9e: Les Trois Poussins Hotel

The 'Hotel of the Three Chicks' is a lovely property due south of Place Pigalle. It has 40 rooms, half of which are small studios with their own cooking facilities. There's air-con throughout and one room has wheelchair access.
This place reeks of class and style; OK, so we're suckers for classical music and that's what greets you in the lobby on arrival. Take the steel-coloured, almost artistically designed lift up to the guestrooms and be soothed by the peach and flash colour scheme of the halls and the restful views over Paris (especially the panoramic ones from the 5th and 6th floor) or down onto the back patio. The patio is a great spot in the warmer months for breakfast or a drink. The vaulted breakfast room in the cellar may be devoid of light but it is so warm and inviting that this potential shortcoming is instantly forgotten.

11e: Hotel Beaumarchais 

This brighter-than-bright 31-room boutique hotel, with its emphasis on sunbursts and bold colours, particularly orange and yellow, is just this side of kitsch. But it makes for a different Paris experience and fits in with its surroundings very well indeed.
The hotel bills itself as a 'veritable ode to the sun' and there's no doubt that all those primary colours and clean lines will put guests in a good mood; even the key holders are bold chunks of red, orange, yellow, blue and green plastic. Guestrooms are of a decent size and most of the doubles have a choice of tub or shower in the bathroom. La crème de la crème are room Nos 2 and 3, a triple and a double entered from the hotel's charming leafy terraced courtyard, where breakfast is served in fine weather. The hotel is air-conditioned throughout.

5e: Hotel la Demeure

This self-proclaimed hotel de caractère, with 43 elegant rooms, is owned and operated by a charming father-son team who always seem to be at hand to welcome and serve.
The hotel might seem a bit out of the action at the very bottom of the 5e. But the refined rooms, the almost 'clubby' public areas in warm tones of red and orange and the wraparound balconies of the corner rooms make it worth going the extra distance. Famed for those extra touches, the hotel has put iPods in it its suites and installed a modern red fireplace in the lobby that actually works. Colour schemes in the rooms vary - from silvery blue and gray to beige and tan. All doubles contain a queen-size bed while there suites have king-size ones.
