Overview for Hostels in Paris

Paris has plenty of hostels (auberges de jeunesse) and foyers (literally “homes”) to accommodate students and young travelers. Over the last few years, the quality of these has improved to the point where some can compete with a basic budget hotel. Most offer large, shared rooms, and smaller, more private ones for a higher price. Few have private bathrooms, so be prepared to share. You can usually count on cleanliness and a certain amount of congeniality—though there are times when the friendly atmosphere is just plain noisy. While some hostels are in large and impersonal buildings, others are in historic buildings that are both comfortable and handsome. Many welcome travelers of all ages, though there may be restrictions when it comes to sharing rooms.
Hostels in Paris are an especially good deal for solo travelers. As single rooms in hotels become scarce in summer and during the big international fairs, you might have to choose between a double room in a hotel or a bed at a hostel. The latter option can be especially attractive, and not only financially. Hostels are a great place to meet travelers from all over the world. While there are still a fewhostels in Paris that have lockout times, many are now open 24 hours a day. Still, if you are a night owl, be sure to check open hours before you commit.

Another positive development is that hostels are starting to take reservations in advance—but there are still some that don’t. In that case, the best strategy is to show up as early as possible in the day. You can also call ahead to find out what your chances are for getting a bed. It is not unusual for hostels to have a maximum stay limit—again, ask before you makeplans to bed down.

If you arrive late in the day, head to one of the offices of OTU Voyages at 119 rue St-Martin in the 4e (Métro: Châtelet), 39 rue George Bernanous in the 5e (Métro: Port Royal), or 2 rue Malus in the 5e (Métro: Place-Monge). All three locations have the same phone number: & 01-49-72-57-00. Its staff will help you find lodgings in hostels, budget hotels, or (in summer) University of Paris dorms. It will also negotiate discount rail, bus, and plane tickets; issue student IDs; and provide details about activities of special interest to young people. It’s

open Monday to Friday 10am to 6:30pm, Saturday 10am to 5pm.The Office de Tourisme et des Congrès de Paris, 127 av. des Champs Elysees, 75008 Paris (& 01-49-52-53-35; Metro: Charles-de-Gaulle–Etoile or George V), will book you a bed in a hostel for a 1€ ($1.15) fee. (Text Source: ‘Frommers‘)
