Hotel Rochechouart is the go-to for people who like rooms that feel subtle, lived-in, and familiar to the moodboards they build their taste around.

The brasserie downstairs is where creative industry people always seem to be meeting someone or hosting something.
And it’s one of the more reasonably priced Festen-designed hotels—the Paris design duo behind art/fashion/design world favorites like Château Voltaire, Le Pigalle, and Hôtel du Couvent. Their take on the 1929 Art Deco building is subtle but visible in the brass, marble, staircases, and restored glass elevator
