Fodor's Expert Review La Residence

You'd expect to find this charming little hotel on Paris's Left Bank—the rooms are small but comfortable, and each is individually decorated with an unerring eye for detail. It's one of the few low-key lodgings in an area dominated by office towers. Families should consider one of the suites, which are big and with kitchenettes. A ground-floor restaurant serves Thai food and doubles as a sitting room. The hotel entrance is just down Soi Anuman Rojdhon off Surawong.
