Left Bank sanctuary
Tucked into a quiet corner of Place Saint-Sulpice, this townhouse feels like a private residence with custom scents and chequered marble.
“interiors by Jean-Louis Deniot are contemporary and bright, warmed by reclaimed wood tables, metallic sculptures…”

What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
The new Recamier is suitably small and intimate, to suit the neighborhood — there’s very little in the way of public space.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set directly on Place Saint-Sulpice, the hotel sits steps from Saint-Germain-des-Prés boutiques and a short stroll from the Luxembourg Gardens.
The rooms
Canopied beds with draped textured fabrics anchor the bedrooms, where upper floors look out across Parisian rooftops and church spires.
Treatments

How it began
Named after nineteenth-century literary salonnière Juliette Récamier, this former bourgeois family townhouse was revitalized into an intimate Left Bank hideaway.
