All around is the bustle of historical, cultural and festive Paris: the Île de la Cité, the Louvre museum, the Quai de Seine, the most beautiful sights of Paris right to hand, with the boutiques, promenades, street cafés and museums. And joining the right bank to the left bank is the capital’s oldest bridge, the Pont Neuf.

With sixty rooms, restaurant, Spa, swimming pool, well-being space and tailor-made services, it proposes an innovative, chic and exclusive hotel concept.

The architecture was entrusted to Didier Beautemps andV aléria Sanchez at COS, and the interior décor to Alexandre Danan, European design Office Consulting, a harmonious duo who co-signed the project.
Built in 1866, before it was transformed, this building housed the headquarters of the Céline Couture House. It was important to respect the pervasive spirit of the place and the elegance of the Haussmann façade, paying careful attention to the lighting to create transparency, favor openings to the outside and create movement in a prism of undulations.
Everything evokes movement and travel in a place that lives in the spirit of the age, a world of refinement that is connected from the inside to the outside. Fluidity and dynamics fill the atmosphere for an unprecedented experience: you feel you are being welcomed in a private dwelling.
Among the sixty rooms divided into six different categories, the key principles governing fixtures & fittings are space and light. The simple lines are set off by excellent furniture, in the art deco style from Henryot & Cie and lights by Tom Dixon and DelightFULL.
