Gault&Millau's review 2025

One of Paris’s best-kept secrets—and one of its most alluring spots as well. While guests love its Grand Siècle façade and ideal location (just a stone’s throw from the Comédie-Française and the Palais-Royal gardens), this haven also charms with its understated, timeless elegance, crafted by star designer Pierre-Yves Rochon. The lobby is adorned with sculpted busts paying homage to the nearby Louvre; there are 68 rooms and suites featuring thick carpets and light, airy color schemes, some with balconies offering panoramic views of the Paris rooftops; and the Café 52 restaurant, where Chef Maxime Raab serves up organic, balanced, and seasonal cuisine, served on the terrace overlooking the secluded Place de Valois. The Holidermie spa rounds out the experience with its two treatment rooms bathed in natural light, its star-lit hammam, its jacuzzi, and its fitness center. Together, these elements create a calm and serene setting—a rare find in the heart of the capital.
