08/05/2017 at 2:53 pmI haven’t stayed in a hostel in a long time, and I had the worst experience when I stayed at a hotel in France. I wonder how prices compare to AirBnb… Thanks for sharing!
WorldInParis
08/05/2017 at 10:14 pmI think that difference between hostel /airbnb is not only a matter of price. It also depends on the kind of experience you are looking for

06/16/2017 at 7:13 amWe have never stayed in a hostel but these look amazing. I particularly liked the first one-The Vintage Hoste but like the views on Smart. Hoping to go to Paris mid next year and I will need to find affordable stay. Pinning this for reference!

Vicki Louise
06/15/2017 at 9:42 amThese hostels all look so nice! Hostels certainly seemed to have raised their game since I used to stay in them (maybe 5/6 years ago!). These would all be great options for those on a budget.
WorldInParis
06/19/2017 at 9:42 amIndeed! I already experienced some nice hostels around the world a couple of years ago. Paris could be no exception
nisha
06/15/2017 at 2:24 amI think this is invaluable for backpackers to Paris. The prices are ok in a city that’s well know for being so expensive. Some years back, I remember staying in a no-frills hotel for about 30Euros I think. but I forgot the name of the hotel . It was close to big bus stand.
WorldInParis
06/19/2017 at 9:44 amThanks for your comment, Nisha 🙂

06/12/2017 at 4:16 pmI dont really stay in hostels, but the Arty Paris looks great! I might try it on my next trip to the big city.
WorldInParis
06/13/2017 at 6:23 pmWell, if there is a huge difference of price you may consider it. Especially because they also have private rooms 🙂
Brianna
06/12/2017 at 2:58 amI definitely feel more comfortable booking a hostel after reading about it on a blog. All of these options look so nice, and I love how you’ve broken them down by location. This will be a super helpful post if I ever visit Paris!

06/10/2017 at 6:32 pmWow, even the hostels in Paris have style! I would never have thought of staying in a hostel there but I am totally rethinking that now. Beautiful hostels, and they make the city so much more affordable!
WorldInParis
06/20/2017 at 9:06 amsome of them have also private rooms so having your own space in a hostel is not an issue any more (plus they are cute and cheap) 🙂

03/10/2017 at 5:26 pmSuch beautiful hostels. Smart place seems to be the one I like the most. But each one of them is so unique and doesn’t seem like a typical hostel at all

03/11/2017 at 9:49 pmI think that hostels in general are doing a great effort to do beautiful and comfy things 🙂

03/01/2017 at 1:14 pmThese are some really beautiful hostels. I particularly like smart place and it’s room. I will definitely come back to this post when I plan a hostel stay in Paris

03/01/2017 at 12:17 pmThis is such a good helpful list. I usually check how close the must see places are and then match with budget.
If luck favours and I visit Paris again I will check this list. Saving up the info.
Sandy N Vyjay
03/01/2017 at 9:23 amThough we normally do not stay in hostels. This list definitely propels us to do so. They all look great and probably can give some hotels a run for their money. What I like about these is also the fact that most of them are strategically located in Paris, which is so very convenient.
WorldInParis
03/01/2017 at 8:29 pmYes they are all located close to a metro station so perfect to explore Paris
sophie
02/28/2017 at 8:25 pmHostels in paris are the best way to enjoy the city! I have been to couple from this list, and trust me they were total safe and cheap for me! I could spent the remained money pizzas 😀 😀 Haha! Must considered option!

02/28/2017 at 6:11 pmWow, what a comprehensive post! Paris is one of my favourite cities, I’ve been 5 times from Australia but never stayed in a hostel, I had no idea they were of such a good standard & some of them are really cheap. Saving this for the near future, thanks!
Marge
02/28/2017 at 2:11 amThis made me realize the Parisian’s flair for artistic design. These hostels are so charming and cute! I love the play of colors, I’ve been wanting to design my apartment this way but I can’t do it. Anyway, when I get to Paris someday, most probably I’d stay in a hostel so I am keeping note of this post.
WorldInParis
03/01/2017 at 8:35 pmHope the post will be useful for you one day. That means you are coming to Paris 🙂
Andi
02/28/2017 at 2:06 amNice list of hotels! And I want to visit Paris someday and keep this list for future reference. For me, as long as the accommodation is nice with comfortable bed and heater, I am already good. Free breakfast that is indeed tasteful will be a bonus.

Ashlyn | From Heart And Seoul
02/28/2017 at 1:18 amSome of the trendiest hostels i’ve ever seen! I think my favorite is Arty Paris though 🙂
WorldInParis
03/01/2017 at 8:33 pmAll the people love Arty, such a cute hotel! I love especially the vintage sofa 🙂
Laura
02/27/2017 at 11:45 amI never visited a hostel in Paris before! Had a horrible experience in London once, and since then, I always book a nice, little, quiet hotel. Although, this list is quite interesting. Maybe I should reconsider the hostel-option..
WorldInParis
02/27/2017 at 10:29 pmWhen was this horrible experience? I think hostels have improved a lot, in general, and now in most of them there is also the private room option 🙂

02/24/2017 at 8:15 pmEven if you don’t plan to stay in any of these places, the post is very helpful to understand the differences between areas and in which one you would like to stay during your trip 🙂

02/24/2017 at 10:03 amIndeed, hostels are doing a great effort to offer more and more beautiful options to budget travelers 🙂
Vicky and Buddy
02/21/2017 at 1:03 amIt’s nice to see that hostels are stepping up their game. Just because they cost less, doesn’t mean that their quality has to be bad. I especially like when hostels offer female only dorms or ones with curtains, just to have a little bit more privacy. Location is also very important. You have a great list here, but I think my favorite would have to be Saint Christopher’s Inn Canal.
WorldInParis
02/21/2017 at 2:21 pmGood pic, perhaps it is less intimate but they have a great location 😉

02/20/2017 at 9:12 pmI’ve never stayed in a hostel before and perhaps I have preconceived notions about why it is not right for me but these are really superb! Paris certainly does hostels much better than some country’s I have seen. Really beautiful accommodations.

02/20/2017 at 10:19 pmthank you! let’s say that hostels have worked hard to improve its comfort standards and visitors’ general experience 😉

02/20/2017 at 2:07 pmWe love staying in hostels, they always seem to offer so much more than hotels and at a friendly price! Although these are more expensive than we are used to staying in, but I suppose it is Paris!

02/20/2017 at 10:19 pmYes, Nic . . . this is Paris 😉
Milijana
02/19/2017 at 9:02 pmThis is a very useful guide to hostels in Paris. Hotel rooms can be extremely expensive in Paris and that is where hostels come in as the more affordable alternative.
Just to add, love the photo of Le Village Hostel with the view of Basilica of the Sacred Heart.

02/20/2017 at 10:20 pmyes, it must be great to wake up with a view like this 🙂
Brianna
02/19/2017 at 2:31 pmWhat a helpful resource for budget travelers! I love how all the rooms look so clean, but they never really look like that in real life 😛
I like hostels that are close to the city center and that are safe. I generally like to stay in female only rooms, just for my own peace of mind, but I’ll stay in mixed dorms if I have to.
WorldInParis
02/20/2017 at 10:21 pmYes, I also prefer female rooms. And if they are ensuite then I have everything that I need 😉
Jo
02/19/2017 at 2:22 pmWow all of these hostels look so chic w/t such lovely and modern decor. Would love to stay in one of these. Especially liked that St christophers inn has curtains – SO imp to have some privacy in your dorm, eh!

02/20/2017 at 10:43 pmYes the curtains in the bunkbeds are a big invention! 🙂

02/19/2017 at 12:49 amI love that these all look so clean and nice. My biggest criteria for hostels was a private room that was exceptionally clean and that wasn’t a rowdy crazy place. I don’t think it’s too much to ask for in a hostel. Paris is definitely more difficult because of the prices, but you’ve got so many great options here.

02/18/2017 at 6:18 pmTrès bonne. It’s been a while since I have been to Paris but great to know you can still get a private room under 70 euro. I was noticing from the pictures that some of the dorms look like they offer lockable storage. Is this a common feature or something that varies from hostel to hostel. Locking my camera equipment and laptop while I roam the city seems like a must have feature to me.

02/18/2017 at 6:14 pmWow, some of these look like 3-4 star hotels! I remember Paris hotel rooms being quite pricey, maybe next time we will try one of these! Thanks for the tips.

02/18/2017 at 8:12 pmYes, hotels still are quite pricey 🙁 Luckily you can find in these hostels here cool options for all ages and states of mind

02/18/2017 at 4:09 pmThanks for sharing this I have been wanting to go to Paris but it always seems so expensive so maybe I could look at saying in a hostel as these look really nice. I don’t really do sharing so would have to find one where I get my own room lol

02/18/2017 at 4:02 pmHostels came to be a wonderful option to run from the hotel high prices, specially in cities like Paris. Thanks for sharing this list and all the information.

02/18/2017 at 2:25 pmAs I was scrolling through this admiring all the hostels I was thinking to myself what a struggle it would be to pick between them and to remember my favourites! Thanks for adding the comparative table at the end, this was really needed! I really like you’ve got a range of hostels with varying prices, tastes and locations. If you can’t find a good hostel from this list you’re too fussy! Brilliant, informative article.
