We know you weren't entirely convinced by our advice to stay out of the so-called 'centre' of Paris.....so if you can't resist looking for a hotel in sightseeing land, here's the soft option: the Hôtel Therèse.
It's in the first arrondissement of Paris - think the Louvre, Tuileries gardens, Opera and all that jazz. And it's one of the best of a rather pricey bunch of poor hotels in the area. Walking distance to most places in the first chapter of your guide book.
