    Nestled in the heart of the charming St Germain-Des-Prés district in Paris, the hotel stands as a beacon of elegance and sophistication. This boutique property offers an unforgettable experience for discerning travellers, combining classic Parisian charm with modern luxury.

    Neo Brasserie Dining at the Restaurant Les Parisiens:

    The hotel’s restaurant is a culinary haven, offering an innovative menu of both traditional and contemporary French haute-bistronomy.

    Under the leadership of well-known executive chef Thibault Sombardier, the restaurant boasts a selection of gourmet French dishes prepared with locally sourced, seasonal ingredients. From a succulent Filet de Bœuf Français to delicate Vol-au-vent << Paris – Deauville >>, each dish is a work of art that celebrates the rich flavours of French cuisine.

    The wine list is as impressive as any French “Grand Brasserie” and the cellar boasts options from many of the great French appellations, including iconic champagne brands, contemporary biodynamic wines and ‘straight from the cellar door’ listings.
