Hôtel Les Deux Gares

Where to Stay in Paris: The Best Affordable Hotels

"A kaleidoscopic, Luke Edward Hall–designed hotel situated between Gare du Nord and Gare de l'Est, characterized by vibrant striped headboards, tiled bathrooms, flea-market finds, and fringed sofas. It’s an excellent base for exploring Canal Saint-Martin and the city’s natural wine scene, with an in-house restaurant, Café Les Deux Gares, known for a noteworthy wine list. The property emphasizes bold, playful design over accessibility and offers very affordable starting rates (from about $115)." - Sophie Dodd Sophie Dodd Sophie Dodd is a travel, wine and lifestyle writer.  Travel + Leisure Editorial Guidelines
