Spending a night, or several nights, in a hostel means having to deal with promiscuity. But as far as the Arty is concerned, most of its rooms and dormitories have private bathrooms. It is a good compromise for those who do not like to wait and still seek privacy in a cheaper stay.
Although breakfast (€8) is not included in the room price, it is still convenient. Otherwise, as in most hostels, you can bring your own food to satisfy your desires (especially with the grocery stores 100 meters away and the common kitchen in the hostel).
This hostel is ideal for travelers attending exhibitions, given the proximity to the Parc des Expositions de Versailles.
Pros: The common room is spacious and very open. And the hostel’s shuttle service makes it very easy to get to and from the airport.
Cons: private bathrooms for most of the bedrooms, so relatively small.

Price:
Dormitories: €38 per night
Rooms: €118-142 per night

Don’t let the name fool you, this is a hostel; and its main advantage is its offbeat decor – an ode to pop culture and diversity. It is colorful with its graphs full of character.
In addition, the “dormitories” are quite small in number and you will also find rooms, some of which have a bathroom.
Although there is no kitchen, don’t worry – the street is very lively and you will easily find something to eat. However, breakfast can be taken in addition to the price of the night for those who wish it; it is sometimes even included.

Le Regent Montmartre
37 Boulevard Rochechouart, 75009 Paris
Types of beds:
Dormitories: from 4 to 6 beds.
Rooms: Double, triple or family (4).
Prices:
Dormitories: around €32 per night
Rooms: €145 (private bathroom with bathtub); then around €205 for family rooms.
+Optional breakfast (€9).
Considering the price of double or triple rooms, one could not expect private bathrooms, and even less with a bathtub! Although the spaces are sometimes limited, the rooms, well lit, are nevertheless pleasant.
And then, we quickly forget the size of the room when we are located at the foot of the Sacred Heart! So much so, that some rooms in this hostel have a direct view of it.
If breakfast seems a little expensive to you, it is at least varied. It is also optional, so nothing prevents you from having breakfast out on the terrace in the streets of the Montmartre district. You are also free to use the common kitchen.
In terms of location, the Anvers metro station is located just in front of the hotel.
Pros: the elevator (although a little small), and of course the unique location.
Cons: the narrowness of some rooms.
