Check Rates for Hippodrome Montmartre
email this page
print this pageThe two-star Hippodrome is located on a quiet street off the bustling Boulevard de Clichy, a short walk from the Moulin Rouge and convenient to Montmartre and Pigalle. It's a friendly place close to good transportation links.
Renovations were last completed in 1997 but the 22 rooms are still fresh and lively. The color red dominates the bedspreads, curtains and carpets—a reminder of the proximity of Pigalle and its famous dance halls and cabarets. All rooms have hair-dryers, cable television, and telephones.
Breakfast is served in a room off the reception area which doubles as a lounge complete with television and bookshelves carrying guides, magazines, and newspapers.

Overlooking Paris, Montmartre's winding streets have inspired generations of starving artists and bohemians. That charm now co-exists with a theme park of the original village, centered on the Place du Tertre, complete with postcard touts, tourist-ready restaurants and bars, and "artists" offering to sketch your portrait or sell you their lurid oil paintings.
Happily, other parts of Montmartre still resemble country hamlets, replete with ivy-clad cottages and cobbled squares. Take a walk along the lovely rue des Saules to see the tiny vineyard and the legendary restaurant-cabaret Au Lapin Agile, the headquarters of the arty crowd circa 1900, where Picasso paid for a meal with one of the Harlequin paintings. Place des Abbesses has a picturesque square and leads onto the rue des Abbesses and its lively eating and drinking scene. To get the best out of Montmartre, be prepared to do a lot of walking.
