Review

The warren-like garret Hotel Esmeralda is a personal favourite of many bargain hunters, run by the affable Lorenzo. Each room is individually and personally decorated - a flea market all its own - with an assortment of furnishings and found antiques.

IMPORTANT: Because the Hotel Esmeralda doesn't pay a commission, our friends at Travel Intelligence are no longer able to handle bookings for this hotel, so you'll need to contact the hotel directly.

Also, because of high demand, it can be extremely difficult to get a reservation at the Hotel Esmeralda unless you book at least three to five months in advance.

For alternatives to the Hotel Esmeralda, see the Paris budget hotels at Paris for Visitors.
