Royal tennis court curio
A glass elevator climbs along exposed wooden beams in a former royal court filled with contemporary art and a classic billiards table.
What it’s good at
Remarkable
Paris's last surviving 1634 royal tennis court preserves listed seventeen-meter timber roof trusses and original masonry.
Notable
A dramatic glass elevator and open catwalks climb through a soaring atrium framed by seventeenth-century beams.
Listed
Set on Île Saint-Louis, serving morning baguettes and honey sourced from neighboring island artisan shops.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set along the quiet main thoroughfare of Île Saint-Louis, steps from Berthillon ice cream and the footbridges leading toward Notre-Dame.
The rooms
Rooms and duplexes surround the central atrium, pairing seventeenth-century timber trusses with Pierre Frey fabrics and marble bathrooms.
The spa and gym
In the vaulted stone basement, a Finnish sauna and Turkish hammam sit beside cardio machines.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Breakfast is served under rustic timber beams or out in the courtyard, followed by evening wine at the bar.
How it began
Built in 1634 under King Louis XIII, this is the city's last surviving indoor court for jeu de paume, or real tennis.
