Hotel StanislasEditor's Pick

Reviewed by EuroCheapo.com Editors email this page

A good choice for no-frills budget travelers, the friendly two-star Hotel Stanislas rests between the Luxembourg Gardens and the Montparnasse Tower. The signed concert posters lining the lobby date back at least 15 years, as do, we believe, the hotel’s most recent major renovations.

The hotel’s 18 rooms are simply decorated with old-fashioned wallpaper and blue curtains, and furnished with a bed, telephone and TV. Private bathrooms (in all rooms) are equipped with a shower and hair dryer. Wi-Fi is provided for free throughout the hotel.

The cheap double room rates make this an appealing choice for couples or duos who don’t mind sharing a bed (two-bed twin rooms raise the rate by more than €10!).
Young guests might enjoy the active student life in the quarter. At 4 p.m., students from several schools pour onto sidewalks to smoke cigarettes and hang out in the cafés.

If you find the countless cafés in the quarter expensive, opt for the cheap pints and espressos at the hotel’s retro-perfect “P’tit Stan” bar downstairs.

Note: Breakfast is offered for €6. The hotel does not have an elevator.
