Why we love it
The setting
Over in Vincennes, just east of Paris, Hôtel Daumesnil sits on a quiet street a short walk from Bérault metro station. From there it's a straight shot into the centre on metro line 1 — major sights, no changes. The hotel keeps a residential feel, away from the crush of the tourist districts, while the Château de Vincennes and the Bois de Vincennes parkland are both within an easy stroll.
What to expect
The Standard Double room runs to about 13 square metres with a full double bed, a private bathroom and free Wi-Fi. The building has 49 rooms across five floors and a glass-roofed breakfast room with a green living wall, where breakfast can be added at booking. Rooms are non-smoking. Staff at reception speak English, and the layout suits couples who want a calm base after a day out rather than a large resort.
Things to do nearby
The Château de Vincennes, a medieval royal fortress with its tall keep, is about 550 metres away. The Parc floral de Paris and the Paris Zoological Park sit roughly 1.6 to 1.7 kilometres from the door, both inside the Bois de Vincennes. For central Paris, the line 1 metro from Bérault runs direct to Bastille, the Louvre and the Champs-Élysées, with the Eiffel Tower around 10 kilometres west.
Best for
Couples who want central Paris on the metro but a quieter, greener place to sleep, with the Bois de Vincennes and the château on the doorstep.
