Paris is magnificent.
Bring the children.

For six years, I have worked inside Paris's finest hotels as a destination wedding planner. I know which concierges actually deliver, which restaurants quietly love a well-behaved child, and which rooms have the view worth paying for. I also know, from the other side of the velvet rope, what these hotels look like when they're performing at their best — and when they're not. Then I brought my own children on those work trips. We kept coming back. This guide is everything we've learned.
