Note: This hotel is presently undergoing renovations, though it is still open. As of Winter 2006/2007, some of the rooms have been updated with new paint, carpaits, curtains, and bedspreads; others have not. We will be sure to visit the hotel again once completed and give you the full scoop.
----------------------------------------
Located along the fabulously named rue des Mauvais Garçons, across from the Hôtel de Ville, the Grand Hôtel du Loiret is classic Paris on the cheap.
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 and we left it at that.
So, imagine our surprise when, on our most recent visit, we found that the Loiret had added an elevator! Not only that, they added some swanky modern décor to the lobby, giving the entrance a new life. Upstairs, however, the rooms are largely unchanged. Some new ho-hum pieces of furniture have been added, but the rooms could still use some fresh wallpaper and splashes of new paint.
But man, these prices are cheap!
