Gotty Opera Hotel, Paris

Advantages: many things
Disadvantages: nothing

...Well, I was two times in Paris and i have heard that « les Parisiens » do not want to live in Paris, because of the stress and the more or less pollution. But I do not support this decision. Well, before I write something about Paris I tell you how you can travel to Paris in the best way. The best way to reach Paris is to go with an aeroplane or with the bus on account of the price (if you do not choose the first class to travel). Nevertheless, the comfort is not the best. With the car is too complicated, because it is too long and your car can be destroyed in Paris or it can be stolen. When you arrive the capital of France I propose you the street “rue des petites hotels”, on account of the many economic hotels with one or two stars. These hotels are not luxurious and their building is not the best, but they surprisingly... Read review

...11 BIS RUE DE MAZAGRAN , Paris This Hotel is rated as 3* according to the 2004 review. However, having stayed in Paris many times, we were well aware when we booked that the number of stars advertised by a hotel often doesn't mean a lot. Never take En Suite for granted, for instance, is rule number 1 when staying on the continent (we've learnt the hard way!!) However, this hotel definately deserved its 3 stars, and would fit the bill of a 3 star hotel in the UK. We stayed at the Regina Opera for 2 nights in February 2004. The hotel is located in the 10th Arrondissement in an easily accessible location. It's off the main street so it's not too noisy at night, in an area that seems to have a large number of Turkish residents and restaurants. Back on the main road, however, are a wide variety of bars, clubs and restaurants to take your... Read review

Disadvantages: Pricy area for food and drinks

...I had not been to Paris for many years but as this year was the year of my Girlfriends 18th I thought id take her away for a romantic weekend. I got all the city brochure books as you do and eventually settled on wanting to go back to Paris. The hotel I picked was the Hotel Bedford which is to be found just of the Place de la Concorde (excuse the spelling). The booking was made via Lunn Poly and for a double room the price was £120 a night which I thought very reasonable for a 4* deluxe hotel in the heart of Paris. This price included breakfast but no other meals although there are evening meals in the hotel should you not wish to dine out. We arrived in Paris very early (8.00 ish as we got the earliest flight out to avoid missing most of the day). We jumped on a bus at CDG airport and were in the centre of Paris within half an hour...
