A couple of friends of mine in their 60's will be travelling to Paris
(France) on the 31st of August and spending 4 nights there. They wish
to stay in the Latin Quarter (or very close to it) and require
accommodation in this area. They would, if possible, like to restrict
their budget to less than 100 Euro's per night. I would like to
provide them with a list of approximately 10 hotels that meet this
criteria and have empty rooms over this period. Recommendations would
be great, but I would be happy for a list of URL's, prices and the
number of "stars" each place has.

Hello and thank you for your question.

Some of the following are based on personal experience; others I found
(by searching on "cheap sleeps paris" which is a book that you can
buy) at
http://www.medill.northwestern.edu/journalism/global/hotel.pdf
and from there, a New York Times list (registration required) at
http://travel2.nytimes.com/top/features/travel/destinations/europe/france/paris/hotel_listings.html?neighborhood=Latin%20Quarter%20%284%29&pricedesc=EUR%2080%20to%20EUR%20120

Availability should not be a problem since they arrive September 1 - -
July and August are usually the busy period for hotels that mainly
attract students and teachers.

Here are Latin Quarter choices (5th and 6th district), two stars and
under 100 euros.  The 5th is the official Latin Quarter, but the 6th,
also along the Left Bank, is generally a bit nicer.

Thanks for the prompt reply Richard-ga, it would have taken me half a
day to find a quarter of the information and web links you came up
with! Some of the sites you've listed will be useful for my research,
in the event that none of the listed accommodation is vacant. Cheers.

There is a site called http://www.FoxRates.com that list Hotels at up
to 75% off reccommended room rates Worldwide
