Montmartre
Le Marais
Saint-Germaine
= wedding location
Le Marais
Montmartre
Saint-Germain
Recommended Hotels:
Historical district in between the 3rd and 4th Arr. Slightly off-set from more touristy area, so more of a local vibe with historic buildings, fun shopping, and great restaurants.
Recommended Hotels:
On the left bank of the Seine, this historic street is surrounded by an upscale neighborhood with more of an urban vibe, luxury shopping, and high-end restaurants.
Located at the top of the city, in the 18th Arr., this district overlooks all of Paris. The Sacré-Cœur is the main attraction, surrounded by charming streets and shops.
Recommended Hotels:
(Full disclosure: The best places to stay are not in Montmartre, but Paris has amazing public transporation so getting there for the wedding will not be an issue!)
& we always recommend staying at an Airbnb for a more local-feeling experience!
