Hotel Le Lapin Blanc is a beautiful boutique hotel in the heart of Paris. The staff is very friendly and helpful and the interior is mid-modern century mixed with a chic flair of Alice in Wonderland with all the comforts of a good hotel. The hotel is situated on the busy boulevard Saint-Michel but inside you will find an oasis of rest. The beds are comfortable and the shower (and bath in some rooms) are a moment of relaxation along with the bath products with honey. There is a mini fridge, a tv, hair dryer, a mini safe, wifi and coffee and tea facilities. And extra: delicious macarons that Alice would approve off. At breakfast guests have a choice of two types of breakfast; Express and Continental. Express includes drinks, pastries, fresh bread (with jam and honey) and yoghurt. Continental includes everything from Express including a buffet of various cheeses and meats, eggs, sausages and baked beans. The hotel is situated in the fifth arrondissement of Paris where you will find a lot of culture like the Pantheon, the Notre Dame, the Louvre museum and Musée d'Orsay. Or take a walk through the beautiful Jardin du Luxembourg for some peace and quit in this vibrant city. For transportation there are different possibilities. You can take a Hop-on Hop-off bus but I would not recommend it. It's busy with tourists and there can be long waiting lines. Opt for these (low cost) transportation tips instead. Around the corner of the hotel is Metro station Cluny-la Sorbonne. The metro is a cheap way to get everywhere in the city and you aren't run over by tourists. If you like some exercise then the Vélib bike-share system via app is the thing for you. Or just walk and wander through the beautiful streets of Paris. For shopping you can visit the Champs-Élysées and the area around it. But closer to the hotel are some lovely places to visit as well. Step outside your hotel and walk straight into the elegant and artistic Saint-Germain-des-Prés (6th and 7th arrondissements) where you will find many different (antique) shops and the famous Pont des Arts. In the 5th arrondissement (where the hotel is) lies the oldest district in Paris: the Latin Quarter. Here you will find, among lovely old streets and shops, the Pantheon and the historic Cluny Museum. If you cross the Seine you will find Le Marais in the 3rd arrondissement. A very creative place full of boutique shops and don't forget a visit to Centre Pompidou. For food you would not have to look far. Paris is a hub for delicous and diverse food. Visit Angelina, in the gardens of Musée du Luxembourg, for delicious teas, hot chocolate and mesmerizing pastries. Love some more sweet? Laduree is just a minute away at Place Edmond Rostand. And look further then the lovely macarons because besides fresh made drinks there are a lot of sweet treats to choose from. Looking for lunch? On boulevard Saint-Michel you will find Le Choupinet wich offers French brasserie cuisine. And for extra fun: you can sit with a larger than life teddybear at your table. At night you can visit Le Vingt in the Latin Quarter for some cheesefondue or raclette. Or choose a la carte. Paris has so many hidden gems that you will need definitely a couple of trips to this beautiful city and Hotel Le Lapin Blanc is the place to stay.
