12 Of The Best Family-Friendly Hotels In Paris To Book In 2026

Paris is synonymous with romance, but it turns out, it’s pretty great for families, too. Between Disneyland adventures, iconic sights and a little everyday magic, there’s plenty here to keep kids (and parents) happy.

But deciding which ‘arrondissement’ ( translation = sexy French word for district) to stay in Paris with kids can be confusing. We get it! For Eiffel Tower views and riverside strolls, the 7th arrondissement is a favourite, while the 8th arrondissement puts you close to the Champs-Élysées and the Arc de Triomphe. To escape the tourist crush, head to Le Marais or Saint-Germain-des-Prés for boutiques, cafes and relaxed lunches, or wander Montmartre before taking in the views from Sacré-Cœur.

Now that you’ve got the neighbourhoods down pat, here are 12 of the best family-friendly hotels in Paris to book right now.

BEST HOTELS IN PARIS FOR FAMILIES AT A GLANCE

61 Quai de Grenelle, 75015 Paris

Novotel Paris Centre Tour Eiffel

Say bonjour to Novotel Paris Centre Tour Eiffel — a family favourite just a short walk from the Eiffel Tower. With spacious rooms that sleep up to four, plus kids under 16 enjoy free breakfast and accommodation, it’s a fuss-free option for families.

The hotel features a heated indoor pool, play area, kids’ menu and lobby entertainment — ideal for tired little legs after a big day of sightseeing. Its central location makes exploring Paris with kids a breeze.

8 R. Bréguet, 75011 Paris

Maison Bréguet

Want A-list treatment for the whole fam? Maison Bréguet rolls out the red carpet. This chic boutique stay near Bastille offers soundproofed rooms (great news if you bub still day-naps) and family-friendly layouts, plus the option to book its standout three-bedroom private house with its own garden — a rarity in Paris.  The best bit? Babysitting can also be booked through the hotel if you fancy a date night in the City of Love!

Parents will appreciate the on-site restaurant, complimentary prams, bar and wellness area (spa, sauna and steam room), while kids benefit from spacious rooms, a pool, and easy walks to parks, bakeries and metro lines.

6 Rue Gambetta, 93400 Saint-Ouen-sur-Seine

Mob Hotel

This quirky, cool stay on the northern edge of Paris feels like a suburban oasis just moments from the Clignancourt flea markets. MOB Hotel Paris Les Puces is refreshingly family-friendly, with flexible room options (including extra mattresses or sofa beds), a sprawling garden terrace for outdoor movies in summer, plus table tennis, a library and space for kids to roam.

Sundays are a highlight with children under six eating free at the hotel’s organic, all-you-can-eat Mediterranean brunch, while kids aged six to 12 dine at a reduced rate.

112 Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, 75008

Le Bristol Paris

Le Bristol Paris is the gold standard for family-friendly luxury in Paris. An icon of French art de vivre, it offers around 190 elegant rooms and suites, a 1,200-square-metre private garden, and one of the city’s few rooftop swimming pools — a guaranteed hit with kids.

Set just off Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré near the Champs-Élysées, it’s a dream base for families, complete with a Bonpoint spa collaboration for whole-family pampering, creative play spaces and thoughtful family extras. Book the family package, and little guests are spoiled with a plush rabbit, a mini bathrobe, and a Paris-inspired activity kit. Fantastique!

3 Rue de Jarente, 75004

Hôtel Jeanne d’Arc Le Marais

Just because you’ve travelled with your rugrats doesn’t mean you should miss out on staying in Paris’s coolest neighbourhood—the Marais, full of bold street art, boutique stores and to die for eateries. The modern, sleek and minimalist rooms at Hotel Jeanne d’Arc are both comfortable and trendy whilst being somewhat affordable for this part of Paris. The family room fits up to four and provides a great base for exploring with nearby sights like the Place des Vosges, Rue des Rosiers, Jewish quarter and the Notre-Dame Cathedral all within walking distance. The bar is open 24/7 for when you just can’t go past a tipple and an excellent French breakfast is served on the daily with croissants, fresh bread and butter, orange juice and hot drinks.

13 Rue Nungesser et Coli, 75016

Molitor Hôtel & Spa Paris

Off the beaten path of Paris, Hôtel Molitor is a family-friendly paradise with its Art Deco pools that deserve at least one lazy day at the hotel. There’s connecting rooms for big families, all of which look over the heated 46-metre pool and there’s a mini indoor 33-metre version for those chilly Winter mornings. The fam can get geared up for tennis at Roland-Garros (aka the French Open), football (soccer) at Stade Jean Bouin, pedal-boating or running laps around the Bois de Boulogne park right across the road.

Private coaching lessons are available for heaps of sports and for those that seek a little more relaxation, the Spa by Clarins with its sauna and steam room are all sorts of dreamy. The rooftop terrace offers cocktails and light dining throughout the warmer months and the brasserie offers up authentic and tasty French cuisine year-round. 

2 Rue des Deux Gares, 75010

Hôtel Les Deux Gares

If train travel around Europe is on the cards, look no further. This funky (and rather fabulous) hotel has unparalleled access to the Eurostar and your family will thank you for not having to drag your cases through the streets of Pari. Two connecting rooms sleep up to six people with great views over the rooftops and buildings of Paris. Kitted out by flamboyant British designer Luke Edward Hall, the hotel’s theme is totally in touch with his inner child, pairing Crayola colours and clashing prints—this one’s certainly for the cool kids. Our recommendation? Choose the room with the deep tub in the chequerboard bathroom so you can soak the day away after the kids have splashed up a storm.

273 Av. Daumesnil, 75012

Hotel De La Porte Dorée

The pretty yet simplistic rooms at Hotel de la Porte are seriously good value and the hotel has been designed with families in mind thanks to the owners’ experience of travelling with kids. Each room has its own toy basket and the team here is dedicated to making sure your kids have the best time possible in Paris. You can quite literally ask the hotel for just about any kids supplies from babysitting to foam corner guards for furniture and bottle warmers—the list is as long as your arm.

The vegetarian breakfast features organic and fair trade products with fresh-pressed orange juice, a coffee machine, homemade organic fruit salads and cereals, breads, pastries, jams and salads. For a spot of protein, there’s organic eggs, locally sourced yoghurts and local cheeses.

10 Rue Troyon, 75017

Hotel Dadou

This boutique, retro style hotel has one impressive secret feature—a whirlpool Roman bath with a cinema screen for guests to rent at any time throughout the day until midnight. That’s right: you and the kids can sit back amidst the jets of the pool while watching your favourite movie. You’d be justified for expecting the best parent award after a stay here. When a moment of solitude awaits, adults can sneak down to use the terracotta hammam for a rejuvenating break as you steam any leftover stress away. The tree-lined courtyard provides plenty of fresh air and the continental and American breakfast buffet is sure to impress even the fussiest of eaters.

69 Rue Blanche, 75009

Hotel Joke

This is not a joke…this completely quirky hotel is actually one of the greatest in Paris for those wandering the world with their kids, and somehow, it’s on the budget friendly end of accommodation—something that’s pretty much unheard of in the city of lights. The hotel has a comedic theme and each room is playful, colourful and stocked full of toys.

The hotel is a three-minute walk to the Moulin Rouge (if you happen to get a babysitter), major department stores and the metro which will take you to just about every attraction. There’s also a free minibar with non-alcoholic drinks and arvo and evening snacks every day in the lobby.

52 Rue Galilée, 75008

Hotel Ekta Champs Elysées

Hotel Etka is conveniently situated just a stone's throw from the ultimate Champs Elysees shopping trip and the Arc de Triomphe, the landmark at the world’s craziest roundabout that’s with a spot on your sightseeing list. With 25 luxury rooms, the hotel’s unique personality and 70s atmosphere shines through within all of the details. On the top floor of the hotel, the Terraces Suite is designed to be a home away from home and includes a terrace overlooking the Champs-Elysees, a separate area with a sofa bed and a private bedroom. Some of the rooms even have double bunk beds so there’s plenty of room for activities.

34 Rue de l'Arbalète, 75005

Pepper And Paper Apartments

The Pepper and Paper Apartments are managed like a hotel and best suited for a large group or family with an abundance of space for that busy travelling fam. In the heart of Paris, it’s rare to find such a good garden complete with deckchairs, a pizza oven and ping-pong tables. It would be wrong not to entertain and throw a dinner party while you’re here. Inside you’ll find a kitchen that’s begging to be cooked in and an oh-so important coffee machine, living area and TV. There’s one or two bedroom suites and you can even hire board games and gaming consoles, visit a fully stocked grocery store and access a laundry facility—vital when travelling with gremlins for a long time.
