Book the Conciergerie, the first royal palace in Paris

Wonderfully located on the banks of the Seine, in the Ile de la Cité, in the heart of Paris, the Conciergerie is a unique place for receptions because of its history and its exceptional set of Gothic rooms built in the 14th century by King Philip the Fair.
From this period, the Conciergerie still has the Guards' room and the huge room of the Gens d'Armes. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is, along with the Sainte-Chapelle, the most important testimony to the first royal palace in Paris.
