Im 16 and was wondering how old do you have to be to stay in a hostel or hotel in france?

Question

Ive heard that they require someone to be 18 in the party

Answer 1

While I don't know how old you have to be to stay in a youth hostel in France, I believe your best bet would be to contact the "Fédération Unie des Auberges de Jeunesse" (United Federation of Youth Hostels) directly:

Centre National FUAJ - F.F. / HI

27 rue Pajol

75018 Paris

Tél. : 0033-1 44 89 87 27

Fax : [phone]

E-mail : [e-mail]

Answer 2

My understanding is that the age of majority in France is 18. Someone younger than 18 therefore cannot enter into a contractual agreement.

Renting a hotel room is a form of contract.

While it might not be illegal for a hotel to rent you a room they would take the risk that you would not pay. damage the room and refuse responsibility, or otherwise cost them money.

The simplest thing would be to have a responsible adult contact whatever hotel you are planning on staying in and explain the situation to the manager. perhaps something could be worked out.

Answer 3

you could always call the hotel and ask them
