Le Walt Hotel is situated on the Left Bank of the Seine not far from Saint-Germain-des-Pres which is accessible by foot. Paris’ left bank, particularly Saint-Germain-des-Pres and Saint-Michel, have long been the quarters of authors, publishers and antique dealers.
The Left Bank is known as the intellectual and artistic bank; today this reputation is somewhat legitimately disputed by the Rive Droite.
