Winter in Paris: the best places to warm up
Winter in Paris has a rare gift: the ability to slow time down.
A cold morning in the Batignolles, mist on the shop windows, the smell of coffee drifting out of neighbourhood bistros, soft footsteps on still-quiet pavements. Inside Joli Môme, the house wakes gently: a shared breakfast around the large table, hushed conversations, winter light sliding across the rooftops.
As temperatures drop, Paris becomes a city of refuge. Cosy cafés, inspiring museums, intimate tea rooms… places to warm both body and mind. Here are our favourite spots, all open in winter, to fully savour the season in Paris, cocoon-style.
Winter in Paris: cosy cafés and tea rooms to linger in
In the Batignolles and nearby neighbourhoods, winter is best enjoyed with a warm cup in hand.
Just a short walk from Joli Môme, Dose – Batignolles is a local favourite. People come for a perfectly brewed specialty coffee, a still-warm banana bread, and a simple, friendly atmosphere that makes you want to stay longer than planned.
A little further away, Fragments charms visitors with its light wood interiors, homemade pastries, and calm ambiance. Ideal for a winter morning spent reading, writing, or simply watching the city from indoors.
For an even sweeter break, head to Le Loir dans la Théière. Here, generous tarts and thick hot chocolate offer instant comfort. It’s a well-known address, but winter gives it a particularly special charm.
Winter in Paris: museums and cultural spaces as urban refuges
When the cold sets in, Paris invites you to step inside, slow down, and contemplate.
The Musée de la Vie Romantique is one of those places that feels perfect in winter. An intimate house museum, a quiet garden, and a discreet tearoom everything here encourages a timeless pause.
For a more monumental immersion, the Musée d’Orsay remains a true refuge. Natural light, vast spaces, Impressionist masterpieces: you warm up as much through beauty as through atmosphere.
And for lovers of architecture and design, the Musée Carnavalet offers a journey through the history of Paris ideal for understanding the city while staying sheltered from the cold.
Winter in Paris, guesthouse style at Joli Môme
After wandering through the city, nothing feels more precious than coming back “home”.
At Joli Môme, winter is lived indoors, through simple and sincere moments. Every afternoon, a comforting teatime is served in the lounge: hot drinks, sweet treats, spontaneous conversations. A ritual that warms just as much as the blankets scattered around the room.
As the day draws to a close, it’s time for the Parisian apéritif, a signature moment of the house. A glass of wine is shared, along with carefully selected cheeses and travel stories. Little by little, the boundaries between hosts and travellers gently fade away.
And in the morning, for all direct bookings, breakfast is offered. A key winter moment in Paris: taking your time, savouring the moment, before stepping back out into the still-crisp city air.
