Editor’s Note:

Hôtel Eiffel Turenne is no longer a EuroCheapo Editor’s pick. In our most recent research and rate testing, we found average rates were averaging $281 a night, which is well outside of our Cheapo budgets.

Our original review of this hotel is posted below, if you’re just curious or in the market to splurge.

Original Review:

A boutique hotel just a short walk from the Eiffel Tower, the Hotel Eiffel Turenne offers renovated boutique rooms with perks like air conditioning and Wi-Fi. Depending on when you book, you can find reasonable rates, but it may be a bit too fancy for some Cheapos.

The three-star Hotel Eiffel Turenne (formerly called Hotel de Turenne) is another example of the recent trend of budget-friendly hotels going boutique in Paris. For years, it was one of our go-to Eiffel Tower picks.

Recently, a new management team redid the joint with stylish carpets, beds, furnishing, and sparkling bathrooms. The look got an overhaul, too, with the “simple Formica furnishings” of yore giving way to slick modern pieces, snazzy striped wallpaper, framed prints, and chic what-nots. Don't get us wrong—it's fabulous. It's just much more expensive now, too.

All 34 rooms are equipped with flat-screen TV, telephone, safe and air conditioning. Free Wi-Fi works throughout the hotel.

As is always the case in this situation, the rates spiked with the renovations. Rooms that were €82 are now about €282. However, in doing several searches, we were able to find some lower rates available at the last minute and in the offseason. This is worth exploring if the price is right.

A continental breakfast is served for an additional fee. The Metro station École Militaire is a two-minute walk from the front door.

Location: Central

3.3km to city center

Main attractions: Many of the surrounding streets offer up storybook views of the Eiffel Tower, still the tallest building in Paris. Another striking monument is the 18-carat-gold dome of the Invalides, that glimmers along the Seine's left bank, just east of the Eiffel Tower. Commissioned by Louis XIV as a hospital for wounded soldiers, the massive, structure was transformed after the revolution by Napoleon into a monument to himself. It currently houses an impressive military museum and Napoleon's famous tomb.

Notable museums include the Musée d'Orsay, the Musée Rodin and the Musée du Quai Branly. And the 7th has a well-established American presence, home to the American University, the American Library and the American Church.

Neighborhood atmosphere: The 7th also is home to many imposing palaces turned government buildings and embassies, lending it a stately feeling with an old-world, slightly bourgeois Parisian vibe.

Affordability: Like neighboring St. Germain des Prés, the 7th is an upscale residential neighborhood with expensive shopping and dining including Le Bon Marché department store and food hall on the rue de Sèvres. The rue Saint Dominique is one of the city’s most concentrated dining hubs with reasonably priced classic bistros (Obama famously dined at La Fontaine de Mars at #29) and more upscale establishments like Brasserie Thoumieux. The nearby market street rue Cler has food shopping and unremarkable but reasonably priced cafés.

Stay Here If: You’re traveling with older relatives who will enjoy being in a calm central neighborhood with close proximity to the Eiffel Tower.

Stay Elsewhere If: You are looking for wild nightlife or a trendy atmosphere.
