Central, clean, and cheap, this no-frills hotel on the edge of the Marais is perfect for anyone just looking for a safe and cheap sleep. Its faded Belle Époque decor of old chandeliers and faded gold trimming may be charming, shabby or "naff" (as the Brits would say), depending on your point of view, but there's an elevator, and each room has TV and telephone for those with the inclination to use them. You're well-situated for enjoying the Marais and East Paris nightlife, and could easily walk to Notre-Dame in 15 minutes.

59 rooms, no a/c. Doubles from €70.
