The best areas to stay in Paris
Paris is a mosaic of neighborhoods, each with its own atmosphere, history and hidden treasures. For visitors in search of authenticity, charm and easy access to major monuments, certain districts stand out. Among them: the Latin Quarter, Saint-Germain-des-Prés, the Left Bank and the area around Notre-Dame offer the perfect balance between Parisian art de vivre, historical heritage and cultural dynamism.
To take full advantage of this unique atmosphere, the Hotel Royal Saint Michel stands out as a hotel in the Latin Quarter, ideally located at the crossroads of these legendary districts.
Saint-Germain-des-Prés: timeless elegance
Saint-Germain-des-Prés, located in the 6th arrondissement, is the symbol of Parisian sophistication. Historically frequented by the likes of Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir and Picasso, this district today combines art galleries, antique bookshops, designer boutiques and iconic cafés such as Les Deux Magots.
Staying nearby is an immersive experience, where art, philosophy and gastronomy meet. In just a few minutes' walk from the Royal Saint Michel, you can stroll through its cobbled streets, enjoy a coffee in the Place de l'Odéon or stroll through the Jardin du Luxembourg.
The Latin Quarter: the intellectual and historical heart of Paris
Located in the 5th arrondissement, the Latin Quarter is one of the city's oldest. It takes its name from Latin, once the language of instruction at the Sorbonne. Today, it's still alive with students, academics and culture lovers.
This district is an ideal destination for travelers looking for a hotel in the 5th arrondissement that combines centrality and history. The Royal Saint Michel, nestled a stone's throw from Place Saint-Michel, is one of the few establishments to combine modern comfort with traditional decor in this historic setting.
Must-sees within walking distance of the hotel include the Pantheon, the Sorbonne, the Musée de Cluny, and Rue Mouffetard with its lively market and restaurants.
The Left Bank: a lifestyle apart
The Left Bank is known for its artistic and literary dimension. Less touristy than some parts of the Right Bank, it offers a more bohemian and relaxed atmosphere. Staying here means choosing a calmer pace, conducive to romantic strolls, cultural discoveries and moments of contemplation by the Seine.
The Royal Saint Michel is a hotel on the Left Bank. Its location on the south bank of the Seine, just opposite the Ile de la Cité, means you can quickly access both banks while enjoying the peace and charm of the area.
Near Notre-Dame: in the heart of historic Paris
Choosing a hotel near Notre-Dame means choosing a strategic location. You're just a stone's throw from one of France's most iconic monuments, as well as the Marais district, Ile Saint-Louis, the Louvre and Boulevard Saint-Germain.
The Hotel Royal Saint Michel offers an exceptional location, less than five minutes' walk from the cathedral. From some rooms, you can even see the historic rooftops of the district. It's one of the few hotels of this standing to combine location, upscale service and a typically Parisian atmosphere.
