Choosing to stay in a 6th Arrondissement Paris hotel or apartment gives you easy access to all the wonderful attractions and things to do in this posh and über-popular neighborhood. 

You'll be close to the lush Luxembourg Garden, the magnificent Saint-Sulpice Church of Da Vinci Code fame, and all the wonderful designer boutiques and antique stores in the Saint-Germain neighborhood.

You can sip a drink on the terrace in front of Les Deux Magots, made famous by Hemingway, Sartre, and Camus, admire the fresh produce and cheeses in the neighborhood markets, and dine at a different bistro or restaurant every evening.  Or just walk around and admire the gorgeous architecture, explore the vibrant Rue Buci market street, and discover the 6th district's hidden treasures such as Cour de Commerce Saint-André.

Keep in mind, the 6th arrondissement borders the Seine River.  Walk across the Pont Neuf bridge to see Sainte-Chapelle, the Conciergerie, and Notre Dame on Île de la Cité or continue across to the Right Bank, where the Louvre Museum is just a 2-minute walk away. 

Or stay on the Left Bank and explore the nearby Orsay Museum, Army Museum, and Latin Quarter.  Numerous metro stations give you easy access to everywhere else in Paris.

Our recommendations for the best hotels and places to stay in the 6th arrondissement Paris include a variety of 3 star, 4 star, and 5 star hotels and apartments featuring wonderful terraces, views, and other special amenities.

143 Boulevard Saint-Germain, Saint Germain neighborhood

Hotel Madison offers a wonderful location across from Église Saint-Germain-des-Prés, a lovely church with a tower built in the year 1000 where you can attend classical concerts throughout the year and visit a wonderful pop-up Christmas market starting in mid-November. 

You're also conveniently close (ie, a 10-minute walk or less) to Notre Dame, the Orsay Museum, and Sainte-Chapelle. 

The famous Les Deux Magots cafe frequented by Hemingway, Sartre, and Camus is on the opposite corner, and you'll find literally hundreds of other excellent bistros and restaurants within a 5-minute walk of the hotel - so have fun choosing!

Although the hotel's address implies that it's located on Boulevard Saint-Germain, one of the neighborhood's busier streets, it's actually set back on a smaller lane called Rue Gozlin where a green strip with a statue helps insulate it from the traffic.

This 50-room boutique hotel in the 6th arrondissement Paris features modern furnishings, luxurious fabrics, and serene decor, with balconies in some guestrooms overlooking the church. 

Fun Fact:  Each bathroom has artisan-made basins, each a unique color and shape. 

Big Bonus:  Hotel Madison offers free laundry facilities for guests to use.

3 Rue Christine, 6th arrondissement

Relais Christine, one of the very best 5-star luxury hotels in the 6th arrondissement of Paris, is built on foundations of a 13th century abbey with a gated courtyard in a top location near the Seine. 

It features 48 charming high-ceilinged guest rooms and suites with French country decor plus a fabulous spa with Guerlain products and fragrances. 

You'll love the hotel's private flower-filled garden - you will feel like you're in the French countryside rather than a bustling city.

The hotel's superb location on a quiet street only 1-block long is in an area filled with art galleries, boutiques, and bistros at the edge of the Latin Quarter near the Seine River. 

The famous specialty tea store, Mariage Frères Rive Gauche, is at the end of the block - refreshments in their tea room or a meal in their restaurant is always a wonderful experience, so put it on your calendar.

6 Rue Clément, Saint Germain neighborhood

With a wonderful location on a quiet side street in the heart of Saint-Germain near Saint-Sulpice Church, boutique Hôtel Clément features 28 mostly small but nicely furnished guest rooms and suites perfect for families with comfortable beds, air conditioning, an elevator, in-room safes, and a concierge at the front desk - far more than you might normally expect in a 2-star Paris hotel.

The hotel serves a lavish breakfast with many choices and gourmet products.  You'll also find plenty of other breakfast choices in the neighborhood, including the Marché Saint-Germain covered market across the street and a variety of bakeries if you just want to grab a croissant and coffee.  And of course for other meals, this neighborhood has seemingly endless choices of wonderful bistros and restaurants.

Hotel Clément is a true gem, and sister hotel to the excellent and much fancier 4 star Hotel Molière across the river in the 1st arrondissement near the Louvre Museum.  Although no 2 star Paris hotels (that you'd actually want to stay in) in Paris are cheap, this boutique property in the top-rated 6th arrondissement gives you top value for your money.
