Cheap hotels in Republique
EuroCheapo's Guide to Cheap Hotels in Paris
Neighborhood Description
Situated at the intersection of the 3rd, 10th and 11th arrondissements, Place de la Republique is a bustling, sometimes manic, place. Cars wiz around the giant arched monument and tourists arrive (or transfer) from all directions. This area is convenient, though not bursting with tourist attractions.
The neighborhood spanning from Republique north to the Gare du Nord and Gare de l'Est is likewise busy by day and filled with budget hotel options. Like nearby Grand Boulevards, this area doesn't go out of its way to charm and certain parts can be sketchy at night. But the sheer number of low-priced hotels and easy train and pedestrian access can make it an attractive option.
