Restaurant
Frenchie Pigalle
Chef Grégory Marchand serves modern sharing plates, from smoked bacon scones to binchotan-lacquered monkfish, against terracotta accents and tiled walls.
The determinedly retro feel of the 37-room property comes out in the details: traditional keys rather than plasticky cards, and pull-chain lights outside each door...
At the table
Bartenders mix Experimental Cocktail Club recipes at the wood counter, pouring craft cocktails and natural wines beside street-facing windows.
How it began
The Experimental Cocktail Club founders launched their first bed-and-beverage hotel here in 2015 within a classic nineteenth-century Haussmannian corner building.
“The interiors exude designer Dorothée Meilichzon’s cosy, contemporary-retro style, with deep colours, bespoke mahogany furniture and quirky reminders of SoPi’s octagonal shape.”
