Here are our recommendations for the best vantage points from which to admire Paris' finest panoramic perspectives, where every skyline tells a story.
The Montparnasse Tower: a 360-degree spectacle
Although less famous than the Eiffel Tower, the Tour Montparnasse offers perhaps the best panoramic view in Paris. At 210 meters high, the 56th floor and the terrace at the top offer a breathtaking view of all the city's emblematic monuments. Day or night, observing Paris from this height is absolutely spectacular. Visitors can see the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, and even the hills of Montmartre on the horizon. It's a must for those who want to capture breathtaking photos or simply savor a moment of tranquility above the urban hustle and bustle, making every visit a memorable adventure.
Printemps Haussmann: Shopping and Panorama
For an experience that combines the pleasure of shopping with the pleasures of the view, the Printemps Haussmann rooftop terrace is perfect. Located on the ninth floor of the department store, this vantage point offers an exceptional panorama stretching over the Opéra Garnier, the rooftops of Paris and the Eiffel Tower. As well as admiring the view, visitors can enjoy a coffee or meal in the rooftop restaurant, making it the ideal place for a refreshing break after a day's shopping on the Grands Boulevards. The terrace is also a popular venue for evening events, where the sunset over Paris offers an unrivalled spectacle.
Paris is full of wonders to discover, and seeing it from above offers a fascinating new perspective on its architectural and historical treasures. Whether from the dizzying heights of the Tour Montparnasse or the elegant comfort of the Printemps Haussmann, each panorama offers a unique and memorable experience. For guests of Hôtel Les Tournelles, these locations represent an excellent opportunity to see Paris from a different angle, adding a magical dimension to their stay in the City of Light. Exploring these views is an invitation to experience Parisian romance in all its splendor.
