Les Piaules

Top choice in Le Marais, Ménilmontant & Belleville


Run by hip, witty staff, this brilliant hostel is the Belleville hot spot to mingle with locals over Parisian craft beer at the stunning ground-floor bar, cosy up in front of the wood-burner, or soak up the sun and panoramic views from the roof terrace. Dorms are fitted with custom bunks and ample bedside plugs; rooftop doubles have sleek all-white decor.

Watch for a second, equally inviting Les Piaules with 192 beds and plant-filled rooftop bar to open on place de la Nation, 11e, in 2021.
