Hostels in Paris – to stay, or not to stay?

Do you have a small budget and want to visit Paris without breaking the bank? Staying in a hostel is certainly the most economic solution when travelling alone. If you bring a group of friends, I advise you to opt instead for an apartment in Paris, so you can take advantage of cheaper rates, and sleep in a much more peaceful and comfortable environment.
Hostels however are a great solution for young people wishing to spend a weekend in Paris.

The advantages of choosing the hostel:

· young and festive environment

· the breakfast is often included in the price

· Hostels often organize parties or events

· practice foreign languages

· easier to build relationships and friendships when you share the same room

The disadvantages of choosing a hostel:

· sometimes noisy, it all depends on with whom you share the room

· less comfort than an apartment of hotel

· sharing a room with other people can sometimes be embarrassing

In Paris, there is a large selection of hostels that you can find on websites such as http://www.parisinfo.com/hotels-paris/pour-les-jeunes/. These rooms are usually 3-15 beds, but some also offer double rooms at higher rates, but still cheaper than a hotel. Most of these hostels include bed linen and breakfast in the price, and have a common kitchen to cook a meal in the evening after a day of sightseeing.



In an international atmosphere, young and friendly with high security, staying in a hostel will certainly leave you full of memories to share when you return from your vacation.
