Interior FIAP Paris

FIAP

14th district

Danièle says “This is a by-product of French social policies of the late 60’s and a desire to welcome both foreign groups for long-term stays (language learning) and professionals for short stays and not just be a Youth Hostel. Rooms go from individual rooms with ensuites to 6-bed dorms with their own ensuite or bathroom in the corridor. Small desk Wi-Fi everywhere, buffet breakfast, cafeteria for lunch and dinner at reasonable cost by Paris standards, various activities, night club on weekends, but also meeting rooms, small garden, table tennis and table football, and a full bar. On a tucked away street but still ask for a room NOT on the street. Excellent location in the 14th arrondissement (district) with 3 metro stops minutes away on line 6 as well as the bus and train (RER) going to both Paris airports.”
