Most visitors to Paris choose to stay in 11th Arrondissement hotels for two reasons (although, spoiler alert, there's a third and even more compelling reason to book here).

The first reason is the district's convenient location near Gare du Nord and Gare de l'Est, the city's two largest rail stations. If you're arriving or departing on the Eurostar from London, a Thalys train from Brussels, Amsterdam, or German, or a regional SNCF or other domestic train to southeastern France, booking a nearby hotel will be your easiest option. 

Numerous metro stations in Paris 10 make getting around to other parts of the citiy quic and easy.

The second reason relates to value.  As savvy travelers know, a bevy of new and recently-opened 3- and 4-star hotels in the 10th arrondissement offer chic accommodations and appealing amenities at lower - sometimes much lower - rates than you'll find equivalent properties in Paris's touristic center. 

This bevy of new hotels testifies to the transformation that's been sweeping through the 10th arrondissement for awhile.  Although a decade or so ago, an abundance of 1-star (and probably even a few no-star) hotels made the area around both stations feel a little shabby, those places have been erased by a tsunami of gentrification. 

Likewise, the abandoned warehouses and former artisan workshops of an earlier era have now been transformed into chic apartments, designer boutiques, a chocolate museume (yes!), bookstores, and trendy bistros, bars, and bakeries.

And that leads to the third reason why you might choose to stay in a hotel in Paris's 10th arrondissement:  the buzzy ambiance of newly hip and trendy neighborhoods such as Canal Saint-Martin and Place de la République combined with a fascinating mix of vestiges vestiges from an older Paris: covered passages and covered markets, hidden courtyards, small theaters (with productions in French), layers of history, a notorious haunted house (and favorite Halloween destination), and even a club where music luminaries such as Bob Dylan, Prince, and Miles Davis once performed.

Our recommendations for the best 10th arrondissement Paris hotels include a variety of the best new and recently-new 3-star and 4-star hotels and apartments featuring appealing amenities and attractive rates.
