jN9CLnmR6P45XJUZ8ENtUXDStzVGWnsezuqxxv1xzLvkHALzvpoLk3ie9EbSwqLXyWJykPZyMYZHTv3xJYMC1vnFSL3tqpvGukDTCLPjA1fJVRY3QFRzBr98S3qmNcbftCk7PoXAYc3QbLtLiL6vcn3HJexF1yCKagGoSzAo8hxPW8WWHN9sa52PgfstuTunESmBg) Le Pigalle [Le Pigalle, 9th arrondissement](https://www.cntraveller.com/hotels/le-pigalle) This little Parisienne in the heart of once-sketchy, now super-cool Pigalle (on the on the border of the 9th and the 18th arrondissements) is well thought through. It’s from the group behind Instagram-famous Les Roches Rouges on the [Côte d'Azur](https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/small-hotels-in-the-south-of-france) , so we knew it would be. The rooms, which are small, are kitted out with Art Deco furniture and shelves stacked with well-curated photographs. There are turntables and a selection of vinyl as well as pre-mixed Negronis and Manhattans in bottles in the mini bar. There’s no denying the neighbourhood is lively at night – the hotel is on a strip just south of the Metro that’s full of strip clubs and sex shops, but also fun bars such as Dirty Dick and Lipstick. Downstairs in the lobby, as well as a marble-topped co-working space, there’s a red velvet curtain which pulls back to reveal a velvet banquet, neon sign and pole. Find young couples recovering from hangovers over a breakfast of avocado toast with cream cheese and croissants that’s served until 4pm. For those seeking a cool sleepover within walking distance of a fun night out, this is the place to stay if you’re partying in Paris. *Tabitha Joyce* **Prices:** Rooms from around £150 per night.

Dorothée Delaye and Daphné Desjeux have since gone their separate ways design-wise, but together, they did a stellar job of transforming a former apartment block into 36 retro-chic rooms. The duo’s signature, a sombre palette of khaki, forest green, grey and rust, imbues each space with a sophisticated but nostalgic feel, enhanced by bespoke Art Deco-inspired furnishings such as curved velvet-clad headboards, oversized wall lights and old-fashioned writing desks complete with rotary dial telephones. Downstairs in the library lounge, once a sweet shop, flamboyant fringing and plush velvets in jewel tones contrast the unfinished walls, raw wood table, and flea market finds. There’s also a tiny but cute terrace with sugary pink walls and blue Zellige-style tiles. And whilst that’s it in terms of facilities, there’s plenty to explore outside; start with Yann Couvreur patisserie just down the road and tap the hotel staff for their recommendations in nearby *bobo* (*bourgeois-bohème*) magnets of Belleville and Canal Saint Martin. *Nicola Leigh Stewart* **Price:** Rooms from around £125 per night [Book your stay: Booking.com](https://cna.st/affiliate-link/2HJc3Q4E4T5trbHsUdM9iXt1xBDkBjfWxfefwm2nq9G1wawMvMQYUe24CzfE3ZEpPedzyGHZTPC2BidEgQeK12koxSHpnpCyysTsLEUHiH2nKaz7QSS43TvVnj3shkP4jfkjU3DzDkgyKSNzokJGGjUKPgU1iu5cuK8STuxAQ1hEE4STQr146BTjaeBfCW8uwL5L7AwxYL8HemcBK8aiNA21yDndJHkqt6jtrrGqrsdyDSY8Qptj1auzNABT1EaPYMXAxTS8oMLx5hMphaBZfLWe9PK3BsFhWo8AUZxRb6mn5rjznpL6CSt1PFwp "Book your stay: Booking.com")[Book your stay: Expedia](https://cna.st/affiliate-link/7mt5xvce1CrfsqPiz8Z6YmHhr2PfuRSXdKgYwBjYkKBN39ps678Em4fBVLx6WJNjeqBxNDbTYD8HtBSw4coWTwS2jnP7q9hP89cgSKAhAoB8FAyRJKewTxnqc1fgbmR2WjPH62ktkrBQibh5xRseuQnPJLWcTr9Aii2Kajs4oLGJADkB1Rmd1Zo4Pg34shxBK9wN5vyxfbcKVew1peLBYaJoxnPngED92X7xtEMqhB7W2BF8pUQpiHPwgbX3faoQVQTA76TLBNkYzfhf27Ji2U7pvfA9FcNzrXAFrgVvqxhLg3EW8YHtKt4JurgW5swzde5idX3P1XBoKwo3hEEGZHMAX1L "Book your stay: Expedia") -  Benoit Linero ## Hôtel des Academies et des Arts, 6th arrondissement Back in Paris’ Belle Époque heyday, rue de la Grande Chaumière fizzed with artistic talent. The who’s who of the art world walked through the doors of the street’s eponymous art academy (Marc Chagall and Fernand Léger, to namedrop just two), and the likes of Mucha and Gaugin hung out across the road at Chez Charlotte, still there now. Even Picasso lived nearby. Boutique hotel brand Chapitre Six has tapped into this energy and kept it alive with the opening of Hôtel des Academies et des Arts, a pocket-sized address housed in the building where Modigliani worked and where Franco-Japanese artist Fujita lived after arriving from Japan. Design studio Lizée-Hugot was handed the keys to just 20 rooms and kept the design intentionally pared back in order to let your creativity wander. The result feels effortlessly cool; think white lime plaster walls, heavy oak wood furnishings, a smattering of artworks and colour, and in ten of the rooms, ceilings stepped in as canvases for artist Franck Lebraly to create his Surrealist- and Cubist-inspired pastel frescoes. Handmade chunky iron nails along each wall are a more abstract nod to the art world, referencing the spaces reserved for as yet unhung masterpieces. You might feel like creating your own in the downstairs atelier with easels, sketchbooks and pencils. For those struggling to unlock their inner artist, the hotel has partnered with the famed art school across the street, Académie de la Grande Chaumière, to offer guests lessons. If that doesn’t work, try sleeping in Modigliani’s former studio to find creative inspiration: book room 52 to give it a go. The hotel also hosts rotating exhibitions from more current artists - guests are welcome to attend the vernissage (opening night) if it falls during their stay – and art in all its forms is also for sale around the hotel, so don’t be shy about asking if something catches your eye. You might’ve just spotted the next Picasso. *Nicola Leigh Stewart* **Price:** Rooms from around £180 per night [Book your stay: Booking.com](https://cna.st/affiliate-link/5B83M5vYZfeZBvNpL21PLtBuFr7TBNafu1mdxDWS7E4AYWJrFHN7jhBr7EzJXhbWysmmXqfPhoRJ8nUfrvsKJc8z5DJ9kuxsrSUtYD2c9MUFYbXiAx687C1hgcpKLLjWbsJ7BNU2ELRJ5j14Evw3re7SkGc9desWysdjwH2btdS4oxX7wQK6ncjyWWMQYSvAYdEVusHEK1JBxba5YZFPPus5eJPbYHWhjc25RnqQv3NW3in85aHV76xpcsX2fqNypVdsN4H1SMFD3Efk5EVwCJ7q3ZCdj6Jfxnx3LrJVgeW8t5hHrhhiFfDVPzMMte413yW3ZJpi "Book your stay: Booking.com")[Book your stay: Expedia](https://cna.st/affiliate-link/B3TtCQX4Kz5G8VjHjwdhTTigSsFCantJnoKuM9Rrz7dwxxRfcxKJjCxT6e9nVRmumM4ZF9MpYfeN1nnDFBsz1cQmT5fR22aN7MgMhf3sUbEzHZQqMCBehUxoL6Na2HmExpL5h6UB5mWgpQ6mtZ5FVHBVuUwqx7tD4eCTGWceJhFSyRVVqzvsLkt29Pqn66WJxC7QDD7vR9uhBNcNYeNXiHojCcQM8Gx8nsYkWEvLRroT9osnUwaA25x5FwihJWFnN7rWQDdikwK1Ukyrd1PG5XDCU6iwzQVp11apoiSM2U8hgvsJo4KPNM8WTgaBTYfKjPphE9sf2RpNj65rAWjwckhf4eEFUpa "Book your stay: Expedia") -  Benoît Linero ## Hôtel les Deux Gares, 10th arrondissement It’s hard to imagine that a single corner of the French capital has been left unexplored by hoteliers over the past decade. But, as proven by Adrien Gloaguen’s spot – steps from the Eurostar terminal in unsung Little India – there are still overlooked pockets to be happened upon. When he first visited the site, then a glum two-star number, and saw the skyline views over the train tracks linking two of the city’s main stations, he knew that he could make something special of it. And that the right person for the job would be British wunderkind Luke Edward Hall. The interior designer’s first project is full of joy, with nods to the past everywhere but also contemporary excitement. The Haussmann-style corner building is awash with bold colour combinations, which is what drew the creative crowd who booked out the place even before it opened. ‘It’s my own, very personal and playful take on Parisian style,’ says Edward Hall. French antiques sit next to mid-century lamps; checkerboard contrasts with leopard print, and there are [Seventies](https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/seventies-interiors) geometric carpets alongside Art Deco details. Edward Hall also transformed the tired bar across the street into the [Café Les Deux Gares](https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/beautiful-restaurants-paris#bGZP2bQoB3a). The bistro already has a following of locals and food writers who feast on a lunch menu of plates such as succulent pork loin with beetroot, washed down with natural wines. It takes a bold move to persuade savvy travellers to loiter near the [stations](https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/best-uk-breaks-train) but the duo behind this hotel have cracked it. The fifth-floor suites with their balconies from which to admire the wide-open skies, a rare thing in Europe’s second-most densely populated city. *Rooksana Hossenally* **Price:** Rooms from around £150 per night [Book your stay: Booking.com](https://cna.st/affiliate-link/4pDSKR9fHyZqYofGvfHPiobotiBUP6kYYsC7EnCxV2h6Cidqrn1kQcTAEFwihJH3Z83VFe94SGx98v1akDYFb231Be92TT4sCADkyechxgTEtc6adEvyWhd89yszQ1yAjq1wynDb6evjujzGbSHB1TTUwchSaeo1dcWEYACVEn394KGt5a23sqLw2VGH9eVty6drrwAKqFC5gSkf3xVZ1f4HkxYKLUSaWYj72dn4LGz6SNjvXxKZpzXHzaG63zdR7AatRTWQ3bTdv53aC2X1WqkRNWeLy12Yaw1VU9V1NM3Jev7mH155Mgvcz "Book your stay: Booking.com")[Book your stay: Expedia](https://cna.st/affiliate-link/B3TtCQX4Kz5G8VjHjwdhTTigSsFCantJnoKuM9Rrz7dwxxRfcxKJjCxT6e9nVRmumM4ZF9MpYfeN1nnDFBsz1cQmT5fR22aN7MgMhf3sUbEzHZLRkbSS1xBamecX7ZvUGwTKnRSLsmpywXuURasBx2Rme43X2u4MJZFkW4rZVfVxA4NmaS3T8bkZt3Fs94NC3R1S1No3QyAESaqd2iSfdmdtBr7tDWtUPafQMEWmaiBGecFH8BerMV7wwPJD56Qd6r5hMQuysMYy4Kaa4orLAawYJ5xewpLnraLRQ6nTGX9id9KZPrmvtX4JzweNcGjPhhjANceV7SYVVoRjcAraopY5qN37g4S "Book your stay: Expedia") -  ## Maison Mere, 9th arrondissement There’s a very “*Honey*, I’m Home!” vibe at this cosy new addition to the hip 9th arrondissement in between metro Cadet and market street rue des Martyrs. The subtle nods come in the form of a honeycomb-shaped logo, which is first seen in the intricate floral mosaic upon entering, and then again in the bathrooms via the cloud-colored hexagonal shower tiles that shout “so fresh! so clean! so shiny!” (The *Rêve de Miel* Nuxe bath products help, too.) But then there’s also the more obvious Hey Honey restaurant where an appropriately sweet brut bubbly is served alongside tasty small, shared plates such as roasted curried cauliflower and oyster mushroom ravioli with crunchy hazelnuts from chef Santiago Guerrero. (Breakfast in the same space is buffet style, but there’s an all-day, a la carte dining menu, too, featuring the likes of a quinoa salad with roasted pumpkin and a Cuban sandwich with yucca fries.) Beyond all the references to a bees’ nectar—and it’s far more clever than it is kitschy—the property does feel like one’s arrived in a place of familiarity and comfort. In fact, guests may even see dogs roaming about as the hotel welcomes four-legged friends—going so far as to put water bowls and treats in the room for those traveling with one. In addition, each of the 51 varying room sizes and two suites highlight a mix of artwork and otherworldly objects such as line drawings of fashionistas and black onyx vases. Everything, as cheekily explained on a printed index card, is for sale. Over in the common areas that flank the small lobby, guests can rest on a bubblegum pink, curved ‘70s sofa after a day of shopping or touring, or co-work with business associates in front of the smart TV around a long wooden conference table that’s surrounded by wingback chairs. In all, it’s a sweet place to call *Maison* for the night. *Sara Lieberman* **Price:** Rooms from around £200 per night [Book your stay: Expedia](https://cna.st/affiliate-link/hVt5qe48J653rnrUENVjQMUZjpgVyQzabaVxLfoKPk4D2mVZuPcQ6BW4gaWD991vQPzydc858NjAjFhXBdjKbdDwkzVJ9iC7twVBkvCrhWGj1QaFkgK1Ahr6bnYL5j7q7vdMMLEi8ZNZV92wDL2PPta74dBnGKaTrzTG1AiEtuvccQUDHVVMarnn6m5vpgGsdobeJhcbCnC8HmjsQB1fUdJoaZSNsYUSfDYEMLEW1Q7uR5xDfJS1PArugRmraWNSNVq86yWUdmbZJ7MrEdugdtufekpFRmP8EApu7SHxuxHvCpC2pjzVbMaPuaAdSzopRvS3CpWJfbTn1gaqx "Book your stay: Expedia")[Book your stay: Booking.com](https://cna.st/affiliate-link/3aDLD4v8PzjSv2t5ipGYP6NaA6EEWbNo2D9AraQEsp2R6kZqqvKS45t6CBB8ZTUcRwkPTRaMKBE1rnHQrZUbQUGbxfVWmPsrhNMfC81HBKEEsXQdMtSTwNg6e1WYNxZndDGr3Uu9MTQzQwd5MoGHoeYx8jc8MUd11rGSTiJK973J8vGHqdDaYjpBYbzmzAtwmsXjt1jsSETTWWgsrdt5Ka9ER5gwz21LjYZZHx8UcxzA3xihBC3dtyoFLuEr7kaAcn3ZfCCGRwEGeUSMTDcXXJACSGsny9ydrF8kH9Xd8yo7deW5msHLN "Book your stay: Booking.com") -  Hervé Goluza ## Hotel Bienvenue, 9th arrondissement Just 10 minutes’ walk from the Gare du Nord, this is a very affordable Art Deco-style option in South Pigalle. The hotel is part of the portfolio of Adrien Gloaguen (the independent hotelier behind nearby Hotel Panache and Hotel Paradis) sits on the grounds of the old Hotel Fenelon. But it’s no surprise that as the area has raised its game – it’s a favourite among the hipster set – so has this hotel. Chloé Nègre is behind the smart interiors, and her carefully manicured touches (candy pink and white stripes and floral armchairs, a plant-filled courtyard with a patterned floor) have been popping up all over social media. The bedrooms, in pastel shades with huge matching velvet headboards and geometric-patterned carpets, are pretty mini, but nonetheless make for a great Parisian pied-à-terre, as the hotel is walking distance from the Tuileries Garden and the Marais. *Tabitha Joyce* **Price:** Rooms from around £130 per night [Book your stay: Expedia](https://cna.st/affiliate-link/5a1FMimJbzYf6Lbhh8TPL5xrp3qGL9hYEwr9fMGjdEERN7dvhAdHnCfXasTMUeAudYcvj36eUN7sQX4mKsK8gbtyDQ3WATGdLqFWN2ME5FiMDSkhiSaLsg32SWWUdX1R8cMvk1P3ASeyAAyHg8jPPdnXdct6M4DGnShiJfLr6BJaZXLXQHTQBZXPP88LCTEUaZpR3oEVKmJw6L6RLDZxPKwVBCozMNRgZCS18QEWGJQBeY36vCVSFoLgaBxHDKDH29ogeeBF7WGcNYHDiqPaypWFvhXwmjeoknXqgnMVXKLwQMhwHhZXy4JWZCTEbUqPXJmsMu8yujwih5Pwtm7smkN "Book your stay: Expedia")[Book your stay: Booking.com](https://cna.st/affiliate-link/HqPtkHbE1vfwHNwwHqyMHWgdyEmDrYPCFeY2XpXmtiTwximcehgJbDUTjWxX2sFpGn5yhcvaAZQNuvyZwkLwP9ZqoxvRRhi1ckxdjHWPwqBdgFCwM6mQXDcLRJcF4ZiPgwv6QCCSDMyht582dFtTbzwLdgWJTa1KLDAabsvv5GVxaDjpVUEzxeQnuoA1BbvfhWj3jabTMAAXEx9YedpKGCBbZQ3RU16voMYFnrtXyDdNtB5YoZEeUDVDvzughxzUqUdaM9KWWLhg5qMv4ffRzRoXE241SsXQTwvC6kBzqXQ95bBiZNWHcBCVNA "Book your stay: Booking.com") -  @BenoitLinero ## Babel Belleville, 20th arrondissement Stepping away from the bustling boulevard de Belleville in the 20th arrondissement and into this 31-bedroom hotel feels almost like walking into a souk in Marrakech, with glass lanterns, *tomette* tiles and tapestry-covered armchairs. Owner Joris Bruneel’s dream was to honour the neighbourhood’s rich multiculturalism. He employed prolific boutique-hotel designer Daphné Desjeux to take inspiration from the locale, as well as the Silk Road and the eponymous biblical fable in her rich aesthetic. He also wanted to involve the community – such as local street artist 13 Bis who did the clever Adam and Eve bathroom murals, while Franco-Afghan chef Clarie Feral Akram serves pesto babka topped with tahini in the excellent restaurant. Not only that, but the hotel works with the nearby town hall to help those in need of emergency housing for a few nights and, in a collaboration with the Refugee Food Festival, provides nine-month internships to chefs from war-torn countries. Saturday lunches, however, are all about the *mamans du quartier*, who come in to cook their own cuisine, be it Algerian couscous or Damascus *muhammara*. In the minimalist rooms, thoughtful details make up for missing mainstays such as robes and TVs. There are jars filled with tea or ground coffee from local roastery La Brûlerie de Jourdain. But the most clever touch is the framed photographs on the walls. ‘We asked all our friends to send us the best pictures from their travels,’ says Bruneel. There’s one of his friend’s kids in Kabul, and another featuring the manager’s girlfriend in Bolivia’s salt marshes. Babel is a rare thing – a new hotel with a tangible soul. *Sara Lieberman* **Price:** Rooms from around £85 per night [Book your stay: Expedia](https://cna.st/affiliate-link/4NeJabgQykde5TzCvEUSCfjjCeE8BgYdS44Q5Zspo8JNPKNyjipDq852Vd6RafhiFuLntxLt3tfiFq51C3qJRFQV9uQ5z6yzMEFk4fzu2fit913mGkt1zPykgxM1CUFgDjHp5gGYjnY2Vd8S8vhh9wB2A2bLiwmHANixtk5qRCfUHKhV4tak3CkgjuKLAFN31uWk8Tzr5KJ5hAs694zfsvu4e1bXw3hHBjvpcJyTEfVYF1sTKxvYh26L4jCftoa716WZrUePVcey4rWMnTg8we5nT9Xk9nduAQ2jhN2dWZscCv5gUfSWtgqEFPGn4hfE8wQSwd7YtEmUgfSuXL3JqTjcoRhqrKTJFL "Book your stay: Expedia")[Book your stay: Booking.com](https://cna.st/affiliate-link/DRqZQmpTgrbgHKwLYXvpJaULSUw74bPLnnspZqeHfvAiH2HHhjHpRJUjWQaRV3HL6SprVEZw9wTKsLmZhMHCqrxfbrFavY2Hmxgn5UsuPF8j7JL7r7p74WaNXbu2hZcYQkNjTeYXoNEC8kiVECfgh9NPsmSby2rZ2bhjLrpBgr4GmnyAFcGwBpZpGhd7ZCTG3kjeiYWyJDbEbdpJ7CV3TAhLbDrMrpUXaprmzFsFmN2mv9AoYB5ew5DA6XgcVDd21xAnFpqTA5QMYV1NNLkqHE8aFT99UoTu1vAaiy9Aq7Caj7JydSEXXPcEidRSQDyMbjgN6 "Book your stay: Booking.com") ## More Paris recommendations - [Best hotels in Paris](https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/paris-hotels) - [Best hotels in Paris near the Eiffel Tower](https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/best-hotels-near-eiffel-tower) - [Best hotels in Paris with a view](https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/paris-hotels-with-view) - [Best Airbnbs in Paris](https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/best-airbnbs-paris) - [Best family friendly hotels in Paris](https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/family-hotels-paris) Topics[Hotels](https://www.cntraveller.com/topic/hotels)[Paris](https://www.cntraveller.com/topic/paris)[Affordable travel](https://www.cntraveller.com/topic/affordable-luxury-travel)[Destination guides](https://www.cntraveller.com/topic/destination-guides)[Shopping](https://www.cntraveller.com/topic/shopping) More from Condé Nast Traveller - [Places to Stay The best hotels with a view in Paris By Anna Prendergast and Nicola Leigh Stewart](https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/paris-hotels-with-view) - [Places to Stay The best family friendly hotels in Paris By Rosalyn Wikeley](https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/family-hotels-paris) - [The best places to stay in Paris: the cutest neighbourhoods from the cobbled streets of lower Marais to up-and-coming Pigalle By Emily Monaco](https://www.cntraveller.com/article/best-neighbourhoods-to-stay-in-paris) - [Places to Stay The best Marbella hotels for 2025 By Sarah Leigh Bannerman](https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/best-marbella-hotels#intcid=recommendations_cnt-row-bottom-recirc-v4_9c117708-745f-45a1-9400-6729fc16cda3_roberta-similarity1_RoBERTaSimilarity1) - [Places to Stay These romantic hotels in France feel straight out of a fairytale By Lauren Burvill](https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/romantic-hotels-france#intcid=recommendations_cnt-row-bottom-recirc-v4_9c117708-745f-45a1-9400-6729fc16cda3_roberta-similarity1_RoBERTaSimilarity1) - [Places to Stay The best hotels in Berlin according to our editors By Liz Humphreys](https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/best-hotels-in-berlin#intcid=recommendations_cnt-row-bottom-recirc-v4_9c117708-745f-45a1-9400-6729fc16cda3_roberta-similarity1_RoBERTaSimilarity1) [](https://www.cntraveller.com/) More from Condé Nast Traveller - [About Condé Nast Traveller](https://www.cntraveller.com/info/about-us) - [Newsletters](https://www.cntraveller.com/newsletter) - [Subscribe](https://www.cntraveller.com/subscribe) - [Competitions](https://www.cntraveller.com/topic/competitions) Contact - [Contact Us](https://www.cntraveller.com/article/contact-us) - [Careers](https://www.condenast.com/careers) - [Privacy notice and cookie statement](https://www.condenast.com/privacy-pages/uk/privacy) - [Code of Conduct](https://www.condenast.com/privacy-pages/uk/code-of-conduct) - [Terms & conditions](https://www.condenast.com/privacy-pages/uk/terms) - [Editorial Complaints Policy](https://www.condenast.com/privacy-pages/uk/complaints/policy) - [Site Map](https://www.cntraveller.com/sitemap) © Condé Nast Britain 2026. ###### Select international site Britain - [India](https://www.cntraveller.in/) - [Spain](https://www.traveler.es/) - [United States](https://www.cntraveler.com/) - [Middle East](https://www.cntravellerme.com/) - [Germany](https://www.cntraveller.de/)

For me, there's always been good reason to research some of the cheapest, nicest [hotels in Paris](https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/paris-hotels). I’ve travelled all around the world with my husband, but he refuses to visit the French capital, despite its obvious allure. His complaint about the City of Light is less about how expensive it is and more about what you get for your money. For the price of a spacious suite with a view in another [European city](https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/cheapest-city-breaks-in-europe), here, this often equates to a shoebox with a pokey bathroom and window overlooking a back alley. There are, of course, some incredible hotels in Paris – among some of the best and most beautiful in the world. To reserve a fairytale room in one of these addresses requires deep pockets – a night at [Cheval Blanc Paris](https://cna.st/affiliate-link/RxYrVJ2FDJxYwbfKFmF5RZkp1vJbVBUU3UAH9B4qmnazJQRkpztGdJK1QTXkVtuyLzjFsAvaAmWBKjE71pvH8MCQoou2v9gKvmyJMuWbGEF9vkMxmwQEFaKynodpCUWN4kNsJVeT51fCrUrx2ifVFm7aDxT5zh8EiQecvViwUusjgsK5XjVeKRsHahionQbbWtJZvgQDjzKPPScs6ZNoTyDFhjC4LZBSZ5rd8XPrfMPHTZfSxDv8BxiaMwPDEb9TbWhrECdceHpKWRCgCBWgDawvKiLfSgg1v7iFdURtJfhVDDQZkxYajv2KBxNiCz) can reach into the thousands. Between the extraordinarily lavish and the woefully average, however, there are a handful of affordable gems. These are our favourite reasonably priced, smart hotels in Paris with room rates under £200 a night. Comfortable, stylish and well positioned, a stay in one of our recommendations will ensure you're left with spending money to enjoy the [best restaurants in Paris](https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/best-restaurants-paris) and perhaps come home with a souvenir, too. - [The Hoxton Paris, 2nd arrondissement](https://www.cntraveller.com/hotels/paris/the-hoxton-paris-hotel-review) Set inside an 18th-century townhouse in the 2nd arrondissement, The Hoxton is the Shoreditch-born brand’s Parisian outpost, and it’s as stylish and hipster-chic as you’d expect. The 172 rooms are spread across four floors, with herringbone floors, brass details and vintage telephones that nod to mid-century cool. Categories run from the petite Shoebox to the spacious Biggy, but all share the same pared-back, quietly confident design. Downstairs, the mood is lively: Rivie, the all-day brasserie, opens onto a plant-filled courtyard that hums from breakfast to late-night cocktails, while Jacques’ Bar upstairs is a sultry hideaway for nightcaps. The buzzy ground floor is filled with Parisians on laptops by day and a fashionable crowd by night, cementing The Hoxton’s role as more than a hotel - it’s an ultra-cool neighbourhood hangout. *Anita Bhagwandas* **Prices:** Rooms start from around £200 per night [Read Full Review](https://www.cntraveller.com/hotels/paris/the-hoxton-paris-hotel-review) - [Boudoir des Muses, 3rd arrondissement](https://www.cntraveller.com/hotels/paris/boudoir-des-muses) There’s a definitive vibe to Boudoir de Muses – one that’s romantic in an overt way, and unashamed of its provocative nature. Originally built in the 18th century, initially, it was home to a theatre whereby its actresses were renowned for having – shall we say – ‘loose morals’. But in a surprising turn of events it later became a convent. Now, association with its past is intended to be a respectful reflection of its history. We stayed in a suite which was beautifully spacious compared to Parisian boutique stays I’ve had in the past. As with most of the smaller Parisian hotels, all the food and drink action happens in the same place – the property’s entrance is designed to be a comfortable lounge, bar and breakfast area. Pink and green velvet chairs frame gold-trimmed tables and, looking down from the higher floors of the building, you can see they’ve been arranged in the shape of a cross. At night, cocktails and tapas are served to accompany live DJ sets that last well into the evening. Underground, bookable private baths are available to hotel and external guests, as are a calendar of events: cabaret shows, tarot reading, self confidence workshops and guided meditations. *Sarah Bannerman* **Prices:** Rooms from around £200 per night. [Read Full Review](https://www.cntraveller.com/hotels/paris/boudoir-des-muses) - [Hotel Rochechouart, 9th Arrondissement](https://www.cntraveller.com/hotels/paris/hotel-rochechouart-paris-review) Strolling through the Pigalle neighbourhood and into this eight-storey Art Deco relic, there’s a distinct sense of a time when the Twenties roared. A late-night hotspot on boulevard Marguerite de Rochechouart, the hotel’s Jazz Age incarnation drew in travelling artists, intellectuals and a smattering of stars. It’s now part of Orso, a new collection of hotels run by industry veterans Louis and Anouk Solanet (also behind Hotel Wallace below), and the sultry theatrics of the era make a welcome comeback. The couple teamed up with Charlotte de Tonnac and Hugo Sauzay of Festen Architecture to revive the building’s legacy with modern touches. Some of the finest original details were restored, from the Thirties blue mosaic floor in the restaurant to the marble staircase and glass lift. Upstairs, 106 rooms were given an autumnal, woody touch with shades of bronze, ochre and terracotta. Decorative details, from the burl-wood headboards to the curved armchairs and alabaster suspension lamps, thoughtfully whisk guests to another time. The Sacré-Coeur looms large from northern-facing bedroom windows (and in some cases, balconies) but is visible to all from the rooftop bar. On the ground floor, an old-world brasserie with plush banquettes serves up comforting Parisian classics, from chicken-liver pâté to roasted pork belly with crisp *frites* and the signature crêpe cake – a family recipe guests invariably try to coax out of the staff. One floor underground, the old Mikado club of the 1920s has returned as a dimly-lit speakeasy, where a trendy set sip cocktails on plush velvet sofas while a DJ spins electric beats in the corner. Next door, blue-hued Citrons et Huîtres is where locals perch at red metal tables on the pavement, throwing back fresh oysters from Brittany and chilled Champagne. *Jessica Rach* **Price:** Rooms from around £120 per night [Read Full Review](https://www.cntraveller.com/hotels/paris/hotel-rochechouart-paris-review) - [Hôtel de La Boétie, 8th arrondissement](https://www.cntraveller.com/hotels/hotel-de-la-boetie-paris) Minutes from the Champs-Élysées, Hôtel de La Boétie's right bank address is far from chi-chi. It's plotted on an unassuming street which ultimately leads you onto a plethora of luxury stores. The 8th arrondissement is, after all, best known for its [shopping](https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/best-shopping-in-paris). But there's more to this charismatic property than its location. Interiors are curated by [London](https://www.cntraveller.com/topic/london)\-based Swedish designer Beata Heuman who experiments with colour, texture and shape to make each corner of the property a visual delight. Handwoven tapestry headboards hang above pink sheets, which contrast glossy, forest-green bathroom tiles. It's a well-curated mix that leaves a lasting impression. Rooms are relatively small, the bar stocks a concise selection of drinks for those stopping in on route to dinner plans, and breakfast is a casual continental affair - all traits well-suited to a busy city agenda. **Price:** Rooms from around £180 per night [Read Full Review](https://www.cntraveller.com/hotels/hotel-de-la-boetie-paris)
