Hotel Alma

It was chic and very French. We had a pretty little balcony with views over the city rooftops. (And why should the staff speak anything but French? It added to the authenticity).

We were extremely disappointed that the much advertised roof terrace was kept locked the whole time we were there (only one night- but we'd hoped for breakfast there, or at least a little look around). Very disappointingly, breakfast was served in a hot, stuffy, windowless little room on high stools and tiny tables which don't really work for small children.

Great price with clean refurbished rooms and a comfortable bed. Undercover public parking (with security) was available quite close to the hotel.

There was a bit of noise in the street at night - ear plugs worked well.
