An Exceptional and Truly Unique Setting
Almost completely unchanged from Louis XIII's reign, this authentic and prestigious isle remains a perfect example of the late French Renaissance period. The Ile Saint Louis is a self-contained oasis in the middle of the river Seine, home to quality restaurants and food shops including an excellent and well known cheese shop and butcher and the very famous Berthillon icecream! Moments from your apartment, on the neighboring Ile de la Cité, is the stunning Notre Dame church, while the Latin Quarter is just across the bridge onto the left bank. To your north explore on foot the whole of the charming Marais neighbourhood. With the antique shops in the Village Saint Paul, the lovely and original clothes shops along rue des Francs Bourgeois and all the many sites, museums and galleries in the area, our Ile Saint Louis apartment is the perfect location for touring Paris.
The Metro Pont-Marie is a few minutes walk just across the bridge from your apartment.
