We are five and we travel a lot. During city trips we hardly book hotels anymore because it is too little space for a lot of money {often you need to book 2 rooms}.
And in a city like Paris where hotel rooms are tiny or cost as much as a topnotch hand bag {per night/room} renting an apartment is the best solution for us.


And having a home away from home allows you to feel like a local, shop all the great goodies from the supermarket and enjoy them “sur place” {more space for other things in your suitcase} and by now the choice of apartments is so good you will definitely find a place that you like.

We booked with HouseTrip this year and it was really great. We found a huge and beautiful {see pics above and below} apartment which was very well connected by public transport and had lots of nice restaurants and cafes around….

A lot of people ask me where to stay in Paris with kids and this is my answer: rent an apartment!
