HOTEL COSTES (Saint Honoré, Paris)

Hôtel Costes is Paris’ ultimate boudoir-style address — opulent, exclusive, and unapologetically glamorous. A celebrity magnet designed by Jacques Garcia, it pairs lavish, retro interiors with a legendary DJ-led bar scene, avant-garde dining, and a prime location steps from the Tuileries and the Louvre. A hotel in a class of its own.

Hôtel PARTICULIER Montmartre (Montmartre, Paris)

Hôtel Particulier Montmartre is a hidden Montmartre gem, once owned by the Hermès family. Surrounded by a 900m² Louis Benech garden, interiors by Pierre Lacroix blend opulent detail with warmth. Velvet-clad bars, light-filled salons, and five uniquely designed suites create an intimate luxury experience, complemented by French cuisine, cocktails, and seasonal garden concerts.

Maison Souquet (Montmartre, Paris)

Maison Souquet is a discreet 5-star Belle Époque hideaway near the Moulin Rouge. Once a pleasure house from circa 1900, it charms with velvet-clad rooms, 18th-century furnishings, Hermès toiletries, and romantic art. Hidden lounges, an Arabian Nights–inspired library, and a secret spa with pool and hammam make every stay magical, while its intimate location in Montmartre places Parisian nightlife and culture just steps away.

SAINT JAMES PARIS (Champs Elysées, Paris)

Saint James Paris is a château-style hideaway in the 16th arrondissement, exquisitely designed by Laura Gonzalez. Set in a former private mansion and members’ club, it boasts a grand staircase, a wood-paneled library bar, a bold-print restaurant, and 40 individually styled rooms featuring fabrics by Pierre Frey. The winter garden, complete with trellises and gazebo, is the perfect Parisian retreat for a leisurely afternoon.
