After the very special period that we have just experienced, the behavior of travelers has changed and hotels have adapted, in France as in the world. Indeed, it was customary to ask for advance payment for a hotel room reservation, but nowadays it is common practice to book a hotel in Paris without paying up front. As are the cancellation flexibilities or contactless payment. Let’s take a look at these new practices and the new rates offered by the Hotel des 2 Continents. 😉
Why book a hotel in Paris without paying ?
Travel uncertainties
L’année 2020 a montré que les certitudes n’avaient plus lieu d’être en matière de voyage. Une réservation d’hôtel pouvait se faire en non annulable et non remboursable, tout comme le billet d’avion ou de train. Le séjour se ferait puisqu’il en était décidé ainsi. Aujourd’hui, nous savons que des événements exceptionnels peuvent venir bouleverser nos projets. Ainsi, il est tout à fait normal d’envisager une annulation de dernière minute.
Book a room for another person
It often happens that the hotel guest is not the one who made the reservation. In most cases, payment is made on site by the person who occupied the room. This greatly simplifies the process since with a prepayment, it would be necessary to reimburse the card used when booking before requesting a second payment. Rather complex as a procedure!
Cash flow and budget
For example, for online hotel reservations several months in advance, you may not want to incur your expenses, which are always significant when it comes to accommodation, at the time of booking. Your trip is booked, but you will pay all related costs on site. This is the principle of “Book your hotel now and pay later”. The method of payment can also be different on site.

You have the option to book on the official hotel website, call the hotel reception or send an email to reserve rooms. You will need to use a credit card for your hotel reservation. However, it is not possible to make a reservation without a credit card. It is necessary for a small hotel like ours to have a guarantee. As there are many cancellations, we have greatly reduced the cancellation deadlines without charge, but after these deadlines, one night is charged. The conditions are the same for an online reservation on reservation sites.
It is also possible to book a room with the hotelier for the day if you wish to work from home or simply for day use. Just to clarify, we do not offer apartment or studio rentals. Please do not hesitate to contact the hotel reception on 01 43 26 72 46 for more information.
