Valentine's Day; a romantic walk in the Marais

A few steps from your Hotel Relais du Marais you and your loved one can embark on a romantic walk to discover the treasures of Paris in the most beautiful ways. This historic district of the capital is home to fascinating places, hidden corners and secret gardens, making it the ideal area for strolling hand-in-hand on Valentine's Day.

The arcades of the Place des Vosges for a romantic stroll on Valentine's Day

To exchange a languid kiss worthy of the most romantic Hollywood movies, head under the arcades of the Place des Vosges, in the heart of the Marais. By day or by night, this former royal square built at the very start of the 17th century is a true one of a kind for a romantic stroll in the Marais on Valentine's Day. It was here that Victor Hugo lived with his wife, in what is today called the Maison de Victor Hugo, a writer’s house museum. If you continue a little further, you will come across the Jardin Saint Gilles Grand Veneur, considered one of the most romantic public gardens in Paris. Visit the Rue de Beautreillis and stroll the romantic alleys of this atmospheric neighbourhood close to the Île Saint Louis.

Legendary places along the route of your romantic stroll

Stop off for a delicious artisanal ice cream at the Berthillon Glacier, a well-known brand in Paris, during your Valentine's Day romantic stroll. Situated at the intersection of the Rue Saint Louis and Rue des Deux Ponts, this ice cream parlour and its warm and authentic décor attracts many couples seeking the romance of the Marais. Why not end your walk with a visit to the nearby Notre Dame Cathedral, one of the most famous Parisian monuments and a symbol of the capital?
