Batignolles is one of the most pleasant areas of the 17th arrondissement. Around Place Félix-Lobligeois, cafés, restaurants, small shops and terraces create a village-like atmosphere in the heart of Paris. It is a great and quite modern neighborhood, perfect for wandering without a strict itinerary, grabbing a coffee or stopping for something to eat.
Batignolles lets you experience a lively and residential side of Paris with much less tourist pressure than the central neighborhoods.
