Hôtel Saint-Jacques (film) (Rue Censier)
In the story · The hotel
The modest 'Hôtel Saint-Jacques' where Reggie and Peter take rooms (and where Cary Grant showers in his suit) was this Latin Quarter building, with a fake 'Saint-Jacques' métro sign put up across the street at Rue de Mirbel. The building still stands, though the hotel that trades on the film today is at 35 Rue des Écoles.
