OUR LOCATION & NEIGHBOURHOOD

EXPLORE PARIS FROM HYDE

Hyde Paris sur Seine sits on the Pointe des Arts, the upstream tip of Île Seguin, where the old Renault factory island has become a stage for music, art and film. Walk to a concert at La Seine Musicale, an exhibition at Le Large or a late screening at the Pathé IMAX. Cross a footbridge into Boulogne-Billancourt or Meudon, hop on the tram to La Défense, or take the metro into the heart of Paris.
