There are probably several hundred hotels within the 'core' of Paris which meet those criteria. No hotel in central Paris will be more than 550 meters from a Metro station. You might get more meaningfull recommendations and suggestions if you provided a price range per night for a hotel.....and any special interests or needs that you or your son might have? As an example, the RITZ (4-star deluxe) on Place Vendome and the HOTEL SAINT ANDRE des ARTS (1-star) on rue Saint Andre des Arts are each nice places and might suit. As a broad general rule, a Paris 2-star will run from 75-to-150 ���; a 3-star from 150--to-250 ��� per night and a 4-star and 4-star deluxe will run skyward from that. Time of year of travel is also a factor. If you want a hotel with air conditioning in high summer (not a bad idea) you may have to look at 3 and 4-star properties, since relatively few 2-stars offer this amenity.
