About Hotel Les Rives de Notre Dame
Situated in the Latin Quarter in the 5th Arrondissement, which is a very historical part of Paris where people only used to speak Latin, and hence how the area got its name, the Hotel Les Rives de Notre Dame is located within an historical building that was once an inn in the 1500s for the local laundry ladies.
Many original features of the building still remain and provide a wonderful character to this exclusive 4 star hotel in Paris, which include the breakfast room with its stone walls, traditional stone floors and the vaulted ceiling.
In addition, over more recent years it has featured within films and in the 1960s it was to become the residence of the writer John Steinbeck, plus with only 10 rooms, this very intimate hotel has a view over to the island in the River Seine called the Ile de la Cite, which is home to the Notre Dame Cathedral that can be seen from every room.
