ACT I<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nA Confessional of Curiosity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Guests enter a \u201cconfessional of curiosity,\u201d the starting point of an initiatory journey into the senses and sensuality.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n
\n
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nFrom the very entrance, the building\u2019s historical references are laid bare: the tension between the sacred and the forbidden. Bathed in soft, muted light, the lobby serves as a transition from the outside world into the hotel, a threshold that transports guests into another world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the floor, a carpet patterned with serpents guides the guest deeper into the Boudoir des Muses. Symbolizing the Garden of Eden, it leads the way to the reception desk, crafted in marble and topped with a confessional grille. In front, a sofa with rounded, sensual forms welcomes visitors into a space that symbolically represents a purgatory, before finally stepping into the Boudoir des Muses proper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
ACT II<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nA Living Atrium<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Here, at the heart of the hotel, lies the creative cradle of sensual and artistic live performances.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\nCrowned by a magnificent glass and steel dome of the Directoire era, soaring 12 meters high, the atrium astonishes visitors and gives the space a truly unique character.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Around it, spiral walkways lead to the rooms and suites across five floors, historically designed as the original boxes for the live performances. Various symbolic details are scattered throughout the space; not immediately apparent, they create an atmosphere that is both mysterious and alluring. A wooden frieze running along the ceiling bears Latin inscriptions taken from the Apocalypse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tucked into alcoves, the softly provocative lounges and boxes line the atrium. On the floor, a graphic black parquet evokes the atmosphere of a Marais mansion, while a grand period wooden staircase ascends to the upper floors, leading to the rooms.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
ACT II<\/strong>I<\/p>\n\n\n\nA theatrical bar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Adjacent to the atrium, the bar, crafted in luxurious wood with flowing, rounded lines, invites guests into a more intimate and private atmosphere.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Behind the Bar, cleverly designed niches mimic stained-glass patterns, housing a carefully curated wine and spirits collection. The bar is crowned with a fringed chandelier that dramatizes the space with a play of light, while a marble patchwork frieze on the floor accentuates the bespoke furniture.<\/p>\n<\/div> <\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
In this cozy, intimate setting, guests can enjoy a playful snacking menu that reflects the contrasts and duality of the space : hot and cold, cooked and raw – through a curated selection of shareable plates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Seated comfortably at the bar on tall velvet stools, guests sip on reimagined spritzes (made with melon liqueur and jasmine infusion) and other signature cocktails, both with or without alcohol, bearing the enchanting names of muses and goddesses. Presentation takes center stage, with service rituals imbued with mystery, designed to delight and surprise visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
ACT IV<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nMonk-inspired rooms<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Accessed via winding corridors, the 28 rooms (from 13 to 25 m\u00b2), including 4 suites (38 m\u00b2), embrace a more minimalist d\u00e9cor with soft, organic materials and light tones : creating a striking contrast with the darker, more mysterious common areas. The inviting design encourages relaxation, featuring plush bedding, colorful accent cushions, cream velvet curtains, and boucle wool seating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Each bed is adorned with a portrait of a woman : the \u201cguardians of the temple.\u201d These muses, each with her own distinct character, infuse the spirit of the space.<\/p>\n\n\n
\n
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n Some rooms feature period wooden colonnades, reflecting the 18th century heritage architecture of the building, while others open onto views of the Parisian rooftops. Nestled under the mansard roofs, The Apartment, spanning 72 m\u00b2 and accommodating up to six guests, is a true cocoon. Exposed beams, warmed by vintage rugs, along with a sofa bed and two double beds, create a cozy atmosphere. The apartment also includes a shower and bathtub, and offers a sweeping view of the Atrium.<\/p>\n\n\n

ACT V<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nTimeless Bathing Salons<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Located on the lower floors, two private bathing salons complete the experience, immersing guests in a truly unique atmosphere. The first salon features a stone-carved pool and a hammam, while the second, distinguished by its emerald-green palette, is equipped with a jacuzzi and sauna. Both spaces are designed as softly lit bathing salons, dedicated to relaxation and bodily pleasures, offering a jacuzzi, double shower, sauna, bar, and vanity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
