The most magical weekend in Paris - A stay at Sofiel Le Sribe Paris Opéra

Sofiel Le Sribe Paris Opéra 


Paris is always an incredible city to visit but in the lead-up, to Christmas, it really is something magical just like you see in the movies. My Mam planned this trip and WOW she really knocked it out of the park. I don't know anyone who knows how to do Paris better than her. If you want to browse all of my Paris recommendations you can check out my Instagram highlights. This post is dedicated to just a couple of recommendations on this specific. trip. 

Our accomadation

Sofitel Le Scribe Paris Opéra was fully renovated in 2020 and you can absolutely see it when you step foot into the property. This five-star hotel is in the perfect location, located on the right bank with a view of the Opéra Garnier, Place Vendôme & all major shops. If you are looking for a real treat, this is the perfect place to stay on your trip to the city of love. One thing I always rave about when telling people about Sofitel as a hotel chain in general is their breakfast! Do not miss out on their buffet breaky if you are booking a stay. 

Food, drinks and places to visit 
  • Restaurant L'Assaggio - We went to restaurant L'Assaggio for lunch on the day we arrived and wow it was delish. This restaurant is in the well-known Hôtel Castille Paris with the menu signed by the Michelin-starred Chef Ugo Alciati. If you are a foodie this is one for you! 
  • A glass of bubbles and pastry from Pasticceria Cova - This is such a cute little spot right beside the Samaritaine shopping center. The perfect spot after a few hours of browsing the shops. 
  • Shopping at Samaritaine Paris Point-Neuf - If you like all things luxury this is absolutely the department store for you. We spent so long browsing all of the beautiful brands and taking in the Christmas atmosphere. We walked along the water from the Louvre but The nearest métro station is Pont-Neuf.
  • Dinner at AO IZAKAYA for Sushi lovers - If you are a sushi fan this place is absolutey worth visiting. It was right behind our hotel which was perfect location-wise. The menu hosts a range of Japanese cuisine with a French flair.
  • A fashion show at Galeries Lafayette - As I said my Mam absolutely knows how to do Paris the right way, and one thing she booked was a fashion show at Galeries Lafayette. If you are planning a trip do check out if they have any events on whilst you are in the city, there seems to always be something on :)
  • Nutcracker at Casino de Paris - This was just out of this world and made our trip even more special. If you can, try booking a show at the  Casino de Paris, the ballet was spectacular.
  • Christmas windows: Printemps & Galeries Lafayette - These windows are a must if you are in Paris in the lead-up to Christmas. It is also a really free thing to do, I know a lot of people do not like to pay to go into places, and just like to roam the streets with a takeaway coffee or gluhwein ;)
