Hotel du Champ de Mars

Located near the iconic Eiffel Tower, the two-star Hôtel du Champ de Mars offers basic but comfortable rooms—with a touch of “fancy frou-frou”—at affordable rates.

Quick read

Pros: Cheerfully decorated rooms and common areas. Large, well-equipped bathrooms.
Cons: Tiny rooms. Difficult online booking: best to call for reservations.

Rooms

The 25 pleasantly decorated rooms at the Hotel du Champ de Mars are dressed in warm hues that reminded us of the lavender, sunflowers and breezy blue skies of Provence. Floral, checkered and striped linens all play nicely with the matching headboards and wallpaper. (We especially liked the monkey-flower pattern!)

All rooms have a telephone, television and free Wi-Fi. There’s no air conditioning, but fans are available. Goldilocks Alert: The rooms are on the petite side, even for France, so if room size matters, you might book elsewhere (or just grin and bear it).

Bathrooms, on the other hand, are larger than most, all equipped with shower/bathtub combos.

Hotel facilities

Both the lobby and breakfast room, which are decked out in potted plants, plush violet chairs and vibrant green drapes, flaunt the hotel’s sunny ambiance and cheerful demeanor. Breakfast is available for €8.

Note: To avoid confusion about room reservations, we recommend calling the Champ de Mars instead of e-mailing.
