Familia Hôtel

11 rue des Ecoles, 5th

Set on a bustling street in the Latin Quarter, this old-fashioned hotel has balconies hung with tumbling plants and walls draped with French tapestry replicas. The 30 rooms have personalised touches such as sepia murals, cherry-wood furniture and stone walls; the communal areas were refurbished in 2005. The welcoming Gaucherons also own the Minerve (www.hotel-paris-minerve.com) next door, which offers the same splendid package. Both hotels are in demand: book well ahead.
