Hôtel de Nesle

Such a quirky quaint hotel in the center of Paris close to the Latin quarter across from Point Neuf.
Good rates compared to the pricer alternatives closely.
No breakfast but you can get a nice espresso in the lobby which is full of curios.
Free wifi, good restaurants down the street.
Crusty old lady (what else in Paris?) manages the establishment with the help of some English speaking assistants.
We got a nice room with seperate bathroom commode sink with second sink in bedroom, clean sheets and floor.
I would stay here again!

My first stay at Hôtel de Nesle was in 1988 when it was still a cheap backpacker’s place featured in one of Rick Steves’ first «Europe Through the Back Doors» guides. They have evolved with the times. I have stayed there three more times since then (most recently in May 2014) and wouldn’t consider it a trip to Paris without staying there.
No breakfast, but there’s a great café at the corner and loads of others in the neighborhood. This is one of the lowest priced hotels in the center of Paris, and doesn’t sacrifice anything for the low price. It’s super charming, old fashioned (that is, *not* a soulless sharp-​edged corporate style) and also clean and has free wifi.
Typical Parisian stairs and no lift, so not ideal for those with physical challenges, but otherwise a wide range of pricing depending on floor level, rooms with or without bathrooms, etc. I’d recommend just getting a room with a sink and using a hall toilet and shower: perfectly clean, never a wait, and much cheaper.
Owner or other staff is generally in reception throughout the day and speaks enough English if you don’t speak French. Be sure to confirm reservation a few weeks before arrival in case there was any miscommunication; I recommend this for any hotel; not just Hôtel de Nesle.
LOVE THIS PLACE!

Mein Geheimtipp für Paris zu zweit.

Utterly mad and charming little hotel tucked away in a quiet backstreet of a great Parisian neighbourhood. The hotel is run by a couple who seemed very happy with our attempt at pidgin French for communication, and were very patient!
The rooms are indivdually and quirkily styled and priced in a sliding scale depending on how much space you want and whether you’re happy to share a bathroom etc. We were quite taken by a lovely African/​safari themed room, but instead opted for the cosier and cheaper room up an extra flight of steep stairs, which had a rustic, country theme cue dried flowers hanging from beams. It was really well heated and incredibly comfortable, although the bathroom could have done with a bit of sprucing up.
There is no breakfast on offer here, but in Paris you really don’t need it. Nearby was great for exploring St Germain and all along the Seine, where restaurants and shops are plentiful.
With Paris being generally very expensive, I’d recommend this modest hotel as a great place to stop if you’re on a limited budget, and want to spend the majority of your cash on good nights out.

La clientèle est en majorité anglo-​saxonne. Le personnel est très charmant et de bonne humeur.
C’est un hôtel de charme dont les chambres sont décorées autour de la vie de certaines personnalités du quartier.
Par contre, il faut réserver très tôt car il y a de nombreux problèmes de réservation. Il faut réserver soit par téléphone soit par mail.
Le coin est calme et vous pouvez profiter du jardin intérieur et de la terrasse pour vous relaxer !

Charmant et pratique
Un petit hôtel sympa, pas du tout cher, situé entre le Pont Neuf et Saint Germain, idéal pour profiter pleinement du temps passé à Paris: le quartier abrite plein de restos, de crêperies, de bars, de cinés, de librairies et de boutiques… c’est très charmant et surtout très pratique.

Une adresse miraculeuse
Les chambes sont décorées selon un theme bien précis. c’est super beau. allez dans la campagnarde ou l’oriental c’est très chouette. avant de prendre une chambre demandez de les visiter vous né serez pas decu.magnifique.le jardin est splendide et tout cela au coeur du quartier latin… en plus c’est pas cher. franchement le TOP

Sleeping at the theatre?
The walls are painted with theatrical designs/​caricatures in each room and some don’t have showers in them so choose carefully! However, bare in mind that this hotel takes no reservations in advance and it’s a first come first service basis.
