Central location great for going to the sites. We liked Rarita for pizza and had a good experience at Brasserie Flottes for a late night dining experience. Booked museums in advance for skip the line access all over and used buses and metro easily from this location. Felt we would have liked better air conditioning given how hot August can be in Paris. We would go back in a minute though! Even in August. If a studio will work for your family, book it now before it’s not available!
