Au printemps Paris

Au printemps is a great department store in Paris that has been around since the 1870's. The facade of the store is a great representation of the great Gilded Age. Inside Au printemps, the many floors of merchandise are divided into housewares, women's fashion and men's clothing. There is also a perfume section which easily matches anything in Galeries Lafayette. The magnificent stained-glass dome in Au printemps allows some beautiful turquoise light cascades to fall into the sixth-floor Café Flo. There, customers enjoy a cup of relaxing coffee or a fabulous meal. Although shoppers may get more attention in Galeries Lafayette, Au printemps's customer service is outstanding. The care and satisfaction that buyers often make claim to could put all major department stores in Paris to shame. There are several interpreters at the welcome service in Printemps de la Mode who are specially trained to help you find whatever it is that you need. Au printemps also has a tourist discount card which offers a 10% discount on anything in the store. Au printemps is open from Monday to Wednesday and Friday to Saturday from 9:35 am to 7:00 pm. It is also open on Thursdays from 9:35 am to 9:00 pm.
