There's no shortage of beautiful and luxurious hotels in Paris. I still dream of staying at the Ritz one day. The reality is, I usually look for hotels that are both nice and affordable. That's why I've compiled a list for you of the best budget hotels in Paris that also boast beautiful interiors. Because let's be honest: aesthetics matter too. I should also add a caveat: budget hotels in Paris are a relative term.
If you search websites like Booking.com for reviews above 8 and the lowest price, you'll find many more cheap hotels (but they are often less attractive!). The hotels in this fine Paris list starting prices that at the time of writing are between €80 and a maximum of around €150 per night.

This is one of those weekends that's packed with cool events!
Catch the last cherry blossoms, hunt for vintage treasures or feast on oysters.

@eetcafe_de_reiger is the spot to remember.
Cozy, casual, and a seasonal menu. This one was on my list to share for a year and finally it's (almost) asparagus season again! 🤤
Another plus? Prices are very reasonable here!
📍 Eetcafé de Reiger
Jordaan, Amsterdam City Centre
Save this spot for when you're craving warm Dutch traditional dishes in the heart of Amsterdam.
And did you hear the same team took over Eetcafé van Beeren? I can't wait to go there too!

A cookbook from Grandma. Three Michelin stars. And a beautiful 70s villa in a quiet neighborhood in Bangkok, where you are welcomed as if you were at the chefs' home.
The Sühring brothers do not cook based on trends; they cook from memories. Of their grandmother's farm, of the flavors of their youth in Germany, and of techniques passed down through generations.
@relaischateaux invited me to experience Sühring during a solo lunch, and this is truly my ultimate definition of culinary self-care.
This was a surprising afternoon in Bangkok, where I ate the best German food I have ever tasted. And that in a city where I normally avoid European restaurants. Well, for @restaurant_suhring, you really want to make that exception.
Signature dishes that I still think back to regularly?
🍴 Labskaus with caviar
🍴 Enleta waffle with Pfalz vinegar
🍴 Game pie
🍴 Dry aged Duck
TIP: If you go to Sühring, reserve the seats at the kitchen bar so you have a view of the chefs at work!
Follow @yourlbb for more tips you can trust.

In this reels I take you along for fine dining in Bangkok at the three Michelin starred restaurant Sühring.

This is one of the nicest free outings in the spring! Did you know that you can gather (or pick, for the connoisseurs 😉) oysters yourself in various places in the Netherlands? I’m in Zeeland for a bit this weekend, and if we can, we’ll go again.
📍In this video, I show where you can fill your bucket.
Comment oester for the comprehensive guide with all details about all 8 locations + handy tips and rules.
Important to know:
– Max. 10 kilos per person (≈ 1 bucket)
– For personal use only
– Do not scoop or scrape the soil
– Go at low tide
Handy to take with you:
Bucket, screwdriver, boots, work gloves, tea towel, clean clothes and garbage bags (for the oysters and dirty clothes).
And of course: also bring an oyster knife, lemon and champagne 🍋🥂Because you want to taste something right away!
The oyster season runs from September to about April / early May, so now that the water isn't so cold, this is the perfect outing.
In the full guide, I share exactly where you can easily find them without much effort. Leave a comment and I'll send it to you right away!
Who do you want to go oyster collecting with soon?

This is one of those weekends where your only problem is how you're going to fit everything into this last weekend of March (yes already?!).
From a free event to try new Limited Subs at @ijveramsterdam to slow mornings, a market stroll (or two), maybe finally ticking off that new restaurant that's been on your list for weeks… and ending somewhere with a good glass of wine while telling yourself “just one more” 😉

Not too big,
everything within walking distance,
But plenty of nice hotspots!!
These services (and what clothing) are in the Netherlands perfuse for you to tip this line!
I've got massive spring fever, so it's time for a mini-escape: everything is within walking distance, there are lovely coffee shops, boutiques for shopping, and enough gems to discover in 48 hours ✨

This is your sign to plan your next weekend brunch with friends in Amsterdam 👀

It wouldn't be Amsterdam if the weekend wasn't packed with plans. Spring is in the air and I feel like new hotspots are popping up all over the city. HELLO @ottolenghi & @ottolenghi_amsterdam :-)
And yes, market season is officially back. Think vintage finds, design treasures and sunny terrace stops in between.
Plus, plenty of feel-good plans: from a Korean Sunday brunch @nikotin.restobar to a kid-proof pizza nights.

Sometimes the hotels are a little further away from the center, but you can, for example, rent bikes via Baja Bikes to explore the city. To get the best deals on cheap hotels in Paris, travel outside the school holidays and during the low season. Have you set a date? Or do you just want to daydream while making plans? Read on for budget-friendly, yet oh-so-YourLBB-worthy tips for hotels in Paris. From the city center to the up-and-coming suburbs, and often near a metro station.
| TIP: take the train to Paris! You can book train tickets from just €35 >>
This hotel is a classic! Hotel Henriette Located 500 meters from the charming Latin Quarter, this hotel, with its subtly furnished rooms, is highly recommended. Enjoy breakfast in the courtyard in the morning and rent a bike to explore the city.

Trust me if you want to experience Hotel Paradis! This hotel has incredibly stylish rooms and a prime location. You're just a short walk from hotspots like Hero, Richer, and Bamboo. A five-minute walk takes you to the metro station, putting the rest of the city within easy reach.
41 Rue Des Petitions Ecuries, Paris, France

This pet-friendly hotel isn't just a sight to behold; it also offers everything you need for a wonderful weekend in Paris. The rooms are fully equipped, and the metro station is just around the corner. Although the hotel is located a bit further from the city center, it allows you to truly explore Paris's neighborhoods and discover lesser-known spots, such as the beautiful Parc des Buttes-Chaumont.

Here you'll stay in one of the unique rooms and enjoy a hearty breakfast in the morning. The location is perfect in Le Marais, just 300 meters from the Musée des Arts et Metiers. Each room has a different style, from romantic to very cool and urban. We're going for the room below!

For a budget-friendly hotel, Hotel Terre Neuve looks surprisingly nice! The rooms are stylish and tastefully decorated, and you'll immediately feel at home. However, you'll have to walk a bit further from this hotel to reach some of the city's attractions; it's 2,8 kilometers to Bastille.
22 Bis Rue Terre Neuve, Paris, France

The Hôtel de la Porte Dorée in Paris is definitely one of my favorite affordable hotels in Paris. This hotel has a green policy, using energy-saving appliances and recycling programs. A big plus for me! The rooms are classically decorated with true Parisian charm, giving them a wonderfully luxurious feel.

Generator Paris is a design hostel in Paris's vibrant 10th arrondissement. During your stay at this poshtel (hostel meets hotel), you'll sleep in a sleek yet cozy room, some even with a private terrace. There are plenty of bars, restaurants, and vintage shops nearby. Family rooms are also available.
9-11 Place du Colonel Fabien, Paris, France

Stay at Hotel Trema during your visit to Paris. This hotel is a four-minute walk from the Bassin de la Villette, a large, free outdoor pool open only in summer and a real hot spot for warm weather. The rooms are simple yet modern.

You'll want to check out this stylish hotel just outside the center of Paris! The Mama Shelter Hotel boasts a restaurant serving traditional French cuisine. It also has a pizzeria, so you certainly don't have to leave the hotel for delicious food! I've stayed at Mama Shelter hotels all over the world, and they even have one in LA!

This hotel is a six-minute walk from Place de la Bastille and the Opéra Bastille. There are plenty of lovely restaurants, cafés, and bars in the surrounding area. The rooms at L'Antoine are beautifully decorated, and the bathroom, with its colorful tiles, is a real eye-catcher.

Hôtel COQ has a bar where you can relax with a cocktail after a day of shopping. A full breakfast is served in the morning, and for dinner, you can visit one of the many restaurants within walking distance. The hotel's interior is stunning; the abundance of greenery and warm colors create a very cozy atmosphere.

When you check in at a Motel One hotel, you know exactly what to expect. Budget-friendly design hotels where you can almost always find a room for under a hundred euros. Motel One Paris has its own garden and a bar. The hotel is a six-minute walk from the Porte Dorée metro station. This is ideal, as famous landmarks like Notre Dame and the Bastille Opera are just a bit too far to walk.

Hôtel Comete Paris is located in eastern Paris. The hotel's decor is inspired by space, planets, and stars. Super original!

This budget hotel in Paris is located in the heart of the city center. Each room is uniquely decorated, and how! The colorful décor is fantastic, and even the bathroom looks inviting. Enjoy a hearty breakfast in the morning, and in the evening, stroll down to the boulevard, where you'll find several restaurants for a full breakfast.
