boutiques that line it, the rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré,
however, houses a myriad of hotels, restaurants, bars, salons
de thé and ‘in’ places that make it one of Paris’ liveliest spots.

still haberdashery and hardware stores in

in term of real estate prices, the square meter easily reaches 15 000 € as it
is the case for its great rival in luxury: Avenue Montaigne. If love has no
price, fashion has one. Rue Saint Honoré is an eclectic mix of fashion
enthusiasts, graphic designers and communicators, wealthy tourists and

also been shot in
the Rue Saint

Juliette Binoche,
several of which
have been filmed at
the Hotel Coste.
In another field of activity, even if it officially gets its name
from “Saint-Honore” who is considered the baker’s saint, one
can not help thinking that the Saint-Honoré cake can not also
be named because of the address of the house Chiboust who
created it in 1847.
