Île Saint-Louis

Île Saint-Louis is a charming little island in the heart of Paris, full of quiet streets, beautiful old buildings, and a peaceful atmosphere. It feels like a step back in time, away from the busy city. Great place for a stroll, with lovely views of the Seine and cozy cafés.

Walking around the island is something you never forget. It’s scenic & tranquil. The most charming promenade that I walk recently. Recommend to all the outsiders who stay in Paris for a short period of time.

We visited 23 Feb 19. The weather was perfect. The sun was shining and walk the 90 minute walk was fantastic. We leisurely looked at the small book and art stalls all the way down the side of the river. We popped in the various restaurants and bars along the way. The architecture on the buildings are amazing. You can see the river boats going up and down the river. I must say they were heaving both top and bottom. But this is a nice walk leading to other areas in Paris which you’ll come across and be pleased to see.

Definitely you will visit and walks this parisian small island and try to enjoy something like a beer or a hot glass of wine during your stay.

A week on Ile Saint Louis is just the best in the world.. local, safe, wonderful restaurants and close to Le Marais, Saint Germaine and easy metro to everywhere.. I was ready to buy my apartment there!!

Surrounded by the seine, this is a lovely little island, not as popular as its bigger brother it is well worth a visit, the streets are quieter, and there are a few eateries to enjoy.

An island in Paris France . a place where politicians, artist, singers etc live. Oh, they have a wonderful cheese store, ice cream shop that is well know and much more. Staying on the island right across Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris and watched the beautiful lights at night. We also had a magnificent view of Eiffel Tower. This island has several churches with lovely performances.

A touristic place to relax and looking at the Seine and Notre Dame Church. Below the bridge you can also do a picnic with your friends.

I love visiting this island because it is slightly off the beaten path even though it is close to Notre Dame. Probably because only buses run on the island. If you need a little break from the bustle it's a great destination to grab lunch or sit along the Seine.
