BHV Marais – Iconic Paris Department Store for Fashion, Beauty, Home & Lifestyle
Facing the Hôtel de Ville on Rue de Rivoli, BHV Marais is one of Paris’s best-known department stores and a longstanding shopping landmark in the heart of Le Marais. Located in the 4th arrondissement, the store brings together fashion, beauty, homeware, decoration, lifestyle and practical everyday shopping under one historic Paris roof.
Unlike department stores focused primarily on luxury fashion, BHV has traditionally combined style with usefulness. Visitors can explore fashion and accessories alongside beauty, interior decoration, furniture, lighting, tableware, kitchen equipment, home organisation, DIY and lifestyle collections. This broad mix has long made BHV as relevant to Parisians furnishing or improving their homes as it is to visitors looking for French brands, gifts and contemporary design.
The home departments are particularly associated with the BHV identity, spanning cookware, tableware, decorative objects, textiles and practical household essentials. Fashion, beauty and accessories add another dimension, creating a department-store experience that moves easily between everyday Parisian life and more considered design and style purchases.
2026 renovation update: BHV Marais is currently undergoing a major transformation. From May to September 2026, renovation and redevelopment work is taking place throughout the store as BHV prepares its next chapter. The department store remains open during this period, although access, departments and the visitor experience may change as work progresses. Visitors travelling specifically for a particular brand or department should check current availability before making a special journey.
On the rooftop, Terraza Mikuna offers a very different BHV experience, with Latin American-inspired food, cocktails and panoramic views across central Paris. The seasonal rooftop makes an appealing stop for lunch, drinks or an evening above the Marais, particularly during the current transformation of the main store.
BHV’s central location also makes it easy to combine shopping with a wider day in Paris. From Rue de Rivoli, visitors can explore the streets and boutiques of Le Marais, continue towards Place des Vosges, visit the Centre Pompidou area, or cross the Seine towards the Île de la Cité and Left Bank.
With its unusual combination of fashion, beauty, home, decoration and practical lifestyle departments, BHV Marais remains a distinctive Paris department store rather than simply a luxury shopping destination. Its current renovation marks a period of transition, but its position opposite Hôtel de Ville and its broad approach to Parisian shopping continue to make it an important address in the centre of the capital.
