In a pretty, less-touristy part of Montmartre is this gorgeous Parisian home-away-from-home. The short hike from the metro is well worth it as the friendly villagefolk Bonjour you up the hill. Each of the 12 charming rooms, decorated with its own English floral fabric, is clearly loved and tended to by the warm, friendly owners, the Canipel family. Every room has its own small bathroom and a view either over Paris rooftops or the quiet local street. Breakfast is served in the rooms, but there are also garden tables on a lovely back terrace if you prefer. It’s a bit like going to stay with Auntie Vera, and as you might expect, Auntie Vera has no credit card facilities, so be prepared to pay in cash.
