Family Suites and Apartment Hotels in Paris
5 family-friendly hotels with family suite in Paris . Handpicked for families who want the best.
A standard Paris hotel room with two adults and two kids is a tight squeeze: most rooms top out at 18 square metres, and once you add a cot or a folding bed there's nowhere left to stand. A family suite or apartment-style room solves the problem with separate sleeping zones, a sitting area where parents can stay up after the kids crash at 8pm, and (in three of these five) a kitchenette that turns a five-day trip into something you can actually pace. The five below are real family suites, not regular doubles with a kid sofa-bed shoved in. Sizes start at 28 square metres and go up to 58. Prices vary by arrondissement: stay in the 15th or 17th and you save 30 percent versus the same room in the Marais.
Paris splits cleanly into character zones for a family. The 4th and 5th (Marais, Latin Quarter) are walkable to the big-hitters but you pay for it. The 15th and 17th are quieter, safer for an evening stroll with kids, and have actual neighbourhood food shops where you can buy yoghurt and fruit at supermarket prices. Montmartre (18th) is great for older kids who can handle stairs and crowds. La Villette (19th) is the underrated one: huge park, science museum, and rooms half the price of central options.
🛏️Why a family suite changes a Paris trip
Family suites in Paris cost roughly 50 percent more than a standard double, but for a family of four the alternative is two rooms, which costs more than a suite anyway. The maths only works if you can find a hotel with proper family rooms, which is what this page is for. Most large chains in Paris quote 'family rooms' that are really just slightly larger doubles with a fold-out chair-bed. The five hotels below have rooms designed for families: either two bedrooms, or a separate alcove for the kids, or an apartment with a real living area.
The kitchenette question matters more than people think. With small children, you'll need to warm milk, sterilise bottles, store leftovers, and produce snacks at unpredictable times. Doing this from a minibar fridge and a kettle is workable for two nights. By night four you're stressed. The Goralska and the Hyatt have full or partial kitchens; the others have minibars and not much else. Factor that into the choice based on how long you're staying and how young your children are.
Parent's take
Honest advice: pay attention to the 9th and 17th arrondissements. They feel less postcard-Paris but they're where you actually want to be sleeping with kids. Quiet streets, real bakeries, fewer tourist menus. You'll metro into the centre in 12 minutes for the Eiffel Tower and back to a calm hotel afterwards.

Goralska Residences Paris Bastille
4th arr., Bastille/Marais
Wonderful
297 reviews
Apartment-style suites with a full kitchen (induction hob, oven, dishwasher), a separate bedroom and a proper living room with a fold-out sofa for older kids. The Marais location is walkable to the Place des Vosges, Centre Pompidou and the Seine. Concierge service is hotel-standard rather than apartment-standard, so you get a real desk and 24-hour reception.

Why families love Goralska Residences Paris Bastille
Booked the two-bedroom apartment with our 7 and 11-year-old for a week. Full kitchen meant we cooked breakfast and dinner three times, saving probably 200 euros. The kitchen had a Nespresso machine, kettle, oven, induction hob plus a small dishwasher. The kids' bedroom had two single beds rather than a bunk. Walking distance to the Picasso Museum, Place des Vosges and the boulangerie at the corner of rue Saint-Antoine. Felt like a Paris apartment with hotel service.
Elysée Montmartre Hotel
18th - Montmartre
Wonderful
357 reviews
Family rooms with two double beds and a separate alcove with a single bed, plus soundproofed windows that genuinely block the Montmartre nightlife noise. Babysitting is offered through the front desk with 4 hours' notice and runs at 22 euros per hour. Breakfast includes a kid-friendly buffet with cereal, fruit and yoghurt.

Why families love Elysée Montmartre Hotel
The soundproofing was the make-or-break here, because Montmartre is loud until midnight and we have an early-rising 4-year-old. Triple-glazed windows worked. Family room had real space with the alcove being a separate sleeping area, almost like a bunk room. The breakfast buffet had things our 4-year-old would actually eat (real fruit, plain bread, plain yoghurt) and the staff topped up without us asking. Not the cheapest 4-star but the design was actually for families.
Hotel Eiffel Blomet
15th arr. - Vaugirard
Excellent
1,842 reviews
Family rooms with two queen beds plus a fold-out cot or a junior bed for kids up to 8, and on-site indoor pool with a small dedicated kids' pool. The 15th arrondissement location is calmer than the touristy Marais, with grocery stores and a market street (Rue du Commerce) within 5 minutes. Family rooms are limited; book 2-3 months ahead in summer.

Why families love Hotel Eiffel Blomet
Came specifically because of the indoor pool, which was actually two pools side by side: a 12m adult pool and a 1.2m-deep kids' pool. Our 5-year-old swam every morning before sightseeing. The family room had two queen beds in an L shape with a curtain that pulled across to divide them. Not as luxurious as a true suite but functional. Walking distance to the Eiffel Tower in 15 minutes through residential streets.
Hilton Garden Inn Paris La Villette
19th - La Villette
Excellent
783 reviews
Family rooms accommodating two adults and two children with a queen and a sofa-bed setup, plus connecting room availability for larger families. The La Villette location backs onto Parc de la Villette with the Cite des Sciences science museum, so the kids' destination is a 10-minute walk from the hotel. Kid-friendly menu in the on-site restaurant and complimentary breakfast for under-12s.

Why families love Hilton Garden Inn Paris La Villette
Total winner for the science museum visit. The kids spent two full days at the Cite des Sciences and we just walked back to the hotel in between. Family room was a connecting double, which is what we'd asked for: one room for parents, one for the kids, with a closeable door between. Free breakfast for the under-12s was a nice cost-saver. Metro to the centre takes 18 minutes; you trade central location for size and value.
Hyatt Regency Paris Étoile
17th - Porte Maillot
Very Good
2,488 reviews
Junior suites and family suites with proper layouts, plus connecting rooms for families wanting separate sleeping spaces. The 17th-arrondissement location near Porte Maillot is well connected (RER, multiple metro lines) and the Hyatt has its own kids' menu in the buffet restaurant. Rooftop pool open seasonally with spectacular views over Paris from the 35th floor.

Why families love Hyatt Regency Paris Étoile
Booked connecting rooms for our family of five and the layout worked perfectly. The two rooms shared a vestibule, so adults could move freely between rooms without going into the corridor. Kids' menu was unexpectedly thoughtful: pasta, chicken nuggets, real vegetables, and ice cream. The rooftop pool open in late spring had a glass barrier that kept the wind off; we had it almost to ourselves at 8am. RER from Porte Maillot reached the centre fast.
💡Five things to know before booking a family suite
- 1Specify two beds, not one queen, when booking the family suite. French hotel websites often default to one queen plus a chair-bed, which is fine for one parent and one kid but useless for a family of four. Email after booking to confirm the bed configuration and ask for a layout photo if you're not sure.
- 2Check the floor plan, not just photos. Paris suites often run lengthwise down a building so the 'living area' is actually a corridor with a sofa. Ask the hotel for the suite floor plan or look at booking.com user photos rather than the polished marketing shots which compress space.
- 3Pre-book breakfast only if it includes children free. Paris hotel breakfasts run 22 to 32 euros per adult; charging full price per kid for a buffet of croissants is a poor deal. Eat at a corner cafe (8 euros) or buy at a boulangerie (3 euros) instead. The Hyatt and Hilton have free under-12 breakfast.
- 4Use Velib bikes only for kids 8 and up. The bike lanes in central Paris have improved but they're still busy, and the bikes are heavy adult bikes. For young kids, walk or take the metro. The 1st arrondissement and the Tuileries are buggy-friendly; the metro is mostly accessible on lines 1, 14 and the RER.
- 5Book parking off-site if you're driving. Paris hotel parking is 35 to 60 euros per night and the in-house garages are tiny. Indigo and Saemes public car parks 100m from each hotel cost 22 to 28 euros. The hotel can give you a passe-partout for the off-site garage at check-in.
