Apartments, apartment-hotels and bed and breakfast
France > Paris > Hotels > Apartments
Rented apartments and apartment-hotels – a hotel made up of mini apartments each with its own self-contained kitchen – are attractive alternatives for families with young children who want a bit more independence and the option to do their own catering, and also for visitors who are planning an extended stay. Staying on a bed and breakfast basis in a private house is also worth considering if you want to get away from the more impersonal set-up of a hotel and is a reasonably priced option.
