If this is your first visit to Paris, you’d be better off staying in a different neighbourhood closer to the famous sights.
If you’re looking to mingle with the locals, this is the place to be. Batignolles & Ternes are up-and-coming residential neighbourhoods, with lovely shops and trendy restaurants. Tourists don’t really find their way here, which has its advantages: you’ll find yourself surrounded by Parisians and can sample French cuisine at classic bistros that are also popular with the locals.
