Spacious 2 BR Near Eiffel Tower and St Germain This apartment is located within the 7th arrondissement, on the Rive Gauche (Left Bank of the River Seine). Within this district’s boundaries can be found, most famously, the Eiffel Tower, Hotel des Invalides (Napoleon's resting place), Musée d'Orsay, Musée Rodin, Musée du Quai Branly and Musée de l'Armée (the largest military museum in the world), just to name a few. The 7th has been the seat of the French aristocracy and upper classes since the 17th Century. The oldest and most prestigious families of the French nobility built outstanding residences in the area; architectural wonders such as the Hotel Matignon, Hotel de Salm, and Hotel Biron are a must-see. So, it's no surprise that today, the 7th is home to several embassies, the Assemblée Nationale (French Parliament), and numerous government ministries. But the 7th has far more to offer than just history and grandiosity. Perhaps you are simply searching Paris for some culinary delights? If a luscious crumble might tickle your fancy, you should head straight to Les Deux Abeilles. Other notable restaurants and cafes in the area include Les Cocottes, right at the corner of the passage way you need to discover GAYA restaurant whose owner is Pierre Gagnaire with 3 Michelin stars, the ATELIER ROBUCHON restaurant is also nearby, for a typical Parisian Brasserie you need to sample LES ANTIQUAIRES on rue du Bac one of my favorites at a 5 minutes walk. Bear in mind that LE BON MARCHE is a walk away & right across a visit to it’s food department is a must. While in the area what about an aperitif at the LUTETIA hotel, you cannot leave Paris without enjoying a drink ot why not a meal? There are also more open markets in the 7th than anywhere else in Paris. Should you choose to put that beautiful kitchen to good use, prepare your meals using the finest ingredients from the outdoor marchés. A must visit on Wednesdays and Saturdays is the open market at Pont de l'Alma. Merchants from the French countryside come to sell paté, local wines, cheeses, fresh flowers, fish, baked goods and even escargots. The 7th is also a fashionista's dream come true. From couturiers on Avenue Montaigne and Rue du Faubourg St. Honoré to fresh and hip designers off the Boulevard St. Germain there is something for everyone. And, if your home needs a little something special, check out CFOC, an Asian concept store that features fabrics, objects, and tableware.
