Help with Eurostar Train & AccommodationPackages

Hello, I%26#39;d really appreciate some advice with sourcing a Eurostar package - from London to Paris for 2 nights.





So far on the web I have found train %26amp; accomodation 2 night packges from between 117 - 130 punds per person however would like to get something for less than that if possible, perhaps 80p%26#39;s per person.





We%26#39;re not too fussed on the accomodation - were there to see Paris! Accomodation would need to be clean and reasonable perhaps 1 -2 Star.





Many thanks. P.

Given that the cheapest Eurostar tickets are £60, finding a package for £80pp is going to be near impossible. I don%26#39;t understand why you want to buy a package anyway? Just buy the train tickets from Eurostar.co.uk and use priceline or something for the hotel.

As noted, the lowest, round-trip fares are running 59 £ per person.....Given the difference, this amount to somewhere between 85-115 € per night for a hotel....which puts you within a comfrtable price range for a fair number of very well situated / located Parisian 2-stars. As examples (among many others)--





5eme--Latin Quarter

The hotel Est, which is the cheapest at £75 1 night or £99 2 nights is OK - the king of hotel a lot of US based tourist wouldnt like because it%26#39;s small and old (dont get shirty - you know youve seen those reviews)





I think the days of £80 2 day packages may be gone - although midweek packages using lastminute.com might thro something up

Thanks for your replies. It certainly helps - Was not aware of the individual rates for Eurostar. That 117 package looks quite good now!





I will check out the websites you guys have recommended also.
