Paris. A voyage to Paris, Ile-de-France, France, West Europe.

Paris is regarded as one of the most vibrant and cosmopolitan metropolises in Europe and with good reason. If you are planning a stay in cheap Paris hotels and are keen to sample the city’s nightlife, here are five of the best districts to visit.

Latin Quarter
Favoured by students who attend the nearby Sorbonne University, this part of Paris offers an eclectic mix of bars, cafes and bistros. Le Piano Vache is a relaxed piano bar on rue Laplace, where you can kick back and listen to the music while enjoying a beer. If jazz music is more to your taste, why not visit Caveau des Oubliettes on rue Galande? Set in a series of vaulted cellars with a distinctly medieval feel, this unusual venue is a great place to listen to some of Paris’s top jazz musicians. Stroll along rue de Thouin, meanwhile, and you will come across Le Teddy’s Bar, a fantastic place for a bit of fun. Board games are available for patrons to play, and darts tournaments are a regular feature in this establishment.
St. Germain
If you want to combine your evening out with some fine food, head to St. Germain, where you will find an array of bistros and brasseries serving up delicious cuisine in often beautiful surroundings. One of the best places to be seen is Alcazar on rue Mazarine. You can tuck into some of the food under its large glass roof, or, if you visit between Thursday and Sunday, you can party the night away with one of the guest DJs on the mezzanine level. Meanwhile, if you want to watch the world go by while sampling a selection of Mediterranean dishes, head to La Bastide Odeon. This establishment on rue Corneille is near the French Senate, so you may find politicians among the other diners here.
