Our recommended Latin Quarter hotels and apartments put you close to the Seine River and Notre Dame, the Pantheon which honors French heroes, numerous historical churches where you can attend classical concerts, the Cluny Museum with its Medieval treasures and Roman baths, and the impressive Institute de Monde Arabe (don't miss its rooftop terrace and restaurant).

Also nearby:  Luxembourg Garden, the Jardin des Plantes with its small menagerie, museums, greenhouses, and hilltop maze, and Arenes de Lutece, a 1st century Roman arena.  And don't forget colorful street markets, wonderful boutiques, bistros, bakeries, and the delightful tea room at the Paris Mosque.  For a unique experience, stroll along Tino Rossi Park and join one of the impromptu dance sessions overlooking the Seine.

So take a look at our top 20 choices for hotels and apartments in the Latin Quarter.  You'll find a range from a budget-conscious (but highly-rated) 1-star hotel to spacious apartments, including several in hotels, plus everything in between. 

Worth noting: all of our recommended hotels in this historical part of Paris are small boutique properties, most with 35 or fewer guestrooms and suites.

You're sure to find the perfect place for your stay in Paris!

9 Rue Git-Le-Coeur, 6th arrondissement

(Although most of the Latin Quarter neighborhood is in the 5th arrondissement, a small section is in the 6th next to the Saint Germain neighborhood.)

Located in a 15th century residence built by a duke, Relais Hotel du Vieux Paris became known as the "Beat Hotel" during the 1950s and '60s when American "Beat Generation" poets and writers such as Allen Ginsburg, Gregory Corso, and Jack Kerouac made it their home in Paris.

Today, the recently renovated 4-star hotel features charming toile fabrics and exposed beam in a nod to earlier centuries, along with high-quality furnishings, comfortable beds, and contemporary conveniences. 

Rates for the least-expensive (and quite compact) guestrooms are a real bargain for accommodations in a 4-star hotel in this location, and are also surprisingly affordable for the spacious suites. 

Best of all: you'll love the superb Latin Quarter location near the Seine River and the Saint Germain neighborhood, where you'll have easy access to all of Paris's top attractions.

13 Rue du Sommerard (near the Pantheon and close to the Seine River)

In a city where 1-star hotels in sought-after neighborhoods have mostly vanished, Hotel Marignan is an insiders' secret among budget-savvy travelers who love its location, low rates, and high-speed fiber optic connections in the heart of Paris's Latin Quarter.

More Places to Stay in Paris's Latin Quarter

Last but certainly not least, here are three more very special places to stay in the Latin Quarter (by coincidence, they are all also very close to the Saint-Germain neighborhood).  But, they are are also highly popular and therefore not easy to reserve.  Needless to say, you'll need to book far in advance, especially if you want to get one of the larger suites or apartments for more than a night or two. 

  • Hotel Saint-Andre des Arts (66 Rue Saint-André des Arts, 6th arr) - Cool 4-star hotel with an Art Deco/Pop Art vibe on a lively street in the Odeon area; very, very popular.  Sister hotel to 3 other highly-rated Latin Quarter Hotels: Hotel Les Dames du Pantheon, Hotel des Grands Hommes, and Hotel Baume.
  • Hotel Villa d'Estrées (17 Rue Gît-le-Cœur, 6th arr) - Gorgeous 4-star boutique hotel with just 10 spacious guestrooms and suites (including family suites for up to 5 guests), and elegant, charming decor located very close to the Seine River on a quiet side street where one of King Henri IV's favorite mistresses lived in the 1590s.  If you've drooled over showrooms featuring antique objects, beautiful tiles, and Pierre Frey, Farrow & Ball, Brunschwig & Son, Osborne Little, and Lelievre fabrics, wallpapers, and paints during your strolls around Paris, you can experience them first hand in this exquisitely decorated hotel.
  • Hotel Residence des Arts (14 Rue Gît-le-Cœur, 6th arr) - Beautiful 3-star hotel with 11 guestrooms on 6 floors in a 17th century building; sister hotel to Hotel Villa d'Estrées across the street, so you'll find similarly elegant decor, high quality materials, and attention to details.  Although the double guestrooms are smaller than those at Hotel Villa d'Estrées, what's special here are the very spacious junior suites (2-4 people) and apartments (4-6 people) with kitchenettes.
