Location

In the heart of Paris, Boulevard Henri IV, in the Marais district, stretches between Ile Saint Louis and Place de la Bastille. It is near Place des Vosges, Saint Paul neighborhood with its antique shops, Picasso and Carnavalet museums. The Marais is a preserved “historic” Parisian district, a jewel of architecture, thanks to the intervention of the Minister of Culture André Malraux in the sixties. The Marais experienced its golden age in the 17th century, when most of today’s historical buildings were constructed for noble families. One never get bored walking from a square to a museum, getting lost in small streets full of history, because it is also an extremely lively residential area. All services, food shops, restaurants and trendy boutiques are within walking distance.
