HOTEL
HÔTEL RIVOLI
washbasin €38/47, s/d/tr with shower €50/61/76; Hôtel de Ville)
The Rivoli remains forever dirt-cheap and cheery, with 20 basic if noisy rooms. The
cheapest share a bathroom, but use of the shower room in the hallway is free. Annoyingly -
given that it is in the heart of the Marais nightlife area - the front door is locked from 2am
to 7am. Find reception on the 1st floor. Breakfast €5.

HÔTEL DE NICE
€100-220, tr €135-240; ; Hôtel de Ville)
This is an especially warm, family-run place with 23 comfy rooms full of Second Empire-
style furniture, Oriental carpets and lamps with fringed shades. Some have balconies high
above busy rue de Rivoli. Breakfast €8.
HOTEL
HÔTEL DU LOIRET
€100/150; Hôtel de Ville or St-Paul)
This 27-room budget hotel on the 'Street of the Bad Boys' in the heart of gay Marais is pop-
ular with young male travellers.
HOTEL
HÔTEL JEANNE D'ARC
€98-120, q €250; ; St-Paul)
About the only thing wrong with this gorgeous address is everyone knows about it; book
well in advance. Games to play, a painted rocking chair for tots in the bijou lounge, knick
knacks everywhere and the most extraordinary mirror in the breakfast room create a real
'family home' air in this 35-room house.
