Cutting-edge design
Located in the Passy district on the Right Bank of the Seine, the Hotel Sezz is just 500 metres from the Eiffel Tower and close to the Trocadero. The Arc de Triomphe is within easy reach, along with the Place de l’Etoile.
The luxury Hotel Sezz enjoys world-wide acclaim as one of the ‘World’s 10 Hippest Hotels\' and the Times Online lists it in the ‘Top 10 Hippest Hotels in Paris’. Cleverly disguised behind its Art Nouveau exterior, guests are greeted with the ultra-modern interior from Philippe Starck’s protégé, Christophe Pillet. Colour schemes are simple and subtle, with sharp contrast in the touches of colour here and there. The boutique Hotel Sezz has done away with reception staff. Guests are greeted by a personal butler, who welcomes them with a drink and personally looks after them during their stay.
The 14 spacious suites and 13 guest rooms are a clever mix of sparkling chrome and leather; hard chrome tables compliment the soft red leather seating beneath the Mazzega chandeliers. The beds are also made of modern materials, adding to the minimalist design of the rooms. The spacious bathrooms all have a double Jacuzzi, which tempts guests to linger and relax. All rooms have air-conditioning, the latest TV and entertainment technology and WiFi internet connections.
This ultra-modern boutique hotel also features a small meeting room for business guests and a wonderful glass-domed breakfast room. Even the bar ‘La Grande Dame’ has its share of innovative design, with petal-shaped alcoves for intimate drinks in this, the first Veuve Cliquot champagne bar in Paris. Tours of the Veuve Cliquot cellars can also be arranged.
For a romantic break in one of the most talked-about design boutique hotels in Paris, the Hotel Sezz is the place for all hip young couples to stay.
