14 Family-Friendly Paris Hotels That Set a New Bar for Kid-Focused Amenities

"Saint Ouen Billed as Paris’s original lifestyle hotel—and the brainchild of entrepreneur Cyril Aouizerate, co-founder of the popular Mama Shelter group—there’s lots to appeal to younger guests at this quirky spot right by the city’s legendary flea market, Marché aux Puces de St-Ouen. In the charming courtyard garden, you’ll find ping-pong tables and plenty of space for kids to run around and blow off steam, while films are screened on the giant projector after dark. The design-led rooms are delightfully spacious and filled with curious knick-knacks, from Chinese shadow puppets to musical instruments. Every month there’s a different kids’ workshop on offer, where little ones can get crafty with cardboard and papier maché, and they go all out for events like Halloween, with face painting, games, and sweet hunts. What’s more, kids under six eat free in the restaurant, and there’s a daily gouter bio for children held in the lobby between 3 p.m. and 6 p.m., where little ones are treated to an organic snack and a hot drink." - Luciana Bellini
