A PARISIAN APARTMENT IN SAINT-GERMAIN-DES-PRÉS
Categories : Parisian life, published on : 9/23/26
Staying in Paris for several days invites you to slow down and experience the city differently. In Saint-Germain-des-Prés, choosing an apartment means enjoying more space, freedom and comfort while remaining at the heart of Parisian life.
More than simply a place to stay, the apartment becomes a genuine Parisian pied-à-terre: somewhere to spend time together, take a break between visits and organise each day at your own pace. It is a gentler, more personal way to experience Paris, particularly suited to extended stays, whether as a couple, with family or friends, or during a business trip.
WHY CHOOSE AN APARTMENT
for an extended stay in Paris?
An extended stay in Paris allows you to enjoy the city in a freer and more personal way. Life slows down, and having somewhere beautiful and comfortable to return to becomes all the more important — a place designed to feel like your own Parisian home. A welcoming space where you can enjoy coffee in the morning, come together at the end of the day, work for a few hours or simply take a break between visits. The longer the stay, the more comfort, atmosphere and the pleasure of returning to your own space become part of the experience itself.
An apartment responds precisely to this desire to temporarily live in Paris rather than simply stay overnight. A kitchenette provides greater independence, while a separate living room makes it easier to distinguish moments of relaxation from the rest of the day. For families and friends, having several distinct spaces also makes organising the stay more comfortable.
At Hôtel Bel Ami, the different apartment categories combine this independence with the services of a five-star hotel: room service, a Clefs d’Or concierge, spa and fitness facilities all remain available throughout the stay. The concierge can also assist with restaurant reservations, sightseeing, transportation and activities.
Ideal for: an extended stay, a longer business trip, couples looking for more space or a family holiday in Paris.

LIVING IN SAINT-GERMAIN-DES-PRÉS
as if it were your own neighbourhood
One of the pleasures of an extended stay is no longer feeling the need to turn every day into a packed sightseeing itinerary. From Rue Saint-Benoît, it takes only a few minutes to reach Place Saint-Germain-des-Prés, the galleries along Rue de Seine or Place de Fürstenberg. The latter is home to the Musée National Eugène-Delacroix, located in the former apartment and studio where the painter lived from 1857.
The following day can be entirely different: wander down towards the banks of the Seine, walk to the Musée d’Orsay — around twenty minutes away depending on the route — or continue towards the Jardin du Luxembourg for a longer stroll.
Over several days, Saint-Germain gradually becomes a neighbourhood to call your own. You can return to a bookshop discovered the day before, spend an afternoon exploring galleries, cross the Seine for an exhibition or simply settle into a café without thinking about the next place on your itinerary.
Practical details:
- Place de Fürstenberg and Rue de Seine: approximately 5 to 10 minutes on foot
- Saint-Sulpice: less than 10 minutes on foot
- Musée d’Orsay: approximately 20 minutes on foot
- Jardin du Luxembourg: within walking distance, easily combined with a stroll through Saint-Sulpice.

TAKING YOUR TIME
between culture, well-being and moments at home
A longer stay also makes it easier to alternate between different kinds of days. A morning at a museum can be followed by an afternoon without plans. A day of business meetings can end at the Bel Ami Spa. Families can plan a morning visit, return to the hotel for lunch or a rest, then head out again in the late afternoon.
This is precisely what an apartment changes: Paris is no longer simply a succession of places to visit, but a city in which you gradually establish your own routine.
HOTEL BEL AMI
a pied-à-terre for experiencing Paris at your own pace
At 7 Rue Saint-Benoît, Hôtel Bel Ami occupies a 19th-century building that, in 1885, housed the printing house associated with Guy de Maupassant’s novel Bel-Ami. Today, this literary heritage is brought into dialogue with contemporary interiors designed by Pascal Allaman and the vibrant cultural life of modern-day Saint-Germain-des-Prés.
Choosing an apartment at Hôtel Bel Ami for an extended stay means bringing together two experiences that are rarely combined: the freedom of a Parisian apartment and the attentive service of a five-star hotel. It offers a way to discover the Left Bank less as a visitor passing through and more as a temporary resident of Saint-Germain-des-Prés.
