Found on the East side of the Seine River is the Hauts-de-Seine department town of Nanterre. Over the years, the commune has undergone radical change, transforming from a heavily industrialised community, to an administrative business epicentre. The city of Nanterre also includes the Paris West University Nanterre La Défense, one of the largest universities in the Paris region and is in close proximity to central Paris, just 12 km away. Being so close to the city, not to mention various other communes, suburbs, and urban centres, makes hiring a car from Nanterre one of your top priorities. To make travelling even easier, you can car hire from 50/64 Avenue Francois Arago, located 1.5 km from central Nanterre.
Approximately 20 minutes away you can soon be at the beautiful Saint-Germain-en-Laye with its elegant tree-lined streets for those who want to escape the busy city. It is one of the more affluent suburbs of Paris, and is home to a combination of high-end leisure spots and exclusive residential neighbourhoods. There are many things to visit including the Château de Saint-Germain-en-Laye, beautiful forest walks, Musee d'Archeologie Nationale as well as the vast array of cafes, restaurants and bars. For the football fans among you, Saint-Germain-en-Laye has a proud footballing history so why not hire a car from Nanterre and spend the day there.
