At a Glance
A favorite with the fashion crowd who enjoy the hotel’s 3rd arrondissement location and proximity to stylish boutiques and galleries.
Review
With a beautiful glass facade that dates from the 1900s, this vest-pocket Marais hotel, housed in an old building that was once a bakery in the 1600s, is a big hit with the fashion crowd and creative types who like being within walking distance of many of the city’s edgiest boutiques and galleries. Using graphic wallpaper—florals, stripes and polka dots, and toile de Joüy—designer Christian Lacroix gave each of the seventeen rooms a different look. Furnishings include Arne Jacobsen Swan chairs, Venetian mirrors and leather-covered built-ins. Rooms are well lit and air-conditioned, but there’s no restaurant (you can order room service from neighboring restaurants). This little charmer is perfect for style-conscious couples that travel light.
Who Should Stay
This is a perfect choice for style-conscious couples that travel light.
