DISCOVER THE SOUL OF SAINT GERMAIN
history, art and wandering

 

Just a few steps from the hotel, the Church of Saint Germain des Pres reflects the thousand year history of the neighborhood. Around the abbey, cobbled streets and shaded squares invite you to wander among historic façades and hidden addresses.

Saint Germain remains one of Paris’s major artistic centers. The galleries along rue de Seine, rue des Beaux Arts and rue Mazarine showcase a demanding and international contemporary scene.

Within walking distance, the Musée d Orsay houses one of the finest Impressionist collections in the world, while the Musée Eugène Delacroix, hidden behind a peaceful garden, offers a more intimate cultural pause.

Back at Hotel Bel Ami, a relaxing moment at the spa naturally extends this cultural immersion.

In a spirit of complete calm, the spa at Hotel Bel Ami offers a moment of well being at the heart of Saint Germain’s vibrant energy.

Tailor made treatments and massages prolong this sense of letting go in a soft and soothing atmosphere. Here, time slows down, the body relaxes and the mind regains its balance, turning each return to the hotel into a true ritual of renewal on the Left Bank.
