First 5-star hotel opens in Paris

The Hotel Paris Bastille Boutet has opened its doors in eastern Paris. An oasis of peace in the centre of the authentic Bastille district, and close to the Marais, Hotel Paris Bastille Boutet is the first 5-star hotel in eastern Paris.

Housed in a building that was formerly a joinery workshop and then a chocolate factory, known as “Maison Boutet” the property features exceptional views over the Parisian roofscape.

The hotel has 80 rooms and suites, 10 of them with balconies, on its 6 floors. In homage to its past as a place of craftsmanship, students from the Ecole Boulle were engaged to produce two signature suites, each with its own special atmosphere: the Ebony Suite plays with the theme of sensuality, with the juxtaposition of dark wood and velvet, whilst the Teak Suite reveals itself as a series of boxes defining the living
spaces and creating a most unusual cocoon.

At the heart of the hotel, the 150m² well-being space, drenched in light, will be dedicated to meditation and relaxation. The space features an indoor pool with resistance jets, a steam room, sauna and two luminotherapy showers.

The well-being menu includes stand-out items such as the signature invigorating cocoa oil treatment, with its antioxidant effects, and the massages and scrubs from the prestigious aromatherapy specialist Décléor.
