Hi there, bonjour, I’m Regina, Australian based (Portugal born), Paris B&B expert over 17 years, featured in The Weekend Australian, The Age, Cosmo Bride and Virgin Voyeur & more.

I love offering my handpicked collection and intimate network of incredibly charming and authentic Paris B&Bs - residential family run B&Bs (Chambre d’hotes ie traditional guesthouses) as well as apartments - with the kindest, most generous, hospitable hosts that are like family to me, and who will be to you too.

My deep personal relationships with them will translate over to you, I promise. You are not just a number coming through an automated platform, this is a very human heart-centred service. A service for anyone who wants an intimate personalised REAL experience of Paris and who wants to live like a local in a REAL home, to experience a family-style intimate experience of everyday Paris life, to connect with their local Parisian host like a friend; and to explore Paris like a local too.

I visit and stay in all Petite Paris B&Bs every year and I am always on the hunt for new homes to keep adding to the catalogue - BUT this is not a numbers game, I only add a new home when it and the host, aligns perfectly with the Petite Paris ethos charming presentation, and personalised care and service. Hosts who go the extra mile to offer you more than just a key.

Petite Paris is the perfect way to experience the true intimacy of Paris for anyone - couples, families etc, - but especially for solo travellers getting a sense of belonging, acceptance, warmth and complete cultural immersion while alone in the city. We all know how solo travel can often feel lonely, especially in a city like Paris. But Petite Paris is here to connect you with amazing hosts and homes where you will always feel not only welcomed, but AT HOME in the city.

In fact the tale that Parisians are unfriendly is a myth. They are the friendliest people, you just need to stay in an authentic way that allows you to connect with them. Otherwise you’re just another tourist crowding their city and will probably feel their frustration. The best way to achieve this is to start with a real Parisian home. Staying in their home is an immediate portal into the their private and friendly most hospitable world! You will experience the REAL Parisian, not the irritated Parisian.

Visit the Petite Paris Community Calendar! - This is where travellers from around the world staying in Petite Paris homes can casually connect too and plan friendly meet ups.

Sign up to one of the Curated Solo Traveller Meet Up Trips scheduled throughout the year.

As a lifelong solo traveller, and Paris lover, I would LOVE to encourage anyone dreaming of solo travel to Paris, to take the plunge with Petite and book with me!

See you in Paris, I hope.
