Hotel Dame des Arts

Why do people love staying at Hôtel Dame des Arts?
Guests fall in love with Dame des Arts for its unbeatable central location in the heart of Paris’ historic Left Bank, right in the legendary Arts and Letters quarter. It’s a place where culture, creativity and Parisian life intersect effortlessly. The rooftop bar, offering breathtaking 360-degree views over the city’s rooftops and landmarks, is a real showstopper. Add to that a dynamic, friendly and genuinely attentive team, and the result is a hotel that feels both vibrant and welcoming from the moment you arrive.

What kind of breakfast do you offer?
Breakfast at Dame des Arts is a celebration of French morning rituals. Guests enjoy a generous continental/French buffet featuring classic French pastries — buttery croissants, pain au chocolat and fresh artisanal bread — alongside a selection of French cheeses and charcuterie. Breakfast is served in our in-house restaurant, often spilling out into the garden or courtyard when the weather allows, creating a relaxed atmosphere. For those who prefer a slower start, in-room breakfast is available on request.


Can you recommend good places to eat out locally?
Absolutely — and our guests certainly have their favourites. For classic Parisian dining, Le Procope, La Jacobine, Chez Fernand and Au Père Louis are perennial hits. Those looking for something more bistronomic often love Oktobre, Comme Chai Toi or Didon. And honestly, that’s just the beginning — the list is long. Our Concierge is always delighted to sit down with guests and tailor recommendations to their tastes… and can talk about restaurants for days without running out of ideas.

Which are your most popular room types, and why?
The Signature Terrace Eiffel rooms are without doubt among our most sought-after. They offer an exceptional view of the Eiffel Tower at a relatively accessible price point, making them one of the best value-for-money options in the hotel. Rooms with Eiffel Tower views are rare in Paris, and this combination of view, terrace and affordability makes it a highly desirable — and hard-to-find — product.

What facilities do you have for children, and can you fit extra beds in your rooms?
We love welcoming families. For children, we offer colouring books, board games and even custom-made T-shirts for kids and babies, with more child-friendly amenities coming soon. In terms of accommodation, we have Family Rooms (Classic Connecting Rooms), as well as three rooms equipped with sofa beds. Some rooms can also accommodate a baby cot for newborns, making the hotel suitable for families of different sizes and ages.

What message would you like to give The Hotel Guru readers?
Dame des Arts is not designed to impress. It is designed to be felt. On the Left Bank, the house unfolds like a living narrative — a place where one doesn’t simply stay, but settles in. Here, the art of Parisian living takes shape through cinema, literature, contemporary art and design, woven naturally into the rhythm of everyday life. Nothing is staged. Culture is not displayed; it is lived. A film reference surfaces in a conversation, a book waits to be opened, a material invites touch, a silhouette of Paris frames the moment. Design is intuitive, hospitality sincere, elegance effortless. Everything encourages guests to slow down, to observe, to let themselves drift. To experience Paris at their own pace — while Dame des Arts quietly takes care of the rest.
