What they say
Also in Condé Nast Traveler and Wallpaper*.
The property has the benefits of a large hotel group – loyalty program, consistency in service, ample space – without necessarily feeling like one.
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Set on Rue René Boulanger, you are moments from the bustling République transit hub, Le Marais, and Canal Saint-Martin.
The rooms
Workshop-inspired layouts feature timber floors, glass-partitioned bathrooms, and curved capsule windows fitted with cozy reading nooks.
The baths
Black-and-white pixel mosaic tiles wrap the underground whirlpool, set beside a wood-lined sauna and steam hammam.
The spa and gym
Treatment rooms offer custom Sothys skincare rituals, and the adjacent fitness studio provides 24-hour cardio and strength equipment.
Dogs stay too.
Bar Le Martin
The faceted mirrored bar serves cocktails mixed with house-infused spirits, and the lounge hosts monthly rotating local art exhibitions.
Restaurant Martin Paris
The dining room serves seasonal French dishes and opens onto a leafy courtyard warmed by a stone fireplace.
At the table
A breakfast buffet spreads fresh croissants by the open kitchen, and barrel tables offer casual outdoor seating in the courtyard.
How it began
Built in the 1970s with a gunmetal silver facade, the nine-story block served as a traveling artists' squat throughout the nineties.
