When Visiting Paris, General Tips:
It’s important to have everything ready for your trip in advance since Paris has limited affordable hotels but accommodates around 30 million people each year. But if you are unable to find one and are already in Paris, opt for staying in a hotel temporarily until you find the best place for you.
Do take note of the packages that come with your booking. Breakfast meals are often included but there are a few instances that certain hotels may charge you for it seperately. So, be sure to verify during check-in and check-out and when booking online.
Don’t confuse yourself with double and twin rooms; double rooms have a large bed that would accommodate a pair and twin room has two single beds. Always ask specifically for these when checking in or make a note of it when booking over the internet.
The duration of the stay and the season will determine the quality of place you’d want to stay in. There are seasons where hotel rates are ridiculously high so plan your stay in during the spring or autumn. During these seasons, the crowds not that large and the temperature is great for those who are not accustomed to the cold weather. Do take note that there are a number of hotels that do not allow for an online reservation as these hotels are ‘old school’ and consider it be impersonal. So it’s best to email them or use a phone to book for a room.
