At the Relais Du Vieux Paris Hotel, you'll find it all, right in the neighborhood: the Seine, the Place Saint-Michel, theflower Market, Notre-Dame, the Louvre and Orsay Museums... In this area with village-like charm, you'll fall under the spell of this vintage building bursting with poetry: the Relais-Hotel du Vieux Paris. Relais-Hotel du Vieux Paris has a history all its own! Built in 1480, it belonged to the Duc de Luynes and the Duc d'O and was once the dwelling place of Pierre Seguier, the true Marquis d'O. In the 1950s and 60s, American poets adopted the site and in the same movement created the "Beat Generation". Among them were Burroughs, Kerouac, Ginsberg, Corso. Today, nostalgie souls are returning from Japan, Australia, America and Europe and bringing with them a new generation of artists.
