Hôtel La Comtesse

A V-shaped Haussmannian building near the Champ de Mars angled so that most rooms catch the Eiffel Tower, several from their own balcony. The most reliably view-oriented address at its price.

  Rue Cler

  Five blocks of pedestrianised market street in the 7th, between Avenue de la Motte-Picquet and Rue de Grenelle. Quieter and posher than Aligre — more bistros and patisseries, fewer haggling locals. Come for the cheese shops.

  The Café du Marché on the corner of Rue Cler and Rue de Grenelle is the spot for a Sunday-morning omelette. Walk the street north-to-south. The fromagerie Marie-Anne Cantin (no. 12) is one of the city's best cheese shops; closed Mondays.

Within a few minutes' walk

• Hôtel Le WaltEiffel-view hotel€€ · 2 minA 25-room hotel near the Champ de Mars whose 'Vue Tour Eiffel' rooms put the Tower in the window. The other categories do not, so the name on the booking is the whole matter.
• Le Cinq CodetDesign hotel€€€ · 3 minA 1930s telephone exchange behind Les Invalides, reworked by Jean-Philippe Nuel into something between a hotel and a collector's loft — some 400 artworks across 67 rooms and the corridors. A planted patio and a small spa with hammam.
• Hôtel Duquesne EiffelEiffel-view hotel€€ · 4 minA small, recently refurbished hotel between Les Invalides and the Tower, where a handful of rooms give a tip-to-toe view of the Eiffel. Most face a courtyard, so the view is a category, not a guarantee.
• Hôtel du CadranBoutique hotel & spa€€ · 6 minFifty-three contemporary rooms just off rue Cler, with a free hot-tub-and-sauna spa, a vaulted-cellar breakfast room and a macaron counter by reception.
• Café du MarchéCafé / brasserie€€ · 6 minThe anchor café of the rue Cler market street, with one of the better sidewalk terraces in the Seventh and a board of plats du jour priced for people who actually live nearby.
• Cler HôtelBoutique hotel€€ · 8 minTwenty-six renovated rooms over the rue Cler market, with a marble fireplace in the lobby and a small terrace; rooms are tight but kept immaculate.
