Finding a place to stay in Paris can be a challenging task, especially when factoring in that you have more than 1,600 hotels to contend with. Palaces, manoirs and rooftop terrasses every which way you look. New openings saturate the market, each claiming to be bigger and better than the last, meanwhile, some 40 million tourists flock to Paris each year, many of whom you’ll have to contend with when looking to book the best room in town.
As if the arrondissement wasn’t already hard enough to pick — should you stay in fashionable Saint-Germain-des-Pres, chic Le Marais or edgy, distinctly un-Parisian Belleville — there’s the new Michelin ‘key’ ranking system to contend with.
