We knew very well that a good place in Paris would cost good money. And this hotel is very loyal for the price, everything here is very modest. In Paris, the flavor is such that no matter where you live, and most importantly the atmosphere. The streets at this time are empty, there are few people, and the weather was generally excellent.

We found a holiday: Independence Day, when museums work for free. The hotel is 2*. English-speaking staff, friendly, offered a wide range of maps, guides to Paris. Breakfast was not varied: juice, croissant, piece of baguette, jam, butter, tea/coffee. The room has old furniture, a mini-fridge, plumbing is leaking.

At our request, a hair dryer, glasses and clothes hangers were provided. The windows overlooked the street, so during the day until late in the evening it is noisy. A plus is the proximity of the hotel to the historical center of Paris, the metro station. There were no mice or bed bugs, which was great.

We have been going to Paris for a long time. The selection of the hotel lasted a long time, the travel agency offered, we agreed, but the holidays were approaching and the hotels did not give confirmation. As time went. The visa could be opened only if there was a confirmation from the hotel. The tour operator raised prices for the next row of hotels.

We have been going to Paris for a long time. The selection of the hotel lasted a long time, the travel agency offered, we agreed, but the holidays were approaching and the hotels did not give confirmation. As time went. The visa could be opened only if there was a confirmation from the hotel. The tour operator raised prices for the next row of hotels. . As a result, I agreed to the last option offered by the Bordeaux hotel, without even looking at the reviews about it first. I didn’t look, not out of laziness, but simply fell ill with the flu and was somehow not up to it. When "hands reached" and I read about him, the reviews, I will say frankly, "strained", but there was nothing to be done. . . Confirmation came, documents "went" for a visa. We flew to Paris with a transfer in Frankfurt. They chose the Lufthansa airline, only because it was not ours (I'm afraid of old planes). Upon arrival in Frankkrt, a neighbor in the seat on the plane warned us to immediately look at the entrance to the airport at a huge screen where our flight to Paris would be indicated. Indeed, on a huge screen, we hardly found our flight and terminal number. Then they stood in line at customs. Because of the small iron ornaments on my boots, I was rozuli and searched. Crap. Not pleasant and even disgusting. Then we stood in line together with the Chinese, Africans and CIS citizens in a separate queue for passport control. There were about 15 minutes left before boarding the plane. At the speed of a wounded elephant, we rushed from the desired terminal. And it should be noted that the airport in Frankfurt is the largest in the world. It's not just big, it's HUGE. Fortunately, our things flew to Paris without issuing them to us in Frankfurt. About 5 minutes before the end of the landing, we jumped into a half-empty plane and flew to the capital of the world. On the way, we were also fed with a bourgeois sandwich, which was by the way. Paris greeted us with rain. We flew to Charles de Gaulle at terminal 1. We had to look for an airport bus to get to the second terminal and take the RER there, which stopped somewhere close to the hotel. To be honest, I didn’t want to, but money for a taxi (somewhere around 50-60 euros, as people wrote on the net) was a pity. On the way to the baggage claim, I "tracked" two women who flew with us from the Motherland. Turning to them, I found out that they had called a taxi at home for 55 euros. Of course, we "got on their tail. " We were met by a Russian-speaking guy with a sign, fellow travelers informed him about the expansion of the contingent wishing to get to Paris. He somehow reacted infantile. Our mistake was that we did not negotiate the price. This had to be done right away. As a result, he first drove fellow travelers and said that they charged 55 euros, and 35 euros from us. The girls were indignant, but somehow unconvincingly, apparently. He took 50 euros from them and 40 from us. The boy earned. The Bordeaux Hotel ended up at 100 Rue Fabour San Denis, which is practically in the center of Paris, between Montmartre and the opera. The hotel is in an old building and has classic cast iron bars under the edge of the window. The hotel has only 25 rooms (as stated on its website). The hotel is small. We were greeted cordially, though we ourselves pulled the suitcases to the room. We got a triple room on the third floor. Downstairs at the reception, I noticed the prices. Our room cost 80 euros per day, of course, the travel company "ripped off" us much more. The room is normal. The room is about 14-16 square meters. m. Old furniture, single frames on the windows, minibar, small plasma on the wall with 40 channels in French. Toilet with bathtub, sink. Soap and shampoo sachets. Cleaned up every day. True, I did not understand why the cleaning lady always threw out the unpacked soap and gave us a new one. The room was cleaned every day, towels changed. The linen is normal, the towels are clean without stains (which is nice). The windows of our room overlooked the street. We flew in on Saturday and the night from Saturday to Sunday I could not sleep because of the noise in the street. Either it was a football match, or people didn’t want to sleep, but the noise was such that it seemed that people were yelling over their ears. I was even upset, because I thought that I would not be able to stand here without sleep for a week. But it turned out that this was an isolated case. In the morning I woke up from the singing of some lonely bird and the noise of a car cleaning the street. Breakfast at the hotel from 7:30 to 10:00. For breakfast, a glass of orange juice, a croissant (where would you go without it), a piece of baguette, butter, marmalade and a choice of coffee, chocolate or tea. They brought a lot of coffee - a coffee pot with coffee and a coffee pot with milk, we all couldn’t even drink. It turned out somewhere around 2.5-3 large cups. I drank coffee with milk all the time, and my daughter drank both tea and hot chocolate (it turned out to be the "Nesquik" familiar to us). Everything is tasty and satisfying (however strange for me, a lover of a hearty breakfast with meat). Due to the abundance of drinking at the table, I took the juice with me, pouring it into my thermos. In the room, we used the boiler we took with us, heating water in a jar and making mivina and tea for dinner in the evenings. Our neighbors somehow laughed a lot, talking about their room, the windows of which overlook the courtyard-well. It was said that it was dark and that the view from the window to the wall was very "picturesque". We didn't see it ourselves. As I already wrote, the hotel is located in the center. If you leave the hotel and go immediately to the left, at the end (as it turned out later, this is the middle) of the street, you can see an old arch - some king built it to the glory of his beloved, turn right in front of the arch and go to the Strasbourg-Saint-Denis metro station or walk to the Opera. We walked to the opera on foot very slowly, looking at the windows and the road took us about half an hour, maybe a little more. If you go to the right (when leaving the hotel), then the Vostoyny station will be close, and a little further - the Sevrny station. Commuter trains go from them, and RER goes to Severny. To the East Station, focus on McDonald's, along this street 50 meters and there will be a station. North - without turning along a wide street (name like Mariengo) somewhere in 400-500 meters from the East (but my eye is bad, I can be wrong)))). We mostly walked, but we also mastered the metro. We immediately bought a carne for 13 euros with a penny, and when we got tired of walking, we went down to the subway and drove. At the hotel downstairs at the reception you can take a map of the city. There and the plan of the subway and RER. Very comfortably. We went everywhere with this map, so we never got lost. Being a shopaholic, I read a lot of information about sales. People advised the sale village (near Disneyland) and boutiques on Alasia Street (Alasia metro station). What can I say. I was in the sale village last year. Yes, brands "leak" unsold goods there, but still - it's expensive and there's not much to see. Behind the village of sales is a large shopping center, where you can "break away". We went to Alasia street. There really are a dozen small stock stores, but so that "ah", so no. We bought something, but this is not shopping, but so. . . We "looked around" in Europe's largest shopping center in Dé fense (RER station or Dé fense metro station). We didn't know about him. We went to Dé fense to see the city from the observation deck of the third modern arch, but unfortunately they were not allowed there for 3 weeks. Then we paid attention to the name of the branded store, went in "for a minute", left in the evening with sacks and a suitcase that we had to buy.... Shopping center - fly away. The field is not plowed. We passed only 4-5 shops, and there they are.................It's good that the money ran out))). By the way, when traveling by metro, the ticket price does not change, but the RER is divided into zones. And to get to Defense on the RER you need to pay somewhere around 9 euros, but we drove to the same Defense for 1.3 euros by metro.

From the pros - near the metro, to the Island of the City on foot 30 minutes, cheap. Tiny rooms, poor breakfast and ancient furniture - not a problem, as expected from a hotel of this class. Really terrible - we had bed bugs in our room and it totally ruined the holiday! Mice, in my opinion, also rustled at night, although I didn’t see them with my own eyes, and the bugs brazenly ran across the blanket !! ! And biting!! !.

The four of us went to Paris for a week (July 2011), stayed at the Bordeaux Hotel, 2 stars. This hotel was recommended to us by the Caryatida company as more or less economical. . . Well, what can I say? Breakfast is modest: coffee, tea, milk, juice, roll, croissant, jam, butter. The rooms are mostly small, cleaning was done and towels changed every day.

My parents had a big bathroom. . . Rooms for 2 stars. . . Everything seemed to be fine, but. . . constant noise, screams, showdowns under the windows.... the district is still the same.... And it could be I would survive, but....there are mice in the hotel....and there are a lot of them....and they just walk... At the parents on the 2nd floor, the mouse climbed into the suitcase, in our room (on the 4th floor) the son drove mice from corner to corner... At night, rustles and squeaks !! ! Basically a nightmare!! ! I do not recommend!!!!! !
