Libertel Gare du Nord Suede

Libertel Gard du Nord Suede has managed to snag a location halfway between two of Paris’ biggest train stations – Gard du Nord and Gard de l’Est. With each just a handy 5-minute stroll away, you’ll have no trouble getting around Paris, or even further afield.

This area of Paris is best known for being home to Canal Saint Martin – a part of the city that’s popular with the locals. The canal itself is about a 15-minute walk from the hotel, and is lined with trendy bars, restaurants, and boutiques. If you’re a sucker for a street market, you’ll love it here – the 10th arrondissement is home to Marché Saint-Quentin and Marché Saint-Martin. Foodies in particular will enjoy the range of local produce on offer.

Fill up at the hotel’s breakfast buffet or meander out into the streets of Paris and find a café. Enjoy an al fresco breakfast on the banks of the canal or grab your cappuccino (and maybe a croissant) to go, and ramble through the parks and gardens of the city – you never know what you might find.
