10-15 euros tops for the ride.
enjoy Paris; it is awesome even in the heat of August.
Yes, I'm not particularly worried about money for taxi... I just figured the Paris Metro should be relatively easy as I have to deal with much more difficult Los Angeles Metro on a daily basis (we don't even have free transfers so you have to buy a separate ticket for every segment if you change lines ).

I guess whether I take Metro or taxi to the hotel will greatly depend on how Mrs bzcat feels after the train ride from London.

Thanks for all the input from everyone
