Situated at the very eastern base of Rue des Ecoles, on a corner directly across from the University of Paris, the Hotel au Royal-Cardinal Paris provides classic rooms equipped with modern conveniences.
The 36 rooms aren't terribly exciting, mind you, but they are old-fashioned and boast high ceilings and Latin Quarter street views (almost all are on the street). Twelve lucky rooms have private balconies—ask ahead when reserving. (One fifth-floor room we checked out has an entrance to the balcony in the bathroom. Now that's a perk!)
The friendly hotel is a 10-minute walk to boulevard Saint-Michel, three minutes to the Seine, and five minutes to Ile St-Louis. The central location in the Latin Quarter means street noise, so be prepared to shut your sound-proofed windows at night.
