TLC Paris Concierge note: Rue François 1er is one of the quieter gems of the Golden Triangle. It offers an elegant alternative to the busier shopping avenues while placing you within a few minutes' walk of Avenue Montaigne, Four Seasons Hotel George V, Hôtel Plaza Athénée, Le Cinq and the Seine.

Between Avenue Montaigne and Avenue George V, Rue François 1er stands as one of the most refined streets of Paris’s Golden Triangle.
