We spent 2 weeks over the 2022-2023 Christmas-New Year’s holidays in Paris at the Résidence Henri IV in the 5th arrondissement (Latin Quarter). It was the perfect location for our visit.
Within three blocks:
• several boulangeries, pâtisseries and cafes. Be sure to try the “Best Baguette in Paris“ at La Parisien and meringue delights at Aux Merveilleux.
• Monop’ and Franprix stores
• two self-serve laundromats.
• The area felt more like a neighborhood and not so much a tourist area, yet close enough to the places we wanted to visit by walking or accessing through the Metro. Perfect really.
The reception staff is excellent. Many speak fluent English and the manager is truly exceptional.
The hotel is in a wonderful, walkable location. A 10-minute walk in one direction is the Pantheon and Jardin du Luxembourg; 10 minutes in another is the Seine, Notre Dame and Rue des Saint Germaine. Of course, there are Metros nearby.
For runners, the Jardin du Luxembourg is the place!
This hotel is the only place we will ever stay in Paris! It is quiet (never heard a footstep above us nor more than an occasional murmur from the room next to us. There are only 2 rooms on each floor with a total of 13 and on a very quiet, dead-end street so it is very quiet.
This was a bucket-list trip for us and the hotel and their staff made it perfect. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
