Not a Factory Hotel: La Manufacture in Paris

The European Independent Film Festival took place this weekend (14-16 March) at Paris's least-known but most superb building, the National Library, or Bibliothèque Nationale de France.
We went along to check out the scene, and the place was filled with American film directors and talent-spotters looking to snatch up the young&hopefuls of European cinema. All of them complaining loudly about their pricey city-centre hotels miles and miles from the National Library, which is tucked away in the south east of Paris.
Damn, there's no need for that. No one outside Paris has heard about the 13th arrondissement, which is where you'll find the National Library, but we bet a night's stay in the George V that within a year it'll take over as the trendy boho area of Paris.
