Myself, husband, and adult daughter will be in Paris for 8 nights early September 2026. We have never been to France and I was thinking the Saint Germain de Pres or Latin Quarter would be a good area for a base. I would prefer not to spend more than $500 per night and do not want a sleeper sofa as a bed option. Is this unreasonable? Would love some suggestions. Thank you.

I stayed at the Hotel Left Bank on Rue de l'Ancienne Comédie in Saint Germain with my two teen/tween grandkids when I was there in April of last year. I loved the location, and the hotel was very nice with a vintage vibe to it. There is a small lift and the hotel has A/C. Our room was a triple, very clean, with two single beds placed side by side (you can put them together to make a double), and another single (not a sofa bed) in a more secluded area of the room. This was nice as it gave my grandson a bit of privacy. The room was spacious and very clean, and there was coffee and tea-making supplies, along with a kettle.
The breakfast was an additional cost, but when I booked the hotel, they were offering it at a discount for €5 pp, so we got breakfast both mornings, and it was quite good. There were not only breads and pastries, but creamy scrambled eggs, crisp sausage links, fruit, cereal, yogurt, and tomatoes and cucumbers.
The location was outstanding. It was a block from the Odeon Metro stop, about a 10 minute walk to Pont Neuf and Notre Dame, and it was very convenient to sights, cafes, boulangeries, pastry shops and much more. We only had to walk out the front door to find food and drink options everywhere. Our cost was around €320 per night for a triple room in April of 2025.
