print this pageLocated across from the Hôtel de Ville (Paris' city hall), the two-star Grand Hôtel du Loiret is classic Paris on the cheap. It offers some of the least expensive double rooms in the Marais.
When we first visited the Loiret a couple of years ago, we were amazed by the cheap prices and satisfied by the comfortable, albeit modest, rooms. We figured that the low rates were due to the hotel's lack of elevator.
Upstairs, the hotel's 27 rooms are quite pleasing, with parquet floors, simple chairs and desks, and flat-screen TVs. Walls are sponge-painted pale blue, yellow, or pink. Baths have big white tiles and tub/shower combos. Seven "economy" singles are a bit cheaper and are outfitted with older carpets and furnishings, and share toilets and showers.
All rooms at the Loiret face the street (the fabulously named rue des Mauvais Garcons), and are equipped with double-paned windows for sound-proofing.

Stretching from Châtelet to the Place de la Bastille, and from République to the Seine, the Marais is the trendiest neighborhood on our list. Its narrow, winding streets are full of funky boutiques, hip bars, and tiny bistros. The Marais is home to the city's historic Jewish quarter and is the center of gay Parisian life. Many of its 17th-century mansions house museums and cultural centers, making this neighborhood very popular for locals and visitors alike. It’s a safe and lively area for nightlife, particularly around the Rue du Vieille du Temple.
The increasing number of contemporary art galleries and avant-garde fashion boutiques in the Marais has fueled increases in hotel rates over the past decade. Nonetheless, there are bargains to be found along the quieter side streets, where visitors will find the exposed wooden beams and bonsai-sized rooms also on offer in Latin Quarter hotels.
