The Essence of Paris

from€999
for 3 nights

Right in the heart of Paris, moored along the Seine, you’ll enjoy three nights of French charm, elegance, and tranquility. Your refined retreat offers a unique perspective on the city: in the morning, the river sparkles in the sunlight as booksellers set up their stalls; in the evening, the golden glow of the city reflects on the water, with views of Notre-Dame’s towers or the glittering Eiffel Tower.

From here, you can explore Paris at your own pace – strolling through Le Marais, sipping a café au lait along the riverside, or enjoying a picnic with a view of Île Saint-Louis. And when you seek quiet moments, the sun deck awaits – accompanied by the soft sounds of the city and the gentle ripple of the Seine.

A Parisian escape as elegant as it is atmospheric – unhurried, timeless, and unforgettable.
