The Haussmannian building in which it sits is a classic, while its interiors are perhaps surprisingly contemporary — still Parisian to the core, but with a subtlety and a lightness that feels modern.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Stepping onto Place André Malraux puts the Palais-Royal gardens, the Comédie-Française, and the Louvre courtyard directly at your feet.
The rooms
High ceilings and soundproofed floor-to-ceiling windows frame direct views of the Louvre, the Comédie-Française, or quiet interior courtyards.
The gym
Cardio machines and free weights line the mezzanine, looking out through tall windows over Parisian streetscapes.
Dogs stay too.
Bar
L'Officine du Louvre
Botanical cocktails and afternoon tea are served beneath a restored nineteenth-century stained-glass dome.
Restaurant
Brasserie du Louvre - Bocuse
Paris's first Bocuse brasserie serves classic Lyonnais dishes beside windows looking toward the Palais-Royal colonnade.
At the table
Tables look out onto classical arcades for morning breakfast and Thursday evening apéritifs with live music.
How it began
Built in 1855 for the Exposition Universelle, the hotel later hosted Camille Pissarro, who painted eleven Parisian streetscapes from upper-floor windows.
