For local Parisians, there seems to be an ongoing battle between the Rive Gauche and Rive Droite (left bank vs. right bank) side of the Seine River. Those seeking a calmer and very Latin-inspired facet of the capital tend to choose the artistic Saint-Germain quarter.
And while the Rive Gauche doesn’t house many 5 star hotels, some accommodations have what it takes to make you feel like you are at home away from home.
Hôtel Trianon Rive Gauche is located a few steps away from the grandiose Luxembourg Gardens where one can spend a whole day strolling through the greenery or visiting the latest exhibition at the Luxembourg Museum. Walking down takes you to the emblematic Boulevard Saint-Germain and the most famous cafes of all time like the Café de Flore.
The family-owned four stars hotel, constructed in 1912, maintains its historical Parisian feel, with painted glass windows, a vintage elevator and more than 100 spacious rooms overlooking different sides of the city.
The hotel’s helpful and bi-lingual staff is always there to guide you through the city of lights while offering amenities that make your stay as comfortable as possible.
