ByHours is a platform for booking hotels by the hour, offering hotel room reservations for 3, 6, or 12 hours in Paris and all over the world. This site allows Parisians to enjoy a hotel (from 2 to 5 stars) and its services during the day for just a few hours. For more places to enjoy a sweet treat, take a look at my selection of tea rooms in Paris too.
When I was offered the chance to test this site (the 3-hour booking), I wasn’t sure how to use this time “wisely.” And then I found the perfect idea: having a little tea time with girlfriends (our excuse was to celebrate a birthday).
It was in the very charming Hôtel Scarlett (located in the 20th arrondissement of Paris) that we spent this lovely, intimate moment with my 2 friends Princesse Acidulée and Catherine.
I really liked the setting and the decoration of this hotel, both the common areas and the lovely room we were lucky enough to have for these 3 hours.
It was just perfect, because we had access to the hotel’s hot drinks and we accompanied it all with the delicious little cream puffs from Popelini (I don’t know if you know them, but they are to die for!).
The chic and cozy room was particularly well-suited to the occasion with its small lounge area, and we had peace and quiet to chat in complete tranquility.
ByHours Rates:
- Hôtel Scarlett, 3 hours are €64
- In Paris, for 3 hours, the price range is between €30 and €70 (depending on the hotel’s star rating)
- And for 6 hours, still in Paris, between €50 and €100
There is only one hotel that doesn’t fit into this range because it is a 5-star hotel, the Hyatt Paris Madeleine (which I already told you about on the blog), in which case 3 hours are €154.
Thanks to ByHours for this invitation.
