“17th-Century honey-stone townhouse turned luxury hotel. Ideally situated on the Left Bank of the Seine, this period-style hotel is smart and well run. Comfortable rooms are decked with quality furnishings and exposed beams. Enjoy a drink at the Piano Bar or on the quiet patio. ”

Hotel review

Four-star comfort combines with personal touches at this hotel in a 17th-century honey-stone house arranged around a large courtyard. Huge double doors – formerly a coach entrance – lead from the street into an airy lobby, off which Café Laurent has attracted the literati and glitterati since 1690. The lovely sitting room has a cosy feeling despite its grand proportions, and bedrooms cocoon their inhabitants in sound-proofed luxury.
