About This Guide
Family travel to Reims rewards those who plan carefully and choose their hotel with children in mind — not as an afterthought, but as the primary consideration. The properties in this guide have been selected because they genuinely understand what families need: space to spread out, dining that works for different ages and appetites, and staff who treat children as valued guests.
The best family hotels in Reims have solved the hardest problem in family travel: keeping parents happy while keeping children entertained. This might mean a pool that holds the attention of a ten-year-old for three hours while their parents read, or interconnecting rooms that give everyone space without separation, or a breakfast buffet that has something for the pickiest eater without requiring a parent to negotiate.
Reims offers exceptional experiences for families, and the hotels in this guide are positioned to maximise access to them. The city's most family-friendly attractions, parks, and restaurants are within easy reach of these properties, and the concierge teams at each have been briefed specifically on family-oriented recommendations. This is what good family-hotel service looks like in practice.

Bellevue — Champagne Hillside
Perched on the UNESCO-listed Champagne hillside above Épernay with an extraordinary view over the vineyards, Royal Champagne has an infinity pool that seems to float among the vines, a spa, and a restaurant where the ten-course menu is matched to Grand Cru Champagnes from producers whose vineyards are visible from the table.
City Centre
A reliable mid-market option in the city centre walking distance from the cathedral and the Champagne house cellars. The rooms are clean and comfortable, the breakfast is good, and the location makes it excellent value for visitors who want to spend their money on Champagne tastings rather than a luxury hotel.
City Centre
A Reims institution since 1913, the Hôtel de la Paix has accommodated Champagne-house owners, visiting dignitaries, and discerning travelers for over a century in its handsome façade on a central boulevard. The brasserie restaurant is one of the best in the city for traditional Champenois food.
Cathedral District
The Mercure on the cathedral square occupies a superb position with some rooms having direct cathedral views, and the breakfast on the terrace overlooking the Gothic masterpiece is one of the more atmospheric morning starts available at a mid-range price point in France.
City Centre
A comfortable three-star in the heart of Reims with well-maintained rooms, a good restaurant, and a location walking distance from the cathedral, the Palais du Tau, and the Champagne cellars of Mumm and Taittinger. The staff assist with cellar booking at very short notice.
Champagne Villages — Vallée de la Marne
A charming vineyard guesthouse in the Marne valley run by a small Champagne producer, with rooms above the wine cellar and breakfast served with the estate's own Champagne. The host's guided vineyard walk and cellar tour before breakfast is one of the most exclusive wine experiences in France.

Common Questions
Interconnecting rooms or family suite configurations, a pool, a flexible breakfast with kids' options, proximity to family-friendly attractions, and staff who treat children as genuine guests. Safe areas for kids to run around are often more valuable than any specific amenity.
For younger children, all-inclusive removes the stress of meal logistics and can be excellent value. For families with older children who want to explore local restaurants and culture, a well-located non-all-inclusive hotel offers more variety.
Most hotel kids clubs cater to ages 4–12, though some extend to teens. Confirm the age range, supervision ratios, and programme quality before booking — the difference between a token babysitting service and a genuinely enriching programme is significant.
Book directly and request early check-in explicitly — hotels with availability can often accommodate without charge, especially for families. Arriving with a tired child to a lobby with no room available is one of travel's most avoidable stresses.
Several hotel chains offer family perks within loyalty programmes — kids stay free, complimentary cribs, and children's welcome amenities. IHG One Rewards, Marriott Bonvoy, and Hilton Honors all have family-friendly policies worth registering for before you travel.
