Hotel Mayet funky design
3 rue Mayet, 6ème • 01 47 83 21 35

furniture, primary colours and clean lines, and guests

are a perfect cocoon from the outside world. Moderate

Hotel du Quai Voltaire room with a view
19 quai Voltaire, 7ème • 01 42 61 50 91

Staying here is really all about location. The rooms
can be a little small and the sparse furnishing tends
