Saint Germain des Prés is widely held to be the most desirable area of Paris. And rightly so, as Saint-Germain really does seems to have it all: the finest Parisian boutiques and restaurants, a buzzing ambiance day or night, fabulous architecture and a profoundly ingrained sense of history and culture that draws Paris' best antique dealers.

The well-healed locals are either furiously stylish or cultured and/or arty. A promenade down the narrow local side streets reveals a wealth of fine restaurants, serving gourmet French cuisine. Every corner is a café terrace opportunity (with the famous Flore and Deux Magots cafés very close by), while at night you'll also find several stylish bars (such as L’Alcazar and Armani Café).

In Saint-Germain it's shopping galore, with France's couture labels setting the trends for the many smaller and oh-so-charming boutiques. Not forgetting the Bon Marché, the Left Bank department store that is so magical that you'll need that extra suitcase to take your purchases home!
