My husband and I stayed at Gilian's with our three teenagers for a couple of days in Paris. I cannot imagine a more charming place to stay. The building itself was historical (wikipedia put it at 1300 AD!), but the amenities were modern with thoughtful touches throughout. Everything from the exposed beams to the original stone work to the beautiful vines climbing the windows made this place feel like it was straight out of a storybook. And as if that wasn't enough, we found the perfect boulangerie just steps from the front gate...wonderful!!!
