Our favorite Paris hotels for families

1. Brach | A hotel for families in Paris design

A former postal sorting center turned living space in its own right, Brach Paris is unlike any other Paris hotel. Designed by Philippe Starck for Evok Collection, this five-star hotel in Paris 16th cultivates a singular atmosphere, part sophisticated family home, part hushed urban club. It's like entering someone's home, and this is undoubtedly what immediately appeals to families looking for a hotel where they never feel cramped.

Right from the common areas, the Brach imposes an immediately enveloping atmosphere. Light flows freely between the volumes, underlined by a play of warm, raw materials dominated by mahogany wood, weathered leathers, marble and thick textiles. Far from the coldness sometimes associated with design hotels, the place exudes an almost domestic sense of comfort. Everywhere, works of art, unusual objects, books and antique pieces catch the eye and invite curiosity, as if in an inhabited home where every detail has been carefully chosen.

The uniqueness of the premises extends to the 59 rooms (from 25 to 37m2), including 6 suites (from 60 to 210 m2). Bathed in soft light, they echo the aesthetic codes of the common areas, with the same taste for noble materials and warm tones. The bathrooms are the focal point of the ensemble. Spacious, punctuated by large mirrors and enhanced by wooden ceilings, they combine marble with a particularly meticulous use of light, transforming these functional spaces into veritable places of relaxation. Most suites feature large terraces with Norwegian baths or Jacuzzis and views of the Eiffel Tower, and can be connected to each other or to other rooms, offering the space and configuration best suited to a family. Families book their stay for the Petit Brach program, where children are pampered like little princes. At the hotel, in the gardens or in nearby museums, children discover playful and cultural activities at their own level.

The little plus: One of the most beautiful rooftops in Paris, a veritable plant parenthesis perched high above the city, as well as the hotel's patisserie, whose elegant, gourmet creations quickly become a must-try during your stay.

2. Le Littré | A chic, central pied-à-terre

An independent address handed down from generation to generation for over a century, Le Littré embodies a certain idea of Parisian hospitality, warm and unostentatious. In the 1950s and 1960s, it was a meeting place where diplomats, travelers and intellectuals met in a lively atmosphere, punctuated by Jazz and Rhythm & Blues. A discreet but still perceptible heritage, which contributes to the singular charm of the place. Situated between Montparnasse and Saint-Germain-des-Prés, this hotel with family suite in Paris attracts today's tribes in search of a chic, comfortable and central pied-à-terre, far from the effects of fashion.

The 90 rooms and suites, all different, offer generous volumes, discreet luxury and an intimate atmosphere, a rarity in this sought-after Left Bank district. Some open onto terraces or offer views over the rooftops of Paris, the Eiffel Tower or Les Invalides. The suites, including the Terrasse Tour Eiffel and the signature Littré, reinforce the feeling of staying in a Parisian apartment, with a furnished living room, dressing room and spaces designed to combine elegance and everyday comfort. The décor, refined and contemporary, favors comfort and functionality, two essential qualities when traveling with the family.

Children under 12 can stay free of charge in their parents' room, from the Superior category upwards. We've thought of everything so that parents can make the most of their stay: baby cots and high chairs for the little ones, adapted TV programs and the possibility of having children looked after for a few hours thanks to a baby-sitting service.

The little extra: the bar and its winter garden, a haven of calm after a day of sightseeing, where parents can extend the evening while the children relax upstairs.

3. Le Cinq Codet | The relaxed alternative to palaces

Behind its Art Deco architecture, the former 1930s telephone exchange has been converted into a luxury hotel with a resolutely contemporary atmosphere. Le Cinq Codet, designed by Jean-Philippe Nuel, is an elegant alternative to the traditional palaces of the 7th arrondissement, thanks to its more relaxed approach, perfectly suited to large families.

With 67 rooms and suites of various types, the hotel offers a wide range of family-friendly configurations. The Junior Suites, often duplexes, seduce with their generous volumes, warm decor and apartment feel. Communicating Family Rooms, true urban refuges, link two distinct universes while preserving the intimacy of each, with two bathrooms and extra beds to accommodate up to five people. Each light-filled space combines comfort, aesthetics and functionality, inviting families to relax and enjoy shared moments without constraints.

Special attention is paid to children: in-room teepees, board games, creative hobbies and coloring books transform the stay into a soft, playful experience for the youngest guests.

When it comes to gastronomy, Le Cinq Codet does not disappoint. Right from the morning, the Chiquette breakfast enchants with golden viennoiseries, steaming coffees and homemade delicacies. In the evening, the patio is transformed into a lively, bucolic setting, where cocktails and creative dishes take your taste buds on a journey of international influences.

The little extra: the spa with outdoor jacuzzi, a real haven of calm for parents after a day spent roaming the streets of the capital.

A family-friendly hotel ideal for those who love lively places where you can share much more than just a night.

The 63 rooms, decorated by Michael Malapert, take up the codes of the Parisian apartment: herringbone parquet flooring, moldings, velvet, twisted with pop and arty touches. The hotel also boasts three suites, including two junior suites, located under the rooftops, with views of the Palais Garnier. Of these, the Anamour suite, a tribute to Serge Gainsbourg, is the largest: it has a recording studio atmosphere, with portraits of Brigitte Bardot and Jane Birkin on the walls, a piano and a selection of the artist's vinyl records. Each room and suite boasts modern amenities designed for the comfort of all: air-conditioning, safe, mini-fridge, Japanese toilet and connected TV.

On weekends, brunch has been designed as a real family lunch: roast free-range chicken, confit potatoes and a children's menu with a kids' club from age 3, supervised by an animator, so that everyone can make the most of the moment. Throughout the week, the Guinguette restaurant invites you to share simple, generous, seasonal dishes on large wooden tables, in a warm, friendly atmosphere. Charcuterie by the slice, mature cheeses, seafood... Plates that delight young and old alike!
