A little high-priced for a two star, but the neighborhood gives you true old Paris instead of touristy Right Bank Paris. The staff is friendly, and the hotel was renovated in 1997. Back rooms are quieter but darker. Has air conditioning and continental breakfast. A bakery is literally next door. Close (but not too close) to Gard du Nord, the Opera and Pigalle. No Amex. LG
