Summary: 


I received a lot of email responces as a result of the last posting.
Obviuosly there are a lot of people planning to go Paris in the near 
future.



    Hotels:
        L'Office de Tourisme de Paris 
        127, Champs-Elysees - 75008 PARIS 
        Metro: Etoil
        telephone: +33 (1) 723.61.72   Telex 611984
            Provides a booklet with the address of more than 1000
            hotels in Paris. It includes prices, addresses, 
            categories (number of stars) and ...
            Ask for "Guide des Hotels de Paris".
            The following is a list of the ones that I have been to
            and have liked.

        Hotel Du Rond-Point do Longchamp  ***nn
        86, rue de Longchamp - 75116 PARIS
        Metro: Trocadero
        Telephone +33 (1) 505.13.63
            This is a modern, clean and good hotel. If you make to Paris
            via CDG airport, take the navette (bus) to Port Maillot and 
            then take a taxi. It is also very central.
            Prices Range from 350FF to 370FF. Breakfast 26FF.

        Comete Hotel  *nn
        15, rue de la Comete- 75007 PARIS
        Metro: La Tour-Maubourg 
        Telephone +33 (1) 705.08.53
            This is traditional one star French hotel. It is cheap,
            with out toilet and shower it starts at 67FF. (~$7)
            With toilet and shower it is about 190FF. Breakfast 13FF.
            It is a clean and SAFE hotel. This one is also very central.
            Mention that you heard about them through the BANAN family.
            Remember one or two star French hotels are not very comfortable
            by American standards. 

        Plaisance Hotel *nn
        53, rue de Gergovie, 75014 PARIS
        Metro: Pernety
        Telephone +33 (1) 542.11.39
            Same story as Comete Hotel.

    Restaurants:
        You can find decent and cheap food in almost any cafe that 
        serves food. 

        Drug-Store on Champs-Elysees  is good. When you find yourself
        hungry there, and do not want to spend a lot and yet get good
        food, that would be one place.

        There are a lot of good French, greek and north African
        restaurants close to Place St. Michel. 
        This is the one I liked best:

        Le View Paris, 
        9, Rue Saint Severin
        Paris 5iem 
        Telephone: +33 (1) 326.96.52
