Paris 3rd Arrondissement

In the same family for several generations, this exceptional little hotel in the village-like Marais district of Paris is a genuinely successful marriage of the traditional and designer modern.

Bags of quaint, window-box charm in an old building on a quiet side street, a warm welcome and exemplary standards of comfort and service. The 28 rooms are a good size, elegantly furnished and decorated in contemporary style, with state-of-the-art fixtures and fittings; all are with bath or shower, wc, satellite tv, safe, minibar and are sound-proofed and air-conditioned. There is a small but pleasant reception/lounge area, sauna, and buffet breakfast is taken in the original 16th century stone-vaulted cellar

Traditional in style and values, quality of service and warmth of welcome are watchwords at this well-run, long-established hotel.

Located in a quiet side street just off the bustling, very central République square, with its excellent direct metro links to Eurostar and all the city’s major sites, yet just a gentle stroll from the more tranquil, village-like Marais district. The reception, lounge, bar and stone-vaulted breakfast room have a certain high-ceilinged elegance sometimes lacking in modern chains, and the 39 rooms are spacious, airy and with bath or shower, wc, satellite tv, safe, minibar, iron and ironing-board.
