Schedule
Paris offers a great selection of hotels and guests should feel free to stay where they wish.
The groom's family will be staying near the venues on the Right Bank while the bride's family will be staying in Saint-Germain-des-Prés on the Left Bank. We've compiled a map of hotels we can recommend in these areas - most are small / boutiquey. Some great options include:
​
If you are booking at the Cayré, Lutetia or any 5-Star hotels in Paris, we highly recommend booking via our amazing travel advisor Nadine for some great rates / perks. Nadine is in charge of our honeymoon so we promise you are in GREAT hands…
​
Where to stay
We have heard that this is a particularly busy weekend in Paris, so we strongly recommend booking as soon as you can.
Our favourite things to do...
You cannot go wrong in Paris, but if you are in need of inspiration, here are some of our favourite spots:
Museums
We will be arranging a couple of museum tours for those interested in an art moment during the weekend (stay tuned). Our favourites include the Musée Rodin, Musée Jacquemart-André and Fondation Cartier.
Restaurants
Besides Langosteria, we love Le Bon Saint Pourçain (cute bistro in a narrow alleyway near the Jardin de Luxembourg), Le Bon Georges (Adnan recommends the chocolate mousse), Le Petit Lutetia (our "go-to"), Caché (tucked-away location with excellent fish) and ​Le Récamier (for the soufflé).​
Bars
Fréquence and Bambino for great cocktails over the sound of vinyl records, or Septime La Cave (a Gussie Conway special) for natural wines in a chic hole-in-the-wall location.
Running routes
My (Yasmin's) go-to is run along the the Seine starting at the Musée d'Orsay towards the Eiffel Tower until I reach Lady Liberty, after which I turn around and run back on the Right Bank through the Tuileries Garden (~10km).
​
My favourite route, however, is along the Coulée Verte René-Dumont, which is a converted old railway line, and starts at the Opéra Bastille.

​Honestly, if you are going to run during the weekend, please invite me :)
