Beautiful view from the roof top terrace. It is free & worth a trip to see.

3/5 - Okay

Overcrowded and filled with the same brands you can get anywhere else on earth. Go next door to Printemps, which has the same things and less than half the crowd.

5/5 - Excellent

The roof offers an excellent view of Paris! Make sure to check out their epicurean center as well.

Go to the rooftop to see fabulous views of the city!

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveler

Looks like a conventional department store, but the individual counters/sections are operated by individual companies and brands. In the watches section, for instance, Rolex, Le Coultre, Bulgari, etc. had their individual areas. Be advised, all the goods sold here were top of the line. Be prepared to pay top dollar (euro).
