Hotel du College de FranceEditor's Pick

EuroCheapo Review email this page print this page

The charming Hotel du College de France has a great location in the Latin Quarter. As the name implies, it's just down the street from the Collège de France. Not surprisingly, the two-star hotel is popular with visiting professors and other studious types.

Upstairs, the 29 rooms are simple and homey, sporting functional wardrobes and desks, and matching drapes and bedspreads. There are a few modern touches, such as small flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi access throughout. Black-and-white photos hang in the rooms and hallways. We suggest asking for one of the corner rooms, which have two street-side windows that provide smart views of the street and the college.

Bathrooms are a bit dated, although they are clean and equipped with hair dryers.

The hotel has a pleasantly sleepy, country guesthouse feel, although the lobby has a few eclectic surprises (including a cool life-size sculpture of Jeanne d'Arc).

Hungry guests can buy snacks and drinks at the reception. Breakfast is available for €10.
