Hotel Centrale Byron is seventh, and it's the one that tells you its price. Its 2026 rate page lists bed and breakfast from €100 to €125 (about US$110–140) for an economy double, up to €148 to €165 (about US$165–185) for a quadruple, with service and VAT in and the €2 (about US$2) tourist tax on top.
That's rare here. Most of the twelve print nothing, so you can budget the Byron before you call.
