Paris with children: a room for you, a room for them

Q: When is the second room added at Le Meurice?

With Family Time1 it is added automatically to the booking after completing the online booking. Ask for both rooms and the total in the confirmation.

Q: Is the second room in a suite offer another suite?

At Le Meurice1 and Plaza Athénée3, the suite offer adds a connecting room. The second unit is a room, so ask for its category.

Q: Can I combine the family offer with another promotion?

The Peninsula’s Family Moments2 cannot be combined with other programmes or promotions. Family Time at Le Meurice1 and Plaza Athénée3 also excludes other offers: ask the hotel which total works best for your dates.

For connecting rooms in Paris I would start with Le Meurice; with young children I would ask The Peninsula too. Get a quote for the whole family: a half-price second room does not halve the cost of the stay.

10 addresses and the rooms to ask for

Palaces and grand hotels in the guide, with the Ritz alongside: the reductions apply to the second room, and each pair has its own terms.

Le Meurice

Have your children’s ages accepted: the offer starts with under-12s, while its terms allow children aged 18 and under.

Why choose it

Ask for the pair and the same rooms priced separately, with matching breakfast, tax and cancellation terms: that is the useful comparison.

A sitting room with sofas, a round table and windows

Cheval Blanc Paris

For a suite overlooking the Seine with a second bedroom for the children.

The trade-off

The Seine Suite alone takes 3 guests: for a family of 4, have the connecting room included in the quote.

Why choose it

The Seine Suite¹¹, 105 m², can connect to a Deluxe Room. It has a living and dining area separate from the bedroom. I would ask for the total for this pair and for the same accommodation booked separately, confirming the Deluxe Room’s guest limit and the connecting door.

Hôtel de Crillon

For a Family Suite with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.

The trade-off

Ask for the plan of the combination: I would have the door between the spaces marked and the bill made out for every guest before booking.

Why choose it

The Deluxe Family Suite¹² combines a Premier Room and a Deluxe Suite; the Premier Family Suite joins a Junior Suite and a Premier Suite. The Deluxe page¹³ describes 2 king bedrooms, 2 living rooms and 2 bathrooms. Rates are in euros per room per night, include 10% VAT and add city tax of €15.93 per adult per night. Request a family price and one for the 2 units separately.

Ritz Paris

For place Vendôme and a request for a connecting Deluxe Room when you book.

The trade-off

Have the room pair and the door confirmed before paying, and send your children’s ages with the quote request.

Why choose it

The Ritz¹⁴ offers connecting rooms on request at booking, with the Deluxe Room among the possibilities. Alternatively, the F. Scott Fitzgerald Suite has 2 bedrooms; the Deluxe Suite is suggested for a couple with 2 young children. Ask for the connecting pair and the suite on the same dates, with matching meals and cancellation terms.

Hotel rates, 5 November 2026. Published starting prices do not confirm availability for a particular stay. The dated Bristol price covers 17–19 November 2026, 2 adults and children aged 8 and 11.

I would choose the door before the hotel

The price matters once you know where everyone will sleep.

Ask for a plan marking both rooms and written confirmation of the internal door. With young children, I would settle that before arrival.
Send the children’s ages in the first message and confirm the beds and guest limit in both rooms. A room next door is useful only if it can sleep the people you are booking it for.
For a price comparison, request 2 quotes for the same rooms: family rate and rooms bought separately, with matching dates, breakfast and cancellation. A lower price for a different room cannot prove the saving.

What I would send reservations

Send the same questions to each hotel so the replies can be compared.

“We are 2 adults and 2 children of these ages, travelling on these dates. We would like 2 rooms with a confirmed internal connecting door. Please specify the categories, beds and total stay price, with breakfast, tax, service and cancellation terms.”

“For the same 2 rooms, what would we pay on the family rate and if we bought them separately? Is the connecting door guaranteed with both rates?” I would ask for both totals in the same reply.

Questions before booking

The door, the bill and where the children sleep.

When is the second room added at Le Meurice?

With Family Time¹ it is added automatically to the booking after completing the online booking. Ask for both rooms and the total in the confirmation.

Is the second room in a suite offer another suite?

At Le Meurice¹ and Plaza Athénée³, the suite offer adds a connecting room. The second unit is a room, so ask for its category.

Can I combine the family offer with another promotion?

The Peninsula’s Family Moments² cannot be combined with other programmes or promotions. Family Time at Le Meurice¹ and Plaza Athénée³ also excludes other offers: ask the hotel which total works best for your dates.
