I've been running Freewheeling France for more than 10 years and, in that time, there has been one email that intermittently pops into my inbox: "I'm arriving into/passing through/leaving from Paris. Where can I safely store my bike/bike box?" Now I have a very good answer: Hotel de La Porte Dorée will store bikes and boxes free of charge for its guests. It is in the 12th arrondissement, near the glorious Bois de Vincennes park and forest, on the Metro line to the Eiffel Tower, and close to Gare de Paris Bercy and Paris Gare de Lyon (for trains from Burgundy/Dijon and Lyon Part Dieu); by bike, you can get here from Gare du Nord or Montparnasse in under half an hour; the EuroVelo 3 route passes nearby. The hotel is owned by Laurent and Christina, a Franco-US team who cycle to work having dropped their three kids off at school en route. It's a certified eco-friendly hotel that's endeavouring to go 100% plastic free. They compost, use vegetable-based paint and all their breakfast products are organic. "We are making a huge effort to reduce our use of resources as much as possible," says Christina. They also have their own small fleet of hotel bikes. There's a large basement storage room for bikes and bike boxes (though they can also be taken to your room if you prefer). There's also a courtyard for daytime storage. If you're starting your trip in Paris before heading off elsewhere, they're happy to store your bike box free of charge until you get back. Free wifi. This is without a doubt top-of-the-list if you need somewhere to stay with your bike in Paris.

I stayed here the last time I was in Paris with my bike. Hotel Gavarni is a friendly, character-filled hotel (the lift stops on half-floors, so I was on floor three-and-a-half(!) It's located a handy ride from Gare Saint-Lazare, where many trains come into from the north of France (I was coming from Normandy). Better still, it’s just across the river from the Eiffel Tower, a short walk from the Trocadéro gardens and an easy walk to the Champs-Élysées; a few blocks away is the vast expanse of the Bois de Boulogne. I was astounded to find this affordable, quality three-star hotel so close to key attractions. Family rooms available; the posher rooms have views of the top of the Eiffel Tower, though my budget room was perfectly functionable and quiet (no city noise coming through the window). Free wifi. The hotel also has a green policy: everything is recycled, it uses renewable energy and eco-friendly detergents. My bike was safely tucked away to the side of the reception area. We've stayed here – read our review.
