Hotel Sophie Germain — News

One of the charms of the City of Light is its ability to surprise you with a host of less well-known or even downright obscure attractions, each of which have a magic and a fascination of their own, and which definitely deserve to be a part of the itinerary of your visit.

If you’re passionate about sport, and tennis in particular, then you’ll certainly need no further encouragement to spend your spring break in Paris during the time of the fabulous French Open tennis championship at Roland-Garros, which every year provides a venue for the cream of world tennis.

Here in Paris the weather may not be as sunny as we might wish. However, and this is where the magic of the French capital comes in, regardless of the vagaries of climate and temperature, you need never be short of ideas for things to do in this city of art, culture, history…and shopping.

At annual fairs such as the Salon du Livre in Paris Expo, Porte de Versailles, or Art Paris Art Fair under the dome of the Grand Palais, it's essential to choose where to make the most of the events.
