Walk, cycle, run, in complete freedom
Between the Seine quays and the Luxembourg Gardens, the La Louisiane neighborhood is one of the most suitable places in Paris for walking, jogging or cycling. The small streets, alleys and lanes, developed by the City, give priority to cyclists and pedestrians.
Feel safe and secure
Far from the urban bustle of the hyper-touristic 'spots' on the Right Bank, our neighborhood charms travelers with its chic and relaxed atmosphere, but also with the sense of security it provides. The presence of many ministries, the National Assembly and the Senate means that the police presence is strong and visible.
