Item Description

A 3-night stay at the Hotel Pont Royal in a deluxe room, buffet breakfast included.

How can you resist the romance and glamor of Paris? The Hotel Pont Royal is located in Saint-Germain-des-Prés on the Left Bank, long the haunt of writers, musicians, and artists. Take in all that the magical city has to offer: Wander along the banks of the Seine, tour the Musée D’Orsay, explore local galleries and shops hidden down narrow cobbled streets, and end your day with a glass of wine at the famous Cafe Deux Magots. 

 

Saint-Germain-des-Prés is the legendary area where Americans tasted Parisian intellectual life with relish, starting in the twenties.

Between the two World Wars, the Pont Royal bar became one of the leading Paris cocktail bars. F. Scott Fitzgerald and Zelda held court here and attracted all the other "Americans in Paris," who introduced delighted Parisians to this new way of mixing drinks.

A favorite bar of authors like Hemingway, Miller and Fitzgerald, but also of painters like Miró, Chagall and Buffet, it was the place where you could cross paths with the Paris of artistic creation.
