The 10th arrondissement of Paris is a reasonable area to stay in, but it has no major tourist attractions and is known mainly for the two train stations inside it (Gare de l’Est and Gare du Nord).
All this makes the arrondissement relatively cheap, but it also has its advantages: if you stay near République, you’ll have good access to many metro lines, to the Canal Saint-Martin and to the Oberkampf area, where Parisians themselves love to go out.
Lucky for you, I did the work and hand-picked a selection of hotels spread across the whole arrondissement, from Place de la République along the banks of the Canal Saint-Martin to the two train stations, sorted by star rating from the most pampering to the most budget-friendly. So let’s get going.
🏆 The recommended hotels in the 10th
L’Echiquier Opéra Paris
A hotel from the MGallery collection. A perfect mix of period design, quiet and pampering in the heart of the arrondissement.
Hotel Taylor
A hidden gem on a quiet street near Place de la République. Pleasant design and a warm atmosphere.
District République
The best-value choice for anyone looking for a cheap, clean and comfortable hotel with excellent metro access.
Four- and five-star hotels
-
Renaissance Paris Republique Hotel & Spa
The only five-star hotel in the arrondissement, in a former office building on Rue René Boulanger that reopened as a hotel in 2016. It has 121 rooms, a restaurant with a semi-open kitchen overlooking a green courtyard, and a spa (by Sothys) with a Jacuzzi, a hammam and a sauna. République station is right by the entrance, and from there you can reach almost anywhere without changing lines, including the Eiffel Tower. Since March 2025 the street itself has been pedestrianized and the entrance has moved to Boulevard Saint-Martin, so don’t get confused when you arrive with your suitcases. Keep in mind that the spa isn’t included in your stay and is open by reservation only, so I recommend booking your slot when you check in.
- A basement spa with a Jacuzzi, a hammam and a sauna
- République metro station right outside the door
- The spa costs extra and needs advance booking
-
9Hotel Republique
On Rue Pierre Chausson, with Jacques Bonsergent station only 45 meters from the hotel entrance.
There are 48 rooms designed by the architecture firm Castel Veciana, and breakfast is served in a room with an exposed brick ceiling and Scandinavian decor. The lobby has an honesty bar where you pour your own drink and write it down, and a gym that’s open around the clock. Keep in mind that the basic rooms are small, so I recommend asking for a room on the top floor, since some of them have a little balcony over the rooftops.
-
Hôtel Hor
The hotel was built in 2012 and is about 150 meters from Gare du Nord, so if you’re arriving on the Eurostar or heading north, it’s very convenient (on the other hand, if you came to explore Paris, I’d recommend finding another location).
The lobby opens onto a planted inner garden and a quiet terrace, and it has a games corner with table football, ping-pong, a jukebox and a library of board games (great if you’re coming with kids). The gym is free and comes with towels and a water fountain, and some rooms get a private balcony with a view of the rooftops. Keep in mind that the area around the station can be hectic in the evening, but the rooms themselves are well soundproofed.
-
L’Echiquier Opéra
On Rue de l’Échiquier, a surprisingly quiet residential street a few minutes from the Grands Boulevards.
There are 88 rooms designed like Parisian apartments of the 1930s, and the building has kept its mosaic floors, original woodwork and Belle Époque paintings. The bar, Le 38, sits in a glassed-in winter garden and also runs mixology workshops. The minibar in your room includes drinks and water at no charge, and the gym is open around the clock. Keep in mind that the basic rooms are about 20 square meters, so I recommend upgrading to a bigger room if you’re coming for a week.
-
Windsor Opera
A small Art Deco hotel with 24 rooms, on a quiet side street in the theater district near the Grands Boulevards.
There’s a bar, 24-hour room service and a self-service laundry for guests, which is a very useful detail if you’re in the middle of a long trip around Europe. Grands Boulevards station is about five minutes away on foot. Keep in mind that the Comfort rooms are only about 14 square meters, so I recommend spending a little more and booking a Superior room.
-
Bloom House Hôtel & Spa
A 91-room hotel in a slightly less central location than most of the hotels here, but the pampering and the fairly reasonable price make up for it. It’s on Rue du Château Landon, exactly halfway between Gare de l’Est and Gare du Nord. The highlight is actually in the basement: the Bloomy spa, with an 18-meter heated indoor pool lit by a skylight, a sauna, a Jacuzzi and two treatment rooms. On the ground floor is the restaurant Bloom Garden, Mediterranean in spirit, set around an inner courtyard lined with zellige tiles. Louis Blanc station on line 7 of the metro is about two hundred meters from the door. Keep in mind that the rooms are compact and that the surroundings here are far more practical than picturesque. I recommend asking for a room with a balcony, since some of the rooms enjoy a real balcony with an open view.
- An 18-meter heated indoor pool
- A Mediterranean restaurant around an inner courtyard
- Compact rooms, and the area is more practical than picturesque
Three-star hotels
-
Hôtel Le Rocroy
On Rue de Rocroy, about five minutes’ walk from Gare du Nord but in a quiet, safe area. There are 48 rooms after a full Art Deco renovation, and suites with a small kitchenette that suit families.
The nicest detail is actually downstairs: the spa and the gym sit under original stone vaults, and the Klein Blue bar pours cocktails in a speakeasy atmosphere. Breakfast is served from 7 to 10 a.m. on weekdays and until 11 a.m. on weekends. Keep in mind that the rooms aren’t cleaned daily by default, so I recommend asking for it in advance at the front desk.
-
Est Hotel
The hotel now operates under the name Hôtel Esté, on Boulevard de Strasbourg right across from Gare de l’Est.
There are 76 rooms, and downstairs the real surprise is waiting: a spa with a heated indoor pool, a sauna, a hammam and a gym, which isn’t something you see every day in a hotel next to a train station. There’s also a restaurant and a terrace, and the Canal Saint-Martin is about four minutes away on foot. Keep in mind that there’s no parking and that the basic rooms are small, about 14 square meters, so I recommend upgrading to a Deluxe if you’re staying more than a night or two.
-
Hotel Taylor
Rue Taylor is a small one-way street, which is why this hotel is wonderfully quiet even though it’s central.
There are 55 rooms renovated between 2015 and 2019, and every room has a minibar with drinks, snacks and a Nespresso machine at no extra charge, plus free international calls. The toiletries are paraben-free. Jacques Bonsergent station is about 250 meters away, and Place de la République is about seven minutes away on foot. Keep in mind that the basic rooms are a bit smaller than usual, so I recommend upgrading to a bigger room if you’re coming for a week.
-
Libertel Gare Du Nord
A 50-room hotel sitting exactly halfway between Gare du Nord, where the Eurostar leaves from, and Gare de l’Est.
The real advantage here is logistics: on the RER B you get from Charles de Gaulle Airport in about thirty-five minutes without changing lines. The rooms have air conditioning, a safe, a tea and coffee tray and eco-labeled toiletries. You can also book a room for the daytime only, which is very handy if your flight leaves in the evening. Keep in mind that the rooms are small and that an ambulance sometimes goes down the street at night, so I recommend asking for a room facing the inside.
-
Midnight Hotel
A tiny hotel with only 21 rooms, between the two big stations: about 300 meters from Gare du Nord and about 200 meters from Gare de l’Est.
The decor is colorful and playful, and in some rooms a big picture of the Moulin Rouge hangs above the bed. There’s bike rental on site and a small library corner. Keep in mind that the breakfast room is very small, twelve seats in all, and that the elevator is narrow. From the station you hop on the RER B and get to the airport without changing lines, and that’s what makes the hotel so convenient for your first or last night. I recommend going down to breakfast early, or simply having a coffee at one of the cafés on the street.
-
Staycity Aparthotels
This isn’t exactly a hotel but 50 apartments and studios in a quiet passage near Gare de l’Est.
Every unit has a kitchenette with a stovetop, a microwave, a fridge and an espresso machine, and some have a separate bedroom, which makes the place an excellent solution for families and for anyone who wants to cook for themselves. There’s paid parking on site, cribs and high chairs at no charge, and tiered discounts for long stays. Keep in mind that cleaning is done once a week rather than daily and that the shared laundry costs extra, so this is a place for a long stay, not for one night.
-
Le Citizen Hôtel
A tiny boutique hotel with only twelve rooms on Quai de Jemmapes, right on the bank of the Canal Saint-Martin, and every room looks out on the water. The design is Scandinavian and understated, with wood paneling, and it was one of the first hotels in the area to call itself eco-friendly, with organic cotton sheets and less plastic. A small Japanese restaurant runs on the ground floor, and all around there are plenty of cafés and boutiques. Jacques Bonsergent station is about five minutes away on foot. Keep in mind that the rooms and the lobby are very small and that on summer evenings the canal bank fills with people until the small hours, which is why the front desk hands out earplugs. I recommend asking for the highest floor possible and booking well in advance.
- All twelve rooms overlook the canal
- A small Japanese restaurant on the ground floor
- The rooms and the lobby are very small
-
La Planque Hotel
A 35-room hotel that opened in October 2018 on Rue Arthur Groussier, a quiet side street at the end of Avenue Parmentier. The interior design duo Desjeux Delaye planned it as a kind of family guesthouse: a lobby with soft sofas, a library, an inner patio and a glass-roofed breakfast room with a long wooden table and secondhand furniture. In a corner of the lobby stands a record player with a vinyl collection, and coffee, tea and pastries are available there for free around the clock. Goncourt station is a few minutes away on foot, and the Canal Saint-Martin about five. Keep in mind that the rooms are small and the elevator barely fits two people, so if you’re arriving with big suitcases, I recommend asking for a low floor.
- Free coffee, tea and pastries all day long
- A patio and a glass-roofed breakfast room
- Small rooms and a tiny elevator
-
Le Robinet d’Or
The name means the Golden Tap, and that’s exactly what was made here until the 1930s: a tap factory on Rue Robert Blache that was turned into a 21-room hotel. The industrial spirit survives in the shared spaces, with zinc, concrete and old parquet, while the rooms are warm, with Liberty fabrics, tweed and secondhand furniture. There’s a French restaurant open every day of the week that serves brunch on Sundays, and breakfast is served on the flowery patio or in your room. The Canal Saint-Martin is about fifty meters from the door, Gare de l’Est seven minutes away on foot and Gare du Nord twelve. Keep in mind that the building has no elevator, but the staff are happy to help with your suitcases. I recommend upgrading to a Superior room if there are three of you, since it has a sofa bed and a bathtub instead of just a shower.
- Only about fifty meters from the canal bank
- Private on-site parking by reservation, a rarity in Paris
- No elevator in the building
Cheap hotels (two stars and below)
-
District République
On Rue Lucien Sampaix, a quiet street with a supermarket right across from the entrance, which is far more useful than it sounds.
There are 33 rooms over six floors, two of them wheelchair-accessible, which is rare in a small, cheap hotel. The rooms are air-conditioned and soundproofed, with a kettle and a tea and coffee tray. Jacques Bonsergent station is about five minutes away on foot. Keep in mind that this is a two-star hotel with no cribs or extra beds, but if you’re looking for a clean, cheap base near République, it’s a good choice.
