As time goes by, Paris continues to reinvent itself as the city of love with a capital L. When you take a Valentine's Day break at the Hotel Albe Bastille, you can enjoy the classic romantic activities, visit unmissable places or try something unusual and off the beaten track. Here are some ideas for you…
A few steps from the hotel
The Hotel Albe Bastille is ideally situated between the Bastille district, with its many cafés and its artisan’s ateliers, and the Marais and its concept stores. A wide choice of restaurants and bars will welcome you for a romantic meal for two, such as under the arcades of the Viaduc des Arts, a five-minute walk away. You can also treat yourself to a tender moment hand in hand in the pretty Jardin de l'Arsenal, a public park that runs alongside the Canal Saint-Martin canal to the Seine. Finally, the Opéra Bastille, less than a ten-minute walk from the hotel, offers superb productions for a prestigious evening of entertainment, with a choice of Carmen, Le Trouvère and Tristan and Isolde.
Always wonderful Paris
Moving beyond our hotel’s district, you might want to explore Montmartre and its iconic attractions as a couple. From a romantic selfie on the forecourt of the Sacré-Coeur Basilica with its stunning view of the city to blissful contemplation in front of the I Love You Wall, by way of the Place du Tertre, where you can be sketched by a caricaturist before enjoying a crêpe, there’s plenty to do on the famous hill. You could also opt for a candlelit dinner on a river boat or a touch of pampering for two in the brand-new Wellness area of the Galeries Lafayette department store...
Unmissable places, unusual activities, and romance are everywhere in Paris. During your stay at the Hotel Albe Bastille, you’ll discover wonderful ways to celebrate your Valentine's Day in Paris.
