Sawday's Special Places to Stay, Paris

Where would we be without Alastair Sawday, the inimitable authority on the most special places to stay across Europe and beyond? Somewhere disappointing no doubt. This time, he has once again turned his attention to everyone's favourite city, Paris, pinpointing the most welcoming, stylish, off-beat and comfortable B&Bs, apartments, hotels, townhouses and restored farmhouses in this, the third of Sawday's hugely popular series of pocket-sized mini guides.

RELIABLY GOOD TASTE

As with all the rest of his guides, Alastair Sawday's choice of places to stay is entirely subjective and taste driven. Fortunately, his taste can be relied upon every time and Special Places to Stay, Paris is no exception. Whether its an honest-to-goodness pension de famille (one of the last) overlooking the Luxembourg Gardens; a 300 year old apartment in the Marais, all wood beams and muslin drapes where you can expect honey home-made by the family for breakfast; or a stylish hotel in Montmartre with a bistro from which you can order room service next door, you won't fail to find something to suit your taste, budget and interests over a short (or long!) stay in Paris.

GET THE BEST OUT OF YOUR STAY

Special Places to Stay, Paris is laid out in the usual clear, concise Sawday style, with each place featuring good quality images, well-researched information and easy-to-scan details on price, rooms, meals, directions, and times when it may be closed. There are a number of handy maps at the front of the book to help you get your bearings and the back features general information on how to get the best out of your stay in Paris.
