Rue Saint-Dominique in Paris

After visiting Paris again and again, one thing I can say with absolute certainty. The 7th district is my favourite. I have stayed in each and every arrondissement in this city and I am glad to be in the position to share my opinion as to which area I liked more and which less.

Rue Saint-Dominique in Paris

Rue Saint-Dominique and the surroundings is the winner of my heart. This street has everything you want: flower shops, bakery shops, the cutest french cafes, bars and restaurants, and the cutest hotels in Paris: the Green Spirit Hotels.

In addition to that, if you walk to the end of Rue Saint-Dominique, you will reach another one of my favourite boulevard, L’avenue de La Bourdonnais, which leads to the Eiffel tour.

Budget friendly hotel recommendation in Rue Saint-Dominique in Paris

The Green Spirit hotels consists of 3 small colourful hotels in the 7th arrondisement: Le Pavillon, Amelie and Malar. We checked them all, except the fourth one which is located in Monmartre. They are not like the usual luxury properties that I often get to feature on The Viennese Girl blog.

BUT they are an affordable solution for those who want to visit Paris, and maybe stay a little bit longer than a weekend, but don’t want to spend a fortune in accomodations…everybody knows how expensive this city is, and after all, you don’t go to Paris to stay in the hotel. You go to Paris to see the city, walk around and explore.

You might also want to save some bucks from accomodation to invest on shopping in the french boutiques or on culinary experiences. At Le Pavillon we had a maisonette with a winding staircase that led from the living room to the bedroom. I recommend that you check out the white maisonette, and if you have children, look for a colourful room. I also recommend that you check the vision of the hotel which I personally found very interesting.

Every night on the way back to the hotel, we had the best view that anyone can have in Paris. Again thanks to the amazing location of the Green Spirit Hotels.

The day I checked in at the Le Pavillon, I left the luggage in my room and went out to take some photos on Rue Saint-Dominique. A while later, it started pouring and I decided to retire to the hotel room to wait for Polina to come and have dinner with me at the Monjul

Paris restaurant tip

Monjul restaurant was on the other side of the city, and since it was raining we decided to take a taxi. Monjul was exactly what we needed for that night, a cozy place and great atmosphere to enjoy dinner with my friend and toast our Parisian adventure.

For all of you who follow along on Instagramyou might already have seen the live stories from that night.

Paris Fashion week

This Paris Fashion week from last March was filled with memories that brought a smile to my face as I am writing this. We met so many people who work in the 7th arrondisement and it felt more like we were home. If we forget that my French cell phone got lost (probably stolen) somewhere in Monmartre, everything else went just fine.

Afternoon tea at The Peninsula Paris

The Viennese Girl blog Afternoon tea at The Peninsula Paris

The first thing that was making me super excited about Paris Fashion Week last March was the Cartier Press Event, and the second thing was the Afternoon tea at The Peninsula Paris.

Afternoon tea at The Peninsula Paris

At The Viennese Girl blog, we have a soft spot for a touch of sparkle and sophistication, and Paris is a treasure trove of such delights. Why keep them under wraps, anyway? It’s these little luxuries that keep us coming back. They’re a reminder of why I began this blog: to break away from the ordinary, discover enchanting locales, and dive into new adventures.

As soon as we arrived at The Peninsula for our afternoon tea, the rain started pouring down heavily. It was the perfect timing to seek shelter indoors. I settled into a cozy armchair and treated myself to scrumptious finger sandwiches and pastries.

As we sipped our tea and enjoyed scones with cream and jam, we managed to snap some photos discreetly. Despite our excitement, we made sure not to disturb the other guests in Le Lobby, although it was challenging to contain our enthusiasm.
