Conveniently situated off the Champs Elysees, this 19th-century building retains its elegant facade, combining it with a calm, sleek interior. Architect Suzel Brout oversaw a detailed renovation that converted the interior of an 1860 building into an up-to-date furnished hotel. Enter through the rich oak lobby which leads to the Italian bar and restaurant, Caffe Ristretto. Guestrooms are decorated in neutral earth tones. Stylish, modern furniture and clean lines of wood paneled cupboards provide a serene contemporary feel. Each room contains a close up reproduction of part of Leonardo da Vincis most famous lady, the Mona Lisa. You can get the complete picture at the nearby Louvre. Fauburg St. Honore, Arc de Triomphe, Toileries Gardens, theatres and shopping are within walking distance.
