Three Great Romantic Parisian Hotels

There is one destination in the world that most people think of when they hear the word "romantic" and that's Paris. People from all over the world visit Paris for many different reasons, one of the most popular being a romantic break with the other half. But with more than 14 million visitors annually and over 75,000 hotel rooms throughout the city to choose from, it can be a tough decision trying to find a great place to stay. Here are a few charming hotels that will make any romantic getaway that extra bit magical.

Located near the River Seine in the heart of the Ile Saint Louis region lies the luxury 4 star Hotel du Jeu de Paume. The central location is ideal for couples wishing to take a romantic stroll hand-in-hand along the river. Visitors can choose from 30 spacious rooms, each decorated with vintage pieces to give a very cosmopolitan feel. For those who plan to stay a minimum of 5 nights, there is the option of staying in one of the two apartments the hotel has to offer. With its warming atmosphere and peaceful private gardens, the Jeu De Paume is a great escape for couples of all ages. Pets are also welcome if you can't bear to be apart from your furry friends for too long!

Sitting in the centre of Paris's famous Left Bank, is the 4 star L'hotel. Artists, writers and philosophers alike gather here thanks to the areas reputation for bohemian soul and high fashion. The hotels "Grand" rooms have the biggest rooms and bathrooms but if you fancy a room with a view, the "Bijoux" and "Mignon" rooms overlook the cobbled street of Rue des Beaux-arts. A great choice for couples who love a lazy morning that consists of croissants, coffee and people watching.

A few streets west of L'hotel, is the relaxing Relais Christine. Hidden away at the end of a narrow street and surrounded by beautiful gardens, the 4 star Relais Christine is another romantic delight. There are 51 rooms and suits to choose from, ranging from a standard room to a luxury garden terraced suite. This small hotel has the intimacy and service that larger establishments can often lack. And being within walking distance from the Louvre and Notre-Dame, this charming hideaway is the perfect choice for a secluded break in the heart in the city.
