DH and myself turn 40 this year and we have decided to go to Paris while teenage DD is on residential, so term time prices yay!

I have been looking at the Eurostar website and there are so many hotels to choose from. I reckon we have a max budget for trains and hotel of £1000 for 3 to 4 nights, mid week so can afford somewhere reasonably nice I hope.

Can anyone recommend somewhere that ticks all our boxes?
Nice area - safe enough to walk about after dark
Close to metro station
Not too far from Gare de Nord for Eurostar
Reasonably sized rooms
breakfast included
Close to decent restaurants
close to main attractions (want to visit Eiffel Towrr, Arc de Triomph, Sacre Coeur, Montmatre, Champs elysee, Louvre etc so realise that while these are spread out, we need somewhere fairly central). And anywhere else anyone can suggest????

We are also thinking about a day out to universal studios at Disney while we are there - am I mad to think we have time?

Sooo excited, I have wonderful memories of visiting Paris on a youth hostelling school trip when I was 10 and DH is getting rather fed up of me reminiscing so I don't want it to be a let down.

I travel to Paris regularly and always stay on the left bank (latin quarter)

There are plenty of lovely hotels along the Boulevard St Germain along to Shakespeare & Co, opposite the Louvre and Notre Dame.

If you like a more shopping type of holiday then near the Opera is good as you have Galeries Lafayette, or along the Champs Elysees.

I think you should decide what area suits you best first and then ask for hotel recommendations. Paris is beautiful, have a lovely time and don't bother going to Eurodisney without DC

Thanks cuppycake. I am genuinely open to ideas so don't want to narrow down an exact area... I'm looking for recommendations of nice hotels.

I stayed in this B'n'B a few months ago and it was lovely and so central. It's about 30 meters up the street to Notre Dame, lovely area to walk around. Not so close to Gard de Nord though.
