The hotel is a beautiful, quiet oasis in the heart of Batignolles. The staff were exceptionally professional and warm — especially Claire, the events manager, who guided us through every step of our event planning. I highly recommend it for a wonderful boutique stay or a small, intimate event with an exquisite Parisian vibe.

We could not have imagin...

We had a very nice dinner party for 5 last week. The waiter was extremely kind, the menu was diverse and the dishes were good. The decor is beautiful, the garden a gem in the middle of Paris. Keep going, do not change anything !
