Summer sales madness on the Left Bank

Located in the very elegant 7th arrondissement of Paris, between the Invalides and the Champs de Mars, the Hôtel de la Motte-Picquet is just a stone's throw from the major Parisian shopping hotspots of the Rue de Babylone and Boulevard Saint-Germain. Take advantage of the summer sales period, between June 28th and July 25th, 2023, to discover all the charm of the district’s shops at lower prices!

 

A rendezvous in Saint-Germain-des-Prés

A meeting place for intellectuals and celebrities during the post-war period, the district has retained the elegance and recherche cache that make it so distinctive. The biggest names in fashion have opened outlets there. Armani, Karl Lagerfeld, and Ralph Lauren rub shoulders with Fragonard, Jacadi and even AS by Alexandra Sojfer. In a few steps, you can pass from the most fashionable shops to the timeless ones that add so much to the district’s lustre. Finally, for a gourmet break, the legendary terraces of Deux Magots and the Café de Flore welcome you where Godard, Sagan, Sartre and Beauvoir once held forth...

 

The essential Bon Marché

Also close to the Hôtel de la Motte-Picquet is the Sèvres-Babylon neighbourhood, home to the historic Bon Marché brand. The first department store in Paris, it inspired the novel Au Bonheur des Dames by Emile Zola. Today, it remains a vibrant epicentre of trends and fashion. The Bon Marché also welcomes you to its dining areas, including its elegant tearoom, bathed in light from the rotunda. And, of course, the Grande Épicerie de Paris food hall is an invitation to indulge, offering fine products from around the world.

 

For much of July, the markdown of labels creates a veritable frenzy in the Parisian boutiques and department stores. Come and taste the intoxicating madness of the sales during your break at the Hôtel de la Motte-Picquet, on the very elegant Left Bank.
