This intimate hideaway is located on a quiet street in Paris between the Latin Quarter and the boutique shopping district of Saint-Germain-des-Près. The hotel is close to the Jardin du Luxembourg and within easy reach of the Louvre, Notre Dame, the Seine and the Musée d’Orsay.
This unique hotel is ranked one of the best boutique hotels in Paris for those seeking an intimate place to stay with plenty of Parisian history and style. The charming Villa d’Estrees offers a personal warm welcome to this grand residence with just 10 guest rooms. Each double deluxe room (the most basic offered) truly lives up to its name with plenty of space, a comfortable sitting area and a desk. The king size beds are comfortable, with downy pillows and sumptuous bed linen. Satellite TV, Wi-Fi internet and air-conditioning complete the amenities of each tastefully decorated guest room. Reminiscent of the French empirical period, walls are covered with bold stripes in deep, rich colours and furniture has been hand selected from local antique shops.
The lobby cum breakfast room is a delightful area to read, meet up with new friends or just relax and enjoy the elegant Napoleonic-style décor. The continental breakfast is a delicious basket of pastries and breads from the local boulangerie, with cereal, yoghurt, fruit juice and strong French coffee. It represents excellent value for the small additional fee. The Café Latin is a typical bistro serving traditional French dishes amid wood panelled walls and louvered blinds.
This charming boutique hotel is in the historic 6th arrondissement. King Henry IV is said to have passed through the area in 1596 and declared “Here lies my heart”, and it is easy to see why. The character and charm of the area and the Villa d’Estrees itself make this an excellent place to stay for a romantic getaway or a longer vacation in Paris.
