In the heart of the Marais, the Saintonge Hotel is the ideal place to set out from for enjoyable walks in the discrit.You will be enchanted by many private mansions, in particular the one housing the Carnavalet Museum which traces out the history of Paris.

Its rooms are small but there's a coziness about this hotel that you might appreciate, especially if you're attracted to beamed ceilings, patches of exposed and very old masonry, and charmingly claustrophobic upstairs hallways. It rises seven stories above a quiet neighborhood in the Marais, one of the many structures that functioned as private houses in the 17th century, and which have been converted to hotels or private apartments. Breakfast is served beneath the vaulted ceiling of what used to be a cellar-level storage area; the lobby boasts hand-hewn beams and a tile floor, and bedrooms have tall windows or, if they're on the building's uppermost floor, angled ceilings that evoke the feeling of an artist's studio in a garret. There are few amenities in this hotel other than the breakfast room, but considering the wealth of museums and architecture in the surrounding neighborhood, no one seems to care. Bathrooms are sheathed in tile, most only with shower.
