Réunion Budget Hotels and Hostels
While accommodation in Réunion might not reach the stellar heights of Mauritius and the Seychelles, there is still plenty of choice. The smarter hotels tend to be concentrated around the coast and in the attractive mountain towns of Cilaos and Hell-Bourg. In the midrange bracket, there's a smattering of small family hotels and lots of chambres d'hôtes (B&Bs), the best of which offer good value for money. Budget travellers will find it hard to keep costs down in St-Denis and the coastal towns around St-Gilles-les-Bains, but elsewhere gîtes and the cheaper chambres d'hôtes fit the bill. Generally, for a double room you can expect to pay under €40 for budget accommodation, between €40 to €100 for midrange, and over €100 for top-end accommodation.
It is wise to book well in advance, particularly in high season (the mainland France and local school holidays, particularly July, August and around Christmas), when the best places fill up weeks, if not months, ahead. If you're planning a hiking trip in September or October, it's also imperative to book gîtes de montagnes as early as possible, as these months are the busiest and there's only a limited number of places available.
Each year, the Centrale de Réservation – Île de la Réunion, the former Maison de la Montagne et de la Mer, features updated listings of B&Bs, camp sites, gîtes d'étape and hotels.
