Paris Forum: taxi costs?

 taxi costs? 

I need to go from Porte Maillot to a hotel near Sacre Coeur. I know with luggage, a taxi would be better than taking the metro. However, I'm on a budget trip and am wondering about the costs of taxis in Paris. It's only 6km, so hopefully it will not be too much, but I have no idea what the going rate is for taxis in Paris.

Depending on the time of day I'd throw a guess at €17.

From Porte Maillot to the Montmartre area during the day, my guess would be more like 10-12 €.

Using the Metro from PORTE MAILLOT would require taking the #1 Metro ligne (heading in the direction of Vincennes) to CONCORDE, then switching to the #12 Metro ligne (heading in the direction of Porte de la Chapelle) most likely to either the ABBESSES-Funicular or LAMARCK CAULAINCOURT stations as the closest to Sacré Coeur.

Unfortunately, the LAMARACK CAULAINCOURT Metro station is CLOSED for repair/renovation until approx June 16th....so the closest you may be able to get on the #12 ligne is ABBESSES-Funicular. The metro trip from Porte Maillot to Abbesses should take approx 20-22 mins (including wait-time & ligne transfer)

But that wouldn't include the charge for any bags in the boot/trunk right ?
