Le Point Ephémère, 15 minutes on foot from 9 Hotel République
Located on Quai de Valmy, a 15-minute walk from the 9Hotel République, Point Ephémère is a multi-disciplinary artistic and cultural venue opened in 2004. Housed in a former construction warehouse, it has planted its feet in the Canal Saint-Martin, to the point where its name belies the fact that it is now so much a part of the Parisian alternative scene. Promoting all forms of art in a Berlin setting with hundreds of graffiti, it offers exhibitions, concerts of pop, rock and hip-hop music and techno evenings. As soon as the sun comes out, the Point Ephémère is a hive of activity.
Le Point Ephémère, an artistic venue in the 10th arrondissement of Paris
A center for artistic dynamics, Point Ephémère supports young artists and offers an offbeat, trendy program in tune with the times. You'll have no trouble finding it. From the hotel, just take rue de Lancy from the Jacques Bonsergent metro station, which leads straight to Quai de Valmy. Following the Canal Saint-Martin, you should be able to see a flag flying at the side of some sort of turret from quite a distance. It's that of Point Ephémère. If it's green, it means that the rooftop bar, Le Top, is open and ready to welcome you behind its palm trees, on one of its deckchairs.
If it's not, you'll find the lower room open, at water level, and you'll embark on an original meal, a visit to an exhibition or one of those astonishingly original concerts.
Over the weekend, Point Éphémère transforms itself into a club, where you'll be welcome until 2am.
A hotel near Place de la République and Quai de Valmy
Are you looking for a Quai de Valmy hotel in Paris, or close to that magical spot along the Canal Saint-Martin that makes you dream even before you get there? Our hotel is equidistant from the Place de la République and the Quai de Valmy, where you'll find the Point Éphémère and so many other pleasant places to discover: terraces, restaurants, cafés, concert halls and squares...
A little off the beaten track yet not far from the city center, the banks of the Canal Saint-Martin offer Parisian strollers and tourists a sense of calm and exile from the urban and very mineral geography of the French capital.
So the 9Hotel République, located just 1 km from the center of Paris in one of the capital's trendiest districts, is the ideal place for a relaxed, cultural stay in the beating heart of the City of Light.
200 Quai de Valmy 75010 Paris.
