Our Favorite Family-Friendly Hotels in Paris

1. Brach | A Family-Friendly Design Hotel in Paris

A former postal sorting center transformed into a living space in its own right, Brach Paris is unlike any other hotel in Paris. Designed by Philippe Starck for Evok Collection, this five-star hotel in Paris’s 16th arrondissement cultivates a unique atmosphere—part sophisticated family home, part hushed urban club. It’s like stepping into 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 creates an atmosphere that immediately envelops you. Light flows freely through the spaces, accentuated by a blend of warm, natural materials—primarily mahogany wood, weathered leather, marble, and thick textiles. Far from the coldness sometimes associated with design hotels, the place exudes an almost home-like sense of comfort. Everywhere, works of art, unusual objects, books, and antique pieces catch the eye and spark curiosity, as if in a lived-in home where every detail has been carefully chosen.

The property’s uniqueness extends to its 59 rooms (ranging from 25 to 37 m²), including 6 suites (ranging from 60 to 210 m²). Bathed in soft light, they echo the aesthetic of the common areas, featuring the same taste for fine materials and warm tones. The bathrooms are the focal point of the entire space. Spacious, with large mirrors and accented by wooden ceilings, they combine marble with a particularly meticulous use of light, transforming these functional spaces into true havens of relaxation. Most suites feature large terraces with Norwegian baths or Jacuzzis and views of the Eiffel Tower, and can be connected to one another or to other rooms, offering the space and layout best suited for a family. Families book their stay through the Petit Brach program, where children are pampered like little princes. Whether at the hotel, in the gardens, or at nearby museums, children discover fun and cultural activities tailored to their age group.

The little extra: One of the most beautiful rooftops in Paris —a lush oasis 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. Plaza Tour Eiffel | A 4-star hotel near the Trocadéro popular with families

Just a few minutes’ walk from the Trocadéro, the Plaza Tour Eiffel offers something quite rare in this highly touristic neighborhood: a cozy, 4-star boutique hotel nestled on a quiet residential street in the 16th arrondissement. Owned by the Marang family since 2005, the hotel is part of the Paristory Hôtels Collection, now managed by sisters Alexandra and Julie Marang, along with the Prince de Conti, the Grand Powers, and the Grand Hôtel du Palais Royal.

The Plaza Tour Eiffel features 41 rooms and suites, with a contemporary design where golden yellow, sky blue, and wood reign supreme. But its most compelling feature is the view: on the fifth and sixth floors, several rooms have balconies offering a view of the Eiffel Tower. The Junior Suites, on the top floor, include a living area with a sofa bed and can accommodate up to three people.

For a family stay in Paris, the hotel offers comfortable accommodations that are significantly less cramped than the Parisian average. The Deluxe Family Rooms measure up to 40 m² and accommodate four people ; the Executive Rooms can accommodate three guests, and cribs are available in several room categories.

There is no restaurant, but there is a 24-hour lounge bar and a breakfast buffet served from 7 a.m. to 11 a.m. in a lounge with a wide-open view of the outdoors, with room service available. The hotel also features a fitness center with treadmills, stationary bikes, elliptical trainers, weight training equipment, yoga props, and a personal trainer available upon request. For the spa, guests must leave the hotel. The Plaza Tour Eiffel has partnered with Villa Thalgo & Spa, located on Avenue Raymond-Poincaré near the Trocadéro, where guests can take advantage of special offers. This is a great hotel for exploring Paris with the family, while enjoying a street that’s noticeably quieter in the evening than the major thoroughfares nearby.

A nice bonus for families: Two true connecting rooms with a private entrance and two bathrooms—much more comfortable when getting ready in the morning.

3. Le Littré | A chic, centrally located pied-à-terre

An independent establishment passed down from generation to generation for over a century, Le Littré embodies a certain ideal of Parisian hospitality—warm and unpretentious. In the 1950s and 1960s, it was a gathering place where diplomats, travelers, and intellectuals came together in a lively atmosphere filled with jazz and rhythm & blues. A discreet yet still palpable legacy that contributes to the place’s unique charm. Located between Montparnasse and Saint-Germain-des-Prés, this Paris hotel—featuring a family suite—attracts today’s travelers seeking a chic, comfortable, and central pied-à-terre, far from the whims of fashion.

The 90 rooms and suites, each unique, offer spacious layouts, understated luxury, and an intimate atmosphere—a rarity in this sought-after Left Bank neighborhood. Some open onto terraces or offer views of the Paris rooftops, the Eiffel Tower, or Les Invalides. The suites, including the Terrasse Tour Eiffel and the signature Littré, enhance the feeling of staying in a Parisian apartment, with a furnished living room, dressing room, and spaces designed to blend elegance with everyday comfort. The refined, contemporary décor prioritizes comfort and functionality—two essential qualities when traveling with the family.

Children under 12 can stay free of charge in their parents’ room in Superior-category rooms or higher. We’ve thought of everything so that parents can make the most of their stay: cribs and high chairs for the little ones, age-appropriate TV programs, and the option to have children looked after for a few hours through our babysitting service.

That little extra: the bar and its winter garden, a peaceful retreat after a day of sightseeing, where parents can enjoy a longer evening while the children relax upstairs.

4. Grand Hôtel du Palais Royal | A Central, Family-Friendly 5-Star Boutique Hotel

Just a stone’s throw from the Louvre, between the Palais-Royal gardens and Rue de Valois, the Grand Hôtel du Palais Royal’s greatest asset is its location: one of the most desirable in Paris. This 5-star boutique hotel boasts an exceptional location in the heart of historic Paris. The neighborhood is perfect for exploring on foot, from the galleries of the Palais-Royal to the Tuileries, with the Seine, the Opéra Garnier, and the major department stores all within easy reach.

The Grand Hôtel du Palais Royal caters to families—a rarity among hotels in this category in central Paris (excluding luxury palaces). The Junior Suites, ranging from 32 to 40 m², feature a sofa bed, as do the 32 m² Suites and the 40 m² Prestige Suites, some of which have a separate living room. The hotel also offers several connecting rooms, which are convenient for families with teenagers. In addition, there’s a personalized welcome for younger guests, with activity books and toys available, a babysitting service upon request, and a Clefs d’Or concierge team that can organize activities suitable for all ages. A real plus for this hotel, just a stone’s throw from the Palais-Royal Gardens, the Louvre, and the Tuileries.

Bonus: The terrace at Café 52, located on the peaceful Place de Valois, is perfect for lunch or brunch while the kids enjoy this pedestrian-only square.

5. Le Cinq Codet | The relaxed alternative to palaces

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

With 67 rooms and suites of various types, the hotel offers a wide range of family-friendly options. The Junior Suites, often duplexes, charm guests with their spacious layouts, warm decor, and apartment-like feel. Connecting Family Rooms, true urban retreats, bridge two distinct spaces while preserving the privacy of each, featuring two bathrooms and extra beds to accommodate up to five people. Each light-filled space combines comfort, style, and functionality, inviting families to relax and enjoy time together without constraints.

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

When it comes to dining, Le Cinq Codet does not disappoint. Starting first thing in the morning, the Chiquette breakfast delights with golden pastries, steaming coffee, and homemade treats. In the evening, the patio is transformed into a lively, bucolic setting, where cocktails and creative dishes take your taste buds on a journey through international flavors.

The little extra: the spa with an outdoor hot tub, a true haven of calm for parents after a day spent exploring the streets of the capital.

6. Prince de Conti | Grand Siècle

Paristory Hotels Collection, a family-run hotel group led by sisters Alexandra and Julie Marang, has opened its fourth Parisian property here, following the Grand Powers, the Grand Hôtel du Palais Royal, and the Plaza Tour Eiffel. The group has chosen not to recreate a 17th-century private mansion exactly as it was, but rather to capture its spirit of freedom, sociability, and whimsy. This hotel also appeals to families thanks to its connecting rooms, suites that can accommodate up to four people, and duplexes designed like true apartments. 

Where? Just a few meters from the Pont Neuf, between the Monnaie de Paris and the streets of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, the Prince de Conti is located in the heart of Paris’s 6th arrondissement, in a neighborhood steeped in history. It was very close to here, at the corner of Rue de Seine and Rue de Mazarine, that Molière founded the Illustre Théâtre with Madeleine Béjart in 1643. It was also in this area that the former Hôtel de Conti once stood, the residence of the princely family that counted among the playwright’s patrons. This rich history shapes the identity of this 4-star boutique hotel, featuring 23 rooms and suites.

The interior design was entrusted to Éric Allart, an interior architect, designer, and antique dealer. Wood paneling, fireplaces, trompe-l’œil painted ceilings, Pierre Frey fabrics, and furniture inspired by the Grand Siècle come together to create a lavish decor, interspersed with more contemporary touches. 

The 23 rooms and suites follow this same decorative style, ranging in size from 14 to 31 m². The Superior and Deluxe rooms, ranging from 14 to 16 m², accommodate one or two guests and overlook Rue Guénégaud or the inner courtyard, which has been transformed into a contemporary grove; some feature a terrace, including one room accessible to guests with limited mobility. The 25-square-meter Duplex Suites are spread over two levels, with a living room and bathroom on the first level and a bedroom upstairs. The 31-square-meter suites include a separate living room with a sofa bed and can accommodate up to four people. The Terrace Suite, which is the same size, features a tree-lined outdoor area and a marble bathroom with a separate shower and bathtub, while another suite on the upper floor offers a view of the Institut de France and the Monnaie de Paris.

7. Chouchou Hotel | Fun and Friendly

Just a stone's throw from the Opera and department stores, the Chouchou reimagines the family-run hotel with a joyful, uninhibited energy. Part of the Elegancia collection (OFF Paris Seine, Hôtel Crayon, Boudoir des Muses...), this hotel fosters a homey atmosphere where a warm, welcoming spirit takes precedence, set against a backdrop that blends references to French pop culture, artisanal craftsmanship, and playful touches. A family-friendly hotel ideal for those who love lively places where you can share much more than just a night.

The 63 rooms, designed by Michael Malapert, embody the style of a Parisian apartment: herringbone parquet flooring, moldings, and velvet, infused with pop and artistic touches. The hotel also features 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 the feel of a recording studio, 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 features modern amenities designed for everyone’s comfort: air conditioning, a safe, a mini-fridge, a Japanese-style toilet, and a smart TV.

On weekends, brunch is designed as a true family meal: roast free-range chicken, confit potatoes, and a children’s menu with a kids’ club for children ages 3 and up, supervised by an activity leader, so that everyone can enjoy the moment to the fullest. Throughout the week, the Guinguette restaurant invites you to enjoy simple, hearty, seasonal dishes at large wooden tables in a warm, friendly atmosphere. Charcuterie by the slice, aged cheeses, seafood… Dishes that delight young and old alike!

The little extra: three private bathrooms, bookable by the hour, featuring a rain shower, a separate sound system, and a bench for relaxing in the evening.

8. Sofitel Paris Baltimore Tour Eiffel | For the sense of service

Housed in an elegant Haussmann-style building in the 16th arrondissement, the Sofitel Paris Baltimore Tour Eiffel combines classic luxury with an acute sense of service. Just a stone's throw from the Trocadéro, this historic hotel attracts families seeking an upscale, seamless, and reassuring stay, with Paris as a backdrop and the Eiffel Tower in full view.

With 103 rooms, including 28 suites, the hotel offers a wide selection of connecting rooms and, above all, the impressive 110 m² Suite Eiffel Famille, which can accommodate up to ten people. Three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a separate lounge, and a direct view of the Iron Lady combine to create a spectacular setting, designed for large families.

From the moment they arrive, children are greeted with a warm, imaginative welcome. To encourage them to explore away from screens, the hotel has created its own coloring book. The stay is free for children up to 3 years of age, and discounts are available for children aged 4 to 12, with free breakfast for children up to 11 years of age when sharing a room with their parents.

The Lordy’s Paris Club, named after the fictional Lord Baltimore—after whom the hotel is named—transports guests between London, Paris, and New York in a refined British clubhouse atmosphere. Chef Damien Gomes blends Parisian dishes with reimagined British classics. For children, the Menu du Petit Lord offers kid-friendly gourmet dishes: perfectly prepared egg and carrot purée, linguine with tomato sauce, fish and chips, or steak frites—not to mention ice cream and madeleines.

The little extra: Lordy’s Bar, shaped like a horseshoe as a nod to polo players, features a terrace when the weather is nice.
