EuroCheapo's Guide to Cheap Hotels in Paris
Neighborhood Description
Located to the West of Châtelet, the area surrounding the Louvre museum is an art lover's playground. The quarter boasts grand Haussmann-style boulevards leading to the gold dome of the Opéra and the banks of the Seine. Less residential than other central Parisian neighborhoods, the area around the Louvre is also home to the Bourse, the French stock market exchange. From here tourists are within walking distance of the Place de la Concorde, Champs Elysées, and the Bibliotheque National.
Ultimately, the quarter's biggest draw is the Louvre museum and the Seine-side Jardin de Tuilleries. The neighborhood is also home to the ultra chic rue Saint Honoré and is peaceful and quiet at night. Many quality budget sleeps can be found near the Louvre. Our favorites around these parts are the no-frills double rooms across from the Bourse.
