Paris may be the art and fashion capital of the world -- known for its over-the-top luxury properties and bohemian boutiques -- but though some (or, really, most people) can't afford a stay at the iconic Hotel Plaza Athenee or the Hotel Le Bristol, it doesn't mean they have to skimp on their Parisian experience. Even the most budget-conscious travelers are sure to find value options without having to turn to crowded, 6-bed hostel rooms or chain hotels near the airport -- especially with the help of this guide. Check out our top picks for budget-friendly hotels in Paris and start packing!
