“A stylish and intimate boutique, in the heart of fashionable Saint-Germain. The eleven colour themed rooms (larger than you average Paris hotel) are bathed in natural light. Enjoy a relaxed breakfast in bed or in the charming courtyard. Perfectly placed for a glamourous weekend away.”

Hotel Review

The tiny ground floor of this new boutique hotel has been as cleverly designed as a boat, with space for sitting beside the hi-tech fire (flames leaping from white pebbles), breakfast tables and a reception desk. The man responsible for the cool, stylish look (a marriage of rosewood, mirror, chrome, velvet and stone) is Bruno Borrione, associate of Philippe Starck. Upstairs, bedrooms are surprisingly large, lined with a restful wallpaper of stylized trees, with leather and mirrored furniture and Missoni rugs. Minutes from Bon Marché.

Le Placide

"Designer Bruno Borrione certainly knows how to pretty up a hotel room. Add a chic address in Saint-Germain, and you've got the perfect place to base a whirlwind city break."
