Former annex of La Samaritaine, the hotel required a complete renovation in order to earn its five stars rating. A few steps from the Paris Opera, the hotel brings a touch of creativity to its 1917 facade. Its sophisticated 149 rooms and suites are designed by Charles Zana who was inspired by the 1930 Art Déco. He imagined each room as a Parisian apartment with balconies, studio windows and carefully selected works of art.
