Hi there, bonjour, I’m Regina, Australian based, Paris obsessed B&B specialist of over 17 years, featured in travel publications The Weekend Australian, The Age, Cosmo Bride and Virgin Voyeur.
I offer a handpicked selection of incredibly charming and authentic Paris B&Bs - residential family run B&Bs (Chambre d’hotes) ie traditional guesthouses with the kindest, most generous, gracious and hospitable hosts that are like family to me, most of whom I have worked with for at least 15 years.
I stay in all Petite Paris B&Bs every year and I love to share the homes and my relationships with their hosts with you, for your own welcoming and intimate cultural immersive Paris experience too. My hosts will treat you the way they treat me, like family. This service is for anyone who wants to live like a local, connect with their local host and to explore Paris like a local.
I also lovingly curate personalised Paris itineraries to suit your personal interests, ticking off all your must-see monuments combined with off-the-beaten track insider Paris places you would never otherwise know of.
Petite Paris is also a Community and family of travellers from around the world who love French culture and meeting up in the city! I too love meeting up with Petite guests whenever I am in Paris. The Petite Paris Community Calendar is how Petite guests connect and meet up in the city
Petite Paris is also a Solo Traveller Support Service. As a lifelong nomad solo traveller, I love to encourage anyone toying with the idea to take the plunge with Petite and book my Premier Petite Paris Package - a support package and service for first time solo travellers to Paris. I am right there with you!
And FINALLY but proving to be the MOST exciting are my annual Group Meet Up Trips for Solo Travellers in Paris! There are 2 trips coming up:
24-29 March, 2026 is for First Time Solo travellers to Paris, Meet up Trip
2. 19-26 May 2026 is the Petite Reunion Trip - the returning and regular Petite Paris guests and travellers Meet up Trip
My Petite Paris Homes
I proudly offer a handpicked handful and highly recommended selection of family-run traditional Parisian B&Bs, (and a few private apartments - read more here). I have worked with my hosts for 10-15+ years, they are like family to me and I know their homes, like the city, like the back-of-my-hand. It would be a pleasure to book you in - I promise, a friend, and a home that feels like your own awaits! And these precious relationships that I have with my hosts will translate over to YOU promising you the absolute best personalised care in Paris. Professional but like a friend and staying with family!
Ps even if you book one of the few self contained apartments available vs a classic B&B guesthouse, your host (home owner) will still reside either in the same building or nearby so you can always have that personal connection and human care, not to mention a local friend happy to meet you for a local wine.
Here are a few of my social media snippets about Paris apartment life and the difference between staying in a regular hotel or staying Petite…

Petite Paris Itineraries
It can be daunting searching ‘what to see and do in Paris’, so let me take the hard work out for you and curate your perfect Paris experience, day-by-day including your must see monuments as well as non-touristy, quirky, local and off-the-beaten-track places. It is my passion and joy to create these for you! If you want to hit some literary places and meet writers I can plan an itinerary around this, if you are a foodie and want to be immersed in the best food culture ofd the city, workshops, classes and market hoping I will create this for you. Etc!
Petite Paris itineraries are interactive and live online so they can be edited at any time even while in Paris - you can tweak and reshape the plan as your day unfolds in Paris. It’s the perfect Paris Plan that allows for spontaneity, going off track, but returning to ‘the plan’ later if you wish! I create it, you can undo it if you like haha!
