Le Relais Montmartre

Montmartre & Northern Paris


Warmed by a log fire in winter, this four-star inn is a solid choice for traditionalists seeking an excellent location and impeccable service. The country-style decor, with floral prints and exposed rafters painted to match each room's colour scheme, risks feeling dated but is charming nonetheless.

Breakfast (€15) can be served in your room, in the vaulted cellar or on the patio in fine weather.
