Having made a decision to visit Paris, a tourist is faced with the questions of choosing a hotel, entertainment places and restaurants. To have a successful vacation in France, you must have a sufficient amount of money with you. Consider what are the prices in Paris for the main services that are of interest to travelers.
Accommodation in hotels in France
Hotels in the central districts of the capital are always more expensive than those located on its outskirts. The more stars the establishment has, the higher the prices there will be.
Room rates in Parisian hotels:
- hotel with one star - 50 euros,
- hotel with two stars - 60 euros,
- hotel with three stars - at least 70 euros,
- four stars - above 110 euros,
- five stars - from 250 euros.
Tourists who prefer budget accommodation find it near the Northern District, which is traditionally considered the cheapest area in Paris. For a night in a double room, you will have to pay 50 euros. In Montparnasse, the same room costs 20 euros more. Apartments with a kitchen can be rented for EUR 60 or more per day. Living in this area, you can reach the center with its attractions on foot. In the Red Light District, you can stay in a brothel for 30 euros, but this option is not for everyone.
Where and how to eat for tourists
Most often, travelers have breakfast and lunch in a cafe. The best place to eat is at a place that is popular with the locals. They probably feed well and inexpensively there. In a cafe, breakfast costs between 8 and 12 euros, and lunch - about 15 euros. In a prestigious institution, you can dine for 35 euros. Dinner with wine in the restaurant will cost about 70 euros, excluding the tip. If you don't want to leave a tip, which is usually 15% of the order value, then eat at the counter. Cafeterias are located close to historical monuments. The prices are quite high there.
Prices in Paris for entertainment
When you come to the capital of France for a couple of days, buy yourself a museum card. Its cost per day is 15 euros. It gives you the opportunity to see the museums of Paris, the Notre Dame tower, the Arc de Triomphe and some other famous objects. An entrance ticket to Paris museums costs no more than 7 euros. You can climb the Eiffel Tower by paying 10 euros. Take a river cruise on the Seine for 9 euros or go to the water park for the same money. It is also worth going to Disneyland, the price of an adult ticket there is 36 euros. To visit the Moulin Rouge cabaret, you need to spend at least 72 euros. But this price includes dinner and dancing.
To summarize, a budget vacation in Paris costs 70 euros per day for 1 person. A tourist who chooses a mid-range hotel will spend a little more - about 100 euros per day. The upper threshold for the cost of entertainment in France is impossible to determine.
