Hôtel Du Vieux Saule

Warm Lobby & Dining Room

Set in a 16th-century building in the Marais district of Paris, Hôtel Du Vieux Saule is a five-minute walk from Place de la République. It offers free WiFi and air-conditioned rooms. A flat-screen TV and a telephone are provided in each guest room. Some of the rooms include a mini-bar, so make sure you ask for one if a cold soft drink or water is important to you. Each room has a hairdryer in the bathroom, and all of the rooms are serviced by a elevator. You can enjoy a buffet breakfast every morning in the arched stone cellar at Hôtel Du Vieux Saule. This is a favorite among our Paris writers, especially those who prefer a tub bath to a shower. It provides walkable access to our seminar location, and is a good value for a three-star hotel with no-frills, clean rooms.

Private Apartments

Live Like a Local

If you want to free your inner-Emily, you may wish to opt for an apartment. There are also dozens of apartments to fit most budgets, which you can rent for the week. Select one within easy walking of our seminar location, and call Leilani at 214-620-7275 if you have questions. Apartments in the Marais (in the third and fourth arrondissements) are available on the Booking.com link below as well as other apartment rental platforms. Also, note whether the apartment you wish to rent has "a lift" -- a European elevator often big enough for just one person. And, note that a "second floor" apartment means three staircases to climb, not two.
