A little piece of heaven for readers
Along the park George Brassens, under Les Halles where we used to find slaughterhouses for horses, is since 1987 the market of the old and second-hand books.
Only a few steps from the hotel, in the same street, you will find every Saturday and Sunday of the year this exceptional market which has been established in the Parisian life.
In this big market, there are books for all the tastes and all the budgets.
We find about 200 exhibitors there and every bookseller has its speciality: old, second-hand, history, novel, old magazines, poetry, sciences, etc. The booksellers are fascinating and the conversations that escape from the Halles are very interesting.
You will find beautiful editions with leather bounds, many beautiful engravings but also more recent editions. Many collectors go to the market to find the one book in a million, just like a book hunt!
