What MGallery by Sofitel From the east of Paris, you discover it almost by chance and return for pleasure. No, it's certainly not a palace, but in the end, that doesn't matter. This five-star establishment in the Bastille neighborhood has everything to please families, couples, and business travelers. Between attentive staff and bright rooms, you simply feel good there.

The’Hotel Paris Bastille Boutet It is part of the Accor Hotel group. It has 80 rooms and suites, 10 of which have a terrace. If you have the choice at the time of booking, and if you have a child, we recommend the Noyer Suite (311), which allows the living area (and therefore the sofa bed) to be isolated by a double door. The bathrooms are practical and ultra-modern, with a chromotherapy shower and bidet toilets.

If it doesn't have a restaurant, the Paris Bastille Boutet hotel nevertheless offers a very satisfactory buffet breakfast, with efficient and smiling staff, which is not necessarily a given in all Parisian establishments.

The best part? The relaxation area: enjoy the large pool, of the sauna, the hammam and the fitness room in complete tranquility. Also practical, the Hotel Boutet offers an underground car park.

 

In a nutshell

  • The pool and spa area for a welcome relaxing getaway.
  • The terraces of the suites and rooms to enjoy the rooftops of Paris.
  • The efficiency of the available and smiling staff.

Dining: VG Pastry Shop

We've already told you about it, but this pastry remains a must-have. VG Pastry Shop is located a stone's throw from your hotel. You can walk there on Sunday morning for pastries or for an afternoon snack, after a few laps in the pool.

The concept? A 100% plant-based pastry shop that impresses even the biggest skeptics. You can stop by for tea and cake or enjoy your treat in your room. Either way, the (short) trip to the shop is well worth the detour.

With the kids

Children are welcome at this establishment, which is designed for tourist stays. We have stayed here several times (and continue to do so), and our daughter has always received a lot of attention.

The pool is accessible to children, and they will undoubtedly enjoy the counter-current swimming and the fountain. Our daughter also loves trying out the sauna with us for a few minutes. At breakfast time, children can choose from fruits, cereals, pancakes, and various pastries.
