About Renting a Car at Paris 7th arrondissement

Rent a car in Paris 7th arrondissement and have the Eiffel Tower, Musée d'Orsay, and Les Invalides as neighbors. The district on the south bank of the Seine is one of Paris' most exclusive and central areas, with easy access to highways heading south. One rental company serves this arrondissement.

From here it's 14 km to Orly airport via A6 and 18 km to Versailles Palace via D910, making it an excellent starting point for day trips. Pick up your car early in the morning to avoid traffic on Quai d'Orsay and Pont de l'Alma.
