How to Choose Among Hotels Near Eiffel Tower

Staying close is a trade-off. Some of the hotels close to Eiffel Tower here put you a couple of minutes from its base, while others are a 10 to 15 minute walk away in exchange for a quieter street and a lower price. Either way, the tower is surrounded by three different neighborhoods rather than one.

Walking distance versus metro distance

If you are traveling with children, older relatives or heavy luggage, a metro station at the door matters more than a view. Several of the best hotels near Eiffel Tower sit beside Bir-Hakeim, La Motte-Piquet-Grenelle or La Tour-Maubourg. For anything beyond the tower itself you will use the metro, and our guide to getting around Paris by metro, RER and ticket type explains how to link up from each area.

Rooms at even the best hotels near Eiffel Tower tend to be compact, and bathrooms even more so. An Eiffel Tower view is never guaranteed unless a room category promises it, so read the room description rather than assuming.
