About the Author

Margo’s fascination and passion for travel are rooted in a background that reflects an incredible journey of triumph over tragedy. Abandoned at age four, Margo was raised in orphanages, where she remained until her late teens. She survived numerous episodes of abuse and through a resilient spirit managed to escape by reading about faraway places, educating herself in the process. She has traveled extensively throughout Europe, personally visiting each hotel listed in these guides. To call the "Hello" hotel guidebook series a "labor of love" is truly an understatement. Margo Classé’s life philosophy is simple: "Difficulties are opportunities to prove your greatness by overcoming them." So go ahead, take a chance, take a trip and have a fabulous time with the adventure. Margo and her husband, Tyrell, live in Los Angeles, California. --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

This review is from: Hello France! A Hotel Guide to Paris & 25 Other French Cities, $50-$90 (45-90 Euros) a Night for Two (Hello! Budget Hotel Guides) (Paperback)

This is the best book I've ever used for finding hotels in Paris and Mont-St. Michel. The rooms were great, clean, well located, and the detailed descriptions of each hotel and best rooms were greatly appreciated and right on the money.

I am the author of Eating & Drinking in France and I have used all of Margo Classe's guides, including Hello France! This guide is thorough and the author adds a personal touch when she describes in detail each hotel she has visited. Hello France! is a must for the independent, budget traveler.

This review is from: Hello France! A Hotel Guide to Paris & 25 Other French Cities, $50-$90 (45-90 Euros) a Night for Two (Hello! Budget Hotel Guides) (Paperback)

You don't need a roommate to share the cost of travel when you can stay in a delightful Paris hotel for just $50 per night, with a private bath. Margo Classe does our homework for us, finding the little gems that even travel agents don't know about. These are small, Mom & Pop places that are not even listed on the Internet. This book lists the charming, affordable hotels in cities throughout France. Each listing perfectly describes the place in great detail, giving contact info. Her other books do the same for Spain, Italy and Britain & Ireland. If only her books covered the world!
