4-star hotel on the Left Bank of Paris: Shopping and discovery break

Nestled in the heart of the Latin Quarter on Paris's Left Bank, Hôtel Royal Saint Michel embodies the perfect blend of Parisian charm, four-star comfort and proximity to the best shopping addresses. This elegant establishment is the ideal base for fashion lovers seeking an unforgettable shopping experience in two of the capital's most iconic districts: Saint-Germain-des-Prés and Le Bon Marché.

A privileged location between history and modernity

Just a stone's throw from Notre-Dame, the Pantheon and the Jardin du Luxembourg, Hôtel Royal Saint Michel enjoys a strategic location. The Saint-Michel metro station provides direct access to the whole of Paris, including the fashion hotspots on the Left Bank.

The neighborhood abounds with bookstores, galleries, literary cafés and small independent boutiques, immersing visitors in a unique atmosphere of cultural effervescence and understated elegance. This makes the Royal Saint Michel the perfect cocoon for a Parisian getaway focused on style and authenticity.

Parisian art of living in the hotel

Staying at the Hôtel Royal Saint Michel means experiencing Paris like a true Parisian. In the morning, enjoy a coffee in the hotel's vaulted dining room or on a sunny terrace in the Latin Quarter. The day is punctuated by the discovery of exclusive boutiques, hidden passages and strolls along the Seine.

Back at the hotel, relax in a cosy room overlooking the rooftops of Paris. Multilingual reception, concierge service and four-star comfort ensure a seamless, elegant stay that's fully in tune with the soul of the city.

Saint-Germain-des-Prés: discreet elegance

Less than ten minutes' walk from the hotel, Saint-Germain-des-Prés unfolds its unique atmosphere. It's a district where fashion expresses itself with discretion, in a subtle blend of tradition and modernity. Between historic facades, bookshops such as L'Écume des Pages and legendary cafés (Café de Flore, Les Deux Magots), fashion windows occupy a special place.

High-end ready-to-wear brands abound: Gérard Darel, Sandro, Carven, agnès b., as well as young designers. There are also leather goods boutiques, rare perfumeries and niche jewelry stores, all in a chic, intimate atmosphere.

Here, we don't consume fashion, we contemplate it. Shopping becomes a stroll, an art of living.

Access: 700 metres from the hotel | Métro Saint-Germain-des-Prés (line 4)

Le Bon Marché: the temple of Parisian luxury

Around 20 minutes on foot (or 10 by metro), Le Bon Marché Rive Gauche embodies the excellence of the Parisian department store. The first of its kind, it retains its architectural elegance while offering a rigorous selection of luxury houses and cutting-edge brands.

The light-filled building houses areas dedicated to women's, men's and children's fashion, accessories, decoration and design. Fashionistas will find the latest collections from Chanel, Saint Laurent and Isabel Marant, as well as emerging and exclusive labels.

Customer service is beyond reproach, with private fittings, personalized advice, tax-free shipping and international delivery... The experience goes far beyond shopping: it's a ritual, a moment of pleasure. And for epicureans, La Grande Épicerie de Paris is a must. You'll find exceptional dishes, local produce, international specialties... perfect for bringing home a gastronomic souvenir.

Address: 24 Rue de Sèvres, 75007 Paris

Metro: Sèvres-Babylone (lines 10 and 12)

Culture, shopping and relaxation

The charm of a shopping trip to Paris Rive Gauche also lies in the opportunity to combine shopping with cultural discoveries. After a trip to the boutiques of Saint-Germain-des-Prés or Le Bon Marché, it's great to lose yourself in the Luxembourg gardens, take in an exhibition at the Musée d'Orsay or enjoy a drink on the terrace.

When you stay at the Hôtel Royal Saint Michel, everything's within easy reach: the stores, but also the landmarks, the cobbled streets, the quays of the Seine and the theaters. All in a peaceful atmosphere, far from the hustle and bustle of the Grand Boulevards.
