"A place with a dance floor located in Montmarte, Paris."
"A former home of the Hermès family, now a five-suite hotel with a massive wraparound garden designed by Louis Benech. Guests can dine outdoors surrounded by magnolia, ivy-kissed sycamore maple trees, and vibrant plant life."
"Down a quiet cobblestoned street, past an unmarked gate, through the second door of a 19th-century mansion, and you’re home. Once the residence of people with last names like Rothschild and Hermès, this refuge has been transformed by Oscar Comtet, a young entrepreneur with a dynamic vision and keen eye, into the ultimate private hideaway." - Sandra Ramani, Lindsey Tramuta
"This hotel is described by many as 'a country house in the heart of Paris', thanks to its lush garden and the care lavished on it by Oscar Comtet, the current Manager and a landscape gardener by training." - Le Guide MICHELIN
"How did it strike you on arrival?Down a quiet cobblestoned street, past an unmarked gate, through the second door of a 19th-century mansion, and you’re home. Once the residence of people with last names like Rothschild and Hermès, this refuge has been transformed by Oscar Comtet, a young entrepreneur with a dynamic vision and keen eye, into the ultimate private hideaway. The public spaces and restaurant are boudoir-posh, with lots of blush and golden velvet. The standout gem is the nearly 9,700-square-foot walled garden, designed by Louis Benech, the same architect as Le Jardin des Tuileries. Nice. What’s the crowd like?To the regulars—the Paris junkies, the low-key A-listers, the visiting BFFs of plugged-in locals—we apologize for revealing your secret hideaway. The good stuff: Tell us about your room.After many years untouched, the hotel’s designer Pierre Lacroix overhauled the five suites in 2022, each with their own radically different look and feel. In the Jardin sur le Nil (Garden on the Nile) suite, walls are lined with a green-hued trellis wallpaper (Treilis Exotica from Iksel) depicting nature scenes while rattan and bamboo furnishings pair with Art Deco floral sconces and mosaics (in the bathroom). The mood takes a decidedly more seductive turn in other rooms, like the Lazy Leopardess suite which is kitted out with a leopard-print wall covering from Pierre Frey and matching feline rug, ruby red-lacquered walls, all-over ceiling mirrors, and vintage Hans Kögl Florentine laps, among other antiqued pieces. The top-floor glass-canopied loft, accessed via a private staircase, is the room to book for exceptional views over the city. —Lindsey Tramuta We’re craving some deep, restorative sleep. They got us?The King beds are topped with crisp linens and deluxe pillows. Please tell us the bathroom won’t let us down.The size and style of the bathrooms is as varied as that of the suites themselves. Depending on the range, the bathroom might be done up white or red marble, checkerboard tile floors, or embellished with hand-crafted mosaics. The Folies du Ciel suite is perhaps the most unique with a bathtub set in the middle of the bathroom. All feature Hermès bath and body products. Maybe the most important topic of all: Wi-Fi. What’s the word?Wi-Fi is complimentary. Room service: Worth it?In keeping with the house party vibe, the staff are always on hand to whisk you up something from the limited room service menu, or a cup of Mariage Fréres tea. Anything stand out about other services and features? Whether it’s childcare, gyms, spas, even parking—whatever stuck with you.Breakfast is not included, but it's worth the nominal rate to savor freshly-prepared eggs and toast drizzled with honey from local bees in the gorgeous gardens; note that the multi-course Sunday brunch is a hot ticket for locals, so reservations are a must. The Grand Salon restaurant serves inventive nouveau-French cuisine for lunch and dinner—as well as an English-style afternoon tea--either indoors or in the garden. At night it’s also a cocktail bar that’s become a beloved hideaway for in-the-know Parisians from the fashion, media, and celeb circles. Bottom line: worth it, and why?You'll feel like a member of an elite country house weekend party - and gain entree to one of Paris' best-kept secrets - at this true original." - Sandra Ramani
