Paris: books, walks and where to stay

Choose a neighbourhood around the days you want to have, then compare the hotel details that matter.

Give each day a clear centre

  1. Along the Seine

    Make space for the riverside booksellers and a bookshop visit. Keep this part of the day flexible rather than filling every hour.

  2. The Left Bank

    Group your bookshops, cafés and Luxembourg Gardens into one neighbourhood day.

  3. Montmartre

    Give Montmartre its own part of the trip. A Marcel Aymé-themed hotel is a different base from the Left Bank.
