for 3 nights stop, needs to be central as going for a few days sightseeing the usual bits and bobs etc

dont want it cost silly money (i know its pretty expensive anyways)

would be nice to be near a few nice bars (both boozers!)

i dont really know where to start as there is that many in paris, want it be kinda like a boutique type hotel (so not the french equivalent of premier inn 😆 )

whatcha got folks?

Stayed here earlier in the year—cute hotel (clean, modern, quirky), lovely people, not crazy expensive and great location just off l’Etoile

Right in Saint-Germain, just a few steps from the Musée d’Orsay.

Very nice, great location, but rooms a bit small.

Mrs Clubber and I stayed at the Radisson Blu Le Metropolitan last winter and would recommend it. It’s obviously part of a chain but doesn’t look or feel like it as it’s in an unusal (pointy!) buildling.
