What is the best and worst quarters of Paris, France?
Q. I don't mean in terms of tourism. I mean by the area itself. I want to rent a chambre d'hôte in Paris. But I want a place that is in a relatively quiet neighborhood, very non-tourist, friendly, and definitely has that French charm. What is the best quarter to stay in? Also, what are the worst quarters to stay/be in?
A. You'll see tourists everywhere in Paris but much less at residential neighbourhoods.
Considering all you mention, I think that the 17th district would be the best. It's quiet, safe, smart without being snob. Some streets are noisy because there are many stores (avenue de Ternes, rue de Courcelles, avenue de Wagram, rue de Lévis) but even those streets are very nice. Part of the 17th is not good, avoid the area around tube stations : Porte de Saint Ouen, Guy Môquet, la Fourche, place de Clichy.
The 15th district is residential and nice though probably has a bit less charm but it's a typic parisian neighbourhood where many families with children live and it's safe. No tourists.
The 16th is nice, residential, absolutely safe, very smart, quiet (most of all the South part of the district, tube stations : Ranelagh, porte de la Muette, maison de la Radio, Mirabeau, Ãglise d'Auteuil, it's less quiet at tube stations : Trocadero and Victor Hugo - but still lots more quiet than the heart of Paris). Avoid tube stations : Foch and Porte Dauphine.
The worst neighbourhoods : In general, avoid the area around 2 train stations : Gare du Nord and Gare de l'Est, avoid also staying around the Porte de Clignancourt (18th district), Pigalle, Barbes, Porte de la Chapelle.

How can I book a 5 star hotel room?
Q. I am planning to book a hotel room in a 5 star hotel in another city that I will be travelling from. My plan is to travel from my city by a cab at 3 A.M. and then get to the hote by 6 A.M. and stay a few hours in the hotel refreshing myself , then leaving to the airport. I want to know how can I book for a room. and would it be a problem to book for an early time like wut i planned for ( from 6-10 A.M.)
A. A 5 star hotel would usually have checkout at 11 am, maybe 12 noon. For instance, one I looked up had checkin from 3pm, checkout as late as 12 noon. (Look up the specific hotel you have in mind to check). That means you have that room for as much or as little of that 21 hours that you want. Checking in at 6am is not a problem at a 5 star motel, so long as you don't mind paying a full night's tariff when you're only going to use it for 4 hours.
