Paris for less than €150 a night: 10 ultra-stylish boutique hotels for insiders

Paris for less than €150 a night: 10 ultra-stylish boutique hotels for insiders

You've been told for a long time that Paris is unaffordable. It's true - if you look hard enough. For less than 150 euros a night, ten stylish and confidential boutique-hotels prove that good taste is not a matter of budget in one of Europe's most expensive cities.

Pierre Gautrand ·

in Paris, finding a nugget for less than €150 requires flair: you often have to get off the beaten track (the Golden Triangle or the Marais) to invest in booming neighborhoods. Here are 10 ultra-stylish boutique-hotels, selected for their extra soul, cutting-edge design and excellent value for money.

Hôtel Monsieur Aristide (18th arrondissement)

With furniture sourced from the Puces de Saint-Ouen, a secret inner garden and the atmosphere of a bohemian family home, Monsieur Aristide cultivates a disarming elegance, far removed from the selfie-sticks of Place du Tertre, yet just a stone's throw away. The 4-star boutique hotel (to be completely renovated in 2021) houses 25 rooms and suites, decorated by architect Marion Collard, paying homage to the the décor, designed by architect Marion Collard, pays homage to the Belle Époque, with floral prints and touches of bamboo and rattan - all in an unabashedly bohemian spirit. Each room has its own identity: concrete floors, natural linen bedding, working dial telephones. No spa, but the bar is operated in partnership with Little Red Door, a Parisian cocktail institution. An eco-responsible address right down to the restaurant's terrazzo, cast from demolition rubble.

Hôtel Henriette (13th arrondissement)

Opened in 2015 on a small cobbled street near the Mouffetard district, Hôtel Henriette has been completely redesigned by Vanessa Scoffier, fashion journalist turned decorator and owner of the premises. An unconditional china enthusiast, she spent 15 months scouring Parisian flea markets to furnish the 32 rooms with pieces from different styles and eras. Platner chairs, Guariche tables, Kvadrat textiles: nothing is staged, everything is lived-in. No on-site spa, but a light-filled winter garden and flower-filled patio are well worth a rejuvenating treatment. The address remains one of the most affordable in its category, with doubles from €139.

  • Where? 9 rue des Gobelins, 75013 Paris
  • Price: double room from €139

Hôtel Bienvenue (9th)

The third hotel in Adrien Gloaguen's Touriste group, the Bienvenue showcases the spirit of an English country house, designed by architect Chloé Nègre, a former collaborator of India Mahdavi. Its 38 rooms, spread over 5 floors, play both the graphic and the Parisian country card, with monochrome pastel tones varying according to floor: nude pink, water green, storm blue, pearl grey. No spa, but a line of Diptyque toiletries, and a tea time that perfumes the lobby. A heart of the neighborhood, a hidden courtyard: the address that alone justifies staying in South Pigalle.

  • Where? 23 rue Buffault, 75009 Paris
  • Price: double room from €120

Hôtel La Nouvelle République (11th)

Between République and Oberkampf, this pocket hotel understood before anyone else that style is not a question of price. With 30 rooms - ranging in size from 10 to 20 m², some with private terraces overlooking the inner courtyard - this 3-star hotel boasts an assertive vintage style, and even has a room entirely filled with vinyl records from the 90s. The real surprise is in the basement: a privatized hammam and massage sessions complete a wellness offer rare at this price level. The homemade vegetarian breakfast is considered one of the best in its category. The icing on the cake? The hotel has been awarded the Clef Verte label for two consecutive years.

  • Where? 9 Rue Jean-Pierre Timbaud, 75011 Paris
  • Price: double room from €115

Hôtel Dalila (18th)

Here, architect Giovanna de Bosredon (AUGURI Studio) signs her very first solo hotel, rethinking the seven floors and 49 rooms by blurring the boundaries between inside and outside. The palette - earthy greens, deep reds, bright oranges - pays homage to the colors of Montmartre: the green of the squares, the burgundy of the vines, the orange of the Lapin Agile. Metal bedside tables reminiscent of garden furniture, trellised headboards, a long zinc bistro bar: everything sounds Parisian without ever overdoing it. No spa, but a popular coworking space under a glass roof. Nestled between the Puces de Saint-Ouen and Place Jules Joffrin, Dalila is already the up-and-coming address for the creative north.

  • Where? 120 rue Ordener, 75018 Paris
  • Price: double room from €110

Hôtel Les Deux Gares (10th)

This 4-star hotel, also designed by Adrien Gloaguen (Touriste Group), has 40 rooms adorned with vibrant colors, Art Deco furniture and posters by Andy Warhol or David Hockney. Luke Edward Hall designed every detail, right down to the lampshades printed with his own illustrations. In the basement, a fitness room with floral walls and checkerboard tiling is complemented by a hammam, a massage room and a small swimming pool. This is the first hotel project for the English designer, who drew on the films of the 1960s-70s and the Saint-Ouen flea market to compose this universe. Across the street, Café Les Deux Gares is worth a visit in its own right.

  • Where? 2 rue des Deux Gares, 75010 Paris

Mama Shelter East (20th)

mama Shelter invented a format. Ten years on, no one has really succeeded in copying it. The 170 rooms, recently renovated and designed by Philippe Starck, are equipped with 49" Smart TVs offering free VOD and five-star bedding. Activist architect Roland Castro discovered the place - formerly a garage - before Starck put his stamp on it. No traditional spa, but a permanent club atmosphere: bar, DJ sets, summer rooftop, table soccer on the first floor and a Sunday brunch reputed to be one of the best in Paris. Certified Clef Verte, the Mama remains the address that has proved that an accessible hotel can also be a place to live in its own right.

Hôtel Panache (9th)

The fourth Paris hotel by Dorothée Meilichzon, the Panache was inspired by New York's Flatiron Building to exploit this late-19ᵉ corner building: geometric rhythms on the walls, assumed arrows, dazzling mirrors on desks and bedside tables - a modernity slightly tinged with retro parigot. The 40 rooms, including five suites, are spread over seven floors in a palette of navy blue, forest green and anthracite grey, with cane headboards and luminous globes as sconces. No spa, but chef Jean Fares is at the helm of the Liza Panache restaurant, where his Lebanese menu combines tradition and creation - kebbé mechwiyé, shrimps in ossmalié, lamb confit tacos - and a table open to the street that attracts both neighbors and passing customers. Adrien Gloaguen has made his mark here: style, soul and reasonable prices.

  • Where? 1 rue du Faubourg Montmartre, 75009 Paris
  • Price: double room from €120

Hôtel Rosalie (13ᵉ)

just a stone's throw from the Place d'Italie, the Rosalie hides behind an iron gate at the end of a hidden courtyard. This 60-room, 4-star hotel, founded by Joris Bruneel (MyHotels group) and decorated by interior designer Marion Mailaender, spreads over eight floors. William Morris patterned floral carpeting made from recycled fishing nets, cane headboards, vintage armchairs by Gae Aulenti reupholstered in shamrock fabric, sconces in galvanized steel: the decorative vocabulary is coherent, precise and never gratuitous. On the terrace, outdoor furniture by Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec adjoins a six-metre-high hop barn, whose harvest supplies a microbrewery in 11ᵉ. As a bonus, the lofty rooms offer panoramic views of the Eiffel Tower. No spa, but a secret rooftop-garden reserved for guests only, where an old Peugeot 205 abandoned among the plants seems to have been forgotten there - the ultimate nod to the urbex aesthetic that inspires the entire establishment. Clef Verte and Entreprise à Mission certified.

  • Where? 8 bis Avenue de la Sœur Rosalie, 75013 Paris
  • Price: double room from €130

BASSS Hotel (18th)

The Madeho Group is signing the reopening of the BASSS in June 2024, following a renovation by decorating duo Gesa Hansen and Nathalie Visnovsky. The name pays homage to the American graphic designer Saul Bass: highly graphic tiles, geometric headboards, industrial materials - a Scandinavian and Japanese minimalism tinged with the spirit of Montmartre. Its 36 rooms are ideally located close to the Blanche and Abbesses stations, in a rue des Abbesses still untouched by mass tourism. No spa, no restaurant, but a "Goûter" offered every afternoon and rates starting at under €150 for a double room. The hotel is certified Clef Verte.

  • Where? 57 rue des Abbesses, 75018 Paris
  • Price: double room from €125
