Hotel - central location with baby - any recommendations

Hi,

I%26#39;d really appreciate your advice, we are going to Paris for my Birthday early December and we%26#39;ll be travelling with our 3 month old baby. We are only going for a couple of nights, we%26#39;d like a central hotel which has decent size bedrooms with good facilities as we%26#39;ll probably be spending more time in our room than on previous breaks away.

Thank you for your help.

Three month olds are easiest to travel with, its the older ones that get harder. Bring a baby back pack as then you don%26#39;t have to fuss with a stroller, I find Paris not terribly stroller friendly. Bring stroller anyways, but I think getting hubby to wear the baby is by far easiest option.

Baby won%26#39;t need food, or kitchen facilities, but one thing you will want is a decent washroom, a tub is esssential as holding a wiggly one in the shower is not much fun if they have just had a loose movement,, LOL, and at three months a sink becomes a bit small.

Hotel Brighton ( definately book only a %26quot; view %26quot; room) is lovely, well located, and has decent sized rooms and bathrooms. Plus fridge .

Really your needs with a three month old are not that different, other then good washing up facilities, baby can%26#39;t crawl yet( thank goodness as hotel carpets are filthy as a rule) , baby doesn%26#39;t need a highchair , or midnight snacks( other then you of course, LOL ) , so really this could be a lovely break for the three of you. Enjoy, Just book a hotel that appeals to you, has a tub, good heating, and have fun.

Thank you very much for your reply and tips are a great help - wouldn%26#39;t have thought to request a bath. I have booked our train journey over now and really looking forward to out trip.

Now to research some good restaurants.
