L’Hôtel was originally part of the Palace of La Reine Margot and was made into a Pavillion d’Amour, or a Pavillion of Love, in the early 19th Century. It houses a beautiful atrium, which spans six floors. It is not often that an address describes the property, but Rue des Beaux Arts describes L’Hôtel to perfection. Built in 1816, just minutes walk from the intellectual crossroads of Paris – Les Deux Magots, its modest façade cocoons its recently redesigned flamboyant interiors. It is an extravaganza you could only find in Paris. Its 20 bedrooms are pure theatre: stage settings waiting for players. Open any door, and you could be in Africa, China or Turkey and in any century from the 13th onwards. There is a room dedicated to Oscar Wilde, inspired by his dining room in London. In the basement, under the original stone vaulting, there is a replica Roman bath, a hammam and a relaxation room. L’Hôtel is as entertaining as Paris itself.

A rare gem set in a quiet street filled with art galleries, L'Hotel is a dramatic expression of Parisian panache with excitingly decadent decor, a Michelin-starred restaurant, a romantic small pool and sauna in the cellars, and original works of art by Jean Cocteau, set in the heart of St-Germain-des-Pres. An impressive spiral staircase leads to six floors of opulent individually-styled rooms and suites, each a cocoon of wonderfully lavish rich fabrics with original works of art and indulgent bathrooms. Once the home of an impoverished Oscar Wilde, who rented a room here, handwritten notes by the writer are displayed in the lobby lounge. Enjoy a leisurely breakfast on the restaurant terrace and then take the short walk to Boulevard St. Germain. Return after a day s shopping or sightseeing to dine at the hotel s piece de resistance, Le Restaurant, where superb French cuisine created by chef, Philippe Belissent, is enjoyed from deeply comfortable armchairs or sofas set around the tables. L'Hotel is a Small Luxury Hotels of the World property.

L`Hotel has counted quite a few legendary celebrity among its guests and has been the scene of many extraordinary events (including the death of Oscar Wilde). None of the 20 rooms are the same. Each has its own character, its own universe or associated with a decorative detail. Very well located, on the left bank in Saint-Germain des Pres among the Art galleries and antique shops.
