The building itself is a notable landmark, acting as the seat for the Mayor of Paris. While in the area, enjoy a stroll round one of the city's most diverse districts: the beautiful Place des Vosges, the gay bars of the Marais and the Jewish quarter round the Rue des Rosiers are all within walking distance.
